A Lifetime

We blindly traverse life’s vicissitudes,

Upheavals and harmony

An odyssey in search of love,

Beauty, truth and happiness

Lamented in moments of sorrow

Euphoric in joyous bliss

Recorded in hours, days and years

Till hands of death bring to cease.

A Murder of Crows

Late commers snap beaky throats,
mug with angry complaints.

A gathering
of de-frocked preachers strut
and preen, a tussled foraging, 
hustle, and riot.

Up in the branches brothers caw and jeer.
Upheavals come together,
those with more pluck, snatch and pilfer.

Wanton blackouts of carrion crows
crowd my eyes 
with their petty, ill-mannered crimes.

Premium Member Number Four: Wars and Battles

The outskirts of ruin, children of war,
Pass by upheavals, turmoils, turbulence,
Impacted scenes that tore, they must endure,
Safe from acts of war that was merciless,
Behind smiles and charms, home, away from war,
Now comes the battles, that adds to their scar.

Earthen Quakes

Little earthen quakes
Rumblings of the soul

Missives made of letters
Placed in ordered rows

Tales of ancient ruins
Never told before –

Little earthen quakes
Restless on the page

Telling little tales
Giving it away –

Aftershock upheavals
Pain, that trembles, grows

For the pen that wrote them 
Little did it know

Little earthen tremors
Never letting go –

470 Prayer for Endurance

470.

Prayer for Endurance



Oh Father God, we pray for endurance

That our strength we retain & enhance

Oh Lord Jesus, we ask to preserve all trials

That we be able to withstand all upheavals

Oh Holy Spirit, we beg for resilience

That we survive and maintain our existence

This we implore to our Lord God. Amen.

Memories Past

as memories past are in my head
my eyes are filled with tears
the anger long suppressed fills my being
emotions are rushing in, filling me with dread
awakening my long my long dead fears
my hate for humans all i'm seeing

now i'm back, and in control
emotions once again suppressed
and anger once again is buried
and i cannot help but wonder
during my emotional upheavals
why is it that i can't feel joy?

Premium Member No Rain

In life's harsh drought
Rain feels like a faint memory,
Seasons change quickly
Upheavals hurl

Dry thoughts like cinder
Flames of crackling wood
Burning with fierce heat
Spark consuming spark

Ashes in dry season
Hazy shades floating far
Ashy debris suffocate
Hazy grey mists obscure 

Dry months conspire
Tree pyres consuming,
What can we do
From far far away?

Premium Member Our Lives Rearranged

So many times our lives rearranged
    Resilient we are, accustomed to change

  Wars, Revolutions, Coups and Upheavals
    Plunder and Pillage and assorted evils

  Recessions, Depressions, Runaway Inflation
    Calls for austerity and eating food rations

  Bankruptcies, lay-offs, terminations
    Then all of a sudden, rejuvenations  

  So go with the flow, and just do your best
    Give yourself one leg up on the rest

Premium Member Lifes Upheavals

Life’s Upheavals 6-27-2016 Sometimes God uses some upheaval in our life, to remove us from a passing period of inaction. To stimulate, and restore our attention to Him, and away from some minor, earthly distraction. There’s a disparity in servitude and free living, servitude is being unconnected from our source. Suspended between heaven and earth was He, establishing a way, that from sin, we’d divorce.

Premium Member Confidence In Life

Where's the confidence in life
You're facing a controversial world
Of changes, chaos and upheavals 
But an optimist will see a chance in difficulty
A pessimist will see difficulty in a chance 
You have to try to live better
God only helps those who help themselves
Only trials, perseverance and efforts
Will accomplish something
A little accomplishment means 
A little confidence
Let's the confidence piles up
And you'll have eureka at last

Dusk

A mousy light filters a tracery of sunset, dappled beams succumb to gloaming. Evening stretches moments for the rescue of wreckages, to calm the upheavals of disheveled hours. Dusk softly pronounces its adieus, carries the bruised upon ebbing tides as children, they are brought out from burning houses. Upon a twilight cradle eventide glides each baffled breath along a dwindling shore, a Moses basket that dreams us unto dawn.

What does it mean to you?
When your own sasafr *ss is on the line,
the hope you had diminishes.

A Proud Boy is in your face
& has the final authority
A bad son shall end the likes of you.

With immunity he sheds blood
Crimson tidal waves of civil upheavals — never forget,
today's puff, may be your last cigarette.

An alien to you, to me you were sanctuary, 
a perishing human am I, violently 
I belonged, just like anyone.

Black Angel

Journeying through steep, 
narrow valleys into which 
sunshine never reached, 
experiencing jagged breaks, 
abrupt upheavals, 
gradual changes, 
to become 
unrecognizable today; 
an outsider not part of the 
warp and weave of strangers 
moving in individual bubbles. 
Mesmerized by crystalline depths, 
daydreams infinitely gentle
reached out and kissed 
my withered hand. 
The hole in my heart 
is being filled by words 
from a black angel's 
writing quill.

Four Seasons Ago

Four seasons ago my life was rebooted
A year process for it to be completed

Here are my learnings from the constant upheavals
Stop being against yourself for you have enough adversaries

Society is hellbent and fixated on life’s outcomes
Try more to focus on the process and its jewels

Faith in what you cannot see is eternal
Faith in what you can see is temporal

Whatever happened to you is either a gift or lesson
Rejoice evermore and do not let envy be your weapon
