Poetry is Truth -- and truth connects time and space. If it was true for Plato, it was also true for Shakespeare, and is therefore true for the modern poet. Which, insistently, works the same in the converse. The modern poet does not need new language and form (gimmicks)...what he or she needs is to often revisit man's relationship with omnipotence.

Existence converges in trinity: desire undone, fear dissolved, hope unbounded.

It´s not about having stenght, but know how and where to apply it. March 2026.

“Peace was once as ubiquitous as breath upon the earth—until mankind, seduced by its own inquietude, began to suspect that existence itself was insufficient.”

To find your poetic voice you must
listen to your heart, soul and muse.

Some walk in the rain feeling it, seeing it, listening to it;
but, there are others that just get drenched.

A poet shouldn't worry too much about being consistent. As Walt Whitman said, "Do I contradict myself? So sue me." (I may not have that quote exactly right, but he was from New York so he could have said it that way.)

Kypris, Queen- A symbol of Wisdom, the Buddhic Ruler of Evolution and the Transmuter of the lower qualities. " And thus then Kypris, when she had moistened Earth with Water, breathed Air on it, and gave it to swift Fire to be hardened" - Empedocles, Bk, 11, 215 Fairbanks

When I play the guitar, I am listening to my mind.

I've never accepted the common notion that you must be crazy if you talk to yourself. Most of the time, I'm the only one who will listen to me.

If foolish inconsistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, it surely must follow that foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little imagination.

If foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, devious inconsistency must surely be the pernicious gremlin of foolish minds.

Success is inconsistent, fall then spring back up. It's worth the cost.

I don't give advice, nor criticise, I listen.

The more you glisten,
the more I start to sweat.
I really can’t remember
what I never should forget.

Your Divine Spirit is an open book of spontaneous reference. I have met people who seldom read the bible...yet, most every word they speak and action they take, is Biblically correct. Am I saying, no need to read the bible? Absolutely not -- if a sense of emptiness, loneliness, dissatisfied existence, read, devour, savor! With ultimate goal of becoming....

My mom could be so quiet that even God leaned in to listen.

A good friend is like a balm applied or administered on a deep cuts. A bad friend is like filth besides a pot of soup (stench). Prof Adejola Joseph

Love is the sine qua non of existence. Where there is love there is liberty, freedom and pursuit of happiness. Love.

Someone's thankful for your existence

I strongly agree with the existence of God but also strongly disagree with the mistake of religion.

"Medicine is not just science—it’s the art of listening with your hands and healing with your heart."

In an existence rife with disappointment, happiness must seem a fabled luxury, relegated to a distant past in the envelope of youth where obligation is an undiscovered theme and need exists in its pristine state, devoid of any attachment. If distance lends perspective, happiness will forever remain a legacy whose true value may only be appreciated in contrast to our misery.

We all possess an inherent amount of faith, we trust we are who we say we are and that things are, after a fashion, the way we expect them to be. An expectation that forms the baseline which allows us to interface and function within the bounds of what we, as individuals, consider the norms of rational existence. That is until circumstance erodes the illusion which forms the bulwark between what is rational and irrational. Chaos then needs little justification or provocation.

We know there is a divine realm because mathematics exists. And to those who would say mathematics is a human construction, I respond, you probably haven't done much math. Mathematics is consistently smarter than mathematicians, and its soul is deeper as well.

There is no back in Time as Einstein suggests -- Time is a part of us, in every cell and mental process recalled – Already, we are all we were, and all we will become – if anything, I seek knowledge of the eternal moment. Conscious oneness with God in His timeless infinite Universe…. The secret is, learning how to listen – “God speaks to us daily” –

There is no example of complete death or annihilation in the world. Just graceful and profound, abrupt change. Nothing goes out of existence...why should we be so different? Why not a universe of cooperative thought and feeling in a speck of sand? We know so little of death...and why not life beyond, yet assume volumes full?

Although lost to history, one may imagine that the origin of the phrase 'to face the music' is that Scottish military formations placed their musicians in the rear. So soldiers had the choice of going forward into battle, or turning back and listening to the bagpipes. This accounts for their bravery.
