Premium Member Faustus

Faustus was an inquisitive man
Obsessed with a burning desire  
To feel see and understand
The secrets of God’s universe
He was not afraid to make a deal
With the power that can make him feel
Omnipotent standing on the mountaintop
With the whole world under his feet
In the Himalayan highest hidden spot 
Enveloped in eerie silence sinking 
In the clouds in full moons shine
He saw the universe widespread
In a plain pattern in front of his sight 
Like a canvas of a primitive artist
Expressing the longings of his heart
In a few simple strokes of a brush
And hectic colors swiftly layered 
On top of each other in a way
He could see the pattern 
Slowly and painfully emerging
Through the surface of abstract
Landscape of shapes and forms
Intertwining in emerging storm
Created by his racing mind 
He can feel his heart beating
In this colorful pulsating pattern 
That was brought to being 
The night he made a fatal deal
For the price, he could not afford
His suffering soul became homeless
And lost forever in the outskirts
Of the abandoned world forever lonely
He desired to reduce the unbearable 
Complexity of the world around
To the simplicity of a human mind
So, he could savor it and understand
In his lonely cell inaccessible to the world
And open only to his racing mind
Not even his heart was allowed
To enter the forbidden realm
Of unknown scary threatening world
That he was discovering slowly
Inside his incognito psyche
Faustus desperately wanted to know
And understand the mysteries 
Of the infinite timeless world
Imprisoning it in his mind 
Like a butterfly flying away
Locking it in the darkness
Of his lonely cold ascetic cell
With glassy eyes staring 
The magnificent pattern of the wings
Of the monarch butterfly 
Getting lost in his own drunken
Desire that made him high 
Like an addict who can’t stop
Just a thought that he is the one
Can savor the secrets hidden from men
In thick darkness protecting him
From anyone else glancing at them
By the morning with light reaching
The window and squeezing inside
Through the metal rusted bars
Of his soul’s prison that he built
For himself the moment when 
He invited dark powers to come
Mephistopheles stepped inside
In white angels' alluring disguise
And collected his ultimate prize

Angelique

Oh immortal sorceress, daughter of Lilith
She is a prism in the moonlight, a deity 
Darker than the Sargasso sea, her fury is 
Unforgiving as the Titans came to 
Recognize all because of their jealousy 
Over her lineage and limitless validities 
War was declared and with one wave 
Of her hand mount Olympus went down 
In flames she just laughed and laughed 
Devouring their celestial transcendence 
Future generations should have learned 
From the fall of the Titans fall but them 
Didn’t learn anything at all... 
Cleopatra tried imprisoning her so she could 
Discover the secrets of everlasting life to be 
Queen of not only Egypt but the whole wide 
World but the daughter of Lilith turned herself 
Into the cobra that would be Cleopatra's 
Demise, you thought it was Rome well 
You were wrong; it was her all along… 
Angelique from Martinique, a timeless 
Beauty that even Venus would envy 
Frozen rose suspended in time, high 
Priestess calling out to you, messin’ 
With your mind, she’ll tell you she loves 
Then she will rip out your heart... 
'Cuz hell has no fury like a woman scorned 
And her magic is like lightning you never 
Know when it comes, her spells are forever 
Binding and she feels no shame in her game 
She’ll make you regret the day you were 
Ever born, she may look like an angel but 
She is the devil in disguise and she will have 
You right where she wants you with just one 
Look into her icy blue eyes 'cuz hell has 
No fury like a woman scorned especially 
When the woman is ANGELIQUE, ANGELIQUE 
From Martinique... 
Oh immortal sorceress and daughter of Lilith 
She is a prism in the moonlight, deity darker 
Than the sea than lies below widow's hill 
You may think she is just a legend but me 
Assure you she is very real... 
ANGELIQUE from Martinique, a timeless 
Beauty even Venus would envy, frozen rose 
Suspended in time, high priestess calling out 
To you, messin’ with your mind, she’ll tell you 
She loves you then rip out your heart... 
'Cuz hell has no fury like a woman scorned 
Her magic is like lightning you never know 
When it comes, she’ll make you regret the day 
You were ever born 'cuz hell have no fury 
Like a woman scorned especially when that 
Witchy woman is ANGELIQUE, ANGELIQUE 
From Martinique!

