Epiphany: a Poet In Love

Did Shakespeare ever fall in love?
A rose by any other name would 
stink as sweet!
What would Y'eshua say if indeed 
Magdalene was his favorite disciple?
What miracles would he impress her 
with
So as to savor her forbidden apple?
O woman!
Is that why god made you last of all 
nature's enviable beauty?
If before he said let there be light
You were the first thing his devine 
eyes saw
I bet creation would have been a 
different theory altogether.

If love at first sight was a figure of 
speech
Then I swear I love you like a 
metaphor
And your smile is a typo
They meant to say a simile
I will kiss your face like a blank page
And my lips will be the tip of my 
pencil
Drawing drooling hieroglyphs like 
the hand of god
Inscribing Ten Commandments of 
Love
On the tablets of your breasts
Because my name is Moses
A stammerer on a voyage to save a 
lonely soul
From the shackles of cynicism
On love affairs.

I would love to laugh while making 
rough love to you 
On the dark floor of my solitude cell
Where torn pages of amatuerish 
poems lay as a carpet
Because you are my words:

Maybe your face is the sky
And your eyes are the stars
Maybe your laughter is a symphony
Of a million harps from a million 
virgin angels

I have written about love a million 
times
And still you remain elusive
A mystery
Are you an acrostic;
So each letter tells your tale?
Maybe a couplet or limerick?
Are you a sonnet? Or a ballad? Or a 
metre without a rhyme?
Maybe you are a mere syllable I 
mumble at every sudden ******.
Your body is a symmetry of regular 
ryhthm
Consumate from five to seven
And back to five
Haiku:
Japanese poets should build a 
pedestal for you
And all lustful lads
Should come and slink the slank at 
your feet
Indeed lady,
Your gait and pride and smell of 
shaven armpits and eyeballs might 
make a eunuch have an ********
And that to me
Is amorous injustice!

Tell me,
What can a scribe do?
When all I write about is human 
weakness 
And wickedness?
When writing to me is an escape 
from adjectives I can't utter over a 
cup of coffee?
To me,
The strand of your hair alone
Deserves atleast umpteenth stanzas 
of praise
A prerequisite.

If I say I love you
Will you giggle at my palpability?
Why bore you with parables
When all you yearn for is a touch
And forever?

I will say no more.

Living and Leaving a Legacy

what will you be remembered for when you have passed away?
what do you think most people will probably have to say?
what things would you like to be most memorialized about?
what things about you would your friends and family shout out?
what have you accomplished in life? what good works and deeds have you done?
where you a devoted servant of God or a disobedient one?
what significant mark on this world do you hope to leave?
will there be anyone around who for you will mourn or grieve?
will you have touched any souls or enriched any minds?
what type of lasting and living legacy will you leave behind?
when it comes time to take that final ride in that black stretch limo
what of your life's accomplishments will you want people to know?
for as naked as the day that you first appeared on this earth
what bare facts do you wish people would remember about you first?

a lasting and living legacy, your entry in the book of eternal life
will it be a legacy as a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ
to have been a member of the family of the Most Holy Lord
to have been one who was called to come and get aboard
for you can't bargain, you can't scheme and to Him you cannot bribe
to have a place in God's heart where only truth and goodness reside
so as you travel your life's journey keep God always on your mind
don't sweat the small stuff not buy into the devil's lies

now turn to your sons, to your daughters, nieces and nephews
the future generation you need to reach out to
the children, the continuous legacy of our very lives
our children, the next generation of servants for Jesus Christ
introduce them to the Lord and leave a faith in them so strong
show them that your life was a living testimony to the Kingdom of which you belonged
let the children know that God has given them love, power and self-discipline
show them that there's nothing to fear but fear in the end
help them discover the gift to them that God did give
their true purpose, passion and destiny for which they should live
tell them that this faith has always been in your family
the inheritance of belief a lasting and living legacy
pass the baton of faith so your memory will keep on living
fan the flame of faith that which to you God has given
a strong belief system that you will  pass on down the line
by living and leaving a legacy that will be remembered for all time

