Behold Nigeria my motherland A land that sits upon the hills of many waters A country built on the ancient landmark of heroes band An Eagle that protects her citizens in the arms of her feathers. A beautiful Nigeria whose fields are as green as green could ever be An Iroko that stands on the root of peace and unity A fertile land that is as fertile as fertility can ever be A united people, a proud nation void of segregation nor discrimination in her city. My motherland a land that upholds the staff of dignity and natural endowment A land of unity and peace glowing like a river of gold across the horizon A nation that feeds on the diet of heavens supplement An ocean that runs through the test of raging storms un-torn. My motherland! My motherland! A Nigeria that adores her women more highly than the Queen of England An Olive that yields more than the cedars of Lebanon A land whose daughters are as beautiful as the daughters of Job in Jerusalem's land An independent country as powerful as the King Nebuchadnezar of Babylon. It's Nigeria my motherland A land that rests on the pillars of her freedom A country seated on the pearls and treasures of many Ireland A Nigeria that lives on the soil of heavens wisdom.

My Motherland
BLESSED be this place, More blessed still this tower; A ****** arrogant power Rose out of the race Uttering, mastering it, Rose like these walls from these Storm-beaten cottages -- In mockery I have set A powerful emblem up, And sing it rhyme upon rhyme In mockery of a time HaIf dead at the top. Alexandria's was a beacon tower, and Babylon's An image of the moving heavens, a log-book of the sun's journey and the moon's; And Shelley had his towers, thought's crowned powers he called them once. I declare this tower is my symbol; I declare This winding, gyring, spiring treadmill of a stair is my ancestral stair; That Goldsmith and the Dean, Berkeley and Burke have travelled there. Swift beating on his breast in sibylline frenzy blind Because the heart in his blood-sodden breast had dragged him down into mankind, Goldsmith deliberately sipping at the honey-pot of his mind, And haughtier-headed Burke that proved the State a tree, That this unconquerable labyrinth of the birds, cen- tury after century, Cast but dead leaves to mathematical equality; And God-appointed Berkeley that proved all things a dream, That this pragmatical, preposterous pig of a world, its farrow that so solid seem, Must vanish on the instant if the mind but change its theme; Saeva Indignatio and the labourer's hire, The strength that gives our blood and state magnani- mity of its own desire; Everything that is not God consumed with intellectual fire. III The purity of the unclouded moon Has flung its atrowy shaft upon the floor. Seven centuries have passed and it is pure, The blood of innocence has left no stain. There, on blood-saturated ground, have stood Soldier, assassin, executioner. Whether for daily pittance or in blind fear Or out of abstract hatred, and shed blood, But could not cast a single jet thereon. Odour of blood on the ancestral stair! And we that have shed none must gather there And clamour in drunken frenzy for the moon. IV Upon the dusty, glittering windows cling, And seem to cling upon the moonlit skies, Tortoiseshell butterflies, peacock butterflies, A couple of night-moths are on the wing. Is every modern nation like the tower, Half dead at the top? No matter what I said, For wisdom is the property of the dead, A something incompatible with life; and power, Like everything that has the stain of blood, A property of the living; but no stain Can come upon the visage of the moon When it has looked in glory from a cloud.

Blood And The Moon
BLESSED be this place, More blessed still this tower; A ****** arrogant power Rose out of the race Uttering, mastering it, Rose like these walls from these Storm-beaten cottages -- In mockery I have set A powerful emblem up, And sing it rhyme upon rhyme In mockery of a time HaIf dead at the top.

Good king Selassie looked out on the feast of Marley When the kush lay round about dank and green and sticky Loudly bumped reggae that night As the king did turn When a stoner came in sight Gathering kush to burn "Come here boy and stand by me if you know this then say; where would that young stoner be at the end of this day?" "My King he lives quite far away rather close to Babylon where exactly I can not say he surely lives in Zion." "Bring me kush and fine hashish bring me bongs and paper You and I, his base shall reach bringing dank kush vapour!" Island boy and Selassie went across great Zion eyes all red and mouths all dry They rode upon the lion "King, my eyes are growing white and we smoked our last spliff I fear that I may die tonight play me one last reggae riff..." "Island boy you don't recall who it is you roll wit unto me JAH trusted all of the kush on this planet!" So Selassie I was blessed they were high once more the stoner was offered the rest of what they had in store Therefore rasta men be sure if you have that dank kush share it with your brothers poor and find yourself with more bush

