"scourging" poems
#*It's delight which flows without measure from the assurance that through every circumstance and detail of my life God is ever beckoning and drawing me into deeper intimacy with Himself, ever whispering to my heart, “Come closer still.” Joy in the midst of devastating loss, crushing disappointment, unbearable pain or scourging heartache is about the discovery of treasure so precious and rare that it never could have been found had we not been forced to walk a path of affliction in the desert. It's in the isolation and brutality of the wild that we come to know Him in ways that transcend the span of human imagining or desiring, and all the songs and all the poems and all the masterpieces taken together cannot capture an estimable description of the pleasures that might be unearthed there. There lies before us in our afflictions a vast and wondrous beauty yet undisclosed behind the fog, and like a theatrical curtain slowly pulled back to reveal a perfectly set stage He will sublimely unveil it in His own directed time. And we shall be elated at the view, for it's against a backdrop of struggle and darkness that the best and most moving of stories have always unfolded. Maybe nothing truly beautiful can ever take form on earth without the shroud of mystery and brokenness surrounding it— at least not the kind of beauty that takes our breath away and leaves us yearning to possess it.*#

A Brutal Discovery of Joy
Who are these? Why sit they here in twilight? Wherefore rock they, purgatorial shadows, Drooping tongues from jaws that slob their relish, Baring teeth that leer like skulls' teeth wicked? Stroke on stroke of pain, - but what slow panic, Gouged these chasms round their fretted sockets? Ever from their hair and through their hands' palms Misery swelters. Surely we have perished Sleeping, and walk hell; but who these hellish? - These are men whose minds the Dead have ravished. Memory fingers in their hair of murders, Multitudinous murders they once witnessed. Wading sloughs of flesh these helpless wander, Treading blood from lings that had loved laughter. Always they must see these things and hear them, Batter of guns and shatter of flying muscles, Carnage incomparable, and human squander Rucked too thick for these men's extrication. Therefore still their eyeballs shrink tormented Back into their brains, because on their sense Sunlight seems a blood-smear; night comes blood-black; Dawn breaks open like a wound that bleeds afresh. - Thus their heads wear this hilarious, hideous, Awful falseness of set-smiling corpses. - Thus their hands are plucking at each other; Picking at the rope-knouts of their scourging; Snatching after us who smote them, brother, Pawing us who dealt them war and madness.

Drawing upon the core of my being, I muster up the strength to survive. Stepping into another plane of existence; one in which I have no capacity to resist toxicity; I am vulnerable. A juggernaut lies at the end of the daylight hours; soft in temper and yet scourging in it’s pronouncements. This is a being with no malicious intent; a sentinel guarding the sacred caliber of a spirit under divine instruction. Darkness pervades in the form of light; I can sense a façade of purity within the confines of my bones. This fortress that I have traversed into is infected with a murky haze looming just above the skies. Escape is my only option; if I remain here it will be my demise. When the juggernaut arrives, trepidation will electrify my soul; it will animate me. Fear consumes me with every waking second I’m in it’s midst. -This gargantuan being understands- Empathy cannot save me however, once the utterances of ancient spirit inflict scathing wounds upon me in the name of humanity. Attempting to rescue me from the tumult of the planet does not obscure the pain and heartache of compassionate words. Wisdom lies within this walking tome; statue-esque maiden. I have used my discernment as a bulwark; protection from wounds of sensitivity lies in detachment from myself. I have come to realize that supplication does have a purpose. -To plea with the remnants of a long forgotten world- I am overwhelmed with euphoria when I realize that my fears have been nothing but stymie. Fleeting in nature; they whispered to me of my incapacity to reach the heart of a relic growing wiser by the minute. There is no judgment to be passed and I have been emancipated from the shackles of a foreshadowing past. It leads to my genesis; the day when I shall be lifted up past all my iniquity. Until that day, I await the metamorphosis of an ailing planet. The Juggernaut does have a purpose. This maiden shall be a beacon amongst the tumult of the seasons. I shall look to her as a guide and honesty is what shall pervade from her lips. In trueness she shall bestow her utterances upon me. Like the sweetest honey, her words will befall my eardrums. Internalization spurs a chemical reaction within me. I am changing. I have been enveloped by blinding rays of light. The darkness is no match for the spiritual sinew that I possess. I am growing by the second… I am growing prayer by prayer. -Amen- By Iridescently Efflorescent

