To raise humble kid is my priority. I can Make my CHILD learn - By preaching By teaching By giving Knowledge of Sharing Caring Loving But... She will not learn by preaching!! Rather She will learn By my ACTIONS..!! If I don't Share MY things With My Friends Neighbours Siblings Cousins She will learn NOTHING..! *I can make her learn to share. By making her give - Clothes to needy Toys in orphanage Candies to the deprived. * But by GIVING she will just learn to be PROUD Rather If she learns by seeing me SHARING She will become HUMBLE..!! To raise a humble kid is my priority..!! Sparkle In Wisdom 11 Jan 2019

Humble Kid
- crack another thermometer open on the broken bathroom sink, pour yourself into me like mercury and pan the bed of my stomach for multitudes of gold flecks like however many myriads of sickly pill bottles in your dresser drawer of socks. - see all the shredded speckled petals i ripped up before i'd let the deer get to them; i'm colorblind, and i can't tell the sun's reflection from plastic, or tulips from the broken pottery outside my front door. - and far least from another beer, and another fifth of whatever could be fit under your shirt - and never a chair pulled up to speak, from standing like a soapbox more suited to cleaning than to preaching. - pour yourself into me like mercury, because it's so much easier when my veins weigh me down to distraction, than being able to think of hydrangeas again. -

Health teacher blindly reading off the slides of a powerpoint. "Don't Have *** Kids!" "Pregnancy" "STD's" "Abstinence" Perhaps if they took a break from the negativity. Perhaps if they stood back and realized that gasp preaching abstinence isn't the solution. The only reason for the "Pregnancy" "STD's" is that they don't teach us how to practice *** safely. They make no mention of Condoms Diaphragms Pills They tell you over and over again that if you have *** there will be children there will be *** there will be ****** They make no mention of anything other than the cis straight white vanilla *** they leave the ******** off of all the diagrams of vaginas out of fear that maybe a woman could gasp ****** Preposterous! They preach victim blaming. They tell the girls to stay sober to never put your drink down long pants turtlenecks Instead of teaching the boys to keep their erections in their pants. to treat women like humans that no means no she is not an object she did not "deserve it" she didn't owe you anything. Ignorance isn't bliss and Abstinence isn't safety.

Abstinence
I want to crawl in your mind. Find the real rythm behind the melody of your heartbeat. Show you Gods given freedom out of verbal prison walls. To make you fall in your spiritual calling. Vision Preaching your emotions by reaching the back of your tongue You hide your insecurities among your heavenly eyes. The heaviness of your tongue is beauty to me. Let me set you free. Freedom Travel me to your secrets. Let me loose between your memories. I will not abuse your confidence but regularly choose to unite us in consequences. Let me visit your fears. Explore Let me dissolve your assumptions and reason your doubts. Evolve out of the abundance of my soul. I will slowly, surely travel myself deeper, deeply to discover the source of your sincere existence. Promise Patience Love

An expedition to your sincere existence
Ask me who is the most generous man I know and I shall speak his name Ask me who is the most humble man I know and him I shall acclaim Ask me who is the most altruistic man I know and his face shall be on the frame Ask me who is the most kindhearted man I know and you will hear his name again In my life, I've never met anyone like him again A man devoted to his family and his community Always preaching the word of God and leading us to felicity Always ready to sacrifice his needs for the sake of love and unity He taught us family, love, fraternity, forgiveness, religion, compassion, tolerance, peace and generosity I am who I am today thanks to his teachings He was a leader, a guide, our role model There is no one like him He was a father, a brother, a friend, a companion, a grandfather 16 years since he is gone but his words still resonate like thunder You are no longer here but your teachings linger A man who was not afraid to cry when needs be but also not afraid to yell and impose order Always playful with kids and receptive and caring with adults I feel privileged and lucky to have known him and call him grandpa For in my life he has played a huge and special part The memories I will treasure and keep them in my heart Although he is gone, we will always be together And his spirit will live on in each one of us forever From where he is, he is protecting us and guiding us on our way He is praying for us everyday He used to pray God "Let it be I who fall sick instead of one of my family member. Let it be I who die instead of someone in my family." What kind of man wishes for that, you ask. Someone special I will say, a man of love And I would like to thank God above For blessing us with this man, with his kindness and love I truly believe that God has gifted him with something special He taught us not to let this world be in our heart for it is not eternal I know he is in a better place Watching us all with a smile on his face I hope we are making you proud from where you are We are still crying an ocean of tears As we feel so empty and hold many fears If I could just turn back the time to those days you used to laugh with us and made us feel so special and loved Those days you pretended to be in pain when we stepped on your feet while we were playing Those days when they were only you and us in the room with your half covered grey and curled hair Those days we used to watch tv together and whenever there was an intimate scene you screamed your favorite word "Touc" and scared us (not that I know what it means) Time will heal so they say And time fades away While a part of us is taken away I know we will meet again one day But until that day Know that you are truly missed Mame Alassane Lahi whom we affectionately called Mame Rane

