Premium Member Suicide by Pride

Suicide by pride
It’s the intellect that has died
When you say “God doesn’t exist”
How do you prove a universal negative?

What would you have to know
To say for sure that God didn’t show
No one can prove a universal
Positive or negative, it’s rhetorical

You would have to know everything
But humans have limited reasoning
Besides, what needs to be proved is beyond
Everyone, and there is no magic wand

Many converted atheists have said
It’s the height of arrogance to assume God is dead
Or that He doesn’t even exist
As this conundrum shall persist

So says the sapient sentient: Repent
Listen to the voice that addresses your conscience 
“Some of my hearers are now in hell:
Now, where no hope can come
Now, where no gospel will ever be preached
Now, where they bitterly regret their wasted opportunities
Now, where memory holds a dreadful reign
        A constant reminder of their sins refrain
Now, where the worm dieth not, or the fire is quenched
       Where they gnaw their fire tormented tongues in stench
Now where God’s fury is manifested in full 
       In Tophet’s hideous fire, below”

Premium Member AN ALLEGORICAL MATH LESSON: Rational and Irrational Numbers

AN ALLEGORICAL MATH LESSON
(Rational And Irrational Numbers)
             
              1.
Rational numbers,
And irrational numbers,
Teach many lessons:
Allegorical lessons,
On the living of our lives:- 

                2.
We must live rationally;
Living irrationally sucks:
Swallowing life’s goals:-
That teasing “pie in the sky”,
Must be assessed by squaring 
With God’s sage divine wisdom,
And His repeating guidance:-

                 3.
Thus, always strive to be
In logical reasoning
With ourselves, and with others:-
With deception all wiped out,
And all wrong things put aside,
Always seek to do what’s right:-

Premium Member What I Gave

I gave you everything
All that I possessed
You took my heart 
Grasping it with disdain 
Inflicting pain
What did you gain?
You squeezed with greed
The final drops
To quench your burning thirst.
	You took what I gave
	And made me your slave.

I gave you everything
All my inner self
You took my soul
Moulded it to your taste
With utmost haste
You chose to waste
Within your claws
In frenzied mood 
You stuck relentless fangs.
        You took what I gave
	And made me your slave. 

I gave you everything
All my reasoning
You took my mind
Stripping it to the ground
With deaf'ning sound 
Ripped all you found
Insatiable 
To nourish needs 
To fit your scheming plans.
        You took what I gave
	And made me your slave
	Forever.

Premium Member How Great Thou Art

He left this world as he entered, helpless
On the edge of darkness into the unknown
While I soundly slept undisturbed in my bed

Got the call in the dark dead of night
Reasoning to myself it was a relief
Except reason rules the head, not the heart
And I was sorrowed he had passed
That in his final moments he was alone

This song of praise, this burial hymn
Heralds the end of decrepitude and pain
October came and went and you were gone
Under a grey and misty mournful sky

And so you have earned your peaceful rest
Reunited with Jackie - your one true love
To sleep in the hope of the resurrection

Premium Member When the Gift of Giving Has Gone

Have you longed to give your heart just for the sake of giving?
Withheld for years, for pain and tears spark fear that steals from living 
a full, enriched, and glorious life where joy outweighs the sorrow ~
one in which one yearns to live, believing in tomorrow.

And if you thought to finally give what’s ached to be set free,
to make a change, jumpstart your heart, within a moment be 
everything you hoped for but could never quite conceive;
then, once again, encountered thieves who lie, cheat, and deceive...

Would you then quit, throw in the towel, no more to fight again; 
or hold on tight, steadfast, and strong and pray that love will win? 
Engaging in a battle as such may introduce defeat, 
but walk away and casualties will knock you off your feet. 

Consider this, if it is true that earth is heaven’s floor,
then love should rule ~ a truth transcribed upon each person’s core.
Could we succeed in loving self as much as we love others,
we just might heal and bear the strength to stand aside our brothers.

Then, we could all give from the heart with kindness and compassion
for fear will lose all reasoning when love becomes the fashion.

Yesterday's Smile


It was a smile beeping to create laughter-
A wonderful influence through then till now... 
For all and sundry to dream ease after
Lips worrying of morrow's thoughts  disallow

The smile yesterday film with sincere care;
It's such a class innocent age ensnare, 
Without the mastery of change-
Where each gets to be of range
Cum means, mode or form it takes become fair. 

It was just to be glad in pure madness, 
A take off doubt that beautify cool mind, 
That doesn't watch out for others sadness
But track down tease that might make care go blind... 

Such smile grace Joy's stake to uphold all in unison-
Switch on peace; log out quiet comparison, 
A slightly different way not shown
To all those who care love be grown... 
Cover extra miles for such free medicine. 

It was part every past desire again, 
To redeem lingering walk that wish to run... 
Before legs become weak to bear such pain;
Like how cheeks struggle to chuckle off fun

Such smile hearts break to keep fearless thrill cool, 
Leaves on wet seeds long sowed far away school
By which real hearts learned to keep, 
Reasoning views that make care weep.. 
With all it takes to parting drowning pool.

Pressing Matters

I have the need to lose all senses
The need for the mind to lose all reasoning
A troubling world where emptiness shelters
A nothingness to ultimately be asking

And they do not come
Perhaps never will again for all I know
Every single thought with nowhere to run
Where is life living to never yet behold?

Falling away into ensuring depths
Reinventing ways for tasks never met
And do analytical theories often crept
With a thousand tears, I have yet wept

I need to stop thinking
To stop asking unfounded questions
Yet I cannot stop myself asking
When moments but presents doubtful reasons

I tried to suppress but my mind oppress
A seeming life of its own beyond control
A lesser life for an ever mind to never rest
Is there truly life to never behold?

Silent thoughts could cure us all

You ever had the time to explore your ideas to the deepest depth of your mind.
To follow the reasoning you have created to the end of the line
Have you had the time to realize the implications a child's story written in good ryme
Could have on the next generations for as long as that story resides on the tongues of those who will share it

I am curious if it ever hits us in are busy life's
Busy chasing things we used to never need 
And forming opinions that are never right
Because the truth must grow but that can't happen with a poison sees

The time they take from us forcing us to live up to the ideals 
That they have reinforced about expectations 
And how this governs whose worthy of what
From the smallest material thing to the biggest spiritual need which is love

So next time you have a second if the realization finds you
And you wish yo share the secret the world has a way of binding you
Because the truth must grow so instead of speaking what you heard to people who won't hear
Find someone who lives by it and has been denied all but exciaistance and fear

Do not shake your head at him your silent thoughts we hear
Always be positive because spoken words are not the only words that heal
It's always better if you speak in kind
So here to you silent one for finding a way to shine
Light on someone when you could of easily walked on by

I just want you to know its appreciated it
And that it's not unnoticed 
Your the kind that makes a difference 
The kind who has a purpose 
And still you take the time to remind a poetic 
Mind that has clearly left his prime that even he is not worthless
