Swing Sets and Jungle Gym

When, while a father with two young girls,
ah charming children indeed
both wrapped around mine middle finger,
whose playful rebukes
this papa did heed
(who wished for a son),
he never did breed)
aplomb (fig your at Tivoli) found me

taking their fruitful lead
apple lee going bananas acceptable
mischievous behavior harmless misdeed
from this grown man,
sir render ring self to land
flat on me bum
as if drunk from mead
where playfulness my creed

years ago that streamed
by at lightspeed,
I experienced a
manifest destiny that freed
Aladdin side me, those decades,
sans long gone fatherhood
plus roles he learned to succeed
recalling catfights ('twixt

daughters) he refereed
who cherished those
offspring, he did seed
reckons adult opportunity
gifted yours truly mentoring
with excellence they did excede
to let loose once, and always frightened lad,
healthy development anxiety did impede

his spontaneity damned and leveed,
thus renaissance awoke to relive boyhood,
and prior to parenthood,
would be less apt to concede
how natural to bond with progeny
fostered by being keyed
into esprit de corps of biological charges,
now grown without need,

nor want of this
sudden embarrassment person,
whose absence in mein kampf did bleed
unstaunched sadness till affixing
available spare time with books to read,
and poems to write attempting to feed
an errant stray tear every now and again,
more pronounced as father time guaranteed

begetting precious bundles of joy,
how pedestrian days of yore like a tumbleweed
rocketed them thru preschool, kindergarten...
high school, college now this doddering
doth oft attempt (with futility) to reach them...
even cherished memories insync 
with Jack and Jill Truck klaxon dost recede.

Premium Member Blasphemer's Lament

why do so many humans elect to be tended and herded like sheep?

should path to salvation require forfeiting self-determination?

long have golden trim and precious jewels reigned at altars of worship

why do such all powerful gods require so many interpreters?

does enlightenment entail shedding logic and credibility?

nothing's holy about misogyny, bigotry and genocide

what type of belief system relies on second-hand information?

when did blatant hypocrisy and greed become a religious creed?

why do self-proclaimed, loving benefactors require blind allegiance?

accept these articles of faith which are beyond any criticism

should a fixed object of belief be based upon mere speculation?

doesn't require a divine being to do right by humanity

shall continue to choose to believe in that which consciousness reveals

Escaping Reality

I’m too tired to tell another story 
About the pangs of reality 
of my barricading delusions 
and my spontaneous God given days 

A long wait ;A fat fate
A nine day wonder that forever lay in yonder.
I’m bled out of verve ;high on adrenalin 
I hated narcissism ,ignored individualism. 

Am losing my creed hard as it seems,
No need for innuendos and cover ups
No gimmickry no false flags  
I believe in theocracy,oneness of the most high.

I have been punched and bruised 
Dead beaten and Ill stricken.
I've been a witness to sordid days 
Happy years and bonfire nights 

I once asked Santa for maiden 
He told me " dude lets be serious"
I won't even bother Cupid 
That naked winged baby wielding weapons 
who even crowned him an angel ?

I've breached the rules 
Threshed on everything with a head full of pain 
Tried singing when broken 
Only to realise my voice is even worse than my problems  

In my fantasies I probed for honesty ,
Paraded with veracity.
But bliss is not a thing life guarantees 
And I know this is how life in its entirety goes.

My imaginings are wilder, 
Might soon catch a banshee 
My nostalgias are inconsistent ,
And My health is really getting better 
Will someday soon sky dive in Ghana 
Or yet still rally on the Savannah 

I sought levity in the midst of debacles
Only to find fury in endless spirals.
I stumbled on a prose
Lo! let me sip on its sweetened repose.

In my hands a pen a paper 
so I can write away my woes.
recite it like a rhapsody or sing it like a hymn 
As a form of consolation,An escape from reality.

If Time Stood Still


If time stood still, paused the ceaseless chase,
If life were freed from each mundane, mad race,
Imagine kindness spanning every shore,
And hearts embracing all—feel rich or poor.

But wars ignite with fury, dark and deep,
With chemical, disease, and weapons that weep;
Our leaders hold us captive in their schemes,
While innocent souls shatter fragile dreams.

Yet peace and harmony could reign instead,
With love and laughter lifting every head;
A final dance beneath the twilight’s dome,
Where mercy finds its ever-lasting home.

