Shenandoah cries
Voice of a Leader
Echoes of a Nation
Tomorrow only the beginning
The change needing a change
Soulful hope
Skies above in realize
Direction from Heaven
White House woes
Freedom, Wisdom and Rise
Bitterness through emotion
Far from the Liberty shores
Darkness plight
Wonder of the day, and the offspring of thought
Turnaround to oppose
No Slave shall be
Rebel no more
Freedom ways
Impact says
Pathway to a better life
No more

A black girls stance on self love

A black girls stance on self love 
Is one not often understood 
One that take years of healing 
One that understands the process of feeling 
Because in a world that shoves hate down our throat
You can't be surprised when we swallow the bare minimum 

The relationship between a black girl and herself 
Is one not

Step Stance

Dark chest
inhale your bite
exhale its shadow

wings that twisted pierce
like barbwire
cover your heart

black feet on glass
I watch my spine
still touch me

A raven cries
   give me my nights,
             give me my nights,

Filched formerly anatomical slender man me! Thus I take a pot belly stance!

Filched formerly anatomical slender man - me! Thus I take a pot belly stance!

Absolute zero escape
velocity gutted dance
sing days (contra and square),
cuz metabolic full abundance
abdominal adipose tissue acceptance
not in accordance
with light as a feather
physique I sorely miss lost acquaintance
the boy within forced admittance
as sure man tanks of fat did advance
shotgun marriage demanded allegiance
to pledge lifetime

"She so says,
        He must really love me because he just won't go away 
He must really care for me because he's ever present like the air, moves yet stays, Always  available awesomely so cares. Like Daddy God yet and still his stance stays.
He moves, moved quietly

Winter Stance Minichu

Now a hollow cloud I remember
Drops me from so high—
Melts off this forever.

My red in the thermometer's glass—
For I to ghost's gloom run
By mercury's clairsentience.

The frost's white blush—
A green blossom thud;
Winter withstood.

Now a hollow cloud I remember
For I to ghost's gloom run;
Winter withstood.

Premium MemberStoic Stance

Laboured breathing and bones weary
Yet vibrant heart, far from dreary
Gentle eye, echoing love’s sigh
Soul’s stoic stance, seems so eerie

To be as such, fear forms must die
That flag of love and light flies high
Poised, irrespective of outcome
Mantra of life being, retry

Within heart continues to strum
The gong of Om, God’s cosmic drum
Bliss magnetism pulsates inside
Music of spheres

so late fall damp rains
brightly flies sparrows so calls

Premium MemberNathania Nana's Bubble Stance-

Bubbles blowing in the wind 
Moving in the air
 Flowing in the water's capsule blend
Breezed translucent spears 

With air covered with water flying suspicious
 All around me bubblicious
And when I run out of the solution soap extinguished
 Mommy can we use the soap we use for the dishes

Premium MemberStoic Stance

hot and humid, energy drained
with mosquito menace to boot
why’d we worry, we feel not strained
nonchalant eye cares not a hoot

transfixed in the bliss dance within
jibes and taunts of fate matter not
the void’s our home, we dwell therein
choosing thereby, to be self-taught

one with oneness, we are at peace
following the fragrance of love
breath by breath, turning a

our fault line
is ego
so what’s next

can we shed
each belief
here and now

seems we can’t 
so dream on
in stupor

Had to be the goofiest thing I've seen all year
looked as if
you thought he was doing his wife
maybe his horse
he could be doing all the whores on 4th street
you would never guess she would never know
impressed at backlash
now in a erective stance
she was way out of the picture

he was now number one

placed in his two

Premium MemberStooped Stance

Melding with the void,
blissful, overjoyed,
we choose to descend
to help souls ascend.

In search for the light,
there’s no wrong or right;
since the truth is veiled,
by fears we’re assailed.

Ignorance the cause
why love’s put on pause,
so we have no choice
but to heed God’s voice.

Conscience is within;
listen to begin.
Complex made simple ~
just rest thoughts nimble.

Buddha and Jesus;
their teachings please us
but

Our waking state’s but deep hypnotic trance
Tamasic* sloth, knowing not who we are
By our hand thus shaping soul’s circumstance
We are he who we seek, yet look afar
