‼️WITHOUT A CARE‼️

‼️𝙒𝙄𝙏𝙃𝙊𝙐𝙏 𝘼 𝘾𝘼𝙍𝙀‼️

When you wished
Upon a star
The distance was
So very far

Yet you wished
And did have hope
Now you find
It’s hard to cope

No thought displayed
Within your mind
Ever promised
You would find

The element
Of bitter truth
Strangled dreams
Destroying youth

Modern life
Democracy?
All healthcare
And all faculty

Transportation
Destination
Before there was
No hesitation

Where to go
What to do
Always elsewhere
We went too

Now alone
Isolated
Awaiting words
Regulated

No more trips
No more hugging
This type of life
It is dying

When mighty dollars
Glorified
Ego’s greed
Satisfied

When popularity
Drove to fame
More were losing
Their own name

Too many times
It was repeated
Political parties
All defeated

Taking turns
To explain
What we need
To remain

Too much we knew
And did ignore
What was important
Was not more

We ventured on
Cattle herd
Dictated too
Every word

Oh we explored
And kept going
Yet deep within
We were knowing

It’s just not right
Nor is it fair
To carry on
Without a care

All the weapons
Ammunition
When all we needed
Intuition

It’s really nice
To live in splendour
But it won’t help
If you surrender

All the text
You ever read
Does it help
When you are dead?

‼️GOOD GRIEF‼️

‼️𝙂𝙊𝙊𝘿 𝙂𝙍𝙄𝙀𝙁‼️

A multitude of feelings will invade

And make us think of all we’ve paid

Across the earth tears will roam

Opening doors within heart’s home

Locked inside the heart so deep

Are the secrets we all keep

We run away from dire truth

Forget the songs from our youth

In times of sorrow and of rain

Tears allow release of pain

What is allowed to exist

Concealing thoughts might resist

To feel emotion in the raw

Introduces soul to all

What is repressed

Sometimes won’t rest

When you are ready

And more steady

There will be moments

Allow condolence

Day after day wethers on

Every morning with the sun

What we allow is the keeper

What we ignore just cuts deeper

We rise and fall many times

Sing sad songs with the rhymes

As we wail and sing aloud

Good grief to hearts is allowed

With every echo from the past

No need to run, they will not last

Upon your knees you will find

A soothing cry will help your mind

‼️GOD’S NOT DONE‼️

‼️𝙂𝙊𝘿’𝙎 𝙉𝙊𝙏 𝘿𝙊𝙉𝙀‼️

Fairy wishes
Butterfly kisses
Every dream
Prayers serene

All the angst
And painful yanks
Tears swallowed
Feeling hollowed

Of no use
Poor excuse
Other truths
People sleuths

Damaging
Managing
Mind power
Every hour

When at mercy
We can see
Damned to know
Let it go

Weak and fragile
Journey’s mile
Cannot move
Hard to prove

Immobilized
Petrified
A desperate grope
To find hope

Every reason
To believe in
Challenged mind
Needs most kind

Soothing hands
Peaceful lands
Weeping eyes
See blue skies

The soul unhinged
Devil cringed
A loving stroke
God has spoke

The sun is warm
And calms the storm
In moon at night
We see sun’s light

The dark residing
The sun ain’t hiding
For in the day
No moon will stay

So let us sigh
See fairies fly
Caressing hand
And understand

Tranquility
There will be
God’s not done
Nor is the sun

‼️THE DEMAND FOR DIGNITY‼️

‼️THE DEMAND FOR DIGNITY‼️

   There are 5 basic senses right? Touch, sight, hearing, smell and taste.

They all work in helping the brain understand how to perceive the world around us.

We could go into detail about the many other senses that exist, but that is not my purpose here.

I want to talk about the sense of self worth. The opinion and belief you have about yourself.  And not just for self. But of the human race. In essence, The inherent right of dignity.

   A humanitarian is one who promotes the welfare of all humans. In order to be a true humanitarian to me, you must swear to the birthright of dignity and honour it above all else. We are all born the same and leave the same. Nothing prior too, or after life on earth makes you any less or better than any other human. To push the envelope here, I’m going to say that it is what you do here in the middle of before and after that determines your happiness in life and settles the score with your spiritual existence. If you don’t believe in the context of an after life….then what drives you? Just a thought. I’m working on mine here. 

We all have the birthright of dignity. It is our number one job to help one another. In this we also need to know that we need to help ourselves first. Nothing works outside if you can’t function on the inside first.

Without dignity…you are simply not living. To have no sense of value is simply zero. No quality, no love. No love, no living. To breathe without a sense of value is like living in pergatory. Just a thought I had as I write here.

        When I discovered Dignity, everything changed for me.

  In the light of what is happening right now in the world and all across the planet, I am fiercely determined to stand on the side of dignity and fulfill my human obligation to honour it.

     Dignity is the birthright of humanity. It is the sense of value. Every life has value. The sense of self worth. The sense we were never taught. The one that is most important.

   The world’s encounter with COVID-19 is something we will look back on one day. It has threatened mankind’s existence like never before. It has travelled the globe and affected everyone, wether you are infected or not we are all inflicted. 

