In this cold mountain,
silence beckons.
It is a nightmare,
the final destination
is on the verge of collapse,
the spirit awakens,
for there's fear lurking
in the darkness
Inspite of everything.
Destroyed in seconds
our strength failed,
even our faith,
for strength is born out
of faith and passion.
Trembling and weak at
the knees the heart faints.
Light my eyes so I can see
better and deeper into
the realm beyond.
Rough night is envisaged,
for the hard sun had come
in the morning before.
The animal in us
unleashed to confront
the monster.
We must do the craziest
things to survive this bizarre
maze of a place.
There's a killer beside me,
a killer closer than your breath.
The sword of the spirit and
the power of love is stronger
than your heart.

Just looking for
words to describe
how this strange
evidence is made
because I'm baffled
by the way the whole
burden of it has been.
An ultimatum was
given to catch the
monsters that created
the ruse.
You will have enormous
power of life.
Immortality will be yours.
Invincibility accompanies you.
What you have seen is what
lies within and beyond
the veil of death,
but life eternal is in you.
Bring back the chosen
to make our lives right.
Sand of our ancient
ancestral land,
come to our rescue
and free your people from
this *******.
Wind of the spirit divine
engulf our being and
saturate it with your life.
Heaven,release us from this yoke.
Earth,tremble and swallow
them so I can have life over death.
Water,purify and cleanse us.
With this sacrifice you
shall become a god.
Whatever life remains,
you are still a man.

Without a paddle,
the right paddle,
will there be a
perfect ride to a score.
The passengers surfers
but surely will survive.
Are you the guardians
of the galaxy or the earth.
How did you now become
the masters of the universe.
This bizarre impression,
this beautiful fantastic
notion with hidden figures
is impossible to fathom.
There are deadly secrets
lurking by the side
waiting to manifest.
Don't tell anyone they say,
but how can you not even
see their hidden presence.
Within you lies the power to
evade the tremendous impact
of their monstrous acts.
The tipping point is here to
turn around everything to
your advantage.
What you lose on the swing
you gain on the roundabout.
Deal or no deal there will
be a total wipe out.
When a snake is about to
swallow another snake,
there is always a battle,
but one has to die in order
for the other to live.

He was asked to play
the seventh count of
suicide sudden death game
in the Russian roulette to
save his family dynasty
from being wiped out by
an aristocrat billionaire
in a long age old feud.
No one is allowed to enter
but the strong hearted.
Couldn't you just
see the secret plan
for your demise.
That death sentence
was like getting on a
roller coaster that
had steep drops,
neck breaking curves,
and no restraining bar.
To love your family this
much must be awesome,
worthy of infinite importance.
Willingness to sacrifice
yourself is profound.
With luck on his side,
to survive he must.
This is where deadly surprises
and chance will meet luck.
Determined to live or die,
he defiantly persisted.
This last shot got him out
of the game.
He won and became the man of
unbeatable luck.
His family dynasty secured
and freed from the death feud.
Once again he can walk around
as a freeman.
Yes he survived and
the family survived yet again.
What a great sacrifice.

Naked and afraid,
a street outlaw,
a social *****,
an outcast
and yet still wanted
for a season,
and for a reason,
not a kept woman,
not capable of
loving anyone
wandering and roaming
the back alleys,
in search of immoral
fulfillment.
Lonely and alone,
tired most times,
drunk and abandoned,
overloaded and overdosed
with narcotics just to forget  
and get on with life.
Yet struggles to survive,
always in a mess,
a menace even to herself.
Living a life chosen by few,
dreaded by the faint hearted.
It was not like this before,
how did she get here.
She said it's not her fault,
society created her
out of rejection,
molded her to be a
monster she didn't deserve,
then blame her for being
who she turned out to be.
She lost her true self,
lost her identity and
hides behind her pain.
She cries in the dark where
no one will  see her.
She suffers alone when
caught in the hands of the law.
All she ever wanted
was for you to love her.
I asked why,
why do people step into ****
and expect to come out
covered with roses.
Let's help clean her up,
she wants to survive
for she deserves more.
Give her a better life
a lot better than this.
She is your sister,
maybe your daughter,
a relative or an aunt.
In your sphere of contact,
do whatever you can,
in any way necessary
and humanly possible to help,
each one reach one.

One must travel
over the mountains,
the seas and over
the dessert,
beyond the wall,
and beyond every
comfort zone
to discover the
real truth about this
world we are living in.
Hidden inside the
forest and deep within
the ocean are placed the
things needed to sustain us.
Man needs to awaken
from our deep slumber
to discover and cultivate it.
Who will save the
kingdom and the people.
The universe is connecting
everything to suit you.
The world awaits you,
stretch forth your hands.
To awaken within the dream
is our purpose now.
When we are awake
within the dream,
the ego-created earth-drama
comes to an end
and a more benign and wondrous dream arises.
This is the new earth.
Let's possess the earth
and make it a little grandeur,
much better sacred save heaven.
