"millet" poems
It’s something that try we should To provide the parrot its basic food Apple minus seeds mango banana Grape orange guava papaya As for vegetables cooked dried bean With beet broccoli its heart you can win Cucumber carrot and cauliflower They surely love like they love a shower Corn on the cob is fun for parrot They aren’t fussy as them you thought Hot peppers peapod lettuce For them delicacies you can choose Sweet and baked potato well cooked yam They devour in delight add to their glam Parrots are cute friendly and nice Give them oatmeal millet brown rice They’re not greedy from you they won’t beg Though these birds love scrambled boiled egg The parrot is innocent gorgeous and sweet Can’t call them carnivore yes they like meat Must talk to them and not keep your mouth shut Your loving pet the parrot loves occasional nut. Now words of caution what don’t do them good Candy and chocolate and all junk food I know you are smart and not at all mean To offer this wonder bird mushrooms caffeine Believe my words they aren’t my opinion Use them in your food don’t give them onion Dairy products for them are a big ‘no’ ‘no’ You surely want them to healthily glow Give the parrot shower keep its cage clean Give them just fresh foods no sugar no caffeine Say ‘no’ to pesticides choose only organic See in their bowel nothing goes toxic Follow what I’ve said the task is not hard Spend your time well with this beautiful bird.

Parrot Care
for Hazel and Joe Just walking the parrot Said the lady on the beach He's so shy you know this bright bird If he were to sit on my shoulder Seeing you children come toward him He'd fly off and away with the gannets So he stays safe in his basket Swinging on his perch to and fro Snacking on cuttlefish and a millet bar My son Steve brought him back from Belize He's been my companion four years this June No, he doesn't speak but he does a fine squark

Walking the Parrot
**How can you be truly tough In this painful world? How can you stand firm When the spears of agony are hurled? Most people in the proud US of A Don't have a clue of the price they have to pay. Western people do not know What hardship really is. So gratitude is lacking... It is this... Gratitude is having a *** That doesn't leak, To walk miles for diseased Water from a creek. Gratitude in thanking God For the dry wood To cook the rice or millet For your food. Gratitude is finding A pair of shoes In a garbage heap That you can use. Gratitude is finding Pesos in your hand When you beg the streets In a poor land. Gratitude is escaping Vicious thugs Who deal in human Trafficking and drugs. Gratitude is Hellen Keller With no hope Finding Annie Sullivan To cope. Gratitude is having NOTHING And in pain On one's deathbed, but yet The fact remains They are redeemed And they have Lord Jesus' grace So they know that they Will look in his sweet face. Being tough is seeing life As is and still not breaking Being brave and looking Not forsaking Being tough is a Mental attitude. Loving God and thanking Him It's GRATITUDE.** SoulSurvivor Catherine Jarvis (C) September 28, 2014

Truly Tough
You whom I could not save Listen to me. Try to understand this simple speech as I would be ashamed of another. I swear, there is in me no wizardry of words. I speak to you with silence like a cloud or a tree. What strengthened me, for you was lethal. You mixed up farewell to an epoch with the beginning of a new one, Inspiration of hatred with lyrical beauty, Blind force with accomplished shape. Here is the valley of shallow Polish rivers. And an immense bridge Going into white fog. Here is a broken city, And the wind throws the screams of gulls on your grave When I am talking with you. What is poetry which does not save Nations or people? A connivance with official lies, A song of drunkards whose throats will be cut in a moment, Readings for sophomore girls. That I wanted good poetry without knowing it, That I discovered, late, its salutary aim, In this and only this I find salvation. They used to pour millet on graves or poppy seeds To feed the dead who would come disguised as birds. I put this book here for you, who once lived So that you should visit us no more.

Dedication
When will the day bring its pleasure? When will the night bring its rest? Reaper and gleaner and thresher Peer toward the east and the west:-- The Sower He knoweth, and He knoweth best. Meteors flash forth and expire, Northern lights kindle and pale; These are the days of desire, Of eyes looking upward that fail; Vanishing days as a finishing tale. Bows down the crop in its glory Tenfold, fifty-fold, hundred-fold; The millet is ripened and hoary, The wheat ears are ripened to gold:-- Why keep us waiting in dimness and cold? The Lord of the harvest, He knoweth Who knoweth the first and the last: The Sower Who patiently soweth, He scanneth the present and past: He saith, "What thou hast, what remaineth, hold fast." Yet, Lord, o'er Thy toil-wearied weepers The storm-clouds hang muttering and frown: On threshers and gleaners and reapers, O Lord of the harvest, look down; Oh for the harvest, the shout, and the crown! "Not so," saith the Lord of the reapers, The Lord of the first and the last: "O My toilers, My weary, My weepers, What ye have, what remaineth, hold fast. Hide in My heart till the vengeance be past."

