i why don´ t they just make a machine that does our living,lily,darling, save a lot of messing.. we live all these years and then slowly our memory depletes them (though they say all memory lives within..) if we were programmed at the beginning some kind of limiting of emotion ambition etc.. alpha to epsilon brain washing soma.. *** but no reproduction endless fun order.. is belonging art gone the way sure.. simple dogma love or go love..* ii lily says love is meaningless unless we are ready to die.. who is.. would i.. i stood high to the very devil.. fall over weebil..ha.. but to die and see sun rise no more.. little bird sing in the silent dawn sweet voice eternal greeting.. blithe angel o children of the future.. messenger of the gods.. loyal gaurdian to ever and never.. outside and know a silent cosmos.. be born anew to heart be found..? *through-out the poem are references to the brilliant novel brave new world.for which i make no apology but as a mark of respect to great talent of aldous huxley..

why don ́t they just make a machine
To the gods of the north, I pray And raise my cup for the fallen ones Then I cry In Valhalla they'll sing Rain Red blood keeps pouring down Come Valkyries, join me on that final ride Here I lie bleeding Odin, I await thee The battle rages on New lines they're weaving The future, the past and the present They're one They will reveal their mask To show me a way to survive This bitter war Soon it will be over He will be the one We'll weave in And terror will now rule these lands When the battle is lost And the slain ones are chosen Valkyries will guide us home When the battle is lost And the slain ones are chosen Valkyries will guide us home Destiny A spinning wheel The path of glory Round and round come join us On your final ride to Asgard Let's move on fast Allfather waits So let's heed the final call For now We leave this world behind It's over All glory to the brave Still blood will rain Through storm and fire Let war winds reign It's the feast for the crows Follow the light Just follow the light Or fade away Soon it will be over He will be the one We'll weave in and terror will now rule these lands When the battle is lost And the slain ones are chosen Valkyries will guide us home When the battle is lost And the slain ones are chosen Valkyries will guide us home We'll keep on weaving We're crushing through lines With our battering swords We're marching on Assign the brave To survive This bitter war Soon it will be over He will be the one We'll weave in And terror will now rule these lands When the battle is lost And the slain ones are chosen Valkyries will guide us home When the battle is lost And the slain ones are chosen Valkyries will guide us home We'll heed the final call A call to arms The Valkyries will guide us home The finally I hear them say Carry on For Valhalla awaits you

No sign of life did flicker In floods of tears she cried All hope's lost it can't be undone They're wasted and gone Save me your speeches I know (They blinded us all) What you want You will take it away from me Take it and I know for sure The light she once brought in Is gone forevermore Like sorrowful seagulls they sang (We're) lost in the deep shades The misty cloud brought (A wailing when beauty was gone Come take a look at the sky) Monstrous it covered the shore Fearful into the unknown Quietly it crept in new horror Insanity reigned And spilled the first blood When the old king was slain Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Immortal land lies down in agony How long shall we Mourn in the dark the bliss and the beauty Will not return Say farewell to sadness and grief Though long and hard the road may be But even in silence I heard the words An oath we shall swear By the name of the one Until the world's end It can't be broken Just wondering how I can still hear these voices inside The doom of the Noldor drew near The words of a banished king I swear revenge Filled with anger flamed our hearts Full of hate full of pride We screamed for revenge Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Immortal land lies down in agony Vala he is that's what you said Then your oath's been sworn in vain (But) freely you came and You freely shall depart (So) never trust the northern winds Never turn your back on friends Oh I'm heir of the high lord! You better don't trust him The enemy of mine Isn't he of your kind and Finally you may follow me Farewell He said Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Quietly crept in and changed us all Nightfall Immortal land lies down in agony Back to where it all began Back to where it all began

blank page, wait for me
"A holstered product secretly hunts after its own end product-"                     "-not metal targets nor flying geese, but mortality." A man, with graying hair and pursed lips, told me this. A well-trained and prayered piety had crept along, pounced, and overcome him. Like Edison, a creative obsession gripped his spine and puppeteered the entire body. It was a plague, he called it, or something like that. Even at a young age, gaurdian 1 & 2 lulled him to the steeple's hiding. He noted how the steeple was always at mast. His children would observe the same detail, live the same routine. I studied the curious character for weeks. A facsimile of the Word seemed permanently pressed on his brain, trapped behind devout eyes- For weeks I studied him, give me more time! Each biblical page was scribbled and creased, share and reused. -no longer. "My holster found its mortal tonight, friend. I'll raise the barrel and create a grand scene." Slight pause, heavy breathe, slow speak. "Colossal at best." by Kendra Cook

