TruthContinue reading “‘Truth’”
liars seek truth‒
falsifying a life
without any light
manipulation...their due
cutting it on cue
‒without noticing
the coming dues
their belief‒
trying to convince you
all they do
true, true, true
backing them‒
there are few
their spots change
sending you to the loo
oh! what to do?
‒without cursing them, too
truth is truth
existing
no half truths
‒it's either all true
or just makings
of a waterloo
When politics blinds your truth!

DisillusionmentContinue reading “‘Disillusionment’”
she stood there shaking
what have I done‒
causing this imagined awakening
‒have I forsaken
forgive me, Lord†
ease this hating
in her silence
her heart opened
‒a simple token
what truly lived
in this here maiden
she watched them all
as the stones began to fall
‒to her knees
no longer...she felt tall
over and over
coming at her skin‒
little hard balls
then a sudden stall
stopped...silence
a mere moment
she recalled
the dust settled
her tightly closed eyes opened
upon her dress‒
tiny red splattered drops dribbled
her pain...tiny tickles
what...a blink before‒
it seemed a fable
her fear lifted‒
was this a gift
her sins shifting
to ultimate's forgiveness
‒this she did not know
but the sudden stop
‒she felt her heart unfold
cast your stone‒
if clean...your bones
she heard the voice
then the made choice
as all around
stone after stone
hit...not her
but the ground
silence remained
she still knelt‒
in blood stains
as shifting of feet
the sudden in retreat
silence...not daring
to lift her head
then a shadow overcame the red
a hand reached out
get up child
a mere whisper without shout
strength from Him† came
as her legs rose
‒her eyes did the same
His† light dried her tears
all became so clear‒
her heart felt clean
in His† eyes...she seen‒
truth's unending scene
her life redeemed
it wasn't a dream
‒pure and serene
forever...trust in Him†
she proclaimed
for the Lord†...by her side
remained
You’ve got to ask God and stop complaining!

Places ShackledContinue reading “‘Places Shackled’”
He† asked not to forsaken Him†
yet gives a choice‒
free-will to accept within
analogies, theological preachings
leads only to leeching
the wrong, deceitful teaching
‒a constant arguing of bitching
leaves hungry souls
waiting, anticipating
in places allowing shackling
He's† proven enough
for everyone's love
He† doesn't have to do rough
‒that's the enemy's stuff
but He'll† get tough
when love's smothered in crud
to push buttons
lead people to suffering
‒He's† testing
seeing who's believing
wondering how long
for hearts in changing‒
faith begins ringing
amazing to watch‒
tickings of the cock
deceptions...coming in hot
‒evil's little bot
it'll be easy to come in‒
without a knock
as you wage wars
on a dot
careful now‒
He† understands wow
hears every prayer in loud
evil things...He† does allow
waiting for the choice
a hungry heart's voice
in free-will...the bow
‒without asking how!
Is race going to continue to rule your life?

Hands to HoldContinue reading “‘Hands to Hold’”
you come at me
you're not discrete
bold...unsure
maybe there's a gun in my hand
maybe I've some contraband
or maybe I just like hands in pocket
or wearing my earphones in my car
so I can answer this here phone
for this car absent of bluetooth–
protecting me and you
or maybe you're angry–
having a bad day
I pass your way
through your veins runs hate
so I become your play
I'm just like you‒
generation after generation
passed through
without obligations
to changing the view
–it all seems like voodoo
we both–
not really having a clue
‒taking it upon ourselves
get off that dusty shelf
change the view
so our kids
won't suffer too
maybe I do have a gun
–anger raging in stun
do you see inside of me
my hard history
maybe my hand shakes
though you can't see
–you're so angry
not seeing what's at stake
maybe I did some drugs–
stopping the pain
keeping from going insane
but soothing I didn't gain
all looks like a game
emotions adding to more pain
then you come along
thinking I'm a thug
you want to cut me down‒
stump me like a bug
without knowing the deal at home
why I'm here–
a gun...all alone
maybe don't yell
talk...love–
let it swell
instead of jail–
lead my soul to help
without making me
hate myself
I, too, want peace
between you and me
maybe instead of arrogance‒
show understanding
compassion
I don't want a free ride
just a reason...inside
not to cry
I am tough
I've got muscles, tats
my life has been rough
–crazy and all that
it doesn't mean
I'm just stuff
to pluck
a handshake
a hug
–that just might be
enough
I'm a human being
I don't mean to sting
just a little bitter
please, your anger–
could you reconsider
look at me for me
God's† child
making my way...like you
through the miles
–the past is gone
this is now
together–
we can make it all
worth while
if we just remain calm–
approach each other
in mild
without death coming in foul
We’re all various shades of brown!

Colorless BirdsContinue reading “‘Colorless Birds’”
a failed adhesion
‒mixed hypercritical damnation
of all the hysteria‒
the misunderstood mystery
hundreds of years
still shed tears
still darkened fears
what was fought
so hard for
it doesn't seem
we came too far
even living
under the same stars
color‒
keeps bringing us back
‒justice lacked
white...black
heresy in a broken-down shack
tackle the government
‒greed's endowment
keeping
that stupid war's enlightenment
taking it's very commitment
back to days of judgment
where are the colorless birds
‒haven't you heard
that war ended
in a blood-soaked swirl
leaving this mixed-race girl
in a confused swirl
‒still an uneven world
lost in racial twirls
we're still paying tokens
‒what was broken
thought to be fixed
‒all should be mixed
still backwards
the clock tics
years and years
suffered pain
what did we gain
‒it's just insane
still playing
this black-white game
didn't king die
for a simple dream
to live in a time
where there is no color
just people
where each other
given no time to smother
no matter skin color
you're still my sister, my brother
honoring a man's life
doesn't give war the right
to bury the dream
‒words he openly screamed
leave hatred...difference behind
to each other
be kind
it's just time
stop banking on race
look into each other's face
see beauty's lace
of God's† amazing grace
You MUST take action instead of trolling!

