Long Instigators Poems

I take a four-fold spin
through Bill Plotkin's wheel
of bilateral identities,
iconic developmental faces,
ironic personalities.


FIRST comes Eastern-born
dawn of human infancy,
Innocent Sage infants
so WiseElder
in our LeftBrain emergent
wrinkling unfolding 
sacred RightBrain ways.

Searching for care giving eyes
to be sure we...

Obstinate defiance from an indignant child 
Consummate reliance on the spirit of the Wild

A syndicate of derision that is waiting to depart 

The honorary commemoration...

It is not my intent to Laypeople offend, 

When I refer to religion contrived by greedy men. 

Not all, some individuals always ready, 

To take time out to help the needy, unsteady. 

No, the religious...

Today I was walking barefooted, 
After a heavy thunderstorm had passed thru,
I was wearing a beautiful white cotton dress. 

I suddenly stumbled upon a puddle,
A beautiful muddy puddle, I was instantly
drawn to its diameter and...

War ain’t a kosher thing
The killing of innocent human beings
was never FDA approved
(From Da Almighty)

Ebenezer fiscals’ hands be closed tighty
	to the citizen poor
But they openly solicit those laborers’ loyalty,
before sending them off to war

Dem silver-loving...

Who boast of their achievements, put on an act instead.

Who claim to love their neighbour omitting black or white.
I cannot tolerate the...

Such a predestined malfunction fiber optic outrage

Ms. Chief of the Microchip Morality Division,
your prompt commands

There was rejoicing in the streets as the throng came together.
They were ready to fight...

Tears that came from the heart, tears collected from birth.
Through the fits of joyful laughter, to the sobbing of heartache...

FEELINGS


Feelings,
Masters of my destiny
Lords of my life
Strength of my dreams
Instigators of my actions

Burning fire you are 
Consuming my whole 
Being:
My heart
My mind 
My soul
My spirit,  
As you relentlessly
Demand: 
To be conceived
To be formulated 
To...

Time is too precious to waste.
Time has been wasted.
It flies with every blink.
Wasted, wasted on trivialities.
Baraka and mercy in time lost over time.
We can never regain lost times.
Relive the nightmare of our now realities.
Countries are...

For twelve long years it was back to school
To make sure I didn’t grow up a fool
Learning how to read a book, do a cipher
At times I felt like a prisoner … a lifer!
I griped...

We pause
To pay our respects to those brave enough
To stand for those who won't for whatever reasons
For standing against the oppressors of the oppressed
The instigators of our distress
But, indeed, our lives could...

Where obvious individuals don't get treatment.
The true instigators are now on the run.
They enticed it to happen and got ghost on...

Some are wearing dog collars with spikes, and leather chaps
We crawl out of our day jobs, dragging our electric guitars

Reminiscing is a funny thing... 

It's what you remember in the past of what once was. 
Stored in your memory; reliving it FOREVER, 
The good, bad and the ugly.

Tears of loss remembered,
sad shadow of terror's anguish in loss
new-found.

Supremacist dominators,
terror instigators,
domestic peace violators
sociopathological neglectors
of SelfAsOther nurturing care,
might become a sad legend of premillennial history,
replaced by the diastatic trembling courage
of leaves welcoming opportunities
to regenerate clean...

Definitely not American. Do you have Provolone?
