Nothing

Nothing is

No is
Yes

At the end
confusional illusion

The accumulative miles could astonish,
All those tongues, with nary a story uttered.
All those eyes that never "saw" a thing.
All those soles, the antithesis of "only".
All those heels, still attempting to lift in silent dignity.

From a still shot, a dynamic response is invoked!!...

Antithesis of competition
Everybody will fight and fuss
But there has to be trust
Affinity
Empathy
Rapport
Group effort
It’s worth it to make it work...

FAITH = TRUTH

faith is the antithesis of proof,

yet...
truth comes from
the mind and the heart.

so,
if your mind is full of truth
your heart will be filled
with faith....

Some are born Harlem Mercedes
and cast their shadow wide
Turn the world around
with love and peace
Sapple as a Jamaican Calypso
you rode the island Sun
and gave your generational heart
An Aladdin's legacy of activism
of civil rights with Martin King
and the antithesis of Bush and Trump
Wisdom as cultured Wine...

ALL ALONE

Acerbic analysis awaits Annie.
                                               Allies augment angrily against
                                               Alicia’s apocryphal antithesis.
                                               Authentication arrests all arguments.

While the media loves Donald Trump
His mind is an acrid waste dump
He speaks from his ass
His mouth passes marsh gas
Thus he's known to us as Donald Rump


This idiot/moron was the leading story on the news shows for this Sunday.  This is a total waste of time and is mostly about TV ratings.  Go Bernie Sanders (the Trump antithesis)!!...

Trying might make us good ,intentionally 
For sake of blood lacking breath of visual 
Composers all around 
Reciting the benefits of loyalty 

Crop up again with idol mind
Craving for golden sweets
With pre-owned diamonds 
Isn't this antithesis 

Well known roots 
Lapse with faults 
Idol mind is a key to success 
Was an unframed judgement...

Born a sinner, baptize me in our love
Cleanse my soul with your sweet words
Each kiss a divine taste from above
In your arms I’ll find salvation 
That is if I’m worth saving
I’m the antithesis of saintly 
But I swear I’m a storm worth braving
Drench me in your holy waters
Show me I can be redeemed
The peace in your embrace
Brings more joy than I had dreamed...

The wise, before the mighty king stood, carrying nothing,
 
Surprised the sovereign, inquired where the Wise's belongings were. 

“All of value I possess, within me I carry” He replied!

The descent starts 
with a dance, of tears and fire.
A culture of lids
lowers the salt, the silver,
the gems.
Antithesis to cremate
a golden ascent.

The night long vigil had a
naked puff.
It will roll now in stasis.
The ash will take over the tongue
for a big lie. Faith healers stand
in a row. The empty hands
were getting a burial.

The toeless path will ride the
wheels now. Beyond the blue sky
there is no death.

Parents raise their young 
In efferent flavor of 
The new sunrise. 

But as the great star sets,
We become beasts that hunt
For nothing less than
Suppression. 

Medallions are too effervescent 
For this ridiculous perversion.
I stand center stage un-claiming
A sweated brow now. 

To anticipate silver is to
Masturbate an antithesis of meaning. 
This proposal disturbs my silence
And I refuse in a tantrum—revocation....

The room in the corner, 
With its three wood doors, 
Each heavier than before, 
A subtle air not of fear, 
Patient vents waiting to hear, 

Clenching at the scent, 
Umbrage and stale paint, 
Taste of turpentine and taint , 
Dust gracefully composed, 
Large eraser shards in throws, 

Senile light made rent, 
Lingering weight of lead, 
Below a layered graphite bed, 
Glows like the antithesis of chrome, 
A shallow doom drawn in monotone....

You’re here and I’m there
You’re found and I’m hidden
I’m foul and you're fair
You’re pure and I’m unbidden

I’m there and you’re here
I’m fiction and you’re truth
You’re tranquil and I’m fear
I’m aged and you’re youth

You’re here and I’m there
You’re gold and I’m coal
I’m self and you’re care
You’re give and I’m stole

I’m there and you’re here
We’re a ship without steer
You’re here and I’m there
We’re a house without stair...

With intelligence abounding,
His destruction is astounding.
From devastating habitat
Of species that could keep him fat.
To introducing toxic gas
That allow sun’s rays to pass.
With written history, science books,
You’d think he’d stop to take a look
At actions that could cause man harm.
But instead develops weapons,
So that everyone is armed
Is he creation’s antithesis?
Or evolution’s biggest mess?
Time only knows, and it won’t tell.
If future be Heaven, or if it be Hell...