Premium Member Investments In Health

Gaia continues running on a Health Platform,
healthy democracy
for wealthy economy
for healthy ecopolitics
for wealthy democratic energy.

The idea of free markets
as those embedded in democratic transactional service
to a local community
Is as old and conservative
as the idea of health
being embedded in a real
organic economic body
and political mind,
actually communicating
and playing nice
with each other.

The primal goal of old school markets,
in good weather times,
was to grow polycultural health,
investments as rich as diverse nutritional needs
of consuming and producing constituents.

So too, in bad climate times,
a depressed and fading market
was, and is, to survive Lose economic
and Lose environmental EarthTrends,
becoming more monoculturally played out,
exhausted,


Often picking up,
emigrating toward more promising lands
and fresh water,
more breathable air,
healthier opportunities for robust
democratic
fair
transparent
mutually vulnerable
win/win healthy-wealth transactions.

Robust markets are rich in co-passionate exchanges,
a flow between non-violent consumers and producers
rooted in healthy cooperative investments
in
and from
and of nutrition-sharing hearts
and minds
and voices,
thoughts with feelings still attached.

The right to free communicating markets
is a right of democratic access
and an ecological positive corollary right
of equal freedom from investing in poison,
imprisoning the competition,
waging war against those who terrify our megalomania
with their own autonomous hubris,
violent lies
hypocrisy
narcissism
egocentrism
anthropocentrism
xenophobia
patriarchalism
homophobia
win/lose evolutionary competitions,
runaway capital hoarding,
moral bankruptcy,
investment in ego-maniacal agendas,
hate,
elitism,
racism,
autonomous media and market control,
feelings of grandiose entitlement,

Jealous and zealous bad faith
sold out as spiritualized
and denatured 
disembodied
unmarketable
unfree BadNews anti-truth.

Meanwhile,
Gaia continues running on a Health Platform,
healthy natural/spiritual democracy
for wealthy secular/sacred economy
for healthy left/right bicameral ecopolitics
for wealthy democratic free-market energy.

Premium Member She Needs a Hero

Alas! Just like poor Rapunzel, poor Princess Fauna was imprisoned in the highest wicked tower in her entire kingdom! Princess Fauna had long natural golden hair just as long and sturdy as Rapunzel's.  Rapunzel was rescued by a thief, whereas Princess Fauna was rescued by a white knight in sterling silver, astride a white noble steed also called "Silver."***

"Hark! What sounds do mine own ears hear?" I hear the thundering hoof beats of a noble steed! Pray chance Almighty God, Thou hast sent one of Thine own knights to rescue me? Have mercy and loving kindness towards me!  And smile favorably down upon Thine handmaiden from heaven's lofty heights." ***

Riding with the speed of the wind was a brave young knight clad in sterling silver armor. He posses a sword of truth, justice, liberty and honor. There was a bright and shining rainbow above his noble crown. Whenever he lifted his sword of justice towards God's lofty heavens', lightening bolts struck his holy and mighty sword!***

The royal knight Justin Freeman aimed his sword towards the fierce and fiery Satanic dragoons imprisoning the poor princess!  Bolts of heavenly lightening came forth from his sword of liberty! The enemy's dragoons were struck dead by lightening. He then used his sword to pierce the black hearts of the demonic dragoons sent by Satan. And his victorious sword was drench with their lives' blood. ***

Then Princess Fauna let down her golden hair, and Royal knight Justin Freeman, ascended into the tower.  Next they used her long golden locks to descend the evil tower.  Finally he aimed his sword directly at it, and it bursts into flames. ***

They sang, danced and rejoiced and praised the Lord for its destruction! And the destructions of the evil dragoons! They rejoiced over the defeat of Satan and his minions! The forces of goodness and light were victorious over the forces of evil and darkness!