A BeaconContinue reading “‘A Beacon’”
do you hear it–
ring, ring, ring
liberty does sing
through the tiniest notion
–every vocation
each unique imagination
one nation
stands for liberation
she's not a simulation
she's reality's verification–
there's ramifications
if tied by dictation
do you hear it–
ring, ring, ring
liberty does sing
no unification of nations
can match her situation
no militant formulation
can undermined her creation
she has limitations
push her motivation–
her wrath's determination
unveils against aggression
do you hear it–
ring, ring, ring
liberty does sing
all look upon her manifestation
for freedom's not suppression
it's an awakening sensation
unmatched by any's validation
she is liberation
the beacon of hope rendition
to all oppression
she is the united states of america–
under God†
she is one nation
to the world's population
she is their mandation–
being free is
God's† given human condition
not under bureaucracy regulation
not under controlled restriction
but through
the self's desire for liberation
do you hear it–
ring, ring, ring
liberty does sing
God wants us happy. Evil wants us sad! You do the math!

Laughing SmileContinue reading “‘Laughing Smile’”
it took her a while
breaking open that smile–
gaining the strongest need
laugh...laugh like a child
she didn't need to ask how–
she lifted her heart to God†
walked long, long miles
for that laughing smile
she sealed it...inside
bringing it out
when gone was her doubt
no, she didn't have to shout
she learned to keep her head
in the clouds
forgetting
what frowns were about
–just laugh...yes she did
out loud
she had it down-pat
that girly laugh
–adding a bit of sass
you do the math–
she intended for it to last
not caring
where she was at
at anyone
came that laughing sass–
smiling so big
walking
shaking her ass
she knew that surety
came straight
from the Lord†
she didn't have to ask
what for
she just knew
she was worthy
then this thunder came
bringing her to lame
her truthfulness
remaining the same
fighting off
anger's vengeful flame
as her world
tipped its bowl
a once.again fold–
that place
she promised herself
she wouldn't go
she didn't choose the fold
it just slide
in to corrode
sinking its stronghold–
not letting go
burying
in an inside rage
she...again
locked herself in a cage
patiently she began to wait
living a bit sedate
wondering...why so late
that smile on her face
then there it was...gleaming
like in a summer's dream
waiting there
to be redeemed
she didn't think twice
remembering how it felt
so real, so right
she didn't really fight
she just walked
the way of the light
its uncertainty remains–
her holding onto it
a bit of a strain
struggling through the rain
that comes with pain
it did take her a while
breaking open that smile–
regaining that need
to laugh
laugh like a child
the first time
the second time
she didn't need to ask how
so she did again–
lift her heart to God†
taking on long, long miles
–for it's always worth the wait
for that laughing smile
Depression: The Feeling of Your Own Death!

Pillars of DeathContinue reading “‘Pillars of Death’”
I'm an apparent suicide
who took
everything buried inside
‒sprayed it out
like pesticide
they call it a homicide
raging words
was all it took
for love to dry
‒leaving only tears
to cry
slowly I died
asking every kind of why
why only anger's words
was enough
to cast me aside
why my truth
was reason
my life
‒its very existence
to hide
my being
no longer resides
in hearts
I believed
could override
evil's prancing stride
they all cast me aside
for thoughts...words
I could no longer
hold inside
instead of holding me
as these eyes cried
they buried me
‒an unmarked grave
deep outside
with bugs and flies
Take It To God and Let the Child In You Breathe!

I'm But a ChildContinue reading “‘I’m But a Child’”
would you believe in Him†
if you had riches of gold
would you honor Him†
if you weren't in the cold
in your darkest days
do you hold faith
when no money's in hand
when deceived by man
do you cry out to Him†
in a simple hymn
when possessions
flood your gates
when you have so much to take
do you stop a moment
say wait
let me give some away
do you welcome
the sinful in
treat them
like a friend
or do you shun them
thinking
you're better than them
do you hide
what's deep inside
swallowed by ego and pride
not wanting the outside
see you cry
or do you rise high
trusting in God†
that He†
won't turn with a sigh
but see your I
never asking you why
never you, He'll† deny
are you strong enough
to admit
I'm but a child
I've failed along the miles
but God's† with me
all the while
it takes strength
to admit defeat
falling to His† feet
forgiveness...plead
unconditional love
free will
His† love is sealed
His† love is real
He† forgives you
it's all up to you
with nothing
to others
to prove
To Deny Others Is To Deny God!
Salvation's NeedContinue reading “‘Salvation’s Need’”
test after test
I have failed
my 360
to the cross...nailed
You† brought people to me
in their time of weak
‒salvation
I failed to help them seek
instead, I buried them deep
words from my mouth
did seep
actions
I didn't allow to creep
in self
I curled up in weep
my time has come and sailed
out of all of it
I tend to bail
turning my back
not wanting to see
how another's picture
on them...creeps
I just give up and flee
whatever awakens
this ignorance of me
strip it
take it from me
strengthen me
help me to see
keep me from feeling sorry
lost in self pity
Lord†, this part of me
that lived unselfishly
I lost
please return it to me
without this lumpy throat
from way down deep
without fears and anxiety
help me open my mouth
speak
in words of calm
humility, peace
without selfish
insecurities
