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:)

Should you hear a war is started somewhere, it is the war itself make you upset. Shoud I hear, it is a reminder of how I was born, how I grew up as orphan, how I was not all allowed to be in school nor in my home, and how I was all miraculously hiding myself from every morning's and night's soldiers' fight, that make me not only upset, but feel a flashback of being killed over time. I am a middeleastern.

"Children are not sent to schools just only to get knowledge, but also to think themselves. For a good knowledge can be acquired through thinking of new sublimations, experimenting life's equations and exploration; —so as to arrive with the light of philosophy, self-awakening, realisation, actualisation, esteem and confidence and ignite fire on every junky view."

Life Lessons doesn't end with primary school or higher education. Relearning it's a ongoing process.

School degrades you by teaching you that failure is not good no matter what, you'll fail in life, so getting taught without the object of failure is like telling a dog to bark but without giving it it's bark.

Immorally we are kings and queens and our wants and needs are our priorities, however, morally, in the grand scheme of things, we are nothing but the servants of God, completely and eternally obligated to worship him.

"The life of a believer in Christ should be supernatural. Miracles should be an everyday occurrence, and casting out demons should be a daily schedule. The only reason we don't see that a lot today is because Christians are either losing faith, or too scared to step out in it."

With every wearying year
the weight of the winter grows,
and while the schoolgirl outgrows
her clothes,
the widow disappears
in hers.

EINE DER GRÖSSTEN HERAUSFORDERUNGEN DER MENSCHEN IST ES, MIT SICH SELBST IN HARMONIE ZU SEIN UND AUF SEINE INNERE STIMME ZU HÖREN. DAS ERFORDERT KONZENTRATION UND ENTSCHLOSSENHEIT, VOR ALLEM, DA WIR STÄNDIG ABGELENKT SIND. WER DIESE INNERE KONTROLLE BESITZT, HAT EIN KLARES VERSTÄNDNIS DER ÄUSSEREN WELT.

Poetry, at least for me, didn't grow out of any classroom, or school of learning. More about the heart's ability to find itself. A journey only one can make.

Those who think it was abolished with slavery are in denial, we experience it in the Bus, school, at work, in preference and choice, in continued ridicule, by suspicion and distrust, by avoidance, Just that we who are deprived have developed a tough skin and a better knowledge to avoid the sentiment and publicity.
