As long as I can remember,
I have felt my mind was fundamentally different.
Unreachable.
It mirrors the terrifying abstraction of deep space -
an expanse defined by infinity.
The human brain is hardwired for boundaries;
we demand a genesis and an apocalypse,
a defined start and an ultimate end.
We instinctively recoil from the truth that something can simply exist
without precedent or terminus.
That nothing preceded the cosmic void, and nothing will succeed it.
To contemplate an existence without borders
is to stare into an abyss that refuses to be known.
My mind operates in that same silent,
unreachable forever.
Is the UK a democracy.? Or has it slid to an
Un-sound autocracy.? Where a sucession
Is handed down.' And this not soley of the
Crown.?
When did due proven process, and the peoples voice? Become trampled down.?
Along with freedom of the electorates choice.' How can any such rumoured move be
Sound, what former precedent be found.?

Father above
You alone
Thank you for the new day to rise
Being a blessing to recognize
Guide me through the day and night
Give me a breakthrough when I encounter a plight
You are who I seek
Help me to stand strong and not weak
Keep me humble on your solid ground
Show me how to encourage others
Uplift my soul in your good news
Embrace me in being inspired and enthused
When telling of your goodness, help me to speak of your truth
Surround me in your spirit in blocking the Devil out
Daily as I move about
Assist me in not letting the unbeliever to challenge me in refuse
You are my King and I am your devoted Servant
Heavenly Father, enrich me in daily Wisdom and understanding
Keep my Faith strong
You are my uplift
Deliver me from approaching evils
Help me stay away from questionable personalities
The get along spectrum
You are my purpose
Let my spiritual light be obvious
Let the unbeliever see in curious
This I pray
Heaven’s gateway
Assurance everyday
Everlasting among
Amen
A court-ordered fist full of responsibility.
An anonymous man, unraveling beneath the weight of his own faulty circuitry.
Infidelity sparked a chain of conformity—one so unfortunate, it defied precedent.
His kin, stripped of their once-rooted masculinity, wandered into an unfulfilling life.
When faced with strange anger, they clung to a mask—gleaming with false superiority.
Only a fool’s bargain could birth such a belief:
That fatherhood was never his choice,
But a manipulative ploy by a siren
Intent on masking her own deceit.
Though her intentions seemed dubious,
He clung to his delusions.
He chose alliance with a malicious visage—
A portrait of discontent and whispered wishes.
He refused to relent.
But in doing so,
He became consumed.
Exhausted by the very aftermath
Of the rattled child
He once claimed to care for.
Harshly treated at 'so called' court.. whose only scales
Are visual.' In pure truth' such ruling is naught..No precedent of goodlaw given .' The judge surely needs to
Be forgiven.' Such blatent an affront the health and life, in
A country with indiginous; aging entrenched; its truly most rife'
This is un-fair, un-balanced and conspiricy in act, i see it was
All pre-meditated, in the whole proceedure; observing only the facts.'
Man weds cockroach in church ceremony
Guests munch on freshly grilled abalone
Pastor upholds his sworn duty
Lectures bride and groom on infidelity
Barely two months into marriage
Tiny baby cockroach appears in a carriage
Headlines shout out the bad news
Seems Mrs. Cockroach was groped and abused
Minister contacted Planned Parenthood
Lacking precedent, post-full-term abortion approved
I was born here to live might,
I see the interesting power of life.
So love the people with your heart,
Forgiving people will be easy and light.
Don't praise the greedy briber,
Don't give in and support cruelty.
He becomes also a crime rider,
Even supported them not frequently.
Who gives ass, becomes whore in brief,
He does not care about the homeland.
The mother says curses in grief,
Who gave the order to the killer band?
The order to shoot came from the president,
It means you can't rule your own country.
The Kazakh longing for freedom precedent,
Why should one be a slave of a foreign country?
Why is repeated hostile incident?
Why Kazakh can't he express his claim?
When getting rid of one president,
Why does the second one cheat again?
It won't happen!
No, it won't be like this forever!
This government will fall sooner or later!
Many people regret their actions never,
Still crying, regretting, and crying better!
America’s next president,
Trump goes by the past precedent
And makes it not just great,
The greatest real estate,
Makes it almost a continent.

Poet’s note: And why not? Trump first wanted the US-built Panama Canal back to it, and then the whole of Greenland apart from eyeing Canada as the 51st State. Sure, he comes from real estate business, and US has the past history of acquiring lands: Manhattan from local inhabitants in 1626, Louisiana from France in 1803, and Alaska from Russia in 1867 (facts based on Second Opinion, Times of India, 8 Jan 2025)
I really don’t know how long it has been
That parmesan comes shredded from businessmen
We need a president
To set the precedent
To help make America ‘grate’ again
Wayne followed every traditional route. His ignorant bliss bid others chart his course. Comfort was in knowing all carried precedent form. Locked doors blocking every end. Turn left, then right, again and again. Would they lie? Did they lie?
road trip to nowhere

This is a complexly simple piece,
It's a creation's toil to put into words thoughts about His creator, who made the world with the words of His mouth, without precedent.
Olodumare
The infatomable mystery above human existence.
The Lord of all lordship
The most creative creator who created creations with the capacity to create.

The one whose power is unlimited to the limitations of mortal discoveries and imaginations.
Olodumare
You are faithfulness, even when my mess makes me a fool.
You are meticulously detailed in the expression of Your love for the one who goes astray.
Olodumare
You still the waters before leading me beside still waters
God is what You are, regardless of human experience.
Olodumare
It is You who makes, mars, and remakes.
And Your dominion is dominance over every dominating human philosophy.
And to Your Majesty, I have come to say 'thank you'.
The fox quakes with delight
Means testing winter fuel
what a future precedent
Already ditching the social care plan
They say they have a black spending hole
so spending must abate for a while
Tax your January private schools
and who else
They ride roughshod over the old
tax forms for the lot
They collect monies
you've never read about
like inheritance tax
