A Journey To the Truth

Once i made up my mind to find the monster, 
causing all the misery in the planet.
So I set out on a journey to save earth and it's inhabits.

I first encountered a scrawny boy with no arms.
"Oh my god, i promise I'll not leave that vile beast without doing any harm"
I said to him while he just replied with a warm smile.
But it wasn't just warm, it was extremely hostile.
It craved revenge but was powerless.
But as usual, that feeble human laughed at all this mess.

Second, i met a woman with a swollen face.
She claimed that an acid attack,
 had severely cost her grace.
I concluded, that only that monster could have done this cruelty.
But who on earth gave him the authority to ruin that beauty?

I then ran into a girl near my age.
She was dressed as a bride and was probably attempting to escape.
She saw me and stated, "They're really horrible"
I questioned her, "Was your marriage forcible?"
She chuckled, 
"I was just one of the animals who escaped from being beheaded"
"And now loneliness is the only direction where I'm headed"
I really wanted to help her, 
but there are some fights that you have to fight alone.
Frankly, nothing has changed and yet only my hunger increased to overthrew tht monster from the throne.

I was running low on food when this weird looking man, 
dressed as a woman appeared before me.
He noticed me staring and said, 
"Sometimes I just want to flee"
"Why?" I asked as he handed me some food.
"Because no matter what we transgenders are always refused"
"I'm sorry, but i really hope you can one day confide in yourself"
I got up and continued my journey due to the being's help.

And once again i blamed the monster for his sufferings.
But all these people kinda left me wondering.
And that was when I realised...
The monster that i was looking for was there all the time.
Humans are the one who ruined the things everytime.
And the funny thing is that they claim that they side by peace.
But if that is true then why is the misery and misfortune in every street?

Premium Member An Ego To Brag About

He razzed Iran’s chieftain emir
Cotton's had his writing premiere 
The paparazzi
Might call him a Nazi
But he's just a smart profiteer


Author's note:  This young senator reminds me of someone who might have attended a Hitler youth camp.  Fear is his opportunity.  While he is strangely self-assured, he is on the same side of the nuclear negotiations as the Iranian hardliners.  He doesn't go back and talk about the time the USA overthrew the democratically elected government of Iran and installed the brutal Shah.  (Even if that information is critical to the relationship we now have with the Iranians.)  If talks fail we know there will be a short term benefit to certain groups.  Are you affiliated with them, Senator?  Follow the $$$.

Premium Member 'twas the Night Before Christmas and Christ Was Left Out

Twas the night before christmas 
and Christ was left out,
with no peep of the Good News,
no mountainous shout.

Stockings were hung 
by the chimney the same, 
but no one made mention 
of the Savior's name.

On this sacred night
there were still shopping plans.
Their heart was poured out
through money changers' hands.

'Twas the hustle and bustle
of past Christmas Eves.
Once deemed a holy night,
now a den of thieves.*

Folks went into debt
for the pleasure to give,
not counting the cross
and what it cost to forgive.

Presents were plenty.
Wish lists were fulfilled,
but they didn't thank God
for the blood that was spilled.

An "X" had replaced
the unspeakable name.
Christmas without Christ
was now one and the same.

'Twas the night before Christmas 
and Christ was left out.
The townsfolk had forgotten 
what Christmas was about.

Merry Christmas to all; let Christ become your light.

*Matthew 21:12-13

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves."

I Can Smell Your Dna Through Your Blood

The residue of you scent stronger this time
The blood stained a pattern of liking. 
The fingerprints you embedded left a trail of depression, even though i resided beside you.
Smelling your DNA ran throw my blood, smelling your DNA overthrew the power to smell normal.

My sense of being has diminished 
While your DNA overthrew my pattern
Your blood stained my soul, as my soul departed from this universe.
I cannot fathom your position
But your DNA matched. I cannot think of your worries, but your trail matches as the liquids pour.

While your smell smelt familiar 
Your DNA was tarnished, just
As you tarnished my trail.
Regardless where you go I 
Can smell your DNA through 
My blood.

Premium Member Humanity's Curse

1.
Yesterday night,
To the shrilling winds of history I listened to,
Telling me tales from centuries past, 
Horrifying stories of hate, suffering, and 
Distraction 
Of killings unending 
Of tortures untold 
Of pain unimaginable
Of rivers of blood 
Of seas of tears, 
All works, of appalling 
War! 


2.
I asked myself isn’t it about time, humanity
Overthrew the reign of this wrathful tyrant, 
This soulless dynast of human consciousness,
This relentless torturer of loving hearts,
This destroyer of dreams and aspirations of so 
Many generations of the innocent?

3. 
Hasn’t the hour come yet to put an end to the 
dreadfulness of war? 
How many more centuries have to pass for us to 
Stand up and fight this monstrous slayer?
How many more countries have to be destroyed?
How many genocides have to take place before
We ready would be to:
Bar hatred
Ease suffering
Stop the distractions
End the killings
Eliminate the tortures
Alleviate the pain
Dry the rivers of blood and 
Evaporate the seas of tears?

4.
Aren’t we ready yet to SAY,    
Enough to agony,
Enough to fear,
Enough to death?

But

Yes, to care,
Yes, to compassion, 
Yes, to universal brotherhood?

5.
What are we waiting for to
Erect the structures of understanding? 

What will it take to make us pave the highways of 
Friendship? 

What more do we need to build the bridges of 
Love and compassion?

