STATURE
~~~~~~~~~~
earth star chakra my killick, subliminal subpersonal connects me to core of planet’s centre, spinning yet rooted in quiet mirth
absorbing misaligned energy in sturdy girth
intuits heartfelt frequency exchanges
across planetary consciousness gauges
below Gaia’s benign surfaces it modulates
where own wisdomed faith undulates
steady Will humming stable solid secure
no other anchor would I endure
awareness finely tuned filamented fibres
reaches far flung corners shadowed or
light, without single flinch fight or flight
authority with divine responsibility dear
centring my substance as an emperor does
holding disciplined foresight unseen safe
signals settled velocities where I am to walk
intentions sure of next waiting chorded port
underground star exuding strength, cohort
of ages, missioning goals it never aborts
Ink with all our thoughts compressed
One hand
Four marks
A dream
Words spoken from a mouth once pure
A desire
A hope
To be seen
Our Earth orbits a plasmic star
Yet we pray
We love
We bleed
We love with values unlike one another
We make those choices despite one another
We hold the hands of massive mistakes
In stability
and instability
We’re seen
this king rulès by the people..By paliamentry decree'
Now the country for millenia, has been a Christian
Majority.. Defender of faiths.? Does he await a great
Change? And is Britain willing to endure untold pain?
Be strong
It may stormy today
Tomorrow will be sunny
Because how can it be
Rain forever.
Mosquitos complain to God 'bout the wind
They can't stable when the wind comes unkind
On the judgment day
God calls all to stay
Both can't attend at once for contrast sign

STABILITY
Though waves may break
Though mountains quake
I have a peace the wrong can’t know
In desert sands
In foreign lands
I have a joy where’er I go
In great alarm
In sudden harm
I shan’t be moved; He’ll strengthen me
When peoples melt
In dark that’s felt
My endless light He’ll ever be
When nations rage
When nations change
My King will never change at all
With every breath
In life or death
He’ll lift me up; He’ll hear my call
When days are dark
He’ll be my ark
He’ll save me from the raging sea
Like Noah, He
Will rescue me
Like then, right now He sets us free
He reads the heart
No end, nor start
Nor bounds of time or space has He
Since ancient days
His righteous ways
Have always been; they’ll always be
I know that He
Won’t turn on me
His Book won’t fade–not any page
His judgements stand
In any land
In any culture, any age
The past He knows
I know he goes
Before me, past what I can see
He stands by me
He’ll always be
My constant, my stability
A winter comes
With nonstop rain and extreme coldness
Flood, flu and running nose
Besides the long fight of covid
Besides the long fight of political stability
Besides the long fight of bribery
A winter-like weather comes to my country
A country of equatorial climate and beauty
With no sympathy
But only as a test of faith in the nature
I believe
Doomsday will never come
As man makes up a part of the world
And His world
My feelings I store on empty shelves of shoulders that don't hold much but selfish needs. Preserved in salt to heal wounds and burn at once so to not forget the labels that have tested time, Patience and strength. Throughout time ,
I have tested waters flavored with agony's pungent seasoning knowing it's not for me nor suits my palate but I don't know yet if I'm the rancid offering or if the additives are spoiled. Tasteless, dry, almost dust like texture dashed on an unfavorable dish will always turn stomachs and noses away from edible sources. Why would one turn down a feast of delicacy for a home cooked bland ass meal. I would but that's because I know the value of blood sweat and tears not just how to lick my plate clean, snap fingers and silver set before me. .
Stuck, staring, stumbling
Time stood still in awe of lives, for
Better or worst, yet alive
So her story goes asunder
Silenced by storms with thunder
And through it all, she stood
Held to heart of hope, and belief
Solitude jolts
Because!
Beneath skylight, she was whisked to life renewed.
*
Land immune to time
Devotion remains without
Love nowhere to thrive
Fly as air And flow like river ,
Be in your life As spotless mirror.
Don't stop at One place,
Grow up for your Life race.
Stay will make you pond,
It may break your many bond.
But sometimes it's necessary to stay,
As peoples stop at night and work whole day.
Everytime it's not necessary to flow ,
In the pond, lotus and waternuts grow.
You must always stay in your passion ,
And also must stay in your relation .
sometimes stability shows you as mature ,
and it will never let you fail, for sure.

HOW TO EMBRACE LIFE
Life is up to you
Either a confused strife
Or rev up your life
What to choose?
It's all up to you.
If stumble upon an argument
Accompanies disagreement
Inner commotion creates ripples
Our weaken system cripples
Differences break us apart
This pave the way to depart
If ready for peace
Issues ready to cease
Stability within
Stillness set in
Clarity touches to the core
Solutions come to the fore
What to choose?
It's all up to you.