He then carried Princess Fauna on his noble steed "Silver" unto his own kingdom of goodness and light. Where God Almighty was the only God
worshiped and recognized! "And they lived happily ever after."  ***

Love in Christ Jesus!

*********** 1

Many men will hate me for shining light on this touchy subject
And women will inevitably want to throw me under a bus
But as sure as a virus is the root of a pandemic
This subject has breached our hull and is now leaking into us

Was it not inevitable this would happen to a culture?
Like roving hoards and idealogy will subjugate the weak
Our religion, arts, and cultural stories now eclipsed by flashy images
And our perceptions of who we are now come from commercial TV

I can image what it was like to be viewed as a witch on trial
And I realize I’m opening myself to the most soul-withering scrutiny
But most every man you meet has struggled with this very issue
And the long and short of this message is this is not about me

Perhaps my fear of women fuels my longing for power
And in this fantasy world nothing ever goes wrong for me
Or perhaps I should say that’s true until the show is over
Then I drown my empty feeling in the asylum of sleep

There are women I know, cherish and respect in my own way
Who I would not touch if I could, because they are my friends
But when I see these women performing these acts on video
It will make me sad because somewhere, someone cherishes them

I can imagine the judgment from those now reading this message
And the chasm of alienation caused by this impossible fantasy world
Propaganda so sophisticated even the Nazis would be jealous
Incinerating the innocence of so many boys and girls

With every view, these women are banished further away from me
But is it possible that all along that was my very goal?
I don’t understand them, and they don’t understand me
And sometimes I have to wonder if I hate their very souls

Then I think of women that inspire me like Shakespeare
Who I would without hesitation give my life to save theirs
Then I wonder if their man has his own hidden ***** stash
And is imprisoning their ‘lady’ in a cell of hopeless fears

I do not wish to plant a seed of doubt in the minds of women
For many men say they do not find *********** appealing
In many cases I guess these guy’s brains are wired differently
And regarding this widespread religion, I think many are not even lying

Prison Life

prison life.
life prison.
life as a prison.
prison as a life.
what can be said is
simple, 
if one doesn’t want to
be where one is, doing
what one is doing, then
one is imprisoned---
the walls are high, built
of the strongest, most
impenetrable concrete &
no matter how many swings
your arms may take with
the heaviest instrument you can
find, not a crack will be made &
no Shawshank Redemption tunnels
will be burrowed out, because
alas, this isn’t ****ing 
hollywood, now is it.

this prison is something 
that you are taught from the
youngest age, that you do not
get placed in unless you do something
wrong---you’re taught by those
who are already imprisoned by
their own deeds & their own
submission to the will of the whole &
as they are already hollowed out &
dead inside, the act of imprisoning
others is no longer an isolated incident,
it is a way of life---like the most
destructive of diseases, it festers out from
the minds who have given up, who
have lost control of themselves, who
have abandoned all creative &
beautiful aspects of what it is to be
human, who have settled on
trying to make all those around them
walk, talk & act like
what it is they’ve become.

from the inside out comes change,
because the prison thrust upon us
by others is not one that needs to be
accepted, it is not one that needs to be
ingested & it is not one that needs to be
passed on like a baton in some grand
world games that brings smiles to those
already washed of their own sense of
being, of their own sense of what it
was like to have any individual sense of
happiness, whatsoever.

humor, if you let it, if you indulge in it,
will obliterate the attempt on your life.

humor is that lovely contagion that will
bring endorphins to your brain when you
laugh & it will cleanse the mind of the
walls imposed on you daily.

laugh in the face of those who need things
to be the way they want.  laugh at those
who march with power they need to feel good
about themselves.  laugh & don’t worry
about the world cuing in, getting the picture &
laughing with you---laughter, humor & smiling
within can bring you out of this prison,
regardless of whether you are 
allowed to be
free.