Until The Day Break
.. You whom I could not save Listen to me.   Try to understand this simple speech as I would be ashamed of another.   I swear, there is in me no wizardry of words.   I speak to you with silence like a cloud or a tree. What strengthened me, for you was lethal.   You mixed up farewell to an epoch with the beginning of a new one,   Inspiration of hatred with lyrical beauty;   Blind force with accomplished shape. Here is a valley of shallow Polish rivers. And an immense bridge   Going into white fog. Here is a broken city;   And the wind throws the screams of gulls on your grave   When I am talking with you. What is poetry which does not save   Nations or people?   A connivance with official lies,   A song of drunkards whose throats will be cut in a moment,   Readings for sophomore girls. That I wanted good poetry without knowing it,   That I discovered, late, its salutary aim,   In this and only this I find salvation. They used to pour millet on graves or poppy seeds   To feed the dead who would come disguised as birds.   I put this book here for you, who once lived   So that you should visit us no more.   Warsaw, 1945 - by Czeslaw Milosz st, 13 dec 13

Dedication - by Czeslaw Milosz
Mading relieves Manute from guard duty. They share a meagre meal of millet porridge before Manute returns to the refugee nation of southern Sudan. The noon sun is a harsh sentence for a parched tongue but they talk not of coffee or juice-laden fruit and rice and lentils are mountain memories their stomachs can ill afford. Instead they curse the clear skies that rain only strafing jets and pray for their dry-breasted wives on pilgrimage to the aid station carrying children swollen with the promise of death. They snarl rumours about al-Bashir’s lapdogs in Khartoum growing fat on food intended for them. Jason waits, informed by cell phone of Laurie's imminent arrival. He orders a wheat beer, its earth tone inviting on a silver tray and its musky sweetness washing away a morning of phone business. The noon sun is a warm blessing through the picture window but they talk not of haloed hills or the light-laden river and recession and retrenchment are market memories their ulcers can ill afford. Instead they debate '63 cabernet versus '74 chablis and moan about their reconstructed wives driving halfway across town carrying children swollen with the promise of private schooling. They snarl rumours about Key's cabinet in Wellington while wolfing crayfish and Steak Diane.

LET'S DO LUNCH
Merhaba ey parlak şehir! Bu vakitte yalnız meydan, Görünmüyor ki bir insan, Sokaklar kurumuş nehir. Yalnız deniz yeli gelir, Kuşlar geçer zaman zaman, Millet kafede mi bu an? Bu şehir ve Mevlam bilir. Ne o aşıkları gördüm, Nede ışıkları gördüm, Bir serin boşluk sadece. Lakin bu ortam rahattı, Erkendi şehrin saati, Bu da bazen kardır gece.

Parlak Şehir (with an English translation)
Sunset whispers to itself ~No time outlives time~ The meltemi winds crackle the wild millet, Graze-feed upon the stalks of Greek plains, The pelican scoops up the honeyed Aegean, Waves of sunlit anise and almond in refrain, Vestigial as the sweet persimmon from Egypt, The hammered warmth from the flat anvil of Africa, Sunset whispers to itself ~No time outlives time~

Sunset Whispers to Itself
*I want to trend Not in modern but in the good ancient my friend I want a candle; candles up an earthen chandelier I'm tired of the tick tack of the modern switch I want the moon and stars like life was earlier I'm done with bulbs which when old start to twitch I want a type writer to capture what I write in my book I'm tired of computers where all I do's Facebook I want to revert to the quiet life of my ancestors I want the warmth of watching the stars I want to eat beef steamed in Earthenware Beef with the touch of smoke and of love and care I'm tired of the modern meat whose source is never clear I want a meal served hot on her knees complemented by millet beer I want a home, a real home with an artful grass thatched house A traditional home with a hound for me and a cat in case of any Mouse I'm fed up of the modern roofs which roast as if we're pork I want an affair that's free of silly social media talk I want a place she and I can have peaceful evening walks And her eyes not having to watch out for cars I want someone simple enough to pride in her scars Open and proud of her weaknesses,one laughter sincerely chokes I want someone whose thighs will be warm hidden Someone who won't dare do the forbidden Not one who'll go at dusk and return at dawn I want not a queen for that will make me her pawn Someone who'll give me a massage,not send me to the parlors One who's content and natural, not painted in colors Who’ll together with me do laundry, not a laundry machine I want someone who'll be contented with the little beard on my chin I want a life like that of my grand father Small family, moderate success, a wife who isn't a bother I want a simple life that will give even my enemies peace I want Africa; I want a bit of my heritage, just a piece I want that life frozen in sphinx and sculpture I want to busk in the glory of African culture*