We are so close, but not just by physical touch; I can feel you the way I feel my cheeks warm up, after you have said something that inevitably causes me to blush. Its as though our souls are connecting on the same frequency radiating off the core of this Earth. This pleasure is unnoticed by most, but we can feel it like we feel the blood dripping down our thighs on a substandard night. Before we started talking, so many years ago, I never believed in true love or really love at all. I always assumed it was just all in the head, and two people could only connect to a point, unless you were related to each other. After the first year and a half or so of talking to you regularly, you proved me wrong. You proved what I grew up believing for 16 to 17 years was completely false. For if I had never met you, to this day, I more than likely would of continued preaching to myself, that everyone else who has experienced this feeling called 'love' was insane. Life without you would of still been bearable, but only because I would still be lost in ignorance. I am more than grateful you walked out of your way to meet up with me that night three summers ago. I owe you so much, and will cherish every moment I'm blessed with standing by your side. I'll make it a point to provide a nurturing life for you, one worth living for. You are my world, my inspiration, the main reason I look forward to waking up, or falling asleep cuddled in your lovely arms. I cannot wait to see you later today and hug you, while my heart races with satisfaction like the first time you put your arm around me. This is more than just some fairy-tale, this is still the beginning steps of our long journey together. So we mustn't give up when things go south, for if we do, it will be the undoing of what our relationship has always been about. You truly are my best friend, the one person who'll never let me fall if you know you are capable of preventing it, even if i don't want your help at all.  I appreciate that, even when my words or actions do not acknowledge it. You truly are the only reason i was able to climb out of that dark lonely tunnel of agonizing depression; for everyone else either dragged me father down or walked out. You are my life saver, my sweet guardian angel. I love you, my dearest, Chris, forever and always.

This is a tribute. A goodbye letter, whatever you wanna call it. A thank you, I guess. Thankyou for saving me. Thank you for keeping me. Thank you for watching over me and teaching me and preaching to me and thankyou, thankyou, thankyou for making me see that I was gifted with a life. This is for you. Everything I do, everything I write, everything I say, is for you. One month ago tomorrow, you died. One month ago tomorrow, I checked my email expecting to find some spam mail and a few notifications about something I didn't really care about, maybe even a reply from that person I emailed a while ago. One month ago tomorrow, I checked my email and found an email from your mom saying that you were so sorry, so so sorry, but that you had passed. One month ago tomorrow, I collapsed on the floor and mourned for the loss of my best friend, my soul mate. One month ago the day after tomorrow, I walked into school and I kept my cool but I saw you there in front of me. I could put you there and I could see you and I could hear you and you haunted me and my friends all said "You're different." That day, I had an anxiety attack and went home because I COULDN'T handle it. Tomorrow, I will walk into school and I will keep my cool but inside I will be dying and sobbing and weeping and mourning for the loss of you. Tomorrow, I will sit in the same place I did one month ago the day after tomorrow and stare into nothing and see you and hear you and smell you and my friends will say "you're different". Tomorrow, I might have an anxiety attack. I might go home but I will try not to. I CAN handle it. When we first met, you told me your worst fear was that you were afraid to die. 3 months ago, you slit your wrists and by the time you realised what you were doing and sane enough to stop you tried to save yourself. You succeeded. You got better. 1 month ago tomorrow, you died of natural causes. We were supposed to become psychologists together and go to New York and study at the same university and open a private practice, where did that end up at? Goodbye, and thank you, and I'm sorry I didn't say I love you enough, and I'm sorry I didn't take more pictures, and I'm sorry I didn't say what I wanted to say, and I'm sorry we fought, and I'm sorry we wasted so much time planning for a tomorrow we were never going to have.

In this poem, I speak directly to you-know-who-because-it's-you. Dear old friend, don't miss me ever, If I had some genuine value in your life, Now I add the element of request, please, You know that most of my poems are for you, Whether normal or proposing you to be my wife, Please do not spoil your career being busy in vain, The social network & apps are a total waste of time. The social network is not a place for social service, It is only so harmful for your own career prospects. This is just my last request to you, Kripiji. I know you are upset with this preaching, But please take the positivity from this post.

