The Choice

Fame is 
Contingent 
On 
One of two 
Possibilities

Complete 
Rebellion
Or 
Absolute 
Capitulation

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2016)


contemporary adversaries

contingent plans for evolving
without withdrawal . Steadfast
characters in play on all fronts
present and accommodated
by the resistance.  Otherwise
thoughts lean through
one another's meaning.
Leading is heard of
Naught sheperded

Reka Gugora

You taught me that love is a lie.
You taught me that love is conditional.
You taught me that you are a hypocrite.
You taught me that morality is contingent on utility.
You taught me that "love is not enough".
You taught me that love is a lie.

Forever

I do not need you 
You do not complete me

You are rather a part of me
Like an atom without energy

The driving force behind my thoughts
My actions always contingent upon yours 

Without your binding glue 
I am an unfinished puzzle 
 
I do not need you, I want you
To have and to hold

From this day forward
Until forever

Used to think that happiness 
Was contingent upon striving
If only we can obtain ______
Then we’ll really start thriving

Leads us to chasing our tail
Continually stuck in high gear
Yet there's a path to clear the air
To make the grasping disappear

Take stock of what we have now
Notice the pieces are already in place
To invite happiness to our doorstep
If we embrace today and end the chase

Left To Mother

And so as to contingent plaintiff's skoal,
I registered defenses as to knoll,
no day dreams to combine, out of control,
observance of regret, no time to toll!

And so I spied tomorrow, wisdom's goal
forever, as God signing, here to foe.
My courage intertwining met the role
the Mother, left to pining, her extol!

The Mother, left refining risk of owe ~
the Mother, God's designing . . . of a soul!

God's Law and Being Stringent

Each Day With God's Law

Each day with God's law shall become longer;
Do concentrate on and it soon will be stronger,
And in any weather,
Brings things together;
Straightens out my life while being a rearranger..

Contingent Upon Being Stringent

Are things that depend upon being stringent;
Also contingent when you become stringent;
Compare
And share;
Having been lenient and for your sins repent.

Merry Me

The world in generality
as to the knowledge of known knower
in between reasons, senses and perceptions
is a matter of clarity
on becoming merry
as oppose to being merry

The matter of worldly parameter 
is of dictating representation
of liberating indoctrination
in attaining truth
despite the contingent sublimity
and deciphering the apparent symbols of parables
in order
as if by fashion
to arrive to an indubitable state of merriment

Score

Oh well the being, mine the floor
of outstretched firmament not lore.

Unsettled ~ yea, but profound more
observance not contingent store.

But giving, give I thee my floor
to walk upon ~ my  love as for.

To wait upon as grace implore
I count the time, but ever more.

And love thee so, not adding ~ poor
with Holy will that lengthens shore.

I lengthen faith to thy restore,
not fated, but God's course explore ~

That underrating loses score!

Nowhere To Be Found

the other day i stumbled upon
something i'd been trying awhile,
to find but it was contingent on
my memory being more versatile

to where it was when last seen
by me or anyone else i think,
not right or left but in between,
recalled location my missing link

with much glee i picked it up and
my palm turned and rolled it around
what occurred after memory offhand
said it was nowhere to be found

now where did i put that fourth stanza?

You had such a hold on me
I lived your truths
Sacrificing my own

You withheld love 
For what reason?
Anticipating what outcome?

I do not need your approval
My love for you is not contingent
On whether or not you know how to show me unconditional love

Because I understand that to heal myself
I need to reach out with the first olive branch.
I am reaching out to claim you at this second.

Prayer Said

Perilous assumption, the faith I've read
my mind, my mind, the tone of led
is not contingent on my tread
but hope in virtue's seaming knead!

The evermore, I vacate head
and pray, accomplish what God's said,
no idling force, depicts instead
there must be action, leadings fed!

Oh, path's dissentious rise from bed
creating logic, fear not dread
by peace's hodge-podge, stealth unwed
some oneness, trust's lodge, copious, shed!

Is prayer, surmounting, higher . . . . . said!

Helpless

The clock ticks slowly
As the sunlight peers into the room
Innocent and helpless
Not far removed from the womb

Unaware, yet troubled
Strong are the instinctual drives
There’s a compulsion to live
And a irresistible urge not to die 

Innate are the are the longings
The prerequisite are the needs
The true quality of the crop
Is contingent on the nurturing of the seeds

The clock ticks slowly
As the darkness peers into the room
Innocent and helpless
Not far removed from the womb