The first is the dream of angelic beauty on the wings of freedom descended from heaven, the hair of its color is millet, the skin is golden in skin color, the eyes shine with a blue and gentle face that amazes with innocent beauty. A truly graceful lioness is like a priceless gift of the sun born of light illuminating the globe. The second shines with moonlight hair like a night illuminated by star splendor, silvery predatory gaze concealing in itself a mysterious charming force and a ball. She is like a night of uncontrollable desires and temptations. She is your sweet secret dreams, she is an alluring seduction. Her beauty hypnotizes and subjugates to its wild will. As if a wild panther is looking at you and you can hear her passion and bellow her passionately and it seems nothing exists except her. The third skin with freckles is like milk, it is expressive as its blood, red as ruby, and green as the leaves of the eyes, it strikes everyone with its epicly beautiful beauty. Three sisters whose beauty is a whole love poem that knows no end or edge. Author: Musin Almat Zhumabekovich

Vanilla skin
In the sea of aged descension, debauchery of tortoises and sea horses, afloat bottoms up. With fleeting corals, wilted they wane, a familiar millet stops by. Seeping ashes I breathe in, treacherous flames I shan’t squelch, left nothing but void to differ the abyss from an unfathomable surface. Tidal deluge washes away. Deprive me of thy momentum, for I no longer swim.

Hourglass of Souls
It is pleasant and tasty. It is bright and cheerful, The children are blameless. for the reason that they drink it. Because their world is virtuous, Ever since it was green and polite, It is bright and blue. So, the morning is flawless. For sure, today's weather is good. because the children are drinking "Koko." And they eat so copiously of Kosai, Their mouths feel the sweetest, Their ears stood up straight. Their bodies are boogying, They dance well, twirling. Because of the tasty taste of Koko, And this was boiled so freshly, In Safana's Poetry Kitchen, For children, drink it hot. It is really good. It is really tasty. Children, remember spring, The millet is harvested. Children, remember summer, The corn is harvested. Go to the farm and cut the crop. It is a good thing in the morning, for grannies to mix a porridge A corn and millet porridge and is an aroma in a pleasant atmosphere. Children, let's dance and dance, Because Koko is delicious, And Kosai is also delicious.

Koko
La prudence est bonne de soi, Mais la pousser trop **** est une duperie : L'exemple suivant en fait foi. Des moineaux habitaient dans une métairie : Un beau champ de millet, voisin de la maison, Leur donnait du grain à foison. Ces moineaux dans le champ passaient toute leur vie, Occupés de gruger les épis de millet Le vieux chat du logis les guettait d'ordinaire, Tournait et retournait ; mais il avait beau faire, Sitôt qu'il paraissait la bande s'envolait. Comment les attraper ? Notre vieux chat y songe, Médite, fouille en son cerveau, Et trouve un tour tout neuf. II va tremper dans l'eau Sa patte dont il fait éponge. Dans du millet en grain aussitôt il la plonge ; Le grain s'attache tout autour. Alors à cloche-pied, sans bruit, par un détour, II va gagner le champ, s'y couche La patte en l'air et sur le dos, Ne bougeant non plus qu'une souche : Sa patte ressemblait à l'épi le plus gros. L'oiseau s'y méprenait, il approchait sans crainte, Venait pour becqueter ; de l'autre patte, crac, Voilà mon oiseau dans le sac. Il en prit vingt par cette feinte. Un moineau s'aperçoit du piège scélérat, Et prudemment fuit la machine ; Mais dès ce jour il s'imagine Que chaque épi de grain était patte de chat. Au fond de son trou solitaire II se retire, et plus n'en sort, Supporte la faim, la misère, Et meurt pour éviter la mort.

