On Lactose Intolerance

Gotta take a pill
So I can eat
Another meal
But when I take
Another pill
It creates
Another bill...

Each shoe,
a life He knew,
buds of His olive tree-
next time perhaps,it could be you..
or me !

Hate a sign of failure.

Peace a sign of happiness.

Notre Dame
  now maimed
terror's imprint
  hate proclaimed

Notre Dame
  ravaged, lame
intolerance aflame
  for shame, for shame

Notre Dame
  great holy name
fearful to blame
  ~ to the world inflame


Not for the ND contest...

In times of discord and debauchery
the need to tell the whole world the truth
yet who knows what is truth today
the powers to be, a mask
that of intolerance
to manipulate
each living day
coached to be
passive
dumb.

and it dawns on me
while straightness
aims for conformity
it seems to clutter
people's brains
with madeup rules of
shoulds and musts
that snowball
spitefully into
rampant
venomous
chaos

An infant death of thought!

Lives a feeble mind'

Like deception of perception,

But intolerance is bad reception'


the intensity of the physical,

And the perceptual effect'

Lives you victimized and helpless,


Because a choices of an individual'

Aligned with a given idea..!!!!...

In my little garden 
I will sow seeds of
compassion and understanding.
I will nourish these seeds
with persistence and trust.
I know that my garden will 
grow slowly, and may need to 
have the weeds of intolerance and
greed , plucked out by their roots.
But peace, when it comes,
will be a harvest of joy....

My Declaration of Humanity

I declare, to all humans, to hold up the rights given each soul on their creation. 
The rights of inherent worth, love, and forgiveness.   
I deny hate, intolerance, and greed.
Perfect? No.
I am not.
I am Dan, and I make this declaration under the eyes of God.
One small thing-
Will you do the same?...

...In fact it seems that some intolerance
actually does make a good deal of sense,
it serves to drive evil out of our space,
allows us to live a life somewhat safe.

If we were to tolerate everything
then life would be short, and terrifying,
and though the very thought might leave some cold,
intolerance, sometimes, plays a useful role....

I hear snapping jaws of intolerance
and hatred, dripping with bile of
irrational anger: stoked, stroked, fired
by pseudojournalists and narrow-minded
commentators spinning fabrications
like deadly spiders in darkened holes,
each web of deceit mending the false
strands, repeatedly sheared by truth,
how dare they take the sacred name
of painted Patriots protesting....

     DIVORCE


    Developing deep differences disturbing mutual dependence.
    Impatience , intolerance , irritation.
    Violation of valuable vows.
    Oaths taken overall obsolete : Offensive action on obstinacy.
    Romance rotten : Ready to rescind relationship wishing relief.
    Continuous complaint not to compromise in conjugal life.
    Ending in divorce....

Intolerance
when we are so indigent in love
for others they
appear obtuse
their every remark
egregious to our ear.
It is a human weakness.

Intolerance
the delirium of self,
a delicate imbalance between
ego and self-hate
that one can mediate with patience
to bring the awakening
of understanding
a heart to tolerate
and the blessing of God to
consecrate.

Intolerance, Our Downfall
Written: by Miracle man
8-10-2019

Hatred has its finger,
On each trigger pull.
Intolerance abounds,
And man’s heart seems full.
It’s true guns kill,
But the heart is the cause.
This will never be fixed,
By enacting more laws.



Proverbs 16:24
Pleasant words [are as] an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, 
And health to the bones.

Rancid tomato
decaying slowly.

Every ounce of me
pressed out.

Throbbing head and
aching bones.

My body crushed
under expectation.

Not knowing how long
life will sustain. 

Ruptured wounds
slowly decompose. 

Losing color from
my veins.

Nobody notices while
I’m bleeding out.

Everyone discards
rotten tomatoes.

I remember this word, when it was a veritable curse;
It spoke of  actions, beliefs, feelings and ideas that were
reprehensible and indefensible, only worthy of our condemnation

I remember when it was a vile and shameful descriptor; 
It was synonymous for ignorance, hate, injustice, inhumanity
It was abhorrent, it was unforgivable, it was.....intolerable

Intolerance..... what has become of you?...

Say, have you seen Charity
She hideth I know not where?
I search for her sweet song of love,
Have you seen her pretty face?
I have been searching every place.

Look! see that dark corner there,
Yonder stands Intolerance and 
His brothers Greed and Envy-
There-is that their sister Malice
peering through that curtained window?

Compassion too has disappeared-
perhaps he dances some far off
forest glen- with Charity?...

What I like is education,
what I hate is pride.

I like being my self because,
am smart,
I pledge,
I fight,
I stand against,
abuse,
intolerance,
and harassment.

I will fight for our rights,
I will not stay silent in the faces,
of teachers and learners.

What we need,
and want is education,
but starting from now on.

I will work together with my,
teachers to create more exclusive,
schools for all...

if bombs fall on a
far off place can CNN
make us feel the pain

woman lies about 
her color do we color
her in black and white

man massacres nine
innocent souls yet some care
more about burnt flag

Charley Cotton blames
the dead for dying because
they didn't want to kill 

a flag flies above
intolerance lives below
hate lives between them

emancipation
reshaped a nation don't fly
stars and bars no more...
