yes
it's the
same oldt
not a problem
something ridiculous
a meaning for nothing
screaming out hey man relax
no reason to rush and be early
life keeps moving at its own speed
we're just here to go along for the ride
to make what we will of scenery passing by
and establish a mechanical understanding of life
so we may see it for what it means is just dimension
but not complete as a picture of the goings on around us
requiring only memory to make sense of it all as best we can
of this shakespearean play that appears mainly in sign language
because there are at least two different plots for audience distraction
and i can't randomly keep up with the popcorning shapes called this reality
so my life is as analog to parallel and understand the happenings as music......

Premium Member HE IS THE KING

“We are like the moon. The moon shines anyway, but it does not produce its own light. It reflects the light illuminated onto its surface by the Sun and is never proud to say "I am the source of light". God shines through us, hence He deserves the glory; not us.”
 Israelmore Ayivor



Children’s laughter rushes into my heart,
	Where sparkling thoughts stir my feelings,
		Kindling a light, soft and glowing, moving
			Beneath the breath, retelling soul dreams.

Restless fireflies, flickering and glimmering,
	Where mindless rhythms color me luminously,
		Hesitating on the flames of autumn winds,
			Searching the night for stars who stand still.

Winter’s blessings hasten to prepare fires,
	Warming the memories with old desires,
		Healing the summer with snowflakes,
			Growing hope amid the angel formations.

Seas of compassion, warmed by understanding,
	Form a silence between what is and what was planted,
		Roots of grace, growing the stillness of softest sands,
			Wisps of peace remember that even the ocean believes.

Children’s laughter, spreading light across the forest,
	Seeking moments built on prayers for the discouraged,
		Endless passions inspired by wings that seek solace,
			Forever knowing, His love is our greatest comfort.

Echoing on the breeze of tomorrow’s breath,
	A still, cool silence meant to reveal His truth,
		Aching to see Him in the lines of misty moments,
			He is alive, in the rhythms of a life who promises…

To live forever, where the worthy comes to divide,
	Dark and light, good and bad, wrong and right,
		Where we will all find the courage to believe
			The One who created us to praise continuously…
With songs, psalms, meant to stir the soul who knows HE IS THE KING!

I Believe In Nigeria

With so many battles and 
killings, 
with slim chances of 
healings.
Our peace has been taking 
away from us, 
and our glory days are far 
behind us.
Our nation has been torn 
apart, 
by those whose love are far 
from our heart.
With tears running down 
our cheek, 
with the killings and 
violence at its peak.
Every where is been 
flooded by innocent blood, 
and our treasure been lost 
in the mud.
Everyday we live our lives 
in fear, 
with so much pain that we 
can't bear.
People been nurtured to the 
highest level of hatred, 
and now innocent lives are 
been affected.
Hatred has given birth to 
death, 
and death taking away our 
precious life on earth.
With people living their 
lives in hell, 
even when they mean to do 
well.
Properties are been 
destroyed everyday, 
and thousands of lives are 
been laid to rest each day.
Is it a crime to be a 
human? , 
or is it a sin to be a 
nigerian? .
Is it a cause to crave for 
peace in our nation? , 
a nation that's moving 
closer to the point of 
destruction.
Each day our kneels are 
planted on the ground in 
prayers, 
to eradicate pains that is 
been inflicted by peace 
haters.
All i know is that all hope is 
not lost, 
because in the ebullient 
nigerian spirit i trust.
No matter the trouble we 
may be going through 
today, 
it will be a testimony we'll 
say some day.
For every pain that we feel 
in our heart now, 
the peace of heaven will 
erase it some how.
For every sacrifice we make 
for the peace of our 
country, 
will go a long way to erase 
every of our misery.
No matter the level of 
destruction in our 
neighborhood, 
i believe one day 
everything will change for 
good.

Premium Member TV Episodes


I remember a few songs on TV episodes from my childhood.
I don't remember all the words, but do recall just a few.
I never realized the impact they would have on my life.
Two seem to have had the most impact.

One TV episode was called, "RAWHIDE".
There was a cattle drive headed to market.
After a rest period, it was time for another drive.
7 words from the leader proceeded each drive.
"Head them up; Move them out. Rawhide!"

The second TV episode was called, "CALIFORNIA".
Some of the words were,
"I've travelled here; I've travelled there
I guess I've travelled most everywhere
But I like where I am today
And this is where I'll stay".

One of the things RAWHIDE taught me was,
Always be prepared To Keep Moving On.
CALIFORNIA taught me that even when you
think you are where you want and suppose
to be, 'life demands' often force you to end
up in places you did not want to be.  In a word,
both episodes taught me about 'Adjustments'.

Search ! Search !


Search for me ! I’m somewhere on Gaia 

jumping timelines in azure release 

planet raising consciousness, sublime  

showers of pearlescent raindrops fall



traversing freely through dimensions

await phenomenal gifts bequeathed 

as you plug into immortal bond  

Search for me ? I’m inside of you, Heart ! 