They will tell you there is a right way. They will hand you a torch and call it the sun. They will roll their words in raw linen and whisper: "This is what poetry is meant to be." And you will nod. Because they have made it so that not nodding feels like blasphemy. But listen— the ink does not check your credentials. The meter does not ask if your suffering is organic. A line does not collapse because it was crafted instead of bled. They will tell you a poem must be naked, barefoot, aching— as if there is no beauty in a well-cut suit. They will decry the temple and build a pulpit in its ruins, preaching freedom in a voice that allows no dissent. Good poets are cult leaders, and the first rule of the cult is that they are not one. So write the sonnet, carve the sestina, sculpt the page in iambic steel. Or break it, shatter it, scatter its bones— but let no one call your wreckage untrue. And if they do, smile. Because poetry does not kneel to priests.

Good Poets Are Cult Leaders
Social Media World Waiting, longing, wanting Never finished, never complete Silence makes our ears ring Always busy, looking to compete Social media world Everyone and no one Never alone, your life is unfurled, Tap, swipe, post, I’m done.. Never done, never finished Your social media masterpiece Do we leave ourselves diminished? Even though we constantly increase ... Increase and build, our profiles grow, Piece by piece an ever changing image So fast, so rapid, makes me want to go slow In my mind I pretend and try to envisage And yet I’m entirely torn A hypocrite through and through My very own image I’ll adorn My eyes, my mouth and what about this hairdo? I love it and I question it, I label myself, but why? Basic, white, “this is lit” I’ve found that social media high Parents worry, kids rebel, Are they happy !? Perhaps time will tell For me, it’s the content that’s ****** Stop seeking happiness, It’s not an end game Stop talking mindfulness Whilst putting others to shame Let’s stop talking the talk Preaching and self indulging Watching and waiting like a hawk, A lifetime wasted, wishing But embrace the conversations! Open dialogue; debating, discussing, Thoughts, ideas and revelations, Platforms for all, we could do anything!

Social Media World
Someday I'd like to wander free like butterfly, like bumblebee, perhaps to plant a willow tree beside the silent solemn sea, before these things exist no more, from mountain top to shifting shore, when, soon, bald eagles cease to soar and build their aeries nevermore, and fish forsake polluted streams (where sulfur swims and typhoid teems since no one really cares it seems) to die inside our toxic dreams while ice caps melt and winter steams, and all the air surrounding reeks as children choke, for no one speaks of fracking wells or oily leaks (Big Brother's silenced all critiques!), and rancid rains acidify so woods no longer multiply (for God so wills, we can't deny, which is, of course, our alibi). And as the deepest ocean fills with plastic bags, and garbage spills upon the plains, across the hills and turns to poison dust that kills wild dingo dogs and daffodils which sink in swamps’ forsaken swills, the mocking bird makes light and trills (midst waning wails of whippoorwills) "Behold the surreal scene that chills and greet the dread that death distills! You've had your day with all the frills that brought the flood and final ills that can't be cured with bitter pills nor yet undone with further thrills of profit gained that grinds and fills dead desert sands with dollar bills." EPILOGUE Though swaddled still in infancy, we feel we’ve reached our primacy (aloof, though preaching piously, disdaining deeds of decency) and have no need of augury. But in the pit of prophecy the crucial questions seem to be: “Is doom Earth’s fate, our destiny to twist in tides of agony destroying nature’s progeny with no return a certainty assured by death’s finality?” and ”Should we plant a willow tree to someday weep for you and me?”

after centuries and centuries and centuries of: pain and suffering, chains and ankle cuffing, segregation and impossible laws, human degredation and deaths for the cause, coloured lines and last picks, work in the mines and barbie-like wigs, culture termination and the education of self-hate, fake freedom motivation and penitentiary execution dates, community sabatoge and destruction of black owned schemes, settle down for hip hop dialogue and basketball dreams racial slurs and monkey metaphors, television blurs and the world shutting doors, the white man's drugs and melanin filled prisons, talent that lacks funds and vietnam missions, death of our black icons and imprisonment of mandela death of trayvon and others on the death list which could go on forever... do you have the right to tell "bottom barrels" not to dream to be on the top? do you wonder why forgiveness is slowly yielding in the world, as if it sees a sign that says it's time to stop? do they not say we must practice what we preach? are they not preaching hate? are they not preaching inequality? are they not preaching the false levels of life? is it too hard for the world to practice equality? is it too hard for the world to live in harmony? is it too hard for the world to see the similarities in our differences? is it too hard for the world to live without fear of colours? is it too much to ask for peace??? - t.m