It's Not Over Until It's Over

it's not over until it's over until God has His say
and it's not what it looks like until God has His way

when you look at a Pastor of anyone who's in service to the Lord God
you have no idea what they've gone through nor the things that weigh on their hearts
for it's not easy to be a true disciple and teacher of the Holy Word
it's not a walk in the park no matter what you have heard

King David was a true disciple, an anointed gift from God
he was a special type of man who possessed a contrite heart
he was given the huge responsibility of leadership over a nation
the people demanded much from him and had high expectations
a catastrophe occurred one day when all the women and children were taken
David's men were so grievously upset that they were physically shaken
they then became angry and bitter over what had gone down
they held David responsible and wanted to stone him into the ground
yet David himself lost two wives and he was also dismayed and discouraged
but as a true disciple of Christ he knew in God to be encouraged

David had a true calling, he was aware of his divine mission
he was appointed by the Lord God to take on the Great Commission
for whenever God has called on you 
there's not much that you can do
for you can't run and you can't hide from what of you God desires
and He'll equip you for the task by giving you all you'll need and require
and be you a Pastor, a disciple or a deacon and you feel you're at the end of your rope
encourage yourself in the promises of God and hold on to its hope

life may sometimes beat you up and knock you all about
but it's not over until it's over until God calls the final out
encourage yourself in the Lord and embrace His authority
you might be down to your last strike and He'll give you the victory
and even if the final bell has rung
it ain't over until God says its done
and even when you're down to your last shot
it ain't over until God says it's not
and even if it's fourth and long yet you can see the goal
trust in God to make the completion for He's in total control

it's not over until it's over not even when the fat lady starts to sing
as the Lord Our God has the last word when it comes to everything
the buzzer might have sounded, the clock has run out and you're down to the final play
but it's not over until it's over as long as God has something to say

Premium Member The Now Continuum

“since thoughts speak in past tenses,
drop mind, rely on senses,
embracing and releasing,
pain pangs and pleasure pleasing” ~ Unseeking Seeker 

The sun
w a n e s into the saline swell,
and the ether
undresses corseted ruminations,
while heart follows formless flames
illuminated with flares of
frankincense forgiveness
as mind replays recurring regrets
like vinyls~
spinning forlorn runes
laced with fallacious fragments,
clouding the intricate cycle of lunar~
intuitions with illusive riddles,
  drifting into the eventide of agony…

So I drink and I dine
from the hyacinth hands of
the golden chalices
brimming with turmeric tranquility,
listening ~ in sync ~
with the soul of sanguine stillness
ricocheting with rustling repose,
erasing cracked crevices
heavy with ache
from soft smears of monarch-bliss strokes,
spilling picturesque pigments of peace
from Mona Lisa musings
  to veil visions of vanity,
  to mask mirrors of melancholy,
  to soften scarlet streaks of sorrow…

Tonight I close the portals
of perplexed perceptions,
unlocking the crown chakra
like forgotten forests
glowing with faith and fireflies,
allowing stars to glaze
my inner psyche
with dusts of glistening gratitude,
fine-tuning the symphony of Kundalini 
to musical mists of mindfulness,
cloaked in 
crystalline clovers of clarity~
like an awakened fairy
flipping leaves of lotus love,
pausing the pulse of pain
beneath an empyrean embellished
with spiritual elixirs,
detached from darkness,
clinging neither to
the seraphic scriptures
nor the egoistic galaxies,
sprinkling superficial sparkles
of material mantras.
As enlightened ink r e m a i n s
reliving ~ sewn into the 
seams of sacredness
like endless rivers rippling with
   opalescent quiescence…

O divine almighty,
I vow to sow herbs of harmony,
engrossed in the timeless phase
of rose-wine twilight~
untangling twisted tulips
intertwined with
weathered willows.
As I seek nothing but lucid light,
soaked in petrichor musings,
resting in zealous zenith,
for I am a rhymeless disciple
accepting the reality
that kissed the silk of silhouette
amidst rain and warmth~
the celestial peaks of change.
I taste flavors of kismet,
swallowing spices of lament,
comfortably composed
in the mystical essence
              of soundless rhythm…