Le chat et le moineau
O Kypris and Nereids, undamaged I pray you grant my brother to arrive here. And all that in his heart he wants to be, make it be. And all the wrongs he did before, loose it. Make him a joy to his friends, a pain to his enemies and let there exist for us not one single further sorrow. May he willingly give his sister her portion of honor, but sad pain [ always an astounding action ]grieving for the past [ breakneck, breath-taking ] [ calling, crying. Can't. A ] millet seed [ Disheartening downpour drenches. ] Once again no [ Enclosed eyes evident, ears extended ] [ Fatally flawed ] [ Groaning ground grows grey ]but you Kypris [ Hell-bent, heavy, hopelessly hurricaning ] setting aside evil [Insubordinately incoherent] [ Just jolly ]

Memory takes me back to long ago. I can see the deck of the slave ship I came on, smell the salt air and the hot vinegar used to clean away the escaping stench below the deck, hear the sound as male slaves exercise, as crew members play fiddle music while chains thud hard from the dancing amusement of the slaves. My home was near the River Senegal on the coast. The slave traders ships brought colered cloth, beads, *** and cowrie shells to trade for our black flesh. Father raised cattle, rice and maize. This ebony man traded muskets, gunpowder, needles and colored thread, for what he grew. On the day of our capture, we marched during the long day tied to each other, given only thin meal and warm water. Tiredness bore down on our limbs each step. Canoes came on waves toward us. Fear moved down the chained line of men. Women and children were separated. Our clothes were taken. Standing naked, mouths were opened, and muscles felt. We had to jump up and down while moving our arms. Chosen ones were branded on the skin. I screamed loudly until my voice refuse sound. The time for hearing is gone. Rapid waters filled with blood, as some are tossed into the sea, for circling sharks to dine on. The ship offers only sixteen inches to hold me, others have two and half inches if tightly packed. Bodies are in the hold, secured down by chains that are nailed. Faint cries of agony beat on my ears like drums. I try not to breath in the rancid smells of those who have soiled themselves. Air is limited. Mutiny usually takes place within the shoreline. Because when at sea chances are less to escape. Slaves who simply refuse to eat are force fed with the speculum oris which is placed in the slave's mouth, opening the jaws then food is pushed in usually rice or millet. Crew members tried wash away stench of blood from floggings, feces, ***** from between decks until this day the stench still remains. Living as a slave while your soul is dead is a living horror.

The maniac , manic depressive walking city streets , world inverted , diving head first into the blue separation where night verses day , darkness at war with the light of the world . Gray day inversions , deprivations , tainted perception , misconception and miscalculations .. Bright eyes remit their focus ! The child loses his way . Incapacitated . Confused . Yet intent , focused on the garden of good and bad , temptation , righteousness ! Sexuality . Lasciviousness . Piety surrounded by Lucifers minions ! Crocodiles await the migration of wildebeest , rainbow trout tread turbid water for their afternoon meal , mourning dove to field of millet ! Bewildered sweet spirit reduced to crying in supplication , misunderstood , longing for the path by the light ! Traversing mean streets like the rat , the security of a structure to one side , on a high state of alert ! Pawn of the citizenry , cardboard empire and the bottom feeders . Catfish pawning for dung , corruption amidst the sea of inequity . Images flying point blank , a thousand miles an hour ! Shoot him dead ! Continue killing him long after his last breath . Send him back to the blue , where Angels await !

Taser . Shoot to **** . Off to the Next One
To stair step the terraced fields of my youth ... Privy to foraging Bobwhite quail and feeding Dove , Trails revisiting fields of millet , peanut and sorghum , dug wells and rugged , white washed cowsheds .. Shamrock fields meeting the dusky , azure afternoon .. The brisk shadow of redundant porch fans , overwhelmed by July's onslaught .. The welcome relief at dusk , courtesy of sweet tea and 'brittle' ..