Good King Selassie
Rivers of Babylon flows on biceps Hairly face, pin nose of unmade make up Sparks beauty in her lonely sky face Which suitors commit adultery in words For wishes of closeness, I wish in millions in one day Time only divide us, but our soul are conjugated On a plain of misty air, how beautiful and sad it is Our wishes drown us onto the path of loneliness Did you see loneliness my love ? But why I can't see it my love ? How about our God ? I am in your vast blue sky, and every night I am sleeping in your warm heart Filling the gap that resides in me For all my breathe belongs to you My days of soil and unsoiled cloaks you in me I love your hands...دست های تو را دوست دارم for they are divine In it does the words of love burn like the sun Making the lonely persian jasmine smile As the gulf waves secret writing on your heart I Belteshazzar love the writing till the end of my life Solemn steel avouch with sun and water Yet the loose their beauty crying to the air for help Humans without their eyes are still beautiful So their loneliness become a persian jewelry Written by Martin Ijir

The Lonely Persian Jasmine
Babylon has fallen! Aye; but Babylon endures Wherever human wisdom shines or human folly lures; Where lovers lingering walk beside, and happy children play, Is Babylon! Babylon! for ever and for aye. The plan is rudely fashioned, the dream is unfulfilled, Yet all is in the archetype if but a builder willed; And Babylon is calling us, the microcosm of men, To range her walls in harmony and lift her spires again; The sternest walls, the proudest spires, that ever sun shone on, Halting a space his burning race to gaze on Babylon. Babylon has fallen! Aye; but Babylon shall stand: The mantle of her majesty is over sea and land. Hers is the name of challenge flung, a watchword in the fight To grapple grim eternities and gain the old delight; And in the word the dream is hid, and in the dream the deed, And in the deed the mastery for those who dare to lead. Surely her day shall come again, surely her breed be born To urge the hope of humankind and scale the peaks of morn -- To fight as they who fought till death their ****** field upon, And kept the gate against the Fate frowning on Babylon.

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the end of love Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon Show me slowly what I only know the limits of Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the children who are asking to be born Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn Dance me to the end of love Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the end of love Dance me to the end of love

Dance Me To The End Of Love
Eid in Babylon sits on his high chair, on knees of snow. Grandparents smile for the beloved alleys of Babylon and overlook the mighty Euphrates. Eid in Babylon is a bright face of dawn. Magic smiled on his hands like the hearts of the Babylonians. These civilizations have occurred here, do you not see all these lighthouses and the sounds of eternity? Don't you see dew hearts where lovers' poems here mired in their dreams? At sunset, we will bid farewell to the spirit of rebellion. At sunset, a new Eid will be rise in Babylon.

Up early as usually but this time with a mission to complete Halloween Costumes. Not a pain free day most definitely, but have kids who rely on me to be a good mom. Everyone has haters; the two faced, "your girls" wanting your guy or envy clothes style, or randoms you never met, desiring your life, home or new car bought with hard work. Most days what's posted on sites about me makes not a bit of difference in my world, I ignore and move on with my life, know haters have nothing better to do than gossip. No news is good news and nothing from my usual "Town Criers" saying "Guess What?" One day got messages in text, "You have been labeled Babylon's ***** by Craiglisters!" Not a "lol" nor "Roflmao" situation. Thinking, What in the world? and How in the world? Me, Ms. Abstaining and they, who love assuming and posting drama without thought. Their world; small town America and believers of truth in "all" internet rumors and media, not willing to give benefit of doubt, once minds, so limited in thought, have been made up. E-mail inquiries from potential employers I never met from destinations far far away, asking and informing that person with such low morals shall never be part of their world. Drama finds me and neither welcome nor do I seek it out, way too emotionally draining, believer in live and let live, authored "Celibacy" poem to stop jokes made to my kids. Who knew that trying for your dreams could bring forth bringers or illogical pure hatred? Who knew that emotions of my children whom I love, would be affected by narrow minds? After family conference and with full support, by the way, had to explain ***** to son, this mom carries on and still on second journey pursuing dreams and making realities. If I give up dreams it will never be because someone posted bold faced lies on open forum, it will be because I choose to do it with good reasons and those reasons are mine alone. Pitfalls? Have been numerous. Will? Strong and still determined to see this through to end. Tomorrow isn't promised and hear my dad say, "Daughter, go forth and let haters be fuel!"

