If you believe

Tik tock click glock
a two edged blade
the pendulum slits
another cog flips
an inch to the left
a ear to the right
everyone heard
none exactly saw

Face the child.
Khoisan Jul 2024
Search your soul
look inside it's eyes
once
young
now old
.
There
stands
a
mirror
barefoot in the past
trace
its steps
pick up the shards

mend the cracks

and
shield
the scars

from future wrath
.
Now
open your heart
share this
wisdom
and
make them stars

[I believe that children are our future]

I

their words are restless
and
forever out there

those in need.
There

silence
in the still of the sight

Where parallels collide  
one wallowing
in the wind
one slipping from the sun
suffering in vain
swarms over the eclipse
where love
survives over pain
butterfly and moth
are best
left alone
flying in the rain.
Today I saw a butterfly.
flying in the rain
what an inspiration
a miracle me thinks?

Some see aliens in the architecture
others Gods and demigods.

Chaotic demographic blunders
Hubble to Web a trillion dollar set
GLOBONIC bilateral squander.

I still remember the time
I felt immortal
I do remember the times
I am immortal
I believe in the dream
I am immortal
I do remember
what and everywhere
I am immortal
when and everywhere
I am loved
by the ones who loved me back.

automatically abused
a drunk father
fundamentally removed
a twisted sister
consciously refused

A journalist in Gaza
Khoisan Oct 2023
He writes of the spaces in between
where few actually notice
taking note of movements
like blowing a whistle
he nibbles on his quill
observing shadows
below his lantern.

On a road to nowhere.
Khoisan Oct 2023
Black bombs fly
religious people lie
sky scrapers cleric capers
THOSE!!!! archaic papers rise
here human dwelling must crumble
and masses must die.
WHERE ARE THEY GOING TO???????
in this barren space of Arabic land
feet aimlessly plod
the elderly pray
widows wail
orphans weep
and babies cry
on the order 1947
sacked from a place called heaven
waves in a sandstorm
40 nights and 40 more....
THOSE!!!! ghouls are rotten to the core
killing innocence
and much, much more....

Where paths cross people meet
some stay over for a while
others disappear completely
some staved the cane
the rear view mirror
was never
a path

You can look at life
Camouflage hate
think of the stars
and disengage love
spin it around
inside out upside down
and you will find
at the end of the matrix
stood a clown.

Happiness and laughter

turn a heart inside out

stay woke wake at dawn
vicissitude are such

In love Loves Inn.
Khoisan Jul 2023
Some people say fools is a Rush-Inn
I haven't got a clue,
in between  Sunday's river
and Monday's blue
the place called
A rose in the moon
or maybe., A moth in the mirror
perhaps a firefly in bloom.
Love ain't easy
though occasionally,
awkwardly acute.

Prayer.
Khoisan Jul 2023
Love gathers momentum,
discourage evil
the slow brew of light over time,
your soul seeks one
just be patient with your mind
as it builds a spine,
shouldered on love
the heart crowns a captain
whom commands her/his eyes.

But their imagination certainly lives for it.