Guardian angel
In a corner that is illuminated but dark There stands the guardian who fell Her beauty radiating as she watches The demons who walk, watch or talk She waits and waits until one bites To bring her into the pit of darkness Where everything seems to be hopeless While she fakes the ****** she deserves The window of her soul says it all Yet the demon stares and doesn't care And when the darkness is  over She raises up from the twilight Then she returns to the smiles Who awaits for her return. Because she is the gaurdian Who gave everything for them

Guardian
I wonder if she saw this coming DID she even think to change? NOT herself completely but just enough to regain strength? WHY would she let herself go? DIDNT she feel herself slipping away? I miss the happiness in her laugh TRY i said to her with every breathe i took I can see her face wash away HAVE i even tried my hardest TO keep her here LET alone, save her from herself GO she screamed as i stood there silent and stiff THE eyes of a lonesome girl drifted down MIRROR mirror on the wall IS that the girl i should have become? MY heart sank in my chest NIGHTMARE or real,my body is at rest

Bolded gaurdian
Out in the West, a Tale is told By Wise weathered Indians of old, Passed down as a Shamans Tale It told of Guardian Spirits... For Our Mother Earth and Father Sky On Sacred Lands only reverent pass by Those with Selflessness Come through To pray to Mother Earth and Father Sky Give thanks for Brother Sun and Sister Moon Some that the rite goes back to ancient eons Brought by the Anasazi to all his Children In praise for what they were given..... A wanderer Came upon these Sacred lands With ****** in his heart, and blood on his hands Father Sky sent his Spirit Hawk as Guard on the Land His cry in the Sky reached the ears of the Wolf Spirit A pile of bleached Bones the angry man came upon The Gaurdian Wolf Spirit Howled out a Warning As the Man's Spirit broke the Sacred Circle Bounding the Bear Spirit came to **** His Claw reached in and took the Hatred from his Heart But without it the Man lost his Spirit and Began to Die His death quick but not alone, he landed on a pile of bones With his Companions He lay, til the day he was just bone dry...JMF All the Work here is licensed under the Name ®SilverSilkenTongue and the © Property of J.Flack

Spirit Gaurdians of Sacred Lands
The sun had hid behind the clouds that day. All else was quiet. I lay out spreading my fingers along the wheat like grass that covered me entirely as I stared up towards the twilight; wishing that I had only to jump so I could soar among those bright dots against the cover of the night. If I closed my eyes I could almost taste those bright metallic drops, like warm milk spilling over the brim of the morning pal. That fantasy I harbored to lay on the cresent moon like a hammock against the night, only to have it dip me into the slosh of the Milky Way. That’s what I long for. Anything but here. All I ever wanted, all my dreams lay nestled between those stars, and as the morning sun peeked out from over the horizon, as the dew that covered my body rolled down gently to form tiny shimmering impressions against each blade of grass, as the first bird began to sing its song to welcome the heated smell of lilies and the fading of Pluto before the dawn, I felt as if I would cry. I knew, when that sun shone in all its concentrated rage that my life would go to hell again, as it did every day of my life. Daddy would wake up. All would go to hell.

My Gaurdian (The Beginning)
The common Indians, famous for visions, But actually infamous for their laziness. Me included. We need to rise above such lucid dreaming, Then we will observe our world improving. Yes, surely. And we won't feel the need to study elsewhere. The Indians who move out are necessarily required, To do petty cleaning or similar petty jobs, Your ego is too big for that. As much I have known you, you can't handle it, And I believe that I have known you the best, Your traits are all known to me. And that is why I keep on advising you, often needlessly. I know why you are upset and hopeless regarding me, Because I have always tried to be your parent, I tried to be your gaurdian angel. But you have killed the love inside you by yourself, I don't fear my own eternal loneliness as much, As much I fear your eventual failure. And your probable self-destructive nature at that time.