   The way I see it?

This is Nature in whatever form you want to call it, demanding attention. We are being forced to re-evaluate our lives. The entire world is at complete mercy. Our sheer will to survive is being tested on levels that go against our very nature as social beings. We are all now fighting the same war, an invisible enemy. Does this not define unity? The value of life has no price.

This is an excerpt from my poetic pen…‼️AFTER THIS‼️

“What we have here

On planet earth

Not ever before

With every birth

Has there been a time

But always a prayer

To all get along

All over, everywhere

If I were to whisper

And thoughts here release

In all the world now

I think I see peace

To all fight together

Like never in history

Mother Earth she delivers

Her way is a mystery

All who have prayed

And those who have wished

What will you pray for

When we conquer this?”

   I find it relevant to mention as this crisis has brought us collectively together and offers us a chance to see world peace. We are being forced to see our value. To be reminded that our human needs are more important than our wants. To see that success was not where you were going, but in what you were celebrating. To see life and honour its value.

      The number one job in all of humanity, is to help one another and honour the right of dignity.

   This is the paradigm of all time and the opportunity to become a more peaceful  nation!  Mother Earth is demanding our attention.  She is forcing us to re evaluate our lives. The birthright of dignity is on the table. Let’s honour this right and pay attention. To ignore the call of nature only has dire consequences if you ask me. Nature always wins in the end.

   Without people? What is there?  We need to take care of our people. 

One day you may be in a great need of help…

     Be the leader you would want to have!

     Be the human you would want to know!

HONOUR THE BIRTHRIGHT OF DIGNITY!

When the future looks back upon this crisis, wouldn’t it be amazing and great if it was known as the paradigm of all time where the world changed for the better?

‼️DEAR PTSD‼️

‼️DEAR PTSD‼️

All of a sudden
Jolted bolt
I’m awake
And revolt

Sudden fear
Soaking wet
I’m afraid
All this sweat

In my room
Facing you
There you are
In my full view

Oh no you don’t
Come after me
I can’t stand
Anxiety

After all
I’ve come so far
At this hour
There you are

I want to scream
But I’m too scared
There’s no escaping
This is hard

Why did I wake
Why can’t I sleep
Where is my soul
For God to keep

I was so fine
For many day
And then you call
I hear you say

Oh the fool
Inside my heart
Wanted to
Believe your part

But now I know
You are a danger
Once I married
A total stranger

Unknown to me
Your evil blows
How my heart
Remembers so

And I alone
Know your secret
You try so hard
To make me keep it

Oh the sweat
Has chilled me now
I look around
And wonder how

I was not
In bed at all
But face to face
With evil’s call

What I know now
And didn’t then
You are not real
You’re fake again

To the anguish
PTSD
All the pain
And anxiety

Commander
In my head is me
I’m done with this
It will not be

I have spoken
I have said
You cannot hurt
What is dead

I stopped recalling
All you did
And now I’m living
Without your bid

Shivers let me
Feel my skin
It really helps
To see your sin

For now I know
And can abide
No more of this
And I won’t hide

🙏‼️𝙊𝙉 𝙂𝙊𝙊𝘿 𝙁𝙍𝙄𝘿𝘼𝙔‼️🙏

‼️ 𝙊𝙉 𝙂𝙊𝙊𝘿 𝙁𝙍𝙄𝘿𝘼𝙔‼️

I understand
Not all believe
And some who do
Still can’t conceive

Around the world
Are empty tables
Vacant temples
And fairy fables

Every single
Human being
Is more aware
To what they’re feeling

It drives right home
If you are threatened
Makes you think
You were forgetting

When asked to do
We get to choose
But when we’re told
We just have too

So at this time
When you are asking
Is there a reason
You are expecting

To make some sense
And understand this
You now have time
To see what you miss

On this day
So close to Easter
Golden eggs
Loose their lustre

All attention
From before
Different now
We want more

More help to get
More space to grow
More peace of mind
More love to show

The common thought
We all can’t see
Was always there
Was always free

The most important
And most prized
Above all else
Are human lives

On Good Friday
When you’re alone
Think of the son
From Father’s throne

It doesn’t matter
If you believe
Just think right now
Why you grieve

So much you had
And did ignore
What in the world
Was it all for

One day ahead
Or one behind
If you stop
You will find

That all along
As some are working
Just like the jobless
We’re all searching

For that purpose
And some value
Satisfaction
And some love too

Beyond all measure
And a doubt
No greater love
Has more clout

The one and only
In all of history
An innocent man
Murdered violently

For the reason
And so pure
A man on earth
For spirit cure

All the crime
And all the sins
To say “Oh God!”
What does it mean

It doesn’t matter
If you believe
Look past the facts
Religious creed

I have not said
And most do know
The greatest love
Was evil’s show

No one is wrong
No one is right
To ask for proof
Just shows your fright

How can we curse
And blame a man
Who only gave
All he can

When we cry
And ask for more
Why did we not
Thank him before

Upon the faces
Pressed to windows
Distorted views
God only knows

When we cry
And feel sorry
God’s own tears
Know this story

He has given
We have taken
Now’s an offer
To awaken
