They stare at me like they’re searching
for horns that were never there,
as if the Shadow at my back
must mean I crawled up from the pit.
But they never understood:
the Shadow follows me
because it recognizes its king.
I walk through their whispers untouched,
their labels sliding off my skin
like rain off obsidian.
They want me small,
want me guilty,
want me bowed.
But I was not built for their comfort.
I was built for legacy.
My Shadow is not a curse —
it is my inheritance.
It is the place where I learned
to see without eyes,
to hear without sound,
to rise without applause.
It is where I forged myself
in silence and in fire.
Let them look for horns.
Let them search for the devil
they need me to be.
All they will find
is a man who survived
every lie, every exile,
every attempt to break him.
And above my head,
glowing with the weight of everything
I refused to surrender,
is the truth they fear most:
I don’t have horns.
I have a crown.
A crown carved from nights
I should not have lived through,
a crown polished by every insult,
every dismissal,
every time they tried to make me
less than what I am.
I am the legacy they underestimated.
I am the Shadow they could not outrun.
I am the man who turned their fear
into sovereignty.
And when they finally look up,
when they finally see me clearly,
they will understand:
The Shadow was never proof of my fall.
It was proof of my throne.
Discrediting plausibility
by shredding their humility
to a place of vulnerability
devoured by inabilities
cowardice incompetence
showered into consciousness
empowered causing confidence
validation found in compliments
a false sense of accomplishment
resort to intense punishment
to knock down their competitors
who speak of truth not metaphors
that could reverse their actual course
see them falling through floorboards
far from craved credited applause
a status low as though blackballed
on salaries always needing more
survival gifting no rewards
a personality to be ignored
social skills which leave them bored
testing humans to their core
needing a win but cannot score
electrical without a cord
no plug socket or power source
as management you were assured
entitlement had power stored
defensive walls they reinforced
the canon fire rains then pours
constant drainage of resource
when liars reign without remorse
demonstrate through acts of war
axing allies no friends of yours
switching sides ending support
backtracking and invasions fall
forward thinking backward thoughts
two faced fronts fights are fought
defend positions within the fort
saving supply routes to the port
lowered standards poor results
lose respect face the onslaught
enclosing can’t escape assaults
laced with disgrace of dense insults
unsatisfactory falling short
the cost of power steeply soars
run out of bullets fight with swords
sticks and stones not canon balls
back to basics of infant schools
learning how the mighty fall
turns out you might be a fool
from the authority you adore
to unemployed and lost it all
from big and powerful to small
once important not anymore
once arrogant above the law
apparently now unloveable
a tyrant silenced by rivals
the outlaw downfall locked indoors
freedom within the prison walls
abusing boundaries horribly
so far beyond authority
explicitly and vicously
fully of inefficiency
faults and inability
soulless animosity
dethroned without the sovereignty
lost lonely in unpopularity.
From God’s unlimited storehouse of blessings*’ bounty
He rains heavenly bestowments with His sovereignty.
He grants wisdom, discretion, prudence without defilement
He's the Teacher instructing sanctification from sins' detriment.
Completely rescuing from hell’s destruction
The Saviour wrought eternal security of settled redemption.
Giving calmness with serenity’s bliss, midst stressful turmoil
He’s the Prince of peace refreshing against weariness-spoil.
With His strengthening might for faithful stewardship
The Master cheers along His joyous partnership.
In charity’s kindness with complete forgiveness
His pardon loads mercy’s vibrant brightness.
Guarding against iniquities and guilt’s terror
God Who is merciful upholds from fears’ horror.

The elliptical hums its sibylline canticle,
counting aeons in the marrow of my thorax.
Trainer whispers conspiracies;
I vault Himalayan escarpments, breath argent wind,
limbs pendulums of forgotten constellations.
Neon acolytes scroll ephemeral auguries;
mirrors, obsidian tribunals, reflect only decrepitude.
I seize dumbbells—orb of primordial sovereignty;
sweat ignites into microcosmic heliospheres,
celebrating the heresy of vitality
in a sanctum devoted to fragility.
The clipboard combusts in incense of imagined awe;
I pedal, I lift, I breathe—
each motion an imperial edict: mountain, river, comet.
I am venerable, absurd, immortal, human;
my laughter detonates Olympus beneath fluorescent firmaments.

