Premium Member OF HEARTS AND MINDS

Hearts cultivate love,
Minds tend to cultivate war;
War fruits are bitter:-
Let hearts cultivate sweetness,
Producing ripe fruits of peace:-
 
                  2
While you’re sitting there with mind and heart,
And thinking just what it is you need to do,
Let you mind freely enter into your heart,
And do what it is that it must now do
Yes, let it go right into your heart,
And get to evicting all that agonizing bull stuff,
Inviting God’s Son to be chief permanent resident;
Now just sit there  in that new loving rhythmic heartbeat-

Know now, henceforth, and forevermore,
That where Jesus and His love reside
Satan’s debilitating waring hate can
Never, in that new heart, abide:-


Premium Member Person of the Forest

Man is evicting us from our home the cry of the wilderness
endangering the very life cycle of nature itself
Look us in the eyes and clearly see the heart's you starve
money before profit is all you care about in this plantation
Human development has become this self serving mass suicide
where green house gasses is ripping down these forests
and certain boundaries are crossed on more ways than one
We need to rescue God's animals from doom
legal protections need to be put in place
as this is worse than the flood destroying what Noah saved
Those self serving in charge are destructive in every shape and form to be explained
we will need to urgently raise awareness about their plight.
hope has become a challenged word so to speak shepherded on this subject
The smart thing to do is save our planet

To Bear Witness

To Bear Witness

To bear witness … and awaken the world … he’ll rise:
Helpless to halt routine horrors he’s seeing,
A scared, adolescent boy of slender size,
Nabbed and dehumanized solely for “being”,
Keeps records of the cruelty his captors devise.

Yesterday once stayed his tenacious tenant of time,
Occupying today in recurrent roles of reprise,
Until death voided its lease, evicting crisis from crime.

Exiled to sight and sound, languages always languish:
Lone words, limited mediums too dull and shallow,
Impaired all the expressions of their author’s anguish,
Except to press, “What shall humanity hold hallow?”  

Woven together, his words threaded truths for which he fought,
Iterating a haunting testimony of torment.
Emancipated prose, sprung from his mind’s prison distraught, 
Sew our human bond on basted seams of past and present:
Empathy must be a measure of our moral fitness
Lest we lose lessons taught by he who lived … to bear witness!

Premium Member Acts of Random Kindness

"Acts of random kindness," is currently a catch phrased being promoted both on conventual as social media.  Other  popular phrase are,  "neighbor helping neighbor, helping hands and we are all in this together."  Sounds like it is popular today for secular culture to be following in the foot steps of Jesus Christ.

He told his faithful flowers to be kind and gentle to one another.  His famous new commandment, "Love one another as I have first loved you."  And, "Love you your neighbor as yourself." He instructed his followers to kind and generous to those in need. 

Jesus Christ was against sexual, race and social barriers.  Frequently running into conflict with both the religious and specular.  He was a social revolutionary. He wanted to change the cultural norms of his day.  And create a better and more humane society and world to live in.  Would he believe in Black Lives Matter? Absolutely! He was very vocal about racial injustice in any form.  Would he join peaceful protests! Absolutely and he would lead them himself.

Would he stop landlords from evicting widows and orphans? Of course he would. Would he forgive a man or a woman caught in the acts of adultery? Of course he would with the admonition.

"Woman where are your accusers?  She replied no where at all. "Neither do I condemn you go and sin no more."

Jesus Christ not only had the power to heal people. He had the authority to forgive  them as well. Frequently healing on the Jewish Sabbath Day.  Jesus Christ committed several acts of random kindness contained in the four gospels of the Holy Bible. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. I highly recommend reading the Bible for yourselves beginning with the gospel of John.

Love in Christ Jesus!

Someday Soon

Someday soon I'll run out, 
Of all my "give it one more tries".
Someday soon I won't believe, 
In all your pretty little lies. 

Someday soon this love for you, 
Like a flower will wilt and die.
Someday soon I'll break these chains,
And leave you here to cry.

I've cried myself to sleep it seems, 
Like a 100 thousand years. 
I could easily fill the Atlantic Ocean, 
With all my undried tears.

Did you really not see, 
The pain you were inflicting?
My soul is now completely broke, 
So your hurt I am evicting.

You made me believe without a doubt,
In all your broken dreams.
But I have yet to see you fulfill
Any of your lousy schemes.

I stood up for you and had your back, 
When everyone turned away.
But now my love is fading fast, 
Don't know what else is left to say.

I know you must've meant well, 
But now you've completely changed.
I have to go and leave you here, 
Now that my priorities rearranged.

Please don't you worry about me, 
I will make it out just fine.
You can't have what's left of me,
God said, " Nope! She's all mine!"

Someday soon My God will heal, 
Every single broken piece.
He will refill my faith in love, 
So my heart will find relief. 

I'm still praying for you daily, 
Cause that's what I'm lead to do.
Forgiveness & a Greyhound bus,
Will move me far away from you.


