Robot World

Robot World
 We will be invaded by our own invention.
 A.I. will be more powerful than man.
 Men have always been seeking knowledge.
 Always putting us all at risk.
 Trying to replace God with something higher.
 Robots have helped mankind lose jobs in the fire.
 I wanted to write about something different.
 Are you ready for a bar code on your arm or forehead?
 Machines will be in charge of our lives.
 Surrender or die.
 Mankind is always destroying our values.
 Our minds are lost 24/7 in our cell phones.
 No more social lives.
 Program the human race to put us in line.
 No more freedom of speech.
 On this road no one will be free.
 Empowered robots directing traffic for all mankind.
 A great life we once knew all left behind.
 Enter a new nightmare.
 Escape a higher power if you dare.
 The fall of man.
 A.I. takes over with authority and our land.
 The future is already here.
 Get ready to serve the machine in fear.
 Wewill all be completely controlled by cameras.
 No place to hide from the red eye and lenses.
 Our leaders have no clue how to run this country.
 After the tipping point, no one will be free.

Empire of Illusions

Empire of Illusions

Once, I had an empire, 
but I was forced to set it on fire.
 One day, I realized it was all a hoax, 
crafted by fake crooks and plastic looks.

Something in the static
 masked the dead and sick, 
until a revelation 
pushed me towards lamentation.

The clothes I put on are woven with threads of cries and yearn, 
each thread has a story to be told, 
hidden in layers of irony and manifold.

I had a dream where I could scream
 with authority, under no hidden scheme,
 where I'd be the one, my kingdom would come, 
tossing coins to decide the lessons to learn.....

-Harsh Bernard Shaw

E

Everybody doesn't have access to E
She is stunning, she is beautiful, she is free
She walks with no apology, talks with authority, and eyes could pierce your soul
She is exploring her creativity, showing her maturity, and embracing her individuality
She stands more proudly, she is sitting in her feminity, and she is providing herself stability
She shows herself more mercy, she has forgiven herself more gracefully
She is growing spiritual, glowing physically, and mentally she is healing
She is me, I am her, We are E

Part-time Fool

People lie to me about big things,
people lie to me about small things.
They lie about what's dear to me,
they lie about what doesn't bother me.
They speak highly of crooked beings,
they downplay important things.
I'm told half and no truths at all.
And like colors on a spectrum,
bright is passed as dull and off.
Big is watered down as relative,
where small has no relation.
They claim with authority,
yet they're responsible for a minority.
They carry my capacity in bits,
whilst telling how I'm a nitwit.
Not knowing,
I might be a fool, but I'm only a fool sometimes.

Dare to dream
A mind to needs to understand
Convene words
Heart expels
Storms torrent the soul
Emotions cry out
A loud voice says commit suicide
Die and be forgotten
Surrounded by defeat with no victory
Story in
Approaching conclude with no soothe
Understanding and purpose collide
It’s like there’s a small boat unable to hold steady
The mind feeling like waves shifting here and there
Alone in the struggles
A sunset that quickly turns dark
No one knows what I feel
Reality is for real
A told story, but who is listening?
Anchored in one’s own theory
Mystery unknown
Tomorrow only a virtue
Words hold true
Where do I stand?
The day, moment and hour
Darkened walls with authority
The time getting shorter
Midnight could very well be the second
Death calls
I have only one breath
The hour
Time out
I die.

Premium MemberLOL

I faced this man with whom I had an affinity
This is what I found him express with authority.

You’re handsome, and absolutely adorable
Face emits intelligent sparks of smile stable.

You’re rational, but at times tangentially crank
Your body has an ego-centric language frank.

Your charisma and eclectic elan espouse cheers
The eyes encase rosy dreams, and at times tears.

You’re caring and glow with gregarious grace
If you’re to run to get her, you’ll win the race. 

Enormously elated, I looked close, and lol to see
In the mirror this known man standing before me.

Premium MemberHave Your Say

To see the world in black and white
And to know right and wrong
To never wonder about what might
Or what is to take so long

To fly the way the wind blows
And always go the right way
To seek what the world knows
And transfers on this day

To strive to accomplish the lone task
With authority, simply and surely
Only see one stone ahead
But study that stone purely

To see black and to see white
And to know which shows the way
 Even if you don’t think your candle is bright
At least you’ve had your say

Maternity First Or Fraternity

Ward's fat wife in a maternity,
He in their TABCAN Fraternity...

And Ward can't see the insanity:
Wife who had bled quite a quantity,
There with Ruth only a brutality;
A blinding by TABCAN's sanctity...

TABCAN that grants with authority
The hateful wishes of minority,
Its abhorred area of specialty
Speedy making of one casualty...

Not to okay enemy's demise
Even at this hour Compromise...

For a good ten years seeking a child
But now to some life wants to be wild
And while hoping for his child's safe birth
Home returning with a killer's mirth.