Upholding our vows by His truth against cooling time...
Let’s salute Him for assuring us His answers in due time!
God triumphantly fights for our battles as we express to Him our heavenly quest.
He fills our emptiness with His provisions’ best
Leading our contentment-search to His divine treasure’s chest…
Let’s honour Him for opening to us His service-doors to their widest!
God triumphantly fights for our battles as we cleave to Him without ceasing.
He moves us to cling to the truth He’s expressing
Exhorting us to enjoy His gifts of divine choosing…
Let’s exalt Him for welcoming us to His kingdom’s blessing!

Mommy,
why do we need Presidential Alerts
right now
before I've finished my ice-cream dessert?
Because he's a scary guy
my son.
Why is he so scary?
Because he's a bully against health
and patriotic loyalty to Earth's future
multicultural life,
my well-nurtured daughter.
Why is he against health care?
He's for his own wealth development.
Why is he for his own wealth care?
Because his mother never taught him
health care begins at home
and must have interdependent room
to cooperatively spread out from there.
Why does health have to spread?
Because otherwise true wealth dies.
Why does wealth die?
Because Earth's climate quickly turns
toward global glacial degeneration.
Why is Earth going to hell?
Because we made some bad choices.
Who is We?
and why did We make bad choices?
Because We have bad habits
of settling for empty sovereignty
of a failing adult supremacy system.
Why is our system failing?
Because mature adults fail to ask enough questions
of ourselves,
and then with co-arising healthy others.
It seems the more I give Him praise in knowing His Name
The more beauty I see upon my ways, it's just not the same
I tell Him of His Sunrise and the colors throughout the sky
Every morning He has a new surprise who Reigns on High
What some so often miss always rushing to get no where
My prayer in a wish that they'd just become more aware
His birds just above the road and just look how he provides
To Him everything is owed a matter not having two sides
It's His Glory people come to see for man can't compare
The California Redwood tree or the peacocks simple flair
A prism of color in His cloud, the caterpillar soon to fly
His Glory screams so loud as do the Heavens in His sky
Perhaps you'll give Him a wink admiring what He's done
Then to save you you then realize He sent His only Son
A simple Lily in the valley it's beauty never to be noticed
Tell Him what you see and He'll tell you all you have missed
Psalms 148:5
Let them praise the name of the LORD:
for he commanded, and they were created.
We stand by faith in God for freedom’s quest
Toward restoration of liberty
While overcoming conflict’s painful test
As a nation of great sovereignty.
Toward restoration of liberty
Midst peaceful brotherly love’s creed and deed
As a nation of great sovereignty
We pray for blessed unity indeed.
Midst peaceful brotherly* love’s creed and deed
Blended with virtue-exercise to reign
We pray for blessed unity indeed
Smiting selfishness and haughtiness-gain.
Blended with virtue-exercise to reign
Kindness-zeal wins over suppression blight
Smiting selfishness and haughtiness-gain
Since citizens want to enjoy truth’s light.
Kindness-zeal wins over suppression blight
To let the world be inspired with peace-glow
Since citizens want to enjoy truth’s light
Prevailing over hate-aggression blow.
To let the world be inspired with peace-glow
Around fervent global congenial ties
Prevailing over hate-aggression blow
Hope seeks legal sanctions to quell children’s cries.
Around fervent global congenial ties
While overcoming painful conflict’s test
Hope seeks legal sanctions to quell children’s cries…
We stand by faith in God for freedom’s quest.
*Hebrews 13:1 Let brotherly love continue.

I’m the pair of fists belonging to Danny Rand’s identity
Along the ranks of Marvel’s super hero-integrity…
“Iron Fist” is my label against cowardice-instability
Powered to advance justice verity
Making my owner an incredible fighter, so mighty
Being a master of K'un-Lun's martial arts with brave superiority.
Having providing my handler a living weapon of excellent utility
I won over the dragon, Shou-Lao for victorious majesty…
Plunging into the fiery substance toward firm capability
I’m harnessed to channel chi energy’s responsibility
Toward amplified force, sans breakability
Willing to fight terrors of cruelty.
Here am I, helping my possessor for heroic functionality
Immune to pain and injury along hurt’s sensitivity
Always ready to rescue for the sake of good humanity
By healing others with my glowing powerful formidability…
Yet, in reality, I admit my non-existence in the eyes of GOD Almighty*.
Who deserves thanks, praises, glory and exaltation for HIS Sovereignty.
*1Timothy 1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