6.
Let us, therefore, create, NOW,
These structures, 
These highways and 
The bridges that will permit us to: 
Eliminate our differences, 
Resolve our disputes,
Find solutions to our problems,
Give answers to questions that have 
Haunted humanity since its birth,

Thus, at last,

We will glorify God and Man alike 
By 
Establishing the kingdom of blessed
Peace on earth,
From this moment onward and into 
Eternity!

Premium Member Rulership

God has set before you Jesus the son of man
given him his power the only one who can
Jesus walked on water and legions overthrew
healed every illness did as was sent to do
 
Few have little comprehension of his gifts to men
how they are empowered when Jesus lives within
to be the Sons of God have his Light shine through
understand his Words and it's energy imbue
 
God has given treasures the inheritance of Son
that they become like master God's Beloved One
they are under tutors until they understand
the meaning of his rulership and in it's service stand
 
The Sovereigns of the nations do their leadership abuse
are corrupt in practice and righteous judgment do refuse
the takers of bribes and justice do pervert
on the path to the top care not who they hurt
 
Solomon gave his heart to know folly and wisdom
every Son of God will into this knowledge come
for God will in his kingdom have only those who serve
as only those who walk in Love treat others as deserve
 
The working of the Secret since garden was foretold
that a government by God determined in days of old
God has chosen the weak and those the world despised
that they should bare his image to Jesus rank will rise
 
All governments and nations in adversary's hand do stand
to our Lord did offer them for act of worship did demand
Jesus refused the offer , devotion to his Father True
prophetic Word of God this world already overthrew
 
Arise oh sleepers do open eyes and rise
throw down the World and sever all your ties
understand what is written the King is drawing near
war is coming to the World collect he will whats dear
 
Jesus has built his Father's temple with many gem and stone
descend it will from heaven within his throne will home
God is collecting from man his priests and Kings
they will govern from his temple dispense his holy things
 
The nations to the temple for instruction will come
with the adversary gone Light can shine on everyone
you must choose your side before God's war ensues
for your Father wants you happy and never Love refuse

Premium Member The Colonization Of Hawaii

Colonisation Poetry Contest
Kai Michael Neumann


Hawaii, my birthplace, and hometown
Fell victim of being colonized and uprooted
Those dirty rats ceased the cheese
By the 1900's the U.S annexed the territory
In other words, Hawaii was taken by force
And without consent
It's like the dirty rats came in and flexed their muscle
Much to the heartache and protest of the natives
Those disease-carrying rodents overthrew the kingdom
Queen Liliuokalani was forced to abdicate
A cultural genocide took root
The teachings of Hawaiian in schools wiped out
Housing and land requisitioned and displaced by military bases
And the underbelly of those dirty rats grew and grew
Today Hawaii is still a tropical paradise
Tourists flock to the island in droves
There are palm trees and sandy beaches everywhere
But it's the whispers and echoes of the natives
Pointing a finger at the dirty rats
And bemoaning their freedom and the 50th star on the flag
That will be forever lost

N/A-Another one. What else is new? I should go back to playing checkers.

The Dive

I wanted to find freedom 
To be all by myself 
To do the things I’d love to do
Put nothing on the shelf 
And then, at last I found her
She was awesome, she was fun
She took me here and overthrew
‘What worries? I had none!’
I did everything my heart craved for
Life was beautiful and cool
But then, I started noticing 
Freedom used me like a tool
She became too disrespectful 
Spoke to me like I was a child
I didn’t like her anymore 
I found her a bit too wild
She left me quite exhausted 
And also unfulfilled 
I got what I was craving 
But my longings were not stilled
I longed for what I needed 
So I took another dive 
But now with a much better goal
The true purpose of my life.

Premium Member Keep Looking Ahead Always, Not Back -Genesis 19: 23-26

There are many Bible lessons to be learned
some maybe minor but others are not so
really important to follow what God says
regarding divine words learn not to say no

Lot's wife's experience is well known
a real warning that God you must not ignore
our Sodom needs are left so far away
not letting it pull us in to be nailed to its floor

God is always true to His word
what He says He'll do that He will
as Lot's wife found out to her cost
be sure to wait on the Lord being still

Remember well the consequences of sin
as Sodom and Gomorrah suffered God's wrath
God poured forth His judgement upon them
this our lot when walking not His path

So fix it in your mind real deep down
keep looking ahead always, not back
you don't want to change into a salt block
better to look to Jesus in Him you won't lack

('Never look back' Genesis 19: 23-26)

(' The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar.  Then the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrah sulfur and fire from the Lord out of heaven.  And he overthrew those cities, and all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.  But Lot's wife, behind him, looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.')

Premium Member A Battle For The Throne - Wikipedia

 Uranus once ruled the ethereal realm
 And for a while was at the helm
 Until his son, Cronus, overthrew him
 But Cronus, too, would have the crown seized from him

 Cronus feared he'd lose the throne
 Which caused him to swallow more than his pride
 He swallowed his children; his wife did groan
 But Zeus, she managed to hide

 Zeus would eventually rescue his swallowed kin
 A potion given to Cronus caused him to 'hurl' them out
 But for the throne, there would  be a war to win
 In their battle with Cronus, victory came about
 
 Thunder rumbled, and a dark cloud coils
 Now it was time to divide the spoils
 Cronus  was imprisoned, never to be set free
  Zeus got the sky and Poseidon the sea
