What have you
done with the
ability and strength
and talents in
your care.
What did you do
with the space
and another chance
given to change
and redeem yourself.
The black hawk
hovered above in
the blue sky.
Reminding us
how to hover with
tenacity over the
things we do.
With determination
we press forward
to the mark
set before us.
Through dedication
we hunt down
and focus on
our target and
heartfelt desire.
Without eyes we
can't see anything.
To enjoy everything,
we must be
truly committed with
love.
Observant to the core.
We reach out
to the sky
because we want
to touch the moon.
We touch each
others life with
what we do
because we are
the builders.
Life come and go,
the future is
not long.
Time went by,
like the silent
years old.
We gracefully aged
with wrinkles as
the years quietly
and quickly visits,
to take us away.
What did you do
today with your
time and aloneness
with your family.
Are you still
playing the blame
game dear.
It's time to stop.
Every leaf that
grows will tell you:
what you sow
will bear fruit.
Therefore my friend,
sow nothing but Love.

He didn’t know
what it meant
to be a
son until he
became a father
of a son
who doesn't know
how to be
a true son.
A son who
acts like a
stranger in his
own home and
not comfortable
in his own skin.
Prodigal son
regrettably.
Prideful and
stubbornness are
wrapped up in him.
Messed up with
drugs and alcohol
and women.
A thief and
a bisexual young
man so lost
in the wildernesses
of life.
Without help he
will be consumed.
An only son.
Always away
from home,
a hobo seeking
for something
he doesn't know
or understand.
He doesn't even
know that
the sun has
set for him.
Said he didn't
want to inherit
the ignorance
of the father,
because he doesn't
want to follow
a decent path
to earn a living.
Doesn't want to
be counselled
or educated in
the rudiments of life.
He seems to
forget that
a man cannot
have a son
before his father.
He wished the
son is smart
enough to see
how dumb he is.
Still loves him
so very much
but it breaks
his heart to
see what the
son is doing
to himself.

Her love is
like a purple
folded depression.
Influenced by the
purple bewitched.
In a marvelous
mood of a
haunted soul.
Darkened by
the influence of
a magical force.
To put fear
in the heart
of the oppressed.
A multiple
personality she is.
A disorder of
a confused one.
So scary and
as mad as
a wild dog,
she screamed.
Influenced by
the new and
full moon.
Indulging in their
magical circle,
the talking drum
beckons her,
she dances to
the rhythm of
their passage rites
to bring their
ritual to an end.
She collapsed and
recovered from the
delirious hypnotic dream,
wondering what
just happened.
She didn't even
remember a **** thing.

How magnificent and
majestical the greatest
cathedral of all times
stood over 840 years,
hovering over France
with protective pride.
Towering as if
you want to
touch heaven.
Your beauty so
divine and beautiful.
Kings and Queens
and nobles of old
have sat within
your chambers.
With solemn calmness
you enfold the
worshipers with bliss.
None could resist
your beauty to
bring you harm,
only but now
by the hands of
the unknown ungodly
sadist who has
no fear of
truth and God.
You stood the
test of time
to tell us the
stories of old,
whisperings into our
ears the secrets
of the ancients.
You witnessed the
most horrendous
and countless wars,
yet they could
not bring you down,
even the ****.
Angels are weeping
for your glory is lost.
The heart of
the people of France
and the world are
broken to see how
low and degrading
they brought you.
Your cross stood
majestically as you
burn down refusing
to give up with ease.
Your beauty and
glory is eternally
etched in our hearts.
You will always
be remembered.
Notre Dame,
the Lord God
who dwelled within
your chambers
will not forget.
He saw your
fragile heart and
your helplessness  
as you burn.
But never mind,
he will definitely
do something.

I'm still here
standing in front
of the woman
i love wondering
if she's still
openly defending the
****** celebrity she's
never met before.
Whether she's
texting more
than one guy.
Wondering how many
of these guys
drinking and laughing
here she's
secretly seeing.
As she goes
to the ladies
bathroom to refresh,
does someone slip
some hidden note to
her for another
meeting with a guy.
Is she two timing.
Are my being played.
I really don't
know what is the
matter with me.
My heart is
so full and
my head are
spinning from these
nonsensical infestation
of nasty thoughts.
Just wondering
what this
is all about.
I needed you
to want me
as your very
own as much
as I want you.

A solemn peep
into the crack
beyond this realm
is not that
complex but it
ushers the best
into your
consciousness.
Trust the beauty
within
your own Universe,
not everyone
has the same
magical tapestry
of stars,
mystically aligned
to keep you company.
Athena is patiently
waiting for you
to pay attention
so you can
learn your new lesson.
Thoughts are electric,
feelings are magnetic.
Together they create
electromagnetic field
that attracts all
things to you.
Detach yourself
from frivolities
so your ego
will not stand
in your way
to cause your
weakness and
unhappiness.
Inner strength is
given to only
those whose sole
desire is to
conquer themselves.

This flitting time,
does it actually
really exist
at all as
we know it.
Time is an illusion.
It keeps moving,
without waiting for
anyone.
It is a
respecter of none.
This time used
it's power of
cunning craftiness
and deceived me
because i couldn't
cope with it's
illusory speed,
no one could.
I feel so defeated.
I can't catch up
with this illusion
of time magic.  
The past,present
and the future,
all exists at once
now at this moment.
Depending on
where you are
in your
consciousness.
You can be
anywhere in a
twinkle of a
moment with your
eyes closed.
Traveling to other
places takes you
to other different
time zones,
ahead of you
or still behind.
That place which
you have have been,
now is already
in the past.
Whatever plans you
conceive in your
mind or think
to do now is
in your future.
The things already
done are in
your past and
these can also
be remembered or
momentarily forgotten.
There is only
one absolute present.
The illusion of time
are crafted by
our memories.
This time travels
moves me as
fast as light.
But i live in
the present moment.
