Losing It Again

Losing it... things don't mean . 
Can't just make it fit. 
Take a knife and make a slit... no... won't do it. 
Time to get lit. 
Trust it. Don't know yet. 
 it.  Not literally,  ...
 don't know yet... 
gotta stand my ground, unstable, 
it's gone, can't be found, 
my mind isn't able, not alone... 
A storms coming, clouds inbound, 
find the cable, tie down, no sound... 
take a number, sit down, 
it's too late, too soon? 
The alarms went off but clouds were already circling... this storm turned into  a hurricane 
don't want to feel anything ... 
get rid of it all just to numb the pain,
Can't fix my heart or my brain..  
too late, already ingrained. 
Make me feel insane 
scream it silently
 it's all in vain... 
time to let go 
and let the others take control before i fumble... 
sitting backseat watching the waters rise and buildings crumble... 
the game plan was botched who dropped the ball?
I'm giving in before I fall. 
I'm becoming locked inside my head but maybe it's for the best... 
let the others take a turn while I try to get some rest. 
Can they tell it's not me?
I guess we will see... set them free... 
so mote it be.

Naked Thought

...
.... 
.....if you truly searched and found me not
for five weeks.
I'm sorry 'cos..
I fed little or no poetry.
stories are meant for the tellers
this,  as accorded :
my muse bled painstakingly 
I wasn't just robbed
my gadgets were too. 
At first,  I spoke like a goon 
identity forgone,  fear has risen 
on my scale of actions. 
Even though the mirror  hurts
later found the reincarnated me
feeling once more,  the childhood  I left.
Assault in rounds of slap
beaten to pulp,  factually ,  no bandages .
my diary explains more while time lapses
indeed it was a witness 
I nearly lost my mind 
after loosing some utterances
Cat and dogs ran,  I feared to live. 
They dare not come to my rescue
I'm no tatterdemalion! non adheres,
some thought I was begging  for alms,
left inbound like a stray ?? .
Thank holiness, 
 pejoratively, there exists  no male urchin
I was there in the street,  weeping like a stream
still, they believe  the gold digger hath come.
Men ain't faulty,  
little  do they know about faults 
even I lost all hope 
here I am, life is still
my naked ??

Major Crash

Early morning on the road,
Babysitting duties call.
Traffic outbound's mostly light,
Heading to the suburbs' sprawl.

Suddenly, it all slows down;
On the GPS, a flash -
Point three miles up ahead,
There has been a major crash.

At a standstill, we are trapped;
Nothing really we can do.
Even with the updates, we are
Stuck in lane without a clue.

Not a siren to be heard.
Not a horn, impatient, honks.
Every driver is resigned
To extra minutes in the Bronx.

Inbound cars are flying by
Yet we suckers sit and sit,
Trying hard to take a breath
And, hopefully, avoid a snit.

All in the surrounding cars
This morning share an equal fate -
Even though we left on time,
Each of us will show up late.

Premium Member I AM THAT I AM

“A heartbeat pulsating as living light
free from each and every limitation
I AM that dwelling in inbound delight
the source wherefrom arises creation”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We are that we are that we might align as God’s designed, divine
boned souls; therefore, I am that I am that I might become all that 
Spirit deems my possibilities to don and grow from.

As golden light inside earthly flesh status and matters, I densely 
stumble through life’s living maze to either be conquered and 
triumphant, or conquered and redundant.  Only when confined 
do most seek to break out and realize the divine tools we all 
possess in the recesses of the ‘I am’ we are.  

I am my soul’s potential of light, love and joy thus existential 
credentials are essential for realizations of my nature.  Intuitive 
insight pulses layers of intoxicating rushes that inform and 
discern the terms of who I am now and endowed to further be.