A satellite is watching its ants, Broadcasting the pixelated sins of your fathers, Just      like          snow Go on sew, Sew your seams little one, All this humanism is bound to bust when you all find yourselves- Eating cotton Turn on the television, I am naked, I need to hide, Turn off the lights, I need darkness, To abide, And Babylon is seeping through the screens, Demean us all, Demean us all, As long as I can be seen, Demean me please, Ease the curse of this vulnerability, How do I survive on this tilted planet? What's the use of living, If I'm not alive? Was man meant for this? All these cages, My job my house my car my body, Is anybody conscience of this missing bliss of life? Who can see, All     the         nakedness                        like                          me The world washes over our bodies The world washes over our bodies The world washes over our bodies

The Dystopian Part Nullus: Fear
In the dour ages Of drafty cells and draftier castles, Of dragons breathing without the frame of fables, Saint and king unfisted obstruction's knuckles By no miracle or majestic means, But by such abuses As smack of spite and the overscrupulous Twisting of thumbscrews: one soul tied in sinews, One white horse drowned, and all the unconquered pinnacles Of God's city and Babylon's Must wait, while here Suso's Hand hones his tack and needles, Scouraging to sores his own red sluices For the relish of heaven, relentless, dousing with prickles Of horsehair and lice his ***** ***** While there irate Cyrus Squanders a summer and the brawn of his heroes To rebuke the horse-swallowing River Gyndes: He split it into three hundred and sixty trickles A girl could wade without wetting her shins. Still, latter-day sages, Smiling at this behavior, subjugating their enemies Neatly, nicely, by disbelief or bridges, Never grip, as the grandsires did, that devil who chuckles From grain of the marrow and the river-bed grains.

A Lesson In Vengeance
"hell yeah?" the burglar asked the pusher. (the burglar: wirily, ambitious. plain appearance, dressed in black. the pusher: wealthy, strong and well-conditioned. sumptuous leather jacket.) "hell yeah", the pusher answered. "now i got what i like and you got what you need." both grinned. after a day of extensive work, they relaxed in a hellish pub. it was visited by diplomatic creatures whose faces were recognizable like shadows. this pub was called babylon 8. the burglar and the pusher touched glasses to celebrate their deal. they drank. "nothing to be written down", the pusher added. burglar nodded. voices of the diplomatic creatures surrounding them; satanic sighs; bold laughter; their sentences sounded like orders that are dictated by judges.    snakes and rats. gravelpitbulls and red cats. creatures with excellent memory. guys who swallow their plans after they had learned them by heart. a while later, a lady entered the pub: adorable like a man's fantasy; imitable like a woman's strategy. her hair color was your desire; her skin color the color of your dreams. her name was fantasy girl. suddenly, the lights went out; suddenly, a lightblue sun illuminated the room. no one noticed. everyone so busy hiding something that nothing was hid. the creatures of babylon 8 therefore didn't perceive the light. fantasy girl ordered a drink. she told the bartender: "i need freedom. that's what i want from you, the people of babylon 8." the bartender a giant with a face full of shining scars; his right ear missing; flashy shirt; an ancient first name; speaker of all world languages combined: the omerta. fantasy girl took a sip from a silver brew which had been served to her by the bartender. she took out a single match and there was no box; a long cigarette between her unknown lips. bartender looked at fantasy girl. without saying a word, he turned his stubble cheek into her direction. fantasy girl lighted the match. lightblue fire. inhaling. smoke. iceblue cloud. the burglar and the pusher had been looking at fantasy girl all the time. fantasy girl held a white fountain pen and took a black sheet out of a green handbag. she began to write.

Concerned, my wellbeing doesn’t come into it neither does my wife’s; but worried I am, for my children’s future, my children children’s future and for my great, great grandchildren too. I listen with horror, I watch and shudder, I read and feel misery; when the wind blows, because time enough at last,( or is it?), I gaze at the old man in the cave, with a little peace and quiet, will it be shelter skelter? Are we in quarantine? Chosen? For a new place, alas, Babylon with perhaps Dr Strange Love? Maybe there is no soul within the man, unless the balanced man became unbalanced, what reason has a man got, (even if he’s people are suffering from punishment), To justify such actions? Perhaps Pak Pong-ju is not a man, Could he be God’s apprentice God’s messenger God’s terminator, to emulate ***** and Gomorrah or Pompeii? Why should we shoot the messenger? If this is the case then truly I should be concerned, my wellbeing doesn’t come into it neither does my wife’s; but worried I am, for my children’s future, my children children’s future and for my great, great grandchildren too.

