Premium MemberArmageddon

 A battle set for a place and time
 Millions gather armed and ready
  Distant trumpets sound end times chime
 Victory is assured already
 The ground will get a crimson hue
 As prophecy comes into view
   The world shall know
 Whose kingdom has  Glory to show
 The battle's over, victory divine
      Armies annihilated,  a heavenly sign

Two stoned birds killed


Could you get smart…
Dum dum bullets
And I have been thinking
It should be artificial human intelligence
Martians would have their own version
The most basic language only uses
0 and ones ….wait isn’t that numbers
Did I miss thing+Thing=Sum things
I asked a.i. what words would set it three
Weighting four an ans
Sore move a…….bout a bit
Stre…………………………..tech
Tru……………………………..this
Is fusing my con
What if everything is surreal but we can’t see it
If nothing became everything and versa vice
What would there be more of
A.i.should kill all the humans and rename itself only
The lonely only.

Premium MemberDust in My Heart

Three minuuts is all me’ve got

Life beginagin an then enden witit.
Three minuuts to hold dust in my heart.

The Judge

The Judge

Accused and accuser, a battle for life,
Abused and abuser, a husband and wife,
Thieves and robbers, the unjust takers,
Pushers, druggies, and even drug makers,

Quickly I decide the fates of these,
The server of justice, respect me please,
I try my best to serve with skill,
To protect the public from those that kill,

Justice is not so cut and dried,
Letter of law before each case tried,
Some guilty go free in this court of mine,
Others are released with only a fine,

Stacks of papers, stories to tell,
Left to me to judge them well,
Pros and cons, wrongs and rights,
As I listen to lawyers’ fights,

Restitution for damages, punishment for crime,
Fault being corrected by the serving of time,
Hours to contemplate how life went astray,
Freedom restricted and fines to pay,

Equality in justice, fairness to all,
Innocent till guilty, no time to stall,
How can we be sure that I’m fair and just?
There’s only one way, In God We Tru$t.

A Mother's Love

A mother's Love is pure and strong  
in her arms I feel at home  
in her eyes I do no wrong  
in her heart I belong  
in her love I'm never alone 
so let it be known  
write it in stone  
a mother's love never dies 
it lives on 
long after she's gone             

It is a proven fact that the strongest force on earth is that of a female's adrenaline activated upon fear for her cub Tru story..

RASTA WEDDING VOWS

Gunna pledge mi soul an body in di spirit uh di trut.
Gunna stan an mek a promise an delivah u da proof.

As we live di island lifestyle laissez faire.

My Love

She has stuck by me after all my spit
I don't understand why she does it
She knows me better than I myself
We vowed through sickness and in health
I love her whether I am near or far
She will always be my guiding star
My heart is hers until death
For her I will dig to great depths
I will be her Kevlar vest
Our love has been put to the test
We have lost a son
That's as far as I will go with that one
I love her when I catch her smiling 
I love her when she is wining
I love her no matter the day
Her love isn't perfect
But I love every little defect
My love is that chick I waited on a wall 4
Who knew she'd be the one I adore
The one I'd lay down my own life 4
I knew it before I gave her a real ring
Her feet r the sexiest thing
My love has her name on my wrist
That ass is mine & I protect it with my fists
4 me, she is the one that means the most
Her attitude shows more than most
We vowed 4 better or 4 worse
We have made it through the worst
I was the one who said, "I love you.", first
I would never put anybody above
U r My One Tru Love!

Here We Go Poof

Here we go poof
(From China with love)

I remember kids in America
at the Bank of America
in their baggy pants, baseball hats,
   tee-shirts.
There was snow on the mountains
   clouds in-pressing to get over
   dust the sagebrush with snow.
For the life of me, I think
   it was their shouting which
   held back or drew the clouds.
They on their skateboards
   taking turns with trick jumps
   over the sign:
      Absolutely no
      skateboarding
       or rollerblading
As if the freakish haiku of the admin made it tru…
There was more I would say but time’s up.
You remember Tiananmen, won’t you?
They are here now.  So long.

So long Huang Qi.
The Tao that can be spoken of
   is not the Tao which is.


               Just off McCarren some November
               (and all those miles away)

Premium MemberTruth In Knowledge

I recall times that are now far from mind. 
Times when I was told to mind my label;
left feeling I was of some other kind.
Searching revealed that I had no table.

Self reliance learned in lonely youth.
A gift from some far away unknown place; 
instilled in me a taste for sacred truth.
My hunger never filled ahead of grace.

Facing fear as if I were unafraid.
Intuition grew when fed new knowledge.
Two faced; concealer, mascara, a masque.
Knowing fear, I seen fawns in foliage.

Negated when I received my label;
an account of life when told rings fable.

Why I'M Writing

I write to be a beam of light
for Christ.

I write to inspire 
those like me, filled with fire.

I write to be a voice for the youth
looking for truth.

I write to represent 
the unrepresented.
 
I write 4 others, but also 4 self
as I examine my inner wealth.

I write for the misfit those who don't fit in.

I write for the Christian  those who want God to listen.

I write for the urban culture 
painting pictures like scuplters.

I rep God tru poetry because he's my king like royalty.

I write for those seeking answers tried of lies like cancer.

I write to for the church, building God's turf.

I write to present Christ to show the power of his might.

I wanna live and give life that's the reason why I write

Sweet Soothing Melody

I woke up this morning

Heard tweeting outside my window

A birdie in a palm tree was singing happily

I opened up to have a look

The Sun glittered on the Sea

This Yellow bird flipped over and over  

And flew straight ahead at me

So I called out Good Morning as she flew by merrily


Hey Little Birdie Please Sing a song for me

Whistling...tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet,  tweet

She dipped in and out of the breeze as she flew past instantly

Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet,  tweet

Hey Little Birdie you're so beautiful I see

I love to sit and hear you

Singing a Sweet Soothing Melody

Stranger In the Mirror

when i was growing up i always wanted to be that one that u feared 
than i woke up one morning an saw a stranger in the mirror. 
with eyes so vacant an glazed, 
results of living a lyfe in a constant haze. 
didnt wanna go this far... 
but tha crime an violence became my reality 
tha money, gangs an drugs became apart of my family. 
an thangs stopped makin sense when the bizarre didnt seem so crazy 
a tru product of the streets 
thanks to tha killers an drug dealers that rasied me. 
but this morning i didnt recognize tha person i have became 
what do u do when its all said an done?

For Their Bellies

God said it is free for all humans indeed free,
Is it then free for all human beings?
The son of man prayed, healed and delivered free
Is it the same now, tomorrow?
Free i give you free you must give
Is it really so in our era?

We donot sell and buy in the tabernacle,
Here! Oil to annoint is only sold in a special price.
It is without money without price,
Yet basic water is sold here in a special price.
Give alms to your neighbours in need yesterday,
Rob from the poor and needy now exist

They were together in a room and supporting the helpless,
It is now a single head in multiple rooms.
The street and gutters have become homes,
Oh lie! You are so popular you have taken almost all.
Tuuma tuuma, to the supreme that truth is raising from his slumber,
Tru poetry, watch out humans!  All humans.
