Premium Member Heretic

Giordano Bruno looked up at night 
Suggested stars were suns, not just points of light
Planets might circle those many suns
They might even have life, we might not be the only ones

The Church called his words a crime, not just a mistake
For this heresy, they burned him at the stake.
If your ideas undermine the narrative, you're a threat
And in medieval times, that was a bad bet.

[chorus]  
If you're not a heretic on something, maybe you should be
To keep the dogma honest, new ideas are the key.
But telling the truth can make you pay a price  
Check the terrain, should you refrain? it's hard to give advice. 

In Stalin's Russia, random terror was always feared.
Even geneticists were put in gulags, or just disappeared.
Genetics meant your kids didn't inherit the new you.
And changes to socialist man were every generation's due

In 2014, USA, Brendan Eich went out of line
For opposing gay marriage, he had to resign
Not a church, but his employees made him depart
Though Dating apps like OKCupid also played a part.

[chorus]  
If you're not a heretic on something, maybe you should be
To keep the dogma honest, contrariness is the key.
But telling the truth can make you pay a price  
Check the terrain, should you refrain? it's hard to give advice. 

In 2024, Efraim Haim revealed his hospital flaw
They were transitioning teens, against Texas law
Puberty blockers, hormones, on an 11-year-old
Now he's indicted, the feds won't release their hold

The old times, regressive, superstitious night
Now we're so progressive and we see the light
We're so tolerant, we don't settle the score
Scratch that, we're the same people as of yore.
And the waves of old keep beating at the shore.

Pay To Play the Shadow Governments Way

Hillary is cooked Bills time not overlooked
Their crimes way overbooked
Democrats and Republicans alike
Caught on a barbed hook
Americans don't need another look
The Clinton Foundation indicted like crooks
We didn't hire any of them to cook the books

I'm sure they all shook when they took a look
Through all of their lies
They have worked up like spies
America so wise
You’re all guilty in her eyes
We are not willing to compromise
All along they were planning our demise
While the big bad wolf hides in disguise

Mueller playing both sides of the fence
If I was Obama
I would be looking for a good defense
He left so much corruption in his wake
Most Americans knew he was a fake
The collusion and election tampering
Heating up like a red hot injection

Looks like Trump is taking this country
In a whole new direction
America's complexion is clearing up 
Like he promised 
With plenty of protection
From these kinds of infections
Pedophilia from Washington to Hollywood
Running scared up to no good
Across the board, America is floored
Trump screaming it will not be ignored
He will cut through it like a mighty sword  
                                                                    
Oh Lord I pray each and every day
You clean up our government 
Who would act this way
So much has been left to decay
While all of it on display
Tried to do it the Bush's way
But they let our towers fall that day
Just like Bush Sr. before to start another war
To line their pockets even more
 
Uranium One has come undone
The evil that has been spun
The democratic party on the run
It would appear that many have much to fear
Because the end is very near
They have bet it all on their careers
It's clear that politics in Washington
Have been nothing but a big smear
Set to ignite and just disappear

Pay to play the shadow governments way
Should be dealt with in a very public display
Taking all of Satan's power away
From those who would betray
Americans by lying about why they want '
To round up our guns

Wake up America
They're not playing for fun
While they spun their awful run
This is to let them know crimes against America
That won't come undone
It's we the people that will have won
Shadow government is all done

Premium Member Addicted To Integrity

Feeling exhausted
by addiction to integrity.

But, prefer this sad loved addict
to being self-indicted
for lack of win/win integrity;
total investment 
in lose/lose nihilistic
fascistic disintegrity,
disintegration.

Addiction to dicked down
synergetic passion
seems a healthier prospect
than apartheid alienation,
chaotic degeneration

Rather than this more positive addiction
to EarthTribe's organic integrity,
resonant DNA harmony,
cooperative polyvagal resilience,
synergetic neuro-systemic balance

EarthMothers
at least temporarily feel
an arduously merciful master
of sensory
musical
physical
relentless mental health care
wealth cooperative
co-investing extensions eco-out,
intentions ego-in

Emerging through Left embodied pleasure's
peaceful Right mind paradise 
religious promise
re-connecting polycultural family
DNA extensions,
nerved mindbody co-passions,
negatively anxious
and positively anticipating
and curiously in-between received
panentheistic hypotheses

Of global paradigmatic history
ZeroSum preemptive
pre-emptying evolutionary Left/Right bicameral theory
regeneratively embedded
in His/Her 
Nature/Spirit
Out/In
1/0 sacred indigenous NonZero 
Full/Empty 
Integral Holonic Soul

Grows sadly incomplete
synergetic EarthTribal co-addiction
to feeding and watering personal/global
ego/eco-systemic
bilaterally co-empathic 
sad loss inside/glad gain outside
love addiction 
co-arising narratives.

