Sovereignty

Jun 24, 2018

Hello again! said the boot to the face,
stamping atop in a pretence of grace.

Offering wonderous gift-wrapped lies:
all you want, so long as freedom dies.

With followers obeying what they say,
to power despots will carve their way.

Masked like rulers, queens and kings;
marionettes pulled by unseen strings.

Fear, greed, ignorance or false cause;
the fuel for any tyranny that ever was.

An old story told by unheeded voices;
perchance time for different choices?

Nevermore serve slavery and murder;
draw the line – this far but NO further!

Surely if humanity grows a backbone,
any would-be tyrants will stand alone.

Serenity

Jun 19, 2018

May all experience rejuvenating rest,
so to meet life with revigorated zest.
To have loved ones steadily abreast;
by friends, ever the welcomed guest.
To know a communion truly blessed,
and receive courage to face any test.
To always seek to bring out the best,
and ever invite gratitude to manifest.

Value

Jun 18, 2018

Each passing moment has a cost;
choose well what matters utmost.

Frivolously, or by conscious intent;
nonetheless our life force is spent.

To either fuel the destructive race,
or making the world a better place.

Every choice, part of the total sum,
affecting generations yet to come.

As those who lived to be wise say:
lies are not worth the price we pay.

Walking a path with truth as guide,
we may yet abide past false divide.

Sprout

Jun 17, 2018

Every soul has a true treasure;
so precious, beyond measure!

As a seed lingering in the dark,
deeply yearning for life’s spark.

Dance, song or a life well lived;
by the same source conceived.

Find and nourish your own art;
beauty radiates to every heart!

Alike

Jun 16, 2018

A matriarch or patriarch?
The outcome is yet stark.
How about right and left?
Different hands, still theft.
In all shapes and colours;
lust for power over others.
By whichever given name,
slavery remains the same.
Either overted or coverted,
freedom is still subverted.
Not within either extreme;
balance is found between.
Any rape is still too much;
are other peaks not such?
Let’s now forsake the lies,
as to rise anew, truly wise!

Motion

Jun 15, 2018

Glorious mischief be a-foot;
humanity is in for a re-boot!

Worn shoes unfit for dance;
the transition is our chance.

To be truly freedom bound,
with feet on sacred ground.

So come all Souls still wild:
stride with the turning tide!

Depth

Jun 14, 2018

False ego, parasite, program and akin;
we cannot lie to those dwelling within.

For what is on our minds they can tell;
our thought they know intimately well.

So our hope does not rest with escape,
rather in changing the inner landscape.

To embrace a deeper truth as our way;
one so profound that we can truly say:

“Even as I shall dance closer to death,
I choose to welcome life’s raw breath.”

Temptation

Jun 13, 2018

Ever alluring to escape the calling of life;
one often rife with doubt, woe and strife.

And yet, joy may also cause eyes to tear;
beyond fear, something true awaits near.

While purpose may appear hard to know,
if we grow, the unwinding path will show.

So hear anew the beating ancestral drum;
love’s hum echoes what we may become.
