Some lights never die—they shimmer softly in the dusk of memory.

You shimmer still within my dusk, a faded gleam in memory’s husk.

Do not be angry with the dormant friends you have on Facebook and on social media who do not LIKE or comment on your statuses and pictures, and do not congratulate you on your birthday. See them just as the regular passengers you meet every morning on the train and bus on your way to work, and with whom you do not exchange greetings ? the only thing you share being just passengers on board the same train and bus. ~Nkwachukwu Ogbuagu

God teaches us all we need to move ourselves through this time and into our eternity.
Loving us, he guides us with all of his commandments.
Lifting prayers today and always.

What is trance? Is it just zombie like? Or can illness, hyper activity be a form of trance? Transfixed, habitual, immovable -- Are we not all, in a deeper sense, in varying degrees, a trance of self?

Dating is so important to a long lasting relationship. Get to know the other person really well, it's ok to date for a lengthy period. Consummating a relationship outside of marriage is still a covenant made, in God's eyes. Oxytocin is the bonding drug our bodies create. You are fighting physical and emotional connection when you don't respect the process. There is a lot of therapy gone through because God's program for relationships [or "ships" as the kids say] and marriages are not followed.

Although perfection doesn’t exist, some people still have that mindset. And with that mindset, comes immense pressure and stress. Perfection doesn’t exist. It is only a self destruction mindset.

Confidence is a subtle command. It takes prisoners and captivates them with modesty.

Excellence is no accolade to be obtained in and of itself but rather the hallmark and herald of those committed to its ideal.

No institution can exist that purportedly upholds the rule of law by breaking it. No institution that has become the prime offender of citizens rights can claim to protect them. Experience has shown that governments are not immune to corruption and therefore are bound by necessity, when required, to reformation. Prudence dictates corruption abrogates the ability for self correction and so remedy must be accomplished through external means.

Hope is a vain indulgence, it clouds judgement and champions inaction. Belief wedded to action needs only resolve and commitment.

If we rebel then let it be against our own nature for there is no more imminent an enemy nor worse an oppressor.

Regarding change, we are heavily invested in the status quo and sentiment is capital easily spent in the absence of commitment.

Man is mortal but always believes in immortality.

"Come look amid the treacheries glorious of history and the riddles of time existence; deception hammers out its dominion silent. Yes, cloaked in words eloquent, veiled in reason hypnotic, waiting to be unmasked never." - Daniel Henry Rodgers

There's a bond created in the forge of eternity, tempered by Gods' skillful hammer and design. Formed and cooled by wisdom and acceptance, its strength, ever present to combine.

Eyes of the brightest blue,
A smile that could strike a wave
A laugh that could haunt your dreams,
And a smile like Summer rain
Tender and warm her arms may be,
With the strength to hold you tight
But even the strongest of people,
Need to be held at night

Poetry expresses feelings that are common in humanity, allowing us to unite in understanding, empathy, and solidarity. Good poetry also challenges us to be our best selves; a resurrection of the spirit, a refinement of the soul.

When I start to write, I try to make of myself a blank slate...left with just the impulse that got me there, at the lone scrimmage. I sit quietly...waiting.... Until an interesting thought or phrase, can be even one word eagerly presenting itself. Then I begin the poem, letting the impulse lead beyond. To me, poetry, along with everything else a writer uses for definition and motivation, above all else is viewed as sacred -- alive and independent literary expression in a manic, schizoid way:)

A hidden treasure under the cottoned-garment can only be mined when a knot-rope is tightened by the prayer's-lead before the congregation — and the king will enjoy his moment in the fleshy-throne of his kingdom.

Love is the beacon of peace. Woe is the state where love is lacking! I dream of dallying my life with a beautiful lady whose name is housed in the abode of love, empathy and compassion.