Premium Member Controlling Energy

Voices of the silent whispers echo deeply disturbing fact 
debates hold principle those with brains tear down structures 
human rights ignored opening up a can of worms within morals 
where truth is hidden away questions agenda 
envelope of forgotten yesterdays sealed fate 

Honour amongst thieves new world order social control 
handshakes grasp secret societies revealing dark shades 
cover ups underneath the veil careless actions endanger security 
desert storm powered by the central bank hidden secrets leak oil 
  
Where the so called elite are born without sin lawless diamonds 
with their silver spoons attached empty vessels without moral right 
classifies perfection untouchable agents of death 
In the heart of a free man looking at the system 
creating slavery cutting wages spying imprisoning freedom of choice 

Applying pressure drones killing families 
within a cloud of dust or inside evidence to support such horror actions 
criminal murderers sitting in their offices should be banged to rights 
leaving no place for hope or a just democracy strikes issues flawed  
To fatten their purses behind the revolving doors open guess
 
Suffering begins with espionage
 loveless pride exposing sheltered acts 
dragging your heals security council protecting the vulnerable's need  
instead liberal intelligence with your reductions clearly speak volumes  
threatening the poorer field positions you without care 

Royalty who profit from others pain hidden agendas lie 
conspiracy theories can carry truth to the button 
because something is hidden away under dressing why 
we ask ourselves those not brainwashed 
dirty arms deals laundering ill got money gains 
The heads of states 
they are clearly breaking the law
justice is so corrupt fact 
every Joe soap knows 
they only give us the partial truth 
optic nerve cell centre brings up a live wire 
They do not give a rats **** 
who use uranium tipped enriched missals 
poisoning the earth's crust stringing us along as peace keepers 
arming terrorists is an act of war against peace makers 
countless innocent have died at the hands of murderers

Premium Member Lord God, You Are My Just One Defender

October 24 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Acts 22-24

Key Verse – Acts 22:14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY JUST ONE DEFENDER			
	
Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against wavering faith-silence
Thank You for guarding me despite worldliness’ prevalence
Midst persecution in the journey toward heavenly excellence
As I hide in You to witness Your light’s eternal opulence.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against imprisoning futile boredom
Thank You for illumining me despite assertions of humanistic wisdom
Midst temptation in the guise of enjoyable freedom
As I trust You to participate in advancing Your kingdom.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against smiting false judgment 
Thank You for teaching me despite controversies of doctrines’ disagreement
Midst difficulties in obeying instruction and commandment
As I abide in You to experience Your good cheer’s fulfillment.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against threatening curses
Thank You for shielding me despite deceitful foes’ embraces
Midst unbelief in claiming what Your Word promises
As I rely in You to practice sincere dependence that blesses.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against accusing stare
Thank You for encouraging me despite attacks of fearfulness-scare
Midst struggles in overcoming adversaries that bring despair
As I stay in You to be enclosed within Your deliverance-care.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against taunting evil information
Thank You for subduing me despite pride’s exaltation
Midst mockery in expressing earnest sin-confession
As I remain in You to do best with pure devotion.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against jeopardizing hopelessness
Thank You for comforting me despite offences causing restlessness
Midst weakness in persevering toward victorious steward-faithfulness
As I confide to You since You hear me in my prayerfulness.

Key Verse – Genesis 41:52… God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY FRUITFULNESS CAUSE
				
Lord God, You are my fruitfulness Cause, 
prospering me with Your bounty

Lord God, You are my fruitfulness Cause, 
disciplining me of my mischief and wickedness
Thank You for governing me with Your lovingkindness
Always carrying me to Your plan of good works’ plenteousness
So I can enjoy Your fellowship, communing with You in blissfulness.

Lord God, You are my fruitfulness Cause, 
warning me against dangers of stubborn adventure
Thank You for protecting my decisions with Your wise nurture
Always filling me of my emptiness by Your compassion gesture
So I can exalt You in my godly testimony-posture.