Premium Member Beholding the Saviour's Triumph

Leaving heavenly throne to reach-out mankind, the Messiah bore the status of condescension: His birth in the Bethlehem manger brought to Earth’s calendar a divine milestone, while glorious angelic choir and awed shepherds welcomed His babyhood.

offering love’s best
incarnation triumphant
eternal life reigns

Servant-leadership --- Christ exemplified as He ministered with mercy’s optimized best: healing the sick, feeding the multitudes, quickening the dead, forgiving the repentant, pronouncing beatitudes, drawing humanity nigh to the Almighty.

utmost caring shown
compassion indeed at work
blissful selflessness

Falsely accused with blasphemy unpardonable, betrayed by intimate companions, indicted to pay sins’ penalty, Jesus bore the cross to Calvary, giving up the ghost to reconcile sinners to the holy Creator: freeing those who trust Him from iniquities’ condemnation, assuring them heaven’s security, and granting peace so blissful.

grace and justice met
redemption truly fulfilled
blest crucifixion

Entombed, verily secured; yet after three days of burial, the Saviour rose amidst guarding soldiers manifesting His omnipotence: mighty wonder proving His expertise in impossibilities, miraculous act only the Sovereign can do and marvelous magnificence against vanity of temporal existence.

power over grave
resurrection smiting death
hope of believers

Heeded toward the Father above, the Lord entrusted the Great commission-fruition to His church: to build lives, spread His love, exalt His name through the Holy Spirit’s guidance, gearing, guarding, and girding while advancing His kingdom*.
 
pursuits accomplished
ascension so jubilant
to come again soon

*Matthew 28:19-20 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Premium Member Lilith

“The actual guise of her has become apparent” ~~ The Poet

Engaged in rapturous slander.
Forced by reputation to meander.
Through the annals of time,
Deemed worse than a witch sublime
Indicted as a demon in old folk lore 
Seducing men asleep to wake no more.
Maligned, falsely accused, my name abused
Demons to keep them afraid and subdued
We have, violent police and false news today
Now the demons had no need to stay
Pitted the mate of Samael, a demon
Though never receiving his semen
Deemed to be starved of love
These accusations, could I rise above?
No killer was I, at childbirth
Twas unsanitary practices for what it’s worth.
Although I was tagged a man hater
My ill repute was changed much later
Rebranded from a malevolent figure incorrect
It was transformed to one of respect.
Becoming a second wave feminist voice.
A dramatic twist in narrative to rejoice.
Now revered for all my positive traits as reliance.
Independence, empowerment and defiance.
Qualities that rendered me refusal to submit.
Accepting this description I freely admit
Recognized as a model to radiate assertion 
In all this time never contemplated desertion.
Fortitude to grasp the bull’s horns
Bravery to repel all man’s scorns
Being the weaker gender is now just a myth
Conviction and diligence I am always with.
No bragging of honor, valor or victory is needed
Any compassion I have is now frequently heeded
I advance with the strength to stymie the foe. 
Estimate from where I come, but see where I go
Being submissive with piety was never my station
I stand a symbolist reflection of the feminist vocation
No need for a masculine throng to be invited
The powerful fire within me has been resighted
I am, Lilith by name
I feel no shame.

Premium Member Envision

(Prompt: Wisdom is not enough to calm your fears.)


The kinetic world is on a great sprint.
The silent seer stares at with a squint.
He feels distressed for the occurring harms.
With a solemn demeanour, he alarms.

Identity crises among nations
Contending with insecure relations
Keep their voices go with sonority
For comfort and self-based priority

Within countries, separatists conspire
Catastrophes are adding fuel to fire
Forcing uniformity – a threat
It's never too late to change the mindset

Creative destruction is invited.
Creating mess is to be indicted.
Agape love can alone wipe away tears
Wisdom is not enough to calm your fears.

Premium Member Walking On Sin

Feet soiled by the ashes of burnt name 
Black as the base of bottomless shame
Carrying on the shoulder murky disdain
You walked your life on the slimy sin.