The Ethical Monotheist Directory
I sit here, now, on my porch faraway from that place that I had called home, away from the hate, pain, and depression that had festered inside me. But I sit here, also faraway, from the smell of the sweet honeysuckle that would grew savagely on the wooden fence. I sit faraway from the shimmering dew that I so loved when laying out in the open country for acres and acres that was my backyard. I sit faraway from the luminous sky that had so often taken me as a lover would in its never-ending arms. I sit here in Long Island, New York with a husband and no children to fill my ears. I say now to myself, a woman of twenty that I only ran from one hell to become so trapped within another. Chad. That’s his name. My husband. We ran away together when I was seventeen to New York so we could become husband and wife. How was I to know that life would turn out like this? I bet your asking yourself, “Does he beat her?” No. No. He doesn’t beat me. He wouldn’t dare. But instead he does something else; he hurts me, but in my heart. Just like my daddy did. I never thought that I could love someone so much as I love Chad. Every time I see him I can feel my heart skip a beat. Its as if I were seventeen again when we first meet.

My Gaurdian Pt. I
I wanted him so badly, that I’d do anything. Except go all the way. I stayed true to that and waited like a giddy schoolgirl till we were married. But by then and now, his love for me dimmed. I can see it in his eyes when he looks at me. That light that I would wait for every night when he came home tired from work would send me soaring. And when we kissed, oh boy, it’s as if I tasted that metallic heat of the stars all over again. But it’s different now. He’s found someone else. I know he did. I can feel it like only wives can when your husbands falling from your hands. My past was comming back to me. My own Haley came back to take what was mine again. I know it I can feel it like only a sister can. She was always a **** first takin away my Scott and now Chad. She comes back to taunt me as Mary comes back to sooth my soul. And my love’s fallen for her. The romance is gone, and I pleaded with him that romance, that blissful romance would become something more sober and enduring, but his ears were closed. He said he found another, plain just like that, someone who made his heart go pitter-patter as mine still does for him. Though he would never leave me, that I knew certainly, he chose to desert me in other ways. He’s never home, he does not call, those sultry notes he would have delivered to me stopped coming, and that embarrassing delivery boy that would sing out for all to hear that horrible three lined serenade never came knocking on our door. Silence. That was all that was left of us.

I got up out of bed putting on my slippers, worn down through the years, to see what all that sound was for. Haley was dead asleep holding tight to the pillow. Her head kept jerkin and I remember Mary sayin that people who ****** in there sleep was havin a bad dream. So I laid my hand on her head and stroked it soft like how Mary did it to us, and watched as she quieted down. Again I heard the noises and slipped out into the dark hallway to figure out what was going on. I was always curious to know why he made those noises when he was with Mary. I leaned against the doorway, half hiding behind the post to get a look. The grainy texture of the post underneath my fingers made me careful about catchin any splinters in my fingers like usual. Daddy was on top of Mary, sayin out mamas name softly, moving up and down on top of her with his eyes closed, I could tell cause I couldn’t see the whites of his eyes or the redness of ‘em seeing how he was drunk and all, while Mary laid under him, her hand over her mouth crying. Those tears so much like the summer rains rolled down her cheek catching the light of the moon just like they did on the blades of grass. I didn’t know what was happening, but I knew Mary didn’t like it. Daddy, not knowing I was there, asked Mary in a husky voice, scarcely above a harsh whisper, if she didn’t like it, and how he could remember her speaking out to him on there wedding night and such.

My Gaurdian Pt. V
Mom, how have you been? I can't believe its been so long All the memories in my head spin As I sing this 'I Miss You' song Its still so hard to believe You're not coming back to me True happiness is hard to achieve When I think how can this be? Though you're my gaurdian angel flying high I'd rather you be here But I know God does not lie This is how its meant to be and you're both near It was our fate Now we just have to learn No matter what we wont truly seperate Still for your embrace I yearn Mommie, I love you God had a good reason Just know that it was for the best , thats true He said for everything there's a season I have to accept your time has came and gone Before mine really began Now we're both where we belong Not going to forget , but I'm going to slowly get over this tragedy , I know I can Promise me one thing now Not to be sad Because you're here somehow For that I'm glad Put a smile on your face Your baby girl is protected by God's embrace And is growing at a fast pace Focusing on the beauty of grace I'll see you in my dreams tonight It'll be as if its real I'll hold you tight So the hole in my chest will finally seal