my heart bleeds a cold spiteful colour that seems hopeless
We are embodied and entrusted with the word To keep preaching until every voice is heard To not keep it in but let the world know About the lamp at our feet which continues to glow Help all the needy and make there day bright Lead them out of the darkness and into the light Show them a way that is supposed to be bold That a soul is to be treasured and not to be sold We cast out demons and rebuke evil spirits In the name of Jesus we are not gonna fear it Walking tall carrying a double edged sword Bringing all into unity and on one accord We will make over comers out of underachievers And to all the doubters we will make them believers It starts with a vision and a plan to succeed And into mans heart we shall sow our creed In the name of Jesus is all that we ask Just give us the strength to carry out this task

The Great Commission
I shall never judge others for looks nor wealth. We should teach others to not judge other in the wrong way. We should... ...dance like no one is watching... ...sing like you're preaching to the heavens... ...treat one another as you treat thy self... ...see beyond their skin and clothes... ...only judge what's on the inside, not out.

Revolution: Part one. The first French King sentenced to death, Must have a new execution invented; So that this day shall be forever remembered. The execution of your King, this invention of evil; This is how he will finally meet his end and go to the Devil. The man behind the mask, the executioner; Will lead us to change to a new world order. A declaration of civil war, to stop the oppression, Has lead France to say, we must fight to stop the aggression. We must be revolting and begin the revolution; To put an end to the executions. The fall of the guillotine, for a life time spent, Writing the encyclopedia, which lead to his death. There is no place for God, in an encyclopedia of Man; This writing is illegal, you are blasphemous! God **** So the time has come, to take your last breath. Remember when you see the guillotine... don't lose your head. Until it's chopped off and ends up in the basket; Another case of basket case madness. No fiction necessary, for us to live here on Earth; But this execution, you surely don't deserve. So the poets leave France, before the revolution; All of them heading, back to England. These prison bars to entrap the young. Taken prisoner for writing a book. Follow their rules; free thinking is wrong. The encyclopedia is evidence enough. Man is born free and grows to imprison himself; Then he must follow the orders, of somebody else. Frances revolutionaries, said let it be, let it be; But the nation is ruled, by the monarchy. Imprisoned for what they think, the poets and the artists; But there are no walls, in the prison inside their heads. Begin the revolution and make us all classless, Because they’re chained by society, For the thoughts that they think. A fight for equality, a modern day philosophy. Man is born to think for himself; a revolution is on the way. Liberty! Liberation for one free state; A jaded nation must make a change. Revolution began, after the fall of the blade; Now the guillotine of power will stop us being slaves. Preaching revolution, we must free ourselves of these manacles. Preaching liberation for the masses And freedom for the individual. This new guillotine, the machine of death, Makes the severed head fall into the basket, As they take your last breath; But they can't take your words, from the books you have written. So fight the power! Revolution! Revolution! We must have a revolution, that is televised. Che Guevara, Malcolm X, me, myself and I. All of us willing to join the fight; All of knowing our view is right. (C)2013 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.

Revolution : Part one
Revolution: Part one. The first French King sentenced to death, Must have a new execution invented; So that this day shall be forever remembered. The execution of your King, this invention of evil; This is how he will finally meet his end and go to the Devil. The man behind the mask, the executioner; Will lead us to change to a new world order. A declaration of civil war, to stop the oppression, Has lead France to say, we must fight to stop the aggression. We must be revolting and begin the revolution; To put an end to the executions. The fall of the guillotine, for a life time spent, Writing the encyclopedia, which lead to his death. There is no place for God, in an encyclopedia of Man; This writing is illegal, you are blasphemous! God **** So the time has come, to take your last breath. Remember when you see the guillotine... don't lose your head. Until it's chopped off and ends up in the basket; Another case of basket case madness. No fiction necessary, for us to live here on Earth; But this execution, you surely don't deserve. So the poets leave France, before the revolution; All of them heading, back to England. These prison bars to entrap the young. Taken prisoner for writing a book. Follow their rules; free thinking is wrong. The encyclopedia is evidence enough. Man is born free and grows to imprison himself; Then he must follow the orders, of somebody else. Frances revolutionaries, said let it be, let it be; But the nation is ruled, by the monarchy. Imprisoned for what they think, the poets and the artists; But there are no walls, in the prison inside their heads. Begin the revolution and make us all classless, Because they’re chained by society, For the thoughts that they think. A fight for equality, a modern day philosophy. Man is born to think for himself; a revolution is on the way. Liberty! Liberation for one free state; A jaded nation must make a change. Revolution began, after the fall of the blade; Now the guillotine of power will stop us being slaves. Preaching revolution, we must free ourselves of these manacles. Preaching liberation for the masses And freedom for the individual. This new guillotine, the machine of death, Makes the severed head fall into the basket, As they take your last breath; But they can't take your words, from the books you have written. So fight the power! Revolution! Revolution! We must have a revolution, that is televised. Che Guevara, Malcolm X, me, myself and I.