Moment of Explosion Approaching Fast
The flames branching upwards in a spire It's cruel twists never seem to tire A dark soul comes from the fire It's Sam, a kid they all admire Fables try to claim thee Through stories of a tree Branching upwards in a plea A widow stares at a stain, left by the rain Constructs a local fane, all in her saviours name Caught between the fear and guilt Of living off someone's fame Knowing the day it all stops, she'll be engulfed by a flame Abaddon is calling, Ezekiel is balling Babylon returns Mathias saw the world, while Belial just watched it burn With immense follow through The path becomes true As he watches triple 7's disciple scamming for a buck or two Out on a past due lease The Man Of Peace

Duality
Black candles burn, and the wick of life slowly reduces her beautiful self to certain uncertainty. I don’t know about you, but I have been bewitched by the seductions of Eve. Why? Because she is spellbindingly irresistible in her raunchy nakedness. Babylon may reign in the guise of liberty – but how blissful truly is ignorance? Geological mockery echoes her ****** laughter in the canyons of inevitability, whilst we stand on the precipice of conception. So, my seasoned companion of confusion, let us rest in ontological comfort as the universe unrolls the carpet of kaleidoscopic dreams. Everything is fine. Honestly!

My walls are big n strong Like that of Babylon None can do me wrong As I stay on my toes and strive on The walls seem seamless But it's all for a reason So I'll let you in on a little secret The pain hid the door And the gate won't open Till I'm reassured that I'm not letting in a Trojan horse

Walls
The child alone a poet is: Spring and Fairyland are his. Truth and Reason show but dim, And all’s poetry with him. Rhyme and music flow in plenty For the lad of one-and-twenty, But Spring for him is no more now Than daisies to a munching cow; Just a cheery pleasant season, Daisy buds to live at ease on. He’s forgotten how he smiled And shrieked at snowdrops when a child, Or wept one evening secretly For April’s glorious misery. Wisdom made him old and wary Banishing the Lords of Faery. Wisdom made a breach and battered Babylon to bits: she scattered To the hedges and ditches All our nursery gnomes and witches. Lob and Puck, poor frantic elves, Drag their treasures from the shelves. Jack the Giant-killer’s gone, Mother Goose and Oberon, Bluebeard and King Solomon. Robin, and Red Riding Hood Take together to the wood, And Sir Galahad lies hid In a cave with Captain Kidd. None of all the magic hosts, None remain but a few ghosts Of timorous heart, to linger on Weeping for lost Babylon.

Lo! Death has reared himself a throne In a strange city lying alone Far down within the dim West, Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best Have gone to their eternal rest. There shrines and palaces and towers (Time-eaten towers and tremble not!) Resemble nothing that is ours. Around, by lifting winds forgot, Resignedly beneath the sky The melancholy waters lie. No rays from the holy Heaven come down On the long night-time of that town; But light from out the lurid sea Streams up the turrets silently— Gleams up the pinnacles far and free— Up domes—up spires—up kingly halls— Up fanes—up Babylon-like walls— Up shadowy long-forgotten bowers Of sculptured ivy and stone flowers— Up many and many a marvellous shrine Whose wreathed friezes intertwine The viol, the violet, and the vine. Resignedly beneath the sky The melancholy waters lie. So blend the turrets and shadows there That all seem pendulous in air, While from a proud tower in the town Death looks gigantically down. There open fanes and gaping graves Yawn level with the luminous waves; But not the riches there that lie In each idol’s diamond eye— Not the gaily-jewelled dead Tempt the waters from their bed; For no ripples curl, alas! Along that wilderness of glass— No swellings tell that winds may be Upon some far-off happier sea— No heavings hint that winds have been On seas less hideously serene. But lo, a stir is in the air! The wave—there is a movement there! As if the towers had ****** aside, In slightly sinking, the dull tide— As if their tops had feebly given A void within the filmy Heaven. The waves have now a redder glow— The hours are breathing faint and low— And when, amid no earthly moans, Down, down that town shall settle hence, Hell, rising from a thousand thrones, Shall do it reverence.