Premium Member Eddie Mars and the Solar Winds

EDDIE MARS AND THE SOLAR WINDS

The biggest band in Lisburn and fronted by Eddie Mars
A guy who could play anything, on his collection of guitars
On vocals, Charlie Venus, who was the joker in the pack
He played his fender tele' through a great big marshall stack
On bass was Johnny Neptune, with his yellow platform shoes
He harmonized on vocal, a disciple of the blues
The keyboards were delivered, by Hector Mothership
He worshipped things electrical, and loved the microchip
Ray Uranus kept the beat and he wore a bowler hat
Sure only a crazy drummer, would adopt a name like that

They played all over Britain, with their rockin lunar style
They sold out gigs in Wigan, they were lauded in Millisle
Their stage show was fantastic, with a massive lighting rig
A spaceship and some planets, lit the stage at every gig
That grew a loyal fan base, as they played across the land
They lived a life of excess, just like any touring band
Success soon followed in their wake, awards came thick and fast
And very soon the space machine, had an ever growing cast
Five young lads from Lisburn, fifty people in their crew
An entourage of strangers that they never even knew

Five big trucks, a fleet of cars, a chopper and two planes
A man to do the finance, who didn't even know their names, 
Still, fashions change, the sales dried up, the audience died away
And soon there were no big crowds, to watch the five lads play
Their last gig at the Ulster hall, was an evening to forget
Out of tune, and full of beer, as they stumbled through the set
And things got pretty messy when accountants came to call
They had no cash, they had no rights, seems their manager had it all
Their luck ran out, the band where broke, they had to end the show
They had to sell up everything, the spaceship had to go

Ray could never come to terms, with all the hurt and pain
He took some drugs and alcohol, he just never woke again
Hector went to college and he earned a top degree
And now he is the I.T guy in a light bulb factory
Johnny is the local star, who likes to talk about his fame
He tries to pull the young girls, and dine out on his name
Charlie lost his family, when the alcohol took hold
He shelters in the hostels when the weather gets too cold
Eddie left the country, when it all became too much
He now lives in Australia, but he never kept in touch

Taking Our Brothers Back To Eden

in order to get back to Eden to live on top of the world
there are a few things from God which need to be heard

here in America in the democratic land of milk and honey
African-Americans are disproportionate when it comes to power and money
our healthcare is poorer, our finances worse, few of us in seats of power
at the bottom of most demographic indicators and our circumstances diminish by the hour
the most unemployed, the most discriminated, the first to be laid-off or dismissed
more of us in jail, a lot of us illiterate, there are too many problems for me to list
fewer marketable skills, fewest high school diplomas and don't mention college degrees
African-American men in America need to take off their blinders and see
to those who stand behind stained-glass windows and look down on those who have less
you need to take your brothers back to Eden and put an end to all this mess
you might not comprehend their reality but you should attempt to understand
that as true servants of God you should help your fellow man

if you consider yourself to be a true disciple of Christ
what have you done to enrich someone else's life?
who did you clothe? who did you feed?
who did you minister to in their time of need?
who did you mentor to on how to be a man?
who did you talk to or stretch out your hand?
there's a lot of work that needs to be done to get our brothers inspired
we need to help them build a relationship with God and do as Jesus aspired

in order to get back to Eden we need to start at the very beginning
with the basic instructions that God is recommending
to fellowship with your fellow man
to develop a trust opposite to slavery's plan
to communicate with positivity
to no longer promote negativity
to pull up your pants and walk like a man
to be productive and not destructive
to be supportive and not abortive
to act like someone's father and not like you're being bothered
to teach our brothers to put down the guns and take up the cross
so they will no longer act like thugs but to think like a boss
no longer will we be divided with jealous envy 
now united as brothers under God's authority
getting back to Eden to be on top of the world
to living our lives according to God's Holy word
to get back to Eden and up from the basement of life
living on top of the world as brothers with our savior Jesus Christ

Earth's Tragic Events

Earth's Tragic Events 


Earth's tragic events 
Seem to crawl upon us, 
Anniversaries of deadly happings 
Spread across our atlas. 

Today marks an anniversary 
Of the San Francisco earthquake, 
It happened back in 1906 
The earth did violently shake. 