If time stood still, a brighter dawn we’d see,
When hate dissolves and hope is bold and free;
Equality and kindness fill each place—
A gentler world for every creed and race.

You say Hi I say Goodbye to AI



Well hard as they might fight and try

So tight are rarely barely getting by

Sigh jobs squarely unfairly go to AI

Picked nicked then flicked on the sly

No sorrow poor borrow more to buy


Tricked by CGI lie from a cloudy sky

Social media spy pigs in the Tech sty

Future can’t deny no one gets a bye

Suitor will be AI then humans will defy


Pyrrhic critics decry but it is do or die

Titans fight for their piece of the pie

White collar all about the dollar guy

Dash for stash of cash ultimate high


Purloining while just coining on the fly

Spend as know the end is almost nigh

Flash rash brash greed splash they ply

Keys for wheeze must seize or will pry


Happens so fast they have cast the dye

Command it’s about demand & supply

Sycophant pant a creamy dreamy chai

Ego blast will last with your past will vie


Perverse creed gets worse this the storm's eye

Sow the seed impede our swede teed up & fry
 
Won't conform will curse why must I lie with AI

Plead don’t need IT to perform bellow thy lullaby

No go slow mellow Hello but a wry dry Goodbye

You will own nothing and be happy

In the age of the 4IR, they say,
"You will own nothing and be happy,"
Cryptos, NFTs, shares, and memecoins, the array.
We chase dreams of wealth, oh so snappy.

But hope is what keeps us alive,
Believing in the promise of a golden tide.
Bitcoin soaring, dreams to thrive,
Past gains, future, we can't abide.

Regulations tighten, wallets under siege,
Our tokens held, a false reprieve.
One day we'll wake, portfolio's gone, no intrigue,
Laws protect, leaving us to grieve.

Who are they, you ask?
Those as greedy as we,
Same vision, same task,
Platforms profit, while we plea.

Central banks, remember them well,
Fractional reserves, their tale to tell.
Crisis caused, they cast their spell,
Forcing servitude, in their cartel.

R350 for SASSA, a pittance indeed,
Maize meal and fleeting need.
In the 4IR, it's a dire deed,
Using what we have, our only creed.

Young girls to OnlyFans, a somber plight,
Selling souls for a bite.
Survival's grip, oh so tight,
In this harsh, relentless fight.

MLMs promise, dreams unfulfilled,
Dog-eat-dog, hopes distilled.
Hard work, simply billed,
For survival, hearts chilled.

One day, we'll own nothing, it's true,
And maybe, just maybe, find happiness anew.
But today, in this relentless view,
Stay woke, lest they ensnare you.

Stay woke they will catch you sleeping 

You will own nothing and be happy

The Deafening Colours

"The Deafening Colours"



Silence is the killer.
Never
the winner.

True power and control
possessed by the strident
voices of Courage 

to be different - 

through Unity, 
reveals 
the deafening colours 

Soul Sovereignty 
arrives ascending 
through equality

Loud and vibrant
becomes Peace,
The Real Revolution

(LadyLabyrinth / 2020)





"I have a dream 
that one day this nation will rise up, 
live out the true meaning of its creed:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident,
 that all men are created equal." 
Dr Martin Luther King

Fatima Shines Faithfully

Mellifluous musk exudes her every facette of sentience
     A mosque’s dome protects and shelters a loving embrace
          Compound eyes watch over a union made in spiritual sanctuary

Fatima knows and exchanges her vow with Fiona Peace be with them and with all

Not gold they seek just love in every aspect of body mind and tolerant essence

Patina green and humble reflects from a church of fruition 
     When the chakra of love transcends religion with ancient tutelage
	     Colour gender and creed do not matter when lips meet their oyster

A kiss for freedom a touch of their hands a ring of souls and tender caress

Sweet perfume and pheromones mingle with literate books of all times

Premium Member The Day Our Moon Turned Red

Someday in the future
Our moon will turn red
Raped and stripped
And left for dead

For in her core
Is the need for humans to survive
But the greed of us
She will never revive

These actions of us
Will resonate through universe worlds
Where we will be tagged and flagged
As totally absurd

We managed to escape 
The year 2012 
We are now about to be 
Cast and shelved

Many years ago
We had the chance to repent
But where ever we went
We destroyed and left spent

Who ever is left
From our human race
Will have nowhere to go
To ever show face

As out there, their are
Other races of creed
Much different from us
The perfect seed