I OPENED A DOOR IN THE UNIVERSE
AND FOUND MYSELF IN A WORLD
SURROUNDED BY WHAT APPEARS TO BE 
ENERGY OR SHALL WE SAY ENERGIES.
WAVE AFTER WAVE OF ENERGIES.
I HAD TO QUESTION MYSELF...  
ARE THE WAVES INBOUND OR
OUTBOUND , ASCENDING OR
DESCENDING.? 
WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY THOUGHTS
SEEMED TO PROJECT A FREQUENCY
THAT MINGLED WITH THE WAVES
OF ENERGY. 
IT WAS THEN I REALIZED
I , WAS A FREQUENCY WAVE OF ENERGY.
IN A UNIVERSE FILLED WITH A 
SYMPHONY OF MESMERIZING  VIBRATING COLORS
OF ENERGIES RADIATING THE
DISPERSEMENT OF HARMONIZING FREQUENCIES.
AT THAT VERY MOMENT A THOUGHT 
MATERIALIZED. 
THE THOUGHT OF A PEBBLE FALLING
FREELY AND  EFFORTLESSLY 
INTO A MOTIONLESS , GLOSSY ,
MIRROR LIKE , BODY OF WATER. 
LIKE A METEOR THROUGH
TIME AND SPACE.
THE INITIAL CONTACT CREATED A SPLASH 
THAT SENT RIPPLES ACROSS
THE SURFACE, UPWARD , DOWNWARD
OUTWARD AND THROUGHOUT. 
AS THE BODY OF WATER CAME TO LIFE,
I FOCUSED ON THE RIPPLES OF WATER
FOR WHAT SEEMED LIKE A LIFE TIME
OF ETERNITY.
 I COULD SEE , HEAR AND FEEL 
THE VIBRATION IN , AROUND AND
THROUGHOUT THE SURROUNDING ATMOSPHERE. 
IT WAS AN OVERWHELMING AND
PROFOUND EXPLOSION OF SOUND.
A SYMPHONY OF ENERGIES.
IT WAS AS IF I ABSORBED THE ENERGY
TRANSLATED AND PROJECTED THE THOUGHT 
" LIFE IS GREAT ".  
I COULD SEE THE RIPPLES COLLIDE 
WITH THE ENERGY OF THOUGHT , 
CAUSING THE SURFACE ,
OF THE BODY OF WATER , 
TO BEGIN DANCING , SPARKLING AND 
CELEBRATING.
AS IF THE BODY OF WATER WERE IN 
AGREEMENT.
IT BECAME ABUNDANTLY CLEAR.
I , WE , MANKIND ,  CAN AND DO ,
COMMUNICATE , WITH THE UNIVERSE.
OBVIOUSLY , THE UNIVERSE RESPONDS
TO OUR QUESTIONS AND THOUGHTS.
HOW WE INTERPRET THOSE 
FREQUENCIES AS THOUGHTS
ARE TOTALLY UP TO US.
UNDERSTANDING THE VOCABULARY
OF LISTENING , SPEAKING , READING
AND WRITING , THE MESSAGE CAN ,
AND FOR MANY , IS A CHALLENGE.
HOWEVER , ONCE WE BEGIN TO 
UNDERSTAND , WE HAVE A BETTER
CHANCE OF UNDERSTANDING 
WHO AND WHAT WE ARE AS FAR AS
A LIFE FORM IN THE UNIVERSE.
WE TOO ARE A BODY OF WATER ,
ABSORBING FREQUENCIES OF
OUR UNIVERSE AND OUR 
SURROUNDINGS.
UNDERSTANDING THE VOCABULARY ,
WE MAY THEN INTERPRET , AND
TRANSLATE  THE UNIVERSAL  
MESSAGE.
LIFE IS GREAT ...FANTASTIC...
INCREDIBLE... AND AT TIMES... 
SIMPLY AND TRULY UNBELIEVABLE.