Despised footprints crushed the ground 
Trailed you to disgraced ambiance around 
With soul crushed in depth of dark ruin
You walked your life on the slimy sin.

Introspection would light up the mind
Darkness dissolved, you would soon find
Footprints forget in lone remorse within
You walked your life on the slimy sin.

Indicted by the proclaimed self-judgement
Dark identity would collapse in the present
Erased footprints won’t remind you again
You walked your life on the slimy sin.

Genocide by Prescription

In the spirals of our ancient code lie secrets
No pill boasts on its glossy label:
We are the cradle of the human genome,
Yet our maps remain blank in global trials.

Test tubes filled with our diaspora’s pulse
Are left untouched—ignored by profit’s design.
Prescription after prescription fails us,
Side by side with miracles elsewhere.

Tell me, Western pharmacopeia,
Why ship drugs proven blind to our cells?
Why let our hearts suffer, our livers wear thin,
While your profit margins bloom?

This is not science—it’s a crime cloaked in white coats,
A quiet genocide as lethal as any missile.
Colonial bias got a new skin—it wears lab coats now,
And it bleeds through African veins still uncounted.

To the leaders in ivory towers of a broken state:
Your silences echo louder than your oaths.
You sold your people’s trust
For crumbs from foreign tables.

But we—the children of a thousand tribes—
We are rising not in whispers, but in fire.
Your puppetry ends where our voices begin:
We will build our industries, staff our labs,
And chart every strand of our DNA.

Pharma’s blood stained on our histories,
Indicted by our silence no longer.
We demand justice, recall every flawed pill,
And rewrite the code of care in our own image.

For if medicine cannot learn our language,
Then it shall learn our resistance:
Made in Africa, by Africans, for Africans—
No more sacrifices for their sterile profit.

Premium Member The Man

A man acquainted with sorrows and grief
be it then was bruised for our relief
the ones  ruling over them kept them in pain
but struck was he so we might Life regain
 
All like sheep have wandered astray
but he announced to the crowds Gods new day
no violence could be found in his actions done
he spoke of peace in the kingdom to come
 
He fed the hungry and gave to the poor
tender of heart and kind to his core
oppressed was he and sore afflicted
falsely accused by traditionalists indicted
 
A quiet man who spoke of verity
taught of loving kindness and mercies charity
the man he was did the broken draw
in every point did he fulfill Gods Law
 
The works of his hands righteous and clean
his judgment was pure and never mean
a candle whose light has dispelled the dark
his praise for his Father did all his works mark
 
Jehovah pronounced this the Son he approved
to him was beloved and the World reproved
no harm could be found in his heart or hand
those who follow him will the same stance stand
 
He sought not mens praise or their vainglory
yet acquired Gods love but by man treated poorly
unlike the kings who Lord over their kin
washed the feet of disciples those lower than him
 
Did demonstrate he how to walk Truths Way
by example showed traits his disciples display
with accurate judgment in all that he did
to become like him to his disciples he bid
 
We are not worthy of God to approve
if we do not from our lives violence remove
those who hate and practice manslaughter 
cannot become his Son or his daughter
 
To become like him the Truth you must drink
it must cleanse from you what the world think
upon his teaching consume as your bread
without his life in you , you are still dead..

The UK was never innocent just cowardly

The uk is guilty too
Stop hiding behind America 
You were involved too
It's time for you to take the stand
Reveal the blood on your hands 
Accountability is calling your name 
America can't take all the blame 
When it was them who followed your lead 
Joining the slave trade from your influence

Don't hide behind black American history 
When you have black history of your own 
Centuries of history condensed all into one 
In a textbook written in lies and cowardice 
Erasure of pain that could testify against your guilt 
History books written with whitewashed ink

Don't feign innocence 
And don't feign guilt
Your plan to cower in the shadows 
And try to run from what you did
Does not absolve you from blood spilt 
When you were the ones who tipped the bucket

Your covert operations are not secret anymore 
When the deeper we look the worse the horror 
Of what our ancestors had to endure 
An island of secrets yet to be explored 
You can't keep hiding forever when they turn up on shore 
From race riots to Bristol bus boycotts
The erasure of black soldiers
And the Bristol slave ports
The secrets you try to keep are in storage no more 

Silence isn't your friend 
It will hold you accountable 
The many crimes you have committed against black people 
Your ignorance will be your downfall
Your island maybe small compared to the rest of the world 
But your crimes will be indicted in the court of law
Your punishment a cage with no doors 
Since you like to hide history your freedom will be no more