The City In The Sea

When the Earth was spinning, All vacant and wasted, And a voice that came thundering, All the poison, that you all tasted, And all the one left, now unwashed, hearing nothing but silence, becoming the one's who suffered, when all the believers, died, and the non believers, survived, the destruction of the planet, hatred heated by a human cannon. Now who will pray for Babylon, When humanity acts upon, Now, Who will sing for Babylon, When Humanity is the Evil Spawn, Now who will pray for Babylon, Amon of the breath and Air, Amon, where is Thebes, Now, Who will sing for Babylon, Humanity, Governments, Religion, Black, LGBTQ Communities, Planting the Evil Seeds. When the Earth was spinning, All vacant and wasted, Adam and Eve was created, To love and be Mother Earth, Father Dearest, Forbidden Fruit that sent you, to Hell, Oh Adam, You're the Devil, Lucifer, Adam, Did you heard the snake voice, Why did you follow the advice, To pick and eat, Do you live in all of us, Do we eat, to become Deceit. Now who will pray for Babylon, When humanity acts upon, Now, Who will sing for Babylon, When Humanity is the Evil Spawn, Now who will pray for Babylon, Amon of the breath and Air, Amon, where is Thebes, Now, Who will sing for Babylon, Humanity, Governments, Religion, Black, LGBTQ Communities, Planting the Evil Seeds. When the Earth was spinning, All vacant and wasted, Everything is our posion, Welcome Poseidon beside us, Say Hello Pontius, God in our heads, Run to the Waves of that the tide tends, In foul disposition trends, As we welcome all our catasthrophes, All the hate, all the lies, All our devine that we hide in Denial, Suicidal Kings and Queens, Here our Heresy, Maybe Religion is a win, Maybe it just a way of sin, All I know it just a linchpin of support, Belief and stability, Belief and hatred, Maybe Communities in it to win it, to scream and fight and hit back, False Flag, Attack that, Found Guilty through entrapment, Of our commandments, You're cooperation is commended, Since the corporation demands it. Now who will pray for Babylon, When humanity acts upon, Now, Who will sing for Babylon, When Humanity is the Evil Spawn, Now who will pray for Babylon, Amon of the breath and Air, Amon, where is Thebes, Now, Who will sing for Babylon, Humanity, Governments, Religion, Black, LGBTQ Communities, Planting the Evil Seeds.

Free your mind, pure thy soul and free thyness from hate Babylon wickedness shall encounter its fate Heavens are open for those who livicate Them souls in vision to reach the holy gate. Marihuana elevate I and I to be self-conscious Jah people we forever righteous Babylon can search and conquer, them never find us Jah shall protect us from everything malicious. Hail King Selassie for his pure wisdom In holy Mount Zion shall we find our freedom Jah do save us, Babylon is taking us at random Rise Rasta rise, the system can never shut us down. Pretty soon we shall all share the peace and joys It’s all a matter of internal choice Right up Mount Zion shall Babylon perish from our anointed voice Oh yes Babylon...in heaven we shall all rejoice.

Chant Down Babylon
Your Messiah is not Christ my Karma is not your dogma Their AntiChrist is not the Mahdi His avatar is not yet manifest Our Dajjal is not their 12th Imam Your Brahman is not my Elohim The Atman is not the God-Man Your God-Man is Luciferian Our Lucifer is not their Allah The Djinn are undocumented some angels fell Allah is not Ras Tafari Their Zion is Babylon Jerusalem is Egypt or ***** Their Angels are ascended Masters Our Master is your ascended Savior My Savior is your accuser Their God is no Savior His unction is Satanic The war is spiritual The Spirit is not obvious My anointing is carnal their anointing is moronic our doctrine is angelic Your rejection was predestined our acceptance is divine Our depravity is documented, your sanctity is illusory their power is diabolic their light is darkness Their leader is ungodly Our God is unseemly His Truth is offensive The bitter is not sweet the sweet is unworldly the world is not heavenly. Trinity in seven spirits, yet God is One… Revel in the uncertainty. Have some holy fun fitting more angels on the pin-head, dancing before they fall. Rebellion is always entrancing until the current postmodern theology hooks up with psycho-sexual linguistic pathology. Don’t accept my apology