This wasn’t the first time daddy had asked Mary to come into his room, but I was so surprised that she called daddy by his first name but I didn’t say a word. That mad look in daddy’s eyes shone as bright as those sprinkled stars as he made his way beside the bed. “Come now darlin’, don’t make me beg for ya. I need my wife tonight I can’t help it.” His breath puffed out in waves of sour miasmic ***** as he bent down low to kiss Mary on her head. He stayed there just seeming to breath in her hair for a moment. Mary stayed stock still in the bed rubbing my head telling me it would alright. I didn’t know what was happnin’. “Can’t you see the girls are scared tonight?” Her voice rattled horasly, as if she was scared but she lay there firm. Daddy looked around suddenly as if tryin to find something lost. “Where’s Kylie?” he asked scratchin his head as if that made him think better. He peered into the dark, his eyes squinted a bit as he tried to see through the dark. He shook his head but I sat up and said “right here daddy.” I went up to touch his arm but Mary held me back. “Don’t touch him.” She whispered to me, then patting me on my arm until I quieted. “I don’t know Don,” Mary said to him, “Probably out like usual lookin’ up at those stars again. You know how she loves her stars.” Daddy laughed again then took Mary’s hand pullin her up from the bed. “Come on now Martha.” He cooed kissin her on her hand. “You’ve got to leave the girls to sleep on their own.” Mary tried to resist but daddy only laughed lacing his fingers in hers. I lay still that night, Haley held tight on my arm cryin silently. She was thirteen and kept whisperin over and over that it wasn’t right what he did to her. “Why are you cryin?” I asked her, but she only told me to hush and close my eyes. It must have been about an hour later when I heard sounds commin from the other room. The headboard was hitting against the wall and daddy was grunting while Mary’s voice, small was whimpering, almost cryin.

1967. I was ten years old on that old farm in Georgia. My mother died when I was three, leaving behind three girls for my daddy to take care of. He ‘took care’ of us good. When mama died he took to the drink. Sitting day in and day out on that old gritty brown chair pouring poison down his throat. I’ll never forget that one night when the wind outside was cryin' out to no one particular and the unforgiving cold slithered in like a mist through the cracks of our wooden house. Daddy had been talking in his sleep again to our mama, which was odd to me cause she was dead, but that never stopped him. We knew then, my sisters and me, that he was drunk, like always, but when he started hollering and crying for mama to come back we knew that he was done out. We huddled together in my older sister, Mary’s bed, while she lulled me and Haley to sleep rubbing our hair back, singing a sweet lullaby that I distantly remember our mama singing to us. That’s when it happened. Daddy shouted out “Martha!” real loud as if he could hear her voice and came running to where we were sleeping in my sister’s arms. “Martha.” Whispered daddy. He looked at Mary, eyes only a slit height open before he leaned against the wall waiting. “Why don’t you leave these girls alone to there bed and come on in with me?” Mary, I remember turned white as the moon on a clear night. Her clutch on Haley and me became like iron as she stared with wide eyes at daddy. “Not tonight Don.” She said shakily.

Thousands of Americans Dead at the hands of police officers. Look at the masses, all races, all religions. You've unleashed a torrent long-simmering tensions. What a sea of people in the capitol on a chilly December day. You've electrified a larger audience, Thousands of American citizens who can't breathe in their own communities. "This is an American march." a history making moment. He traced his small hand on his poster and wrote "Don't shoot me."

Thousands march to protest against police brutality in major US cities- The Gaurdian
This is about a girl who left her home to find herself in places she knew she could never be found A walking calamity Inside of her is a wild thing a dying thing She was a foster child. Her house was never home but she called it that anyway cuz when her childhood tasted like slammed doors and police sirens speeding the block she had to dream of a new reality. Contrary to popular belief the drug lords were not her friends and no she did not steal for fun. When you don't have a mother to teach you to be strong and the only parent gaurdian she ever knew never showed her that weakness and was gone She was stuck somewhere in the middle. So yes, this is about a girl who left her home to find herself in places she knew she could never be found.

Gaurdian Angel
She watches me, and smiles at my laughing face, but she is not stupid; she sees. She embraces me, and when I begin to cry, tears from her fall as well. She notices, and worries when I am not in her line of sight, because she knows its not right. She understands, and when she does not, she doesn't hesitate to apologize; though she is innocent. She protects me through a mask, because she is not what most see her as. She is my guardian, and over and over again has saved my life.   How does one thank her?                                                                                                      I am at a loss......
