Stoicism is easy
When you're...

***Insensitive.***

That 
Really
Works...

Bud.

Obvious Genocide

Toys in the bloody
Dirty and occupied streets
Children are screaming.

Babies are cold dead
B 1 Planes are bombarding
Poor dead civilians!

Bloody streets
It is Hell on Earth
No Heaven.

Human beings
Are cruel and sinful
Genocide!

No Justice
No peace on poor Earth
And no love.

Dead babies
Premature angels
Where is God?

Hospitals
Many dead toddlers
And mothers.

United
Nations are guilty
Weak and poor.

Censorship
Journalists are muzzled
And killed.

Democrats
Please wake up right now
To exhale.

Jo cannot
Silence the good Poets
In action.

No conscience
No humanity
And no love.

The Obvious Party

She's not 
The marrying type,
He wishes 
That he 
Were not so late 
To the obvious party.

Fire of Obvious Contradiction Love

A question eats my soul
Everything is relative
Or  is  everything of absolutes?

Because everything is together
If happiness or sadness are transitory.

In the passing of the hot time of love, it should be heal?

If only and only alone
Relativity is absolute
so me
Why should there be sadness?
Because everything, even sadness is relative!

I know that my love for you is absolute
And
The sadness of your distance may seem relative
But there is relativity that is absolute.
It means it is always
truly why?

This is an obvious contradiction!?

That's why I'm crazy 
My laughing is transitory and temporary
The sad of my love is more always .why?

Self Control

whims may become a blessing or a curse
pushing one toward certain ruin or worse
drinking from the deep well of evasion
well versed in dark practices of persuasion
fixating on dreams of what ought to be
avoiding what mirrors reality

totally free of social encumbrances
in spite of what the best assumption is
wandering through this life oblivious
hiding from anything too obvious
urge to be free of all expectation
jumped right into without hesitation

do not question need to swallow it whole
subtle art of self-induced mind control

Is the Obvious Answer An Answer Obviously

I bet you. a show that stops my dog from barking at the tv was kitchen Nightnares
unless he ate one
before on the show
Is the forth or the firth
the right froth the write fourth
in this sentence
soz i was inspired by something
questions with answers within them
Like who famously wore a Sherlock Holmes hat?

would world war 3
be the next or the last one

soz just an idea im throwing about

Heart Is Obvious

Gently as a swaying leaf
                              falling to earth
                                            as how I look at her
                                                                    Just a glance
                                                                              of a turned eye
                                                                     with a slight smile of
appreciation.

                  Beauty is youth
                                          overflowing
                                          yet tender
                                          The day shows brightly
                                          the imagination shadows
                                          I turn my head
                                          as she walks by
                                          Be coy while the heart is obvious....

Obvious Choices

You might be riding a wave of awareness. 
Withstand, endure, suffer, and strive.
Maintain a clear mind to unworn insights and wellness.
Once you've reached your last objective.

Always remember that life isn't a level playing field.
You get what you want or need every now and again.
Despite how awful or dismal the situation appeared.
You'll get beyond anything if you just have faith then.

In moments of hardship, we bear mistakes.
It is essential to maintain a firm grip on the reins.

Belaboring the Obvious

Never mind one's feet of clay, for not one soul is perfect. 

              Never mind what political party one swears allegiance to.

            Never mind all the crazy things one says from time to time.

            Never mind what sex one comes home to, or makes love to. 

          Never mind what name one calls God; if one knows God or not

 What matters above all; one's inner humanity. We're all flawed yet special!

Dream List - Just Stating the Obvious

Let us build an allied world built with peace
All people joining hearts across the sea
It’s how life on God’s earth was meant to be.

A world that has no animosity
Where love is measured by what’s in one's heart
No secrets to hide, no adversity.

Nothing’s worth war, could anything be worse
Hate, an emotion that makes living hell
Terror, a word that’s completely adverse.

Variety's the spice in life, they say
All nations are different and unique
If only everyone saw life that way.

Love's what it is, a gift, let it break free
To soar high as birds do when they sky roam
Free to follow the road to destiny.

We can't all conform to what's known as norm
God enters our hearts to show us the way
Who says what's normal, why we should reform.

God gave us love to aid the world twirl round
Where all are loved for who or what we are 
Does it truly matter where love is found.

Those who lack for nothing, learn how to gift
God is our judge at the close of the day
Just stating the obvious, my dream list.

When You Die - Just Stating the Obvious Poetry Contest

When you die
You are gone
It's goodbye

No one stays
On this earth
For all days

It is said
Past is past
Dead is dead

Done is done
And for whom?
Everyone

You won't know
When it's your
Time to go

Need I say?
That's the world
That's the way

That's the trade
That's the rule
No one made 

So come on
Live your life
'Fore it's gone

Just Stating the Obvious

In this world truth is not always black and white,
It comes in multi shades of gray,
But there are truths obvious in my sight.

I's obvious to me that God exists.
The beauty of creation testifies,
To His creative genius in our midst.

Good versus evil is a war being waged,
And the earth is the battleground.
Evil is of the devil and one day he'll be caged.

Murder is a crime and so is stealing.
Hate is such an ugly word,
While love is so appealing.

Honesty is a virtue to obtain.
Telling lies can only lead to trouble,
Being truthful can prevent much pain.

Every human being belongs to the human race.
The color of our skin makes no difference.
We all have the same Creator and are in need of His grace.

There are poor and there are rich among us,
Most of us fall somewhere in between.
It's a blessing when those who have are generous.

Now these things may be obvious to me but not to you,
And that's okay 'cause we are not the same.
But I'm convinced that these are true.

Just Stating the Obvious

There’s God and there’s the devil
Man’s caught in the middle
Who’s good and who’s evil,

There’s Heaven and there’s hell
More beautiful is the earth
Can anyone otherwise tell,

There’s sin and there’s confession
Then there’s the rule of law
To constraint further transgression,

There’s Koran and there’s Bible
Forget William Shakespeare
Man plays the role of the disciple,

There’s Politics and there’s Religion
Trapped like a rabbit
Man is the lost homing pigeon,

There’s lyric and there’s melody
You have Opera and rap
It’s time to end this parody,

You have pouring rainfall
There are lakes and oceans
Bubbling brooks and waterfall,

There are grass, shrub and tree
Man’s eternal soul
Forever craving to be free.

Just Stating the Obvious

If you speak will it not offend me
for I am as fragile as a crisp leaf
blowing on a silenced wind,
lost in the darkness of closed eyes.

If you look too long upon my visage
you touch the edges of aggression
battering my frail psyche
triggering conditioned reflexes.

If you hold the door open
you crush me with chauvinism
deny me my right to control
the access and egress of my soul.

If we should meet on either side
of a non-existent door
would we look at each other
without speaking
                              …… and wonder
                                                           ….WHY?