Your a wraith, a ghost dedicated to a dying faith, like a mistake, you used life for your needs and gave only to take, as a friend you offered lessons in hate but reeked of an essence that only you could create, ignorance, selfish religious babble for instance, attacking the ideals of others with a dagger between your teeth while preaching against the dangers of he who lies beneath, dont confuse evil for pain, try to experience pleasure from the searing rain that hisses off your hatred, if you can't then I'm sorry my friend, but you've already gone insane

Ignorance
Soft wooden pews and the white dogwood tree, Arched ceilings and Mother’s whisper Tetelestai Making surprise harmonies with the sinner beside me. Black preaching robes saying Grace is for free, Now pass the gold plate so the Church can supply, Soft wooden pews and the white dogwood tree. Regenerated through love-on this we agree, Shouting Hymn 22 children’s voices blend high, Making surprise harmonies with the sinner beside me. Drunkards and Deacons with Thou and with Thee, Starched shirts and white pearls all standing by, Soft wooden pews and the white dogwood tree. Released from all of our chafe and debris, With roars of repentance and relief we reply, Making surprise harmonies with the sinner beside me. I am whole I am new through His ministry, I know I can never this truth deny. Soft wooden pews and the white dogwood tree. Making surprise harmonies with the sinner beside me.

I cradle hurricanes in my ribcage while words swirl around my head. I try to catch the good ones- but mostly, I wish I was dead. I do everything too much- the joy, the sorrow, the dread. Yet somehow, I’m never enough- what a curious truth to be force fed. If I laugh, it’s always too loud; my mouth too sharp to make anyone proud. Crying is a dangerous game, I could sob away a city, drown in the blame. My rage leaves no survivors, as if I line people up on personal pyres. When I vent, they hear preaching- a sermon no one wants, a fear of my leeching. I don’t love, I dissect- obsessively search for the trap I expect. I can’t just leave; I burn it all down- the bubbly, funny girl wears a permanent frown. I do too much and my inner child feels seen, She's acting out, we aren't this mean I just get scared when the vibe is off, and ruining the mood makes the blow more soft. Despite the chaos I still crave love, an equal partner, wearing fireproof gloves.

Tornado Watch
The silver fog slithers around my ankles, slowly winding up my legs with a serpent's silk move. Squeezing her fingers, my mother and I approach the barn-red house. It breathes heavily and its exhale reveals a backyard cemetery. As the mist settles, a limestone hand reaches out to ****** her away. Down the street the dollhouse neighbor cannot see me screaming, weeping, I call for help. Brown-green water drips from the bathroom ceiling-- the plumber continues plumbing. Sweat beads form on the tip of the fat priest's nose, as he climbs the broken stairs, he continues preaching. The porcelain girl wears her mother's brown-stained ivory prom dress. Chanting, Sonofabitch. Sonofabitch. They cannot see me-- I flail my limbs. They cannot hear me-- Their own cursing drown out my voice.

The Dollhouse Neighbor
Maybe begging you to stay was the reason it was 5:30 a.m. and you told me I wasn't the one and all of these poems are ******** and have nothing to do with anything that is going on in my head but three months ago I tried to **** myself and you wouldn't answer your phone. when you saw me the next night you told me everyone has bad days. With beer in hand and stagger to your walk I believed you Cause you were right, everyone has bad days, I would never deny anyone of that even my bad days are better than others I have never had my stomach pumped, I have never drank till I have passed out I have never been in a car accident but I have tasted the cold bitter remnants of what love was supposed to be after swallowing one too many pills I have opened my skin in the attempt rid my blood of you I have stained sheet after sheet with what I thought beautiful was, still all I can hear is you preaching that it's just another bad day