There is tug of war between inside and out

map of my wondering mind invites you 

I anchor your sensuousness whilst traversing 

playful and scientific is my explorations
 


All your external quests leads you into my core

answers lie in our pulses held by the ALL
 
search for me inside telepathic waves

quantum is our eternal entanglement 



Search for me from chaos to coherence 

moving through tides of metal and fire

feel your rhythm in my veins all knotted

let go of outcomes as you Search for me

Premium Member Spangled Star Banners

Oh say, did you notice
a national predative anthem?
Moving immediately
urgently,
without reflection of starlight 
sent or received,

From waving flags predicting elite weapons
fueled by complexly masculine 
emasculating
militarized corporate industries
of mutual defensive risks
against international cooperative opportunities
to coinvest

In smoke-filled dawns of manifest destiny
toward freedom for all
self-righteous straight white males
especially with a divine right
as Earth's owners of enslaved 
exploited property,
and home to the brave mercenaries
of death 
and dying
and divestment technologies.

This anthem
is based on a patriarchal
powerful
psychological
and spiritual
and natural
and ecological
theological error.

Nowhere in our personal experience
nor our economic or political history
have we fought for freedom.

We do fight against oppression
but we flee,
apart or together, toward freedom.

Emigration is about exodus
toward hope and freedom.

Declaring wars,
expressing
and investing
our collective fears and angers,
These are about lands taken from reserved,
and feminized
and marginalized
and enslaved laborers,
forced immigrants into non-elite oppressions
of nationalism
patriarchalism
elite v non-elite dualism,
divides,
absence of win/win communication,
xenophobia
monoculturing suppressions
repressions

Where polypathic left with right win/win prominence
longs for polycultural confluence
rather than cognitive/affective dissonance,
flag waving
predicting nationalistic predative anthems
sung empty-heartedly and robotically
with elitist left-brain opulence.

If we sing it loud enough
long enough
we must be patriotically true,

But, to whom?

Premium Member Moving On Don't Erase Wrong

Moving On Don't Erase Wrong

It just proved the truth still talks

Talks through  the cracks they tried to cover,

Talks through the silence  they hoped would

Suppress me,

Talks through every bruise  that learned how

To speak without permission. 

I walk with what I encountered, not because 

The story ain't done testifying. 

They say "move on" like healing is hocus-pocus,

Like justice disintegrates

 if you stop disclosing the wound.

But I'm built from the kind of pain that shuns 

To stay quiet, the kind that looms on corners

And tells the truth with its sternum.

Moving on, don't erase wrong-it just confirms

The truth still talks, and today, I'm the one 

Letting it speak.

Premium Member The Rain That Never Bowed

Clouds are playing everyday under the fair sky.  Everywhere in their playground there's always brightness and happiness.  One day, Rain asked the Clouds if it can play with them.  Clouds said, "Yes."  Days passed by and all clouds and drops of Rain play with gay.  Then one shady day the Rain disappeared and the Rainbows asked the clouds, "Can we play with you?" The Clouds said, "No.  Only until the Rain comes back and play with us."  The Rainbows were sad and said, "We don't appear everyday.  Why not play with us today?"  "We will play with all of you if the Rain will appear and play with us again!" the Clouds averred. 

 Many days and months passed and no raindrops appeared before the Clouds.  The lands that were so rich and fertile under the Clouds are now being dried by the Sun.  Years passed and many soft grounds drifted and collided with each other.  Grounds became brittle and turned into sands.  Overtime  these sands transformed into desert and clouds turned blue.  One misty day, a tornado visited the desert grounds  and Clouds were blinded by dusts.  Rainbows never appeared again when the Rain didn't return.  When humans of modern times dubbed some dark clouds as "nimbus" during stormy days, the Rain and the Rainbows play together while no happy Clouds are visible in the sky...  What keeps the World moving?

Premium Member HAGGIS

Haggis

I was walking up Benarty hill
When a Haggis crossed my path,
It jumped into a puddle 
As it took it`s morning bath.

It splished and splashed in the puddle
And then it dooked it`s heed,
And here`s me standing thinking 
That Haggis were long since deed.

It jumped right oot the puddle
And shook it`s coat bone dry,
I moved to get a closer look
Twas then I caught it`s eye.

Motionless and startled
Then it took off like a shot,
So I took to my heels and gave chase
With everything I’ve got.

I could see the heather moving
As I followed in its wake,
But I found it hard to keep up
As my legs began to quake.

I slowed down to a canter
As I cast my beady eye,
I can’t see it in the heather 
But sometimes Haggis fly.

I walk on through the hillside 
At every twist and turn,
Till I see a dozen Haggis
All skipping er the burn.

Big ones and wee ones
All chatting as they go,
Some are black some are brown
Some are white as snow.

A Haggis for all seasons
Did anybody know?
How do they get about at night? 
Maybe some Haggis glow.

I watched them playing on the hill
Then they ran off through the trees,
I felt so proud and privileged 
I dropped down to my knees.

You can walk the hills for many years
And never catch a site,
Of that wee illusive creature
A Haggis in full flight.

So if you want to see one 
You have to be real still,
Remember this the next time 
You go up Benarty hill.

I've been up since so many times 
In many kinds of weather,
But I've never seen another site 
Of Haggis in the heather.

Maybe I’m just lucky
That they let me see them play,
But I always keep my eye out for them 
Every other day.