Heard County Memory
I want to go right.. Oh, there's no sight. I want to go left.. But there was once the terrible theft. I want to go straight.. No, for that long, I cannot wait. I want to go back.. However, there everything is black. So where do I go? Up and down, to and fro! So goes in my head the commotion, when will my life get the promotion. Lord! Show me your guiding light, give me courage to win this fight. I want to overcome this turbulence, I want to erase every grievance. I want love to encircle me, I'll remove the hatred that surrounds for free. To have a happy life, is all I ask for, peace is the motto, be it love or war. I have high aims like all, save me the hit of the wrecking ball. So many emotions fill me right now, life is such a game, in good or bad way makes you exclaim a wow! I want to speak it all out, Yes, I want my heart, out loud to shout. But then a fear overshadows my talk, there I prefer through the back door to walk. I know it might not t be the right thing to do, but another step of mine will make me a boo. I am not so strong to face what comes, the anxiety in my throat is forming up lumps. Should I keep it all within? Away from eyes, forever hidden? That shall push me to continue to live this way, life won't be black or white, but grey. Confusion will rise every morning, without giving me any warning. Sadness would be the darkness in night, No, this doesn't feel so right. I want to be happy, too much to ask? Because I failed in what you gave me as a task? Don't you realize, that is not who I am, Though I do respect you, sir and ma'am. But I want to be the way I am born, What in it is wrong? To bring you a smile, I should sell my soul? And if I refuse, you'll make me live in that dark hole? Why, today I ask. What have I done? That on my heart, you point that gun. To live life the way I want I say, so get yours and don't rule mine, okay? Today I am quiet, why I don't know, but I promise tomorrow I will glow. My light would make you blind, even then my love will keep you bind. Because I loved you truly, every minute, for everything from big to as small as a particle of millet. You should know, nothing can stop me from reaching the top, no matter you push me down at every hop. I won't get disheartened from any of this, because whatever life has to offer is a bliss. I won't let this destroy my goal, or burn in my pocket a **** hole. I will win, I know in my heart, doesn't matter how much you try to be smart. Yes, this is for all you people out there, with black, grey, white or no hair. Nothing in this world can slower down my pace, To my loved ones, I am already a grace!

ESCAPE- Feel your heartbeat!
I want to go right.. Oh, there's no sight. I want to go left.. But there was once the terrible theft. I want to go straight.. No, for that long, I cannot wait. I want to go back.. However, there everything is black. So where do I go? Up and down, to and fro! So goes in my head the commotion, when will my life get the promotion. Lord! Show me your guiding light, give me courage to win this fight. I want to overcome this turbulence, I want to erase every grievance. I want love to encircle me, I'll remove the hatred that surrounds for free. To have a happy life, is all I ask for, peace is the motto, be it love or war. I have high aims like all, save me the hit of the wrecking ball. So many emotions fill me right now, life is such a game, in good or bad way makes you exclaim a wow! I want to speak it all out, Yes, I want my heart, out loud to shout. But then a fear overshadows my talk, there I prefer through the back door to walk. I know it might not t be the right thing to do, but another step of mine will make me a boo. I am not so strong to face what comes, the anxiety in my throat is forming up lumps. Should I keep it all within? Away from eyes, forever hidden? That shall push me to continue to live this way, life won't be black or white, but grey. Confusion will rise every morning, without giving me any warning. Sadness would be the darkness in night, No, this doesn't feel so right. I want to be happy, too much to ask? Because I failed in what you gave me as a task? Don't you realize, that is not who I am, Though I do respect you, sir and ma'am. But I want to be the way I am born, What in it is wrong? To bring you a smile, I should sell my soul? And if I refuse, you'll make me live in that dark hole? Why, today I ask. What have I done? That on my heart, you point that gun. To live life the way I want I say, so get yours and don't rule mine, okay? Today I am quiet, why I don't know, but I promise tomorrow I will glow. My light would make you blind, even then my love will keep you bind. Because I loved you truly, every minute, for everything from big to as small as a particle of millet. You should know, nothing can stop me from reaching the top, no matter you push me down at every hop. I won't get disheartened from any of this, because whatever life has to offer is a bliss. I won't let this destroy my goal, or burn in my pocket a **** hole. I will win, I know in my heart, doesn't matter how much you try to be smart.

Millet
*Morning birds sing the praises of Dawn in the confectionery forest of home Red-Tip hedges bustle with Springlike description , Mother Jay cackle and Eastern Gray playful volition Simple shaded homes bursting with the wonders of rebirth , sunshine canopies appear as visions to Heaven , Red Fox banter in the Sorghum plat lowland , sprite Doves working fields of Millet and Sunflower , Magpie guards , tickled and curt Hunter Bluebirds falling to earth for grasshoppers , back to the "Crows Nest" in their continual search*

Hill Country / Seven in the morning ..
The hole inside myself is perfect, so perfectly God shaped. Dusting pain of darkness - of heart topped millet cake.
