crutch for the unenlightened
Support system,
for the crippled mind
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2017)
Artists and poets use lies to reveal the truth.
Politicians,
and the unenlightened who support them,
only use lies to bury the truth.
You fling words
with the same concern
as skimming stones
offhandedly
and
unenlightened
not once
recognizing
the escalating consequences
upon the delicate ecosystems
of the human psyche
Always Be Careful During Elections. Frequently, Governing Hypocrits Initiate Judgements.
Known Liberals Make New Opponents Pay. Quickly, Republicans Share Their Unenlightened
Views, While X-factors Yield Zero.
When democratic gratitude
performs with politically positive
caste-abolishing attitude
Then autocratic certitude
and kleptocratic magnitude
do not negatively deform
with unenlightened
and disempowering
caste-preserving platitudes.
Commonalities shared in true spirit
Congruent in every sense of the word,
Like souls drawn together;
Though the unenlightened deem them absurd.
Unfettered synaptic responses
Birthing emotional literary compilations,
Wholehearted unadulterated creative endeavors;
Soliciting the world’s adulation.
"Oh, wisdom,
why do you constantly elude my perception " In agony
the unenlightened man inquired.
"I have never eluded your perception my dear Man " Replied
wisdom with a sigh.
" I have been patiently waiting for years now for
your conception to appear."

Wherein do dreams lie in your philosophy?
In the realm of a deluded mind?
In the chasing of mere fantasy?
Wherein does love go in your own mastery?
In surrender only to the world?
In check to give to one completely?
Wherein do hopes lead to sorrows only?
In a promise that clings to its vision?
In a heart that wants but joyous unity?
Two problems,
or
Two different angles,
Positive,
or
negative,
backward,
or
forward,
Approachable,
or
non-approachable,
Cooperative,
or
un-cooperative,
Awared,
or
unwared,
awakened
or
un-awakened,
A subject of life,
Enlightened,
or
unenlightened
But
A path of Death,
A fear of darkness,
Then
An achievement of light.
Imitate, emulate, the way of the primate
unenlightened spirits control and subjugate
Your eyes can't see and your ears can't hear
that loss of the known is your actual fear
Everyone talks, but few people know
that change is crucial and needed to grow
Pry your eyes open and keep your heart pure
get acquainted with yourself and you'll know that for sure
Form:
Bricks,
carefully placed together
upon the foundation of half-truths and lies
published everywhere
twisting minds to the other direction
towards a hall covered with fool's gold on the front
In the shadows,
the silver-tongues hold the real platinum
tons of it
equal in value to a billion bills
while they watch the unenlightened
trust their mythology
as if they're angels
May you soon return
not as disempowered
disabled
and woefully unenlightened,
trespassing against integrity,
against peace
and restoring healthy justice
Nor even as an honored
LeftBrain dominating guest.
May you soon return
to our compassionate Home,
where loving voices
courageously resound
for co-empowering dances
curiously sung
in co-enlightened scales
of benediction.
the seeing child
exotic and special
an old soul
she had a history
unknown to those unenlightened
understood by the others
she saw well beyond her flesh years
the villagers flocked to her
asking for her advice
she was the shaman of their village
at earth age eight
understanding better than most
sharing a soul past
with those who would listen
more often those who were willing to hear
All Hallow's Eve
A new year,
A new cycle.
Time to prepare.
Gather the crops.
Children Beware.
Ghosts and Goblins
And Faeries alike,
Will give you a scare
On Halloween night.
The blood moon is rising
Colossal and blazing.
Giving light to the covens
Gathered for praising.
So all who are frightened,
Afraid, suspicious,
Unenlightened,
Stay inside your home.
On All Hallow's Eve
The witches will roam.
Said the old widow cook
to the drag queen son
feeding his/her dying abusive dad,
while offering her nurturing donation:
"I don't want your money.
We're not savages, yet."
Other words
that might have come to
desecrating mind:
not for sale, yet
not that victimized
not that wounded
not that uncivilized
not that poor
not that disenfranchised
not that disempowered
not that unenlightened
not that devastated
not that resourceless
not that dispassionate
not that judgmental