Light Lettered Laughter

The essence of wit is brevity
which interestingly evinces chivalry
delivered verdict to hex hoar size 
   (once and for all) president 

   dons mantle of deviltry 
and trumps constitutional credo 
defining American elementary
particular edicts denoting, enshrining, 
   framing, grand honorable inalienable rights

when foolhardy lobbyists prevail 
   evicting execrable“enemy” 
i.e. forward thinking (progressively liberal) 
   which subsequently might help 

   timid citizens to invoke probate, procure, produce cojones 
   in opposition against rabidly power hungry, 
   misogynistic courting among the body politik 
   fostering future feverish fortuity,

toward risking life and limb sans 
   Uncle Sam selfless gratuity
(especially as Benjamin Button syndrome – 
   reverses aging process

   acquired thru heredity 
gets in full swing) stamping mindset 
   nonestablishmentarian identity 
with my Kosher blessing despite any infamy

permission to go ahead with jocularity
from a superstar coach named Kennedy
thereby garnering homespun liberty
where icon bank on direct

with unrolled Scottish grandeur 
   (Pomp and  Circumstance broadcast)
   synchronized with precise 
   unrolled welcome mat
   yule receive granted “FAKE” feted soiree

as curtain call doth close toward 
   final decade of mortality 

yet dismiss bing hash-tagged 
   a scofflaw at any opportunity
especially if legislated mandate 
   earmarked as priority

in tandem with the key quality 
apothegm stipulates decrease sing sanity
as the hands of father time 
   spin (Doktor Dude Little) backward 
   away from present day turbidity 
increasing revanchism uber victory.

Sentiment

Suprise surprise ....empathise with a sadist

Draggin emotion through joy consumed rages

So while fear&envy enjoy there true places

Contempt coils around paranoias two faces

True shame is guilt ... pride is living arrogant

And Taking pleasure out of all the embarrassment

 Anger management loaded with sympathy

Where hatred can only find hope in hostility

Or grief in euphoria but jokers are killing me

With a token of civility behind an arrogant threat

By harbouring infamy while evicting respect 

Display no remorse , and never live with regret

Ya feelin me yet ? Lifes an Emotional wheel of roulett 

What ever u put into it is all u ever gonna get 

Now that's a pestilent sentiment

Premium Member Introspection Dissection

I awoke in horror
as I was under anesthetic
and meant to be unconscious.
I was a whirling floating spirit
flying over my own body.
I was in shock as I realized I was the surgeon
with scalpel and retractor in hand,
about to introspect and dissect
the faults and problems within my own inner self.

First, I spied the benign pile of regrets,
in the form of gall stones in the spleen and gall duct.
One wave of the zapper smashed my lingering regrets to sand.
Now they could no longer block my way of evicting
spleen and bile which clogged my life.

Secondly, I spied the grudges forming cataracts on the eyes.
My vision on crutches, clouded by grudges left unresolved.
Baring those grudges I had borne for so long
allowed me to forgive and forget their origin.
There is no point in letting old grudges cloud your vision.

Thirdly, I spied how unkempt and disheveled I looked.
My self-esteem needed a steam clean and shake up.
It was time I started looking after myself properly.
I got to work with a make-over to make
my self-image the best that it could be.
Hair cut, new clothes, new posture and gait
Topped off with a sunny smiling disposition
and joie de vivre glow and aura.

With that my introspection and dissection was complete.

Tears

The angels from heaven sprinkle the tears from high; they fall as dew on the earth,
Tears that came from the heart, tears collected from birth.
Through the fits of joyful laughter, to the sobbing of heartache and pain,
They roll down the cheeks, only to be gathered up by the same angels again.

Emotions are the only instigators, in evicting the heavenly dew,
They show the intensity of love, and the hatred when love is through. 
Sadness holds the heart to ransom, like a chill turning the drops to frost,
When a loved one has passed on, their partner is left numbed and lost.

However, as the sun warms up a brand new day, and time moves on for a while,
The pain begins to float away; with pleasant thoughts turning sadness into a smile.
From the emotions, which our eyes express as tears, angels will take them above,
And sort them out in categories like sadness, loss and love. 

The angels continue to sprinkle the tears from on high, like a carpet of glistening diamonds 
they fall upon the earth,
As emotions are learned from the old ones and transferred to the babies from birth.

Premium Member My Heart's Eviction Notice

I’m giving you two weeks’ notice
And then I’m evicting you
From my heart
You haven’t been paying your dues…
Lingering caresses
Entwining embraces 
Passion laden kisses
And loving whispers
Are overdue
LONG overdue

What’s worse…
You’ve been trashing the premises
With your careless words
dirty excuses
filthy put-downs...
Your childish tantrums
And misplaced anger
Have littered my heart

You have been bringing in
Uninvited guests 
To share the night
Thinking I was unaware
Of the trysts
But this place is meant for you
YOU
Alone

There has been too much
Way too much
Wear and tear
And so I declare
You are being evicted
Pack up your things
And find another
Heart
to live in!

I need some time
To set things right
To make repairs...

The love paint needs to dry
The dream frames need to be hung
The soiled sheets need to be purified
I need to sew new curtains of hope
And wash away the grime from the
windows of my heart
Before I can even consider
Taking in a new resident.

Two weeks…..
Just enough time
For you to pay for damages
And then to leave
Peacefully...
Before I have you thrown out
of this heart of mine!
