in contemplation-
incarceration frees up
thoughts into a dream
Inspired by Abe's photo of Martin Luther King
Never violent
Only hopes for unity
Incarcerated dreams
* For Abe's "Birmingham Jail" Dr. Martin Luther King challenge
Down deep in Dixie
We have long heeded his call
(And still pay the price)
...For Abe Lopez's picture contest of Dr. Martin Luther King
We have flown the air like birds
and have swum the seas like fishes,
but have yet to learn the simple act of
walking this earth as brothers and sisters.
When Martin Luther King told me,
"Civil Rights suit me to a T"
I could see what he meant
For my placard was bent
So it read, " ruth will make you free!"
The Catholic Church added the 7 books of the "apocrypha"
To the Bible after the Protestant Reformation.
Luther took them out during the Protestant Reformation
Blazing
Razing
Hazing
Fazing
Anarchy on a blazing, razing course
Driven by a hazing, fazing force.
Late, iconic R&B singer, Luther Vandross
Sang with a satin voice with coats of gloss.
As hitter of notes he never could go wrong.
"Dance With My Father" his last hit song.
Will having a dream
As did Martin Luther King
Bring YOU notoriety
Probably it won't
But Dreams are good for the soul
I wish all could have such DREAMS
INSPIRED by and DEDICATED to JOSEPH SPENCE
Free to be
Free to be me
Free to choose
Free to lose
Free to let go
Free to say no
Free to live
Free to forgive
Free from my past
Free at last
Inspired by Martin Luther' king's quote'Free at last,Thank God
Reading My Catechism
Remember reading my catacism,
And problems regarding rascism;
Am apprehensive,
And also sensative;
Definately is causing cynacism.
Jim Horn
God bless Martin Luther King.
Was his name originally Michael?
I pray for the day when the world is blessed so see
the importance of being unprejudiced, honorable and fair…
Blessed to understand the words of Martin Luther King Jr.
who said:
Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere
"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."—Martin Luther King Jr.
Honoring Dr King
Loneliness
Odious
Violence
Eliminator
I fell in love with a computer
Not for the sex, for it is neuter
It came without name
Oh my! What a shame!
I googled one and up came Luther.

Every man goes to bed.
Every man sleeps.
Men dream dreams.
We keep dreaming.
Praying not to stop the Lutheran dream.
‘ I have a dream’,
‘ I have a dream’,
that one day…
on and on and on,
the dream continues.
What have you dreamt so far?
Martin Luther King, Jr.
When innocent dies,
Whole universe cries,
Even of dear earth,
We can hear, outcries,
But selfish human being,
Never even sighs.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
a leader, a statesman
a preacher, an inspiration
Robert F. Kennedy
boyish, vulnerable
beloved, fiercely capable
Ponder a moment, will you? ~
How great America might be
Had she blended the words
and the works of these two
Free to be
Free to be me
Free to choose
Free to lose
Free to let go
Free to say no
Free to live
Free to forgive
Free from my past
Free at last
Inspired by Martin Luther' king's quote'Free at last,Thank God Almighty,Free a
last' & by john 8:34-36

I have a dream
like Martin Luther King
I dream of perfect days
full of holidays and birthdays
I dream of no more hurricanes
and no more terrible pain
I dream of happiness
and no more sadness
I dream of all this coming true
but most of all I dream of you
I am grateful
(heeding the words of Martin Luther King)
when it comes to this life
knowing, exactly, what to choose
exactly what I can bring
To try no matter what happens…
no matter when or how…or where…
to choose love
because hate
is much too hard a burden to bear.
Meir Kahane, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, John F. Kennedy
All gone by the assassin's bullet
My blood chills at
the thought of another gunshot
A friend told me - they know what they are getting into
He was right!
But still - my blood runs cold
Doesn't yours?
Form:
pushing
hard
against
the world
of oh too serious
poetry and smugness
sex
sexuality
sensuality
sensibilities
seeminglessly
seeming stupid
endless etudes
precluded poems
of it wasn't me it was
my muse who told me to
to do so so I had a dream
Martin Luther King wet dreams
Form:
What hurts most is not the words of my enemies
But the silence of my friends
A quote from Martin Luther King
Have you kept quiet
When you should have spoken up
Has this meant
Unnecessary suffering for people
You care about
Where were you in their time of need?

From out
of my dream
I awoke
to the melodious
voice of Martin Luther
King—
the drum major’s
legacy
continues to fuel
me
towards the justice
we deserve—
look out injustice
you’ve been served:
All hail to Jah
letting freedom ring
as we shout hurrah
celebrating
our lion—Dr. King!
