Poetry
Time for Herstory
On loose-leaf pages
the stages were measured
changes charted as seasons
reasons parted for believing
so we are leaving,
the current order
has failed us.
The trust on which
We rely
originated before
the wicked
lie.
Fire
Flies
as we
Die.

A New Nation
Under lunar cycles of righteousness
I write my book.
With the spell of timelessness casted
I take my look -
Around
the world change is coming
darkness and despair are ending
Armageddon
Who will survive?
Vive means to live
How much will you give?
Up to Infinity
Our destiny is not "prosperity"
Commercial activity is killing the Earth.
Erasing our memory.
"Progress" is ending we
In my heart I know strength
and through weakness I cultivate qi
I get to know me so as not to be
herded like a sheep.
An army of do-gooders
is replacing the army of freeloaders
as creators are given stronger bodies over time.
Consumers get filtered through evolution
because they provide no solution
show no respect to the Ocean
Earth
Fire
Water
or Heaven.
I follow curved lines that know no boundaries.
As Heaven boundaries imagination
Brothers and Sisters inspire to create their destination.
So reality has no limits
Infinite Blessings is not a gimmick
Rainbows appear to heal the strife
and as the soil is washed into the sea
our minds degenerate into insanity.
So generate compassion by equally dividing the ration
given to the global village
because the Earth
is our only carriage.
Divorced in our marriage we perish -
as war drums beat down the pulse of hope.
But, in the hearts of the believers lies freedom -
and on the path to simplicity
WE BECOME RECIEVERS
empty vessels to cipher out pain
thus to sustain
the word of Truth.
We Tha Youth Must Rise In Order
For The Rest To Survive.
Recognize the systems that hold us
were created by us -
So the actions that liberate
must be based on Trust.
Humyn potential is the mushroom cloud
that hovers in the atmosphere
and humyn nature will be rooted in despair
until we confront the past -
ask loudly:
WHY DOES THE VIOLENCE LAST?!
Remove the mask
and let the music take you
Rearrange and remake you
walk the roads of Creation
and we together will be born -
A New Nation.