The Titanic was deemed "unsinkable" 
By her brave Captain, 
Hit an iceberg off the coast of Newfoundland 
Her maiden voyage, came to an end. 

The sister ship to the Titanic 
Met her bitter end too, 
Named "Gigantic," renamed "Britannic" 
Struck a mine, sank, she was also subdued. 

Then there was air disasters 
The Hindenburg, should be mentioned, 
Caught fire in mid air 
The sky that fateful day, was blackened. 

We have also been through 
Two deadly World Wars, 
Many people killed along the way 
Something, the world couldn't ignore. 

Earthquakes and hurricanes 
Are to blame too, 
Lives lost and still remembered 
This world needs to be rescued. 

Nuclear power plants 
Blowing up and spreading deadly gases, 
Twenty years ago today, it happened 
People are still suffering in masses. 

People following a person 
Whom claimed he was Jesus' disciple, 
Murdered innocent women and children 
Thought he was the King of his castle. 

A building blown up and defaced 
By two insane people, 
Small children in kindergarten perished 
This world holds a hateful burden. 

Kids taking guns to school 
Thinking they're all that, 
Killing fellow students and people who teach 
Please, it's finally time to throw in the hat. 

Planes crashing through buildings 
By terrorists filled with hate, 
A President fighting a battle for his father 
Another war, it did create. 

Bombs being placed on buses 
Watch restaurants and skies ignite, 
People's lives being short-lived 
Relatives filled with fright. 

Subways and trains being blown 
All to kingdom come, 
Lives being destroyed and ripped apart 
This violence isn't welcome. 

The ground shakes 
Beneath the feet of miners, 
Explosions and lives quickly taken away 
Families filled with anger. 

When will the hurting stop? 
We all drop to our knees, 
All we want in the world 
Is human kindness and a lot of PEACE.

I know I probably left a lot of things out, but I wrote about the events that tore my heart in two.

Today is true as any other, that Christ's sacrifice is the only truth that proclaims victoriously, 
the deliverance of eternal death, my only means of salvation, for him willingly embracing 
God's wrath, and receiving the punishment of my sins, as a warrior he faced death.
Asking forgiveness for the ones, who greedily tortured and mortally wounded,but in all this 
he had control, His life was freely given.
An insurmountable sacrifice, the KING of KING'S has risen! and into me he so humbly 
brought, the embrace of his perfect love and attention, even though my self-induced lusts 
after sin. have removed me so far from God's perfect will, leaving me completely depraved, 
bruised, and hopelessly broken.
Please God forgive this blatant sinner, the wounds i've endured i'm so ashamed, have all 
been self-inflicted.
Please God wash me new, in the blood of your son Christ Jesus, placing me as a new 
creation in the body of Christ, when truly i've earned God's judgement and wrath.
Praise and glory always be to the one, he conquered death and gave me a new life, he freed 
me from myself, and from eternal damnation, he offers the gift of deliverance, how can i be 
so ungrateful as to continue in my sin?
And yet you pour out your perfect love, grace and mercy, and discipline me when i need it, 
and i am so eternally grateful, because without you life is darkness into which i wish i was 
never created, but all things through you there is victory, so glory and power, and praise be 
to you, you've delivered delivered me from death.
You picked me up and brushed me off, and told me "it would be o.k., but if i followed you i 
would endure hate and persecution, for proclaiming your salvation.
But hey if God's got your back, your a Warrior of Victory, His light destroys all fear, there is 
nothing that man can do to rip God's love away", your KINGDOM come, your WILL be done, 
on EARTH as it is in HEAVEN.
Make me your disciple, because removed from you i am openly wicked, self absorbed, drug 
induced, a pitiful abomination.
All power praise and eternal glory, i am forever grateful, though i constantly stumble, may i 
humbly repent in the name of your only begotten son, CHRIST JESUS.
Your indescribable gift to spend eternity with you, under your perfect rule, praise be to God 
for your free gift of salvation.

Premium Member return of the butterflies

My muse is a poetic flower garden,
blooming lilacs in barren meadows,
but I still remember 
how I heeded haunting heartbeats
in paradise, whilst praying 
for your lustrous light,
to descend onto my hazy horizons.