Premium Member The Hope of This World Brings Me Down

Circumstances respectively the man mind response to the Thrills of the decisions that is captivating my life
Born born to wonder full of thunder malice has challenged me more than once but twice
It's my decision in my division I am full of challenges and yet I demand that in my life
Ever so worthy to be honored and respected and reared in a new life
Hope is hoping raising is pleasing and I wonder if I'll ever see it

The hope of the world brings me down brings me down
The joy of the world keeps my heart and soul all bound
How can I relax and keep it in context  Oh!
When did Joy of this World Keep Me Down
When the joys of this world keeps me down

What this world has to offer all the Bountiful things material thing
Money Fame and Fortune glamorous meticulous wanted things
It's all for me so abundantly the world has everything I need all that it's offered
Get well on my feet I'm still in complete without the Lord Jesus Christ at the altar
So I lay down my arms so everything I own on the floor and I've chose to Worship the Lord

The hope of the world brings me down
The joys of this world keeps my hope all inbound
Relax and keep in context do I really need ALL these things
In truth  all  my needs and happiness comes from this world???

I have a new revelation
I have I have fallen on my knees found a new realization
I need to worship the Creator and not the creations

The hope of this world brings me down brings me down
The joys of this world keeps my heart and soul inbound
I cannot relax and keep it all in context Oh!
 when did the joy of this world Keep Me Down
When did the joys of this world Keep Me Down

There are a lot of Pleasures Pleasures Pleasures to be found
Mystically miraculously Anna bountifully materialistic fathoms rhythms of accomplishments so awesome and so empowering
Not it's my pleasure that my new treasurer is my spiritual Vice
Now That I Found Jesus I have hope and now in Jesus Christ
So what profit a man to gain the world and to lose his life
For I would rather have no or some things but have all of Jesus Christ

Premium Member Across a Darkening Sky

Ashen grey clouds in drift, across a darkening sky
A solitary soul stands whilst the ravens no longer fly
They settle on the gravestones, gathering in the trees
For soon they'll be summoned, ignoring the weakening pleas

The hooded figure signals, like thunder their wings flap
Arms now folded in stance as they gather for their attack
Amidst the greying sky flies an unkindness of black
For soon they'll release their anger, there will be no lack

Towards the town they head in stealthily gliding ease
Riding the storms thermals, being carried on it's breeze
An unsuspecting township oblivious in their surround
For soon in sporadic scatter amidst this black inbound

No religion colour or creed is spared their pecking beaks
For it's the blood of the human that desires their darkened seek
Lacerated weeping bodies in frenzied crimson run
Zig zagging like headless chickens, as to why this has begun

A Picture

A picture speaks a thousand words..
A picture speaks volumes
A picture captures the precise moment in time..
Frozen forever in just a moment

A smile
A frown
frozen solid in an instant..
Where were you at that exact moment a picture was taken?
Outbound or inbound?
Surrounded by loved ones?
Surrounded by friends?
Alone?

A picture defines..
The answers are captured in just a heartbeat

A picture cannot change
A picture doesn't lie
A picture is unique

A grand universe it is..
A picture is grander..  
A forever keepsake..
As it shall remain..
Looking at old pictures, one shall feel nostalgia..
A nostalgic feeling engolfs us..
Sweet memories surrounds..

A lovely picture frozen forever in time..

Losing It Again

Losing it... things don't mean . 
Can't just make it fit. 
Take a knife and make a slit... no... won't do it. 
Time to get lit. 
Trust it. Don't know yet. 
 it.  Not literally,  ...
 don't know yet... 
gotta stand my ground, unstable, 
it's gone, can't be found, 
my mind isn't able, not alone... 
A storms coming, clouds inbound, 
find the cable, tie down, no sound... 
take a number, sit down, 
it's too late, too soon? 
The alarms went off but clouds were already circling... this storm turned into  a hurricane 
don't want to feel anything ... 
get rid of it all just to numb the pain,
Can't fix my heart or my brain..  
too late, already ingrained. 
Make me feel insane 
scream it silently
 it's all in vain... 
time to let go 
and let the others take control before i fumble... 
sitting backseat watching the waters rise and buildings crumble... 
the game plan was botched who dropped the ball?
I'm giving in before I fall. 
I'm becoming locked inside my head but maybe it's for the best... 
let the others take a turn while I try to get some rest. 
Can they tell it's not me?
I guess we will see... set them free... 
so mote it be.
