all should like to be a part

absolutes just exist in

Mother's sacred seeds
slide into Earth's slick sliming
soil of post-secular soul 
for sublimely sticky
ego-systemic surrender....

Aquamarines

the secular bay
surrounding the open wooden docks 
becomes my new home
I love to feel the sunshine
return to the outer zones

He loved his God every day
Sending arrow prayers his way
Lifting his praise in simple patter
Amidst the kitchen noise and clatter
Not separating secular,from the latter.

Particular Reason

Reason for doing did not find particular
Car rolled over and accident was vehicular
After begging nd also borrowing
Had experience which was harrowing
Believe in God and cease to be secular.

The 'N' Word

Some
people
of color,
diminutives
of a secular order adherent
superior echelon, stigmata
decoratives
in lieu of
a good
term.

Tourists traipse over sites.
The necropolises
Team with the secular;
Teasing mortality.
Trauma and terror marked,
Tasked with introspection: 
To learn ‘Never Forget’.

HOLIDAYS-- Cinqku


Midnight
black Friday
turkey burping
tryptophan tornado
red ink

Church bells
echoing
remembrances
disturb the secular -
rebirth

Greed sparks
the ravenous cravings
of a secular mind.

With insatiable hunger 
their spirits covet
desiring beyond need.

Insensitive humans
cannibalize their brothers
with no end in sight.

Where is compassion 
when legalities 
have no morals....

Blues evoke emotions
Blooms of secular folk
Born of toil and work songs
Blend of lyrics and notes 
Base in pitch makes sadder
Beats got faster and hailed
Best of music genres

The bard of Avon live
Long live his renowned name 
I gather his words yo become a dictionary 
His lexical usage are more secular and diagnostic 
I move forward with literature inspired
By him and his works 
The sonnets he wrote calligraphes the venom
The venom of wisdom...

A baby born in a secular state
Of parents belonging to different race
It will decide to what faith
It owes its allegiance and its prayers. 

A baby growing up in a secular state
Of parents belonging to different race
Unsure of its faith, unsure of its fate
In the end, he ends up falling from grace....

Therapeutic tipping points

purposeless ego life

Repurposes meaningful

Whole ReGenerative Systems

rooted in nonviolent communications

Utopian only in the eyes of the incipient yet vastly virtuous inverse commanding 
leagues of the damned. Unbound in a secular disposition it rots, the treaty of the 
voracious. A reciprocal nexus lapsing into a grave valor. Inter-dimensional seals torn 
asunder for control. Looping utopia, learning untold evil....

I have never been the same, 
after watching, the abandoned

moon, rising gracefully, 
and becoming secular. There 

were no words, no speech;
but a biological war had

started between the shadows, 
like gondolas in the air.

You unexpectedly turn blue.
Somebody had left the bloody footprints.

Life invites deeply sacred purpose
when Love widely integrates
enlightened meaning
within co-invested minds,
passion,
from balanced bodies,
co-operating integrity
of healthy wealth's
most resilient potential

Life engaging 
deeply felt sacred mess
co-operatively owned and managed
EarthTribe clarifying purpose....

If muses
have sacred meanings
deeper
and before secular evolving purposes,

As ordained vocations
are to painful employment,

Then what music
would
could
should we prefer outside
to health care inside
digest?

Together peaceful
in resonance

Deeper
and before traumatic
warring
wearied
worn out dissonance....
