The prudent dwelling of wisdom,
stays in comfort with my soul
and questions in conversation my tethered body.
To know such answers is beyond the wisest heart
and finds a multitude of words cannot describe their separation.
How is it the heart and soul are not one
and if the heart dies would not the soul also vanish?
As the sun rises in the east and sets in the west,
bringing a new day, so does life.
We rise and fall in frustration of not knowing,
what is or is not beyond the last breath.
To say I know is not wisdom, it's faith.
To say I don't know is truth,
though it lays buried in time's sand,
by the many who came before declaring I know,
with their own faith.
They too dreamed of laying by peaceful waters,
for all eternity, all had faith, all had hope, as do we all,
but..to stand before these passing ghosts
and claim to know, is foolishness.
In such matters between the soul and heart,
we hope, we claim faith, we claim wisdom,
yet..truth will only reveal itself at death.
contest Soul Consciousness
Question.. Will your soul be conscious after you have left Earth.

FAITH IN GOD WHO GIVES US WHAT IS GOOD
God gives us what is good by His truth-verities
Away from vanity of vanities
Midst travails causing vexation-uncertainties
So as to strengthen our faith by His Word’s sureties.
God gives us what is good by His profitable pleasure
Away from madness of worldly leisure
Midst possessions bringing stressful pressure
So as to increase our faith by His Scriptures’ eternal treasure.

Away from foolishness of confusion’s silence
Midst self-sufficiency along wealth’s opulence
So as to drive our faith by His principles’ prevalence.

Away from disobedience that invite curses
Midst personal ambitions of humanistic exercises
So as to empower our faith toward virtuous practices.

Midst misery of heart attacked by covetousness
So as to help our faith upon prayer striving for holiness.

Midst boastfulness along worldliness-tower
So as to train our faith for submission of surrender’s flower.
God gives us what is good by His gracious heart
Away from problems that challenge us from the start
Midst trials oppressing with their difficulties’ dart
So as to let our faith triumph in serving Him with our best part.

Love Your Neighbor
As you love yourself
Wait a minute I
Am almost gone
to the wilderness
Don't bring that hate,
Envy, rage, foolishness
Drunkenness, Adulterous
Taking all my sugar and bread with
Lusting after own eyes
And mind over this way
Telling me to be my own shrine
We don't need God
We can make it own our own
I can't even take this next breath
Without God allowing it
He has ability to snatch it out
At anytime ,thankfully
He is patient with us
This is for fun my friends
But hope to get a point across
We can not even know love
Until the spirit of God
Dwells within to create
a new mind and heart
Then the love within
Flows out into all ,
Love all of you
If you like it are not
We all still have hope
If we are breathing
This poem written to show difference in fruit from this world tree
Vs fruit that grows within spirit tree

CONCEPT...FLOW....PROSODY.....
these are sequencailly sound!
Wishing aint gonna make it happen
it's best to stop whinnin and complaining
tuuf it out if you goota
when life puts you through changes
we gots to togther
sorting out the foolishness
from the good stuff
got to be more reliable
to get through this situation
it aint easy thinkin up something
when there aint that musch to say
what seriuos to me is a joke to you
sems you like it that way
toddle up and get ther
do your best to keep it right
we gonna be together
just let me make it throught the night
pucker up and kiss me
Sweet lady let me be your man
concepts flowing groovin together
pouring out like a soda can
swig aint that nasty
it sweter then the honey from the bee's
cold to cold today and tommorow
just keep me off my knee's
So soft, the light of candles, dancing on the darkened walls.
I pace, and my step echoes, throughout these ancient halls.
Dust has grown so fine and thick that I walk in a haze.
What would my sight do anyway, within this lonely maze?
I can’t escape the edifice, for in a weakened state,
its architect neglected to provide it with a gate.
Such fanciful design—soaring stairs and chandeliers!
Made by one who chased his dreams and flew above his fears.
Now I stride most every night, within this lonely place,
thinking of his foolishness, the weight of his disgrace.
His motive was to win her, and he built without his eyes,
thinking she was with him; imagine his surprise.
I’m locked within this wondrous trap that should have set me free.
A prisoner by my own hand—the architect was me!

Fanatics in feigned fury forced fellow fools for fait accompli
Laying lies as labyrinth loyally to murdering Lord,
Haggard Haters in hounding habits and hypocrisy as honor hunched,
Bearded Blackguard blazes bright sword amongst blinded buffoons,
Jabber with Jackknife judging jaundice with Kind “Jihads”,
Happy to hack the Innocent whose life they cannot save,
For the foolishness and orderings of an epileptic and adulterous protagonist,
Ten times in ten holes for ten years hunted by his guilt in 9/11,
And thoughtless Arabian protects a coward from justice of his acclaimed crime,
As Hitler and Haman hewed wicked gallows sitting as Judges of men,
As Abacha abandon décor following the doctrines of murder in “holy unholy book”
As Mobutu, blazing terror the macabre style
And like Osama Bin Laden,
Another coward fanatic dies running from Justice
Fears of Abandonment
I feel you need
and want me less
than I need
and want you,
and like you,
or how about exclusively
peculiarly
curiously love you?
adult with mature adult,
embracing EarthTribe perennial invitation
into nutritious co-habitation.
And yet I fear
we both would rather invest ourselves
in most any distraction,
entertainment,
idle gossip,
idol worship,
other than this sacramental relationship
of me with
and for you,
and you
with and for me.
Not despite all our decades
of competing foolishness,
but learning together through all our beat down
hidden longings
to feel safe daily respite;
to feed sacred partnered
sanctuary feelings,
covenanted thoughts
Of epic everyday co-investors
with no sacred or secular,
divine or profane assets
held in dualistic
disassociated reserve,
just in case life doesn't work out safely together
better than unsafely apart.
When sacred love conquers all defensive fears
and transparent invitation
redeems secular competitions in anger
overwhelming economies of needy greed
and selfish politics of envy,
When daily co-passion rules
not just left-brain corporate commodity identities
but also pervades our cooperative right-brain sanctuary
of primal relationship feelings,
deep learning connection,
robust attachment,
Then our mutual root system
and garden,
our forest of emotions,
our home plate defensive motions,
our core incorporations
for not abandoning compassionate Earth
as we know and love
all Her multiculturing incarnations
of co-empathic relations
further refine Golden Rules and Ratios,
Health-passion, slow-grown
co-arising emergent ecstasies,
co-gravity emoting climax,
epic wonder,
awesome win/win integrity.
Feeling cooperatively needed
wanted
heard
appreciated
through natural nurturing ego/ecosystems,
mutually-held and responsive invitations
to love all EarthTribes,
life forms
as EarthMother has win/win loved you
and me,
All Souls of regenerations past,
present,
future.