Premium MemberJesus Answered Them - John 10: 31-32

Jesus faced many attacks on earth
so often the Jewish leaders did attack
they made Him their number-one target
seeking to draw Him in that He's crack

Here the Jews were really angry
as they chose to attack with rocks
this is the son of God they hated
but they wanted Jesus in the dock

Jesus now spoke with authority
declared He had shown to them
many good works from God His father
what could they say? to God's gem

The Lord then asked the question
'which good works do you try to stone me?'
here God turned them in a spin
for they yet would pin Him to a tree

These Jews wouldn't bow to Jesus
indeed they wanted Him dead
on a cross, He paid for their sin
to bring salvation to believe in

(John10: 31-32
The Jews picked up rocks to stone Jesus. Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good works from my Father. For which of these are you trying to stone me?")

Premium MemberDefiant To the End

I've been told by some that I am "defiant to the end."
and I guess that's true to some extent.
It's not that I have a problem with authority necessarily,
I just don't tolerate any authority that doesn't respect me or my community,
whether it's a boss or any leader of any country.
I am defiant to the end when defending even the most basic civil liberty.

Premium MemberThe Gathering

They gather at my desk where the treats are kept
every morning, every noon, every evening
They know it is their treat time
Little Genghis begs with authority
impatient he will jump and lean on my leg
Kublia just sits there and stares
with big sad eyes he stares
Not moving a muscle eyes transfixed on me
waiting for his treat
Sassy is confused, new to the game she follows the crowd
Sniffing to see what's in the air
Not sure what's going on but then
I open the treat jug lid
and Kublia starts dancing up and down
first his front paws down to his hind legs
I swear he's grinning now
Ghengis lets out a happy howl
he licks his lips barking with glee
runs around the chair I sit.
Sassy looks but does not know
First treat goes to Genghis who flees under
the desk to eat his treasure
Second treat to Kublia who snaps it tight
and heads for his bed with his treat delight
Sassy is third and gingerly accepts hers
softly holding it in her mouth she lays down
wagging her tail, so this is what all the fuss is about.

Premium MemberKing Rickery Roo Rowdy Rollens Rugbuggy Royce

Peeking out from behind the bed was a wide banded raccoon king.
I thought he was a regular raccoon, for I did not know of such a thing.
He bared his broken yellow teeth and gave me a bit of a fright.
You see I was in my pajamas, ready to turn in for the night.

How am I getting him out of here? I asked a 911 operator on the phone.
She thought it was hilarious and told me to write it up in a poem.
But he is a wild animal, I told her. And he is scary and could be mean.
He rolled his eyes to the ceiling, and I saw the left one was green.

He’s got a green eye! I said to the operator; there was fear in my voice.
My name is King Rickery Roo Rowdy Rollens Rugubuggy Royce.
He said this with authority, and I felt he might be rather tame.
He sat down and challenged me to a wild monopoly game.

We became good friends, King Rickery Roo and I.
He comes every once in a while when the tides are way high.
He loves my bathroom and my yellow rubber ducky too.
I do not ask, but I would guess he also uses my loo.

Premium MemberJesus

The two major forms of Judaism in Jesus' day were Pharisees and Sadducees.
All of heaven and The Lord knew priorly that many of them would not believe.
Pharisees believed in angels, like those appearing to shepherds one dark eve.   

Both sects had problems especially along the lines of 'JOY' and 'LOVE'.
They had no experience with The Holy Spirit descending like a dove.
Mortals could live a HOLY LIFE on earth without any HOPE from above?

Christ arrived with GRACE and an invitation for any who would, to have FAITH.
Jesus spoke with authority, not with arguments, discussions, or a Great debate.
Essentially, Jesus said to thief on the cross, come with me now; it's not too late.

You Get What You Give

The energy you put out
Is what you get in return
Although this is a lesson
Some will never learn

There are those who
Murder, steal  and lie
Their lives are chaotic
And they’re left wondering why.

Some are getting in trouble
Always looking and trying
Then defying authority, 
getting shot and dying

Loved ones left behind
Heartbroken and crying
Their stories being twisted
By the media’s lying

When all it would take
Is to be reasonable and collective
Rather than being  resistant
Angry, and selective

When faced with authority
Just be calm and compliant
Rather than being mad,
Aggressive and defiant

When you are living a life
Full of love and hope
It makes life better
much easier to cope

With what life throws at you
No matter what it may be
With each challenge in life
the bigger picture you'll see

Do your actions support
The life that you truly want to live?
Are you emitting the energy
That you really want to give?

The energy you bring in
Is the energy you put out
Getting what you give
Its what life is all about

Premium MemberBe Children of Your Heavenly Father - Matthew 5: 44-45

Being filled by the spirit of God
brings a love for those who oppose
as Christ had compassion for such
perfect love Jesus explicitly shows

To communicate with God on high
the way is opened by the avenue of prayer
this indeed is the Christians vital breath
on our knees before our Lord to share

This shows you're a child of God
one so loved by your heavenly father
bidding you to come and be saved
under His care together you will gather

According to the Lord's providential grace
causing His sun and rain being His creation
to fall on all peoples of the earth
real beauty is seen for every occasion

In this scripture, Jesus spoke with authority
when conveying the sermon on the mount
To be children of your heavenly Father
believing in Jesus having no doubt

("But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.) Matthew 5: 44-45