Your eyes like captivating sunsets,
made me dream away, 
recalling shells lost in a forgotten 
coral reef, castaway upon 
an elusive island,
where the paths have no name,
but the oceanic breeze 
      calls yours so softly.

I was killing time, 
                 scribbling elegies
on distant musical shores,
where spotted eagle rays
and flying fish were my only mentors.
Nocturnal reef sharks unfolded tales
beneath lonesome skies,
illustrating a secretive stairway
that would lead me
           to the scintillating stars.

Deep within my heart, 
I knew in the darkest 
night you are the light
that would illuminate 
my breathless sighs
with blazing ballads 
      rewriting my fate, 
            reawakening my 
need to thrive through these 
endless melancholic monsoons;
surfing through vast oceans.
Your cosmic radiance pulled 
this chocolate mermaid,
from the bioluminescent 
ripples of sorrow,
empathising with 
      endless streams from
my volcanic mind 
and harmonious heart,
which was in dire 
need of healing,
from draconian depleted 
ideologies imprinted within 
a labyrinth of
          narcissistic daffodils,  
emanating deceptive fragrances
resembling the devil's disciple,
claiming me as nothing,
but a mere self
confessed queen
on a conquest to conquer
the uncontrollable calling 
to a land of virtual hypocrisy.

If only they knew
I no longer desired 
to rule a kingdom of 
    tumultuous pretense.
I was waiting for the 
return of the butterflies,
tearing apart the fragile 
       walls of its cocoon.

I knew if Romeo did not die,
I would be living Juliet's desires.
I was a poetess 
         searching for 
a purpose,  with no sense 
to shelter,   watching the 
last icicle 
        of winter melt away.

Truth deserves a narrative 
that has no ending,
though I question the universe.
Where do the 
     lost poets reside? 
Is it where the 
moon chooses to hide,
disguising dreariness 
within dazzling blankets 
of dancing moonscapes,
or will this be how 
this sleepless soul
seizes its faultless lunar tide?

O Butterfly

O Butterfly 

O butterfly 
Oh beautiful fly 
After 
Gently touching my cheek 
And kissing on my lips
Looking deep into my eyes
Planting a tree of life
In my heart
Filling the essence of beauty 
In my mind
Making me a philosopher 
Making me a diehard lover
Making my eyes blind
And you escaped into the place
Which is nowhere in this world.
Is it fair dear?
How can and where can I search you?

Didn’t I sacrifice my life 
For your love?
Didn’t I give you my heart 
To you?
Didn’t I make you queen of 
This universe?
Didn’t I make you an angel 
And worship you with my
Devotion?
Didn’t I light the lamp with 
Sparkles of your beauty?
Didn’t I make you the light
In this dark life
And didn’t I make you my spouse
Of my life?
Didn’t I make you as my path 
To the salvation 
And didn’t I lead a life of solitude
With your invisible companion?
Despite I’m doing the meditation
Of love
Why don’t you show you up to me
And why do you play hide and seek
With this ages aged man?

This life ends in a while 
This light goes off in a short while
Then can I search you 
In this vast universe 
And how can I identify you
Among those stars 
Sparkling in the sky?

How can I catch you up
And I can’t lose you by born again
Into this world of death.
May be I lose you because of my 
Depravity 
And I may lose you forever for my 
Injustice to you
I’ m so much afraid of.

O darling!
Don’t you pardon me 
And will you not show mercy upon me?
Don’t you please approach me
And hug me and absorb me
And dissolve me in your love
And merge me into your heart
With your embrace
And don’t you make me empty 
And fill me in your existence
And 
Don’t you make me nucleus 
Of every atom of your
Substance? 

I wrote so many letters to you
With my poetry 
In all the languages 
And no language is left in this 
Universe. 
My eyes are dried up.
My thoughts are exhausted 
And my mind is just empty 
Seeking you to fill in.
I have no time to pray for you
As the time is over for me.
I surrounded you as ether 
Emptiness 
As unexplainable feeling 
And as an infinite being.

I’m so much prepared to be 
Occupied by you 
And waiting in the depth of
My heart to be unified with you.

With divine love
Your disciple