Bruising,kicking,clubbing, chanting,ranting,yelling, from afar their judgement is pronounced, scourging,ravaging,encompassed, their foes enmassed, as their woes crawles to them. Ensnared in rageous mobbing. No attention given, Brutally abased at fraternities delight, Blood splitting, Blood gushing, sands soaks in blood, as of mud from heavy downpour, fraternities yelling,mobs cheering. As their lynching delights them all. No saviour! No mercy! Woe! Woe! Woe! They rants in accord, from their chamber miserable voices screams. Only but whispers heard, in cold fatique voices. One said i am not guilty! another said we only came to collect what he owed me! Another said i live in heaven where milk and honey flows i lack nothing,i am innocent another said yesterday i paid my tuition,i paid my dues i am innocent. In cold blooded, lynched them all. their hell fire came to them alive they were burnt they were wasted as of unwanted beasts! oh! Aluu what have you done?! Who were those innocent 4 you killed?? Don't you know the pain of mothers labour at birth?! They are not different from you they feel pain! they feel torture! they feel torment! wont you scream if i club you? won't you flee if i burn you fire?! They sought to flee they sought to hide they pled for mercy but you were their miserable nightmares! You were there foes ragging in woes massacre!!! The boys were your children they were your brothers oh! Merciless Aluu!!! What have you done to the futures untold?

Thoughts of the self-spoken Left me wandering; Tangled into the parable visions As we gaze through the celestial eerie. Mirrors from side to side, I still can't see the myself inside. Mazy patterns were confusing my mind. Despicably appropriate, Whereas the heavens of alas contemplate. In this empty vast, We see light from present to past. Scourging sun diminishes darkness Over light in distant visionless. Blinded to see the real vision of the race; To acknowledge the imagery painted to praise. Entire race failed to obey, Garner the intellect of marionettes strings, Puppets of the mischief, Puppeteers of a sheep, The scent of the blood, Descends a ripple from hate. Cast the spell upon yourself, And let the bloodshot eyes tell How it visions the dark world's hell.

Parable Visions
Incendiary asperity: The world's existentiality Agony, the Merciless & Mercenary Scourging me entirely. The Angst of the Aeons Are the pedigree, the genealogy, the history borne to emancipate Me as a Vessel of Sanctity For the valiant souls Are the souls of transcendence, who revere in remembrance The Amour of the Yore My Vestibule Heart Expands, contracts, being consecrated demands just as Starry-Wombed the Cosmos, we Must grow, burgeon through our learning & yearning, deserving & pining for the Promise of Morrow For we were not formed To wallow in sorrow. As I gaze to the heavens O, ***** and Gomorrah I remember The Wife of Lot looks back forever: emblazoned as a Petrified December, Then Fire & Sulphur descended, mankind nearly ended; What is the lesson? Of faith we are descendants. Why do you Roil my ravaged and brutally savaged soul? Must bitterness be the wage for days spent having prayed On my knees, for armistice, by The Empyrean One’s decree? Though I have fallen, I shall rise up For the Fate’s Auric Visage radiates light upon the leaven, Dost ferment the flesh dominating mine spirit. Hearkening to The susurrus of the Sovereign of Songbird’s Sacrosanct Love. Let the Ethereal Tides of Time Bathe me in baptismal & divine tribulation, trial For a writhing while, Sacrality is a war, The Primal Instinct’s Immemorial Diminuendo. Where has fake paradise of the Sylvan Shine Those forested, emerald Eyes That glisten in mine dreams gone? Your visage twas my divine. Though I am forlorn, The Cosmo-Plexus of Empyreal Love hath sworn To the Days of Yore That I shall soar once more. To my Enfettered Soul, Excelsior.

In grandeur of eminence the Sun celebrates her power In the thick forest of the darkest the Moon flourishes in her glory The tidal wave is in tinder of a brand new glory, catching fire of a mad harmattan, refining gold and diamond in the expansive field of a glitzy pearl And transcendence on our way it's roaring of the tidal wave, uprooting dark moons and burying scourging suns in infernal graves! See our warriors surfing on the tidal wave of this season of victorious glory, manifesting us to the world, declaring the glory of the Glory, shooting pearly flames in clouds of glory and power As quotidian stinging tides are being uprooted in routing defeat with eerie eruption of volcano of joy and power in uncommon grandeur. Oh! Alluring sun of glory Oh! Alluring moon of majesty Festooning our sky with power-stars As rain of victory drowning us in splendor! Oh! Tidal wave of beatific season, harvesting us barn-full glory at morning dawn of the victory crow!

TIDAL WAVE
Spikes form from the skin Splitting ends to poke out their eyes Spitting acid to stifle the cries A Shield of bitterness stinging Images seen singing into my memory Dissipate into a mass of spiders, fleas and mosquitoes to spread my disease as fast as possible Hopping, buzzing and crawling slowly... but surely scourging and scouring bearing down every waking hour biting and binding in beds of web infecting and swarming unheeded warnings irritation and sickness, a plague of anger global anguish pain and unhappiness. Nothing left for me. I'll be gone soon With nothing to show but a festering wound. I opened up and everything fell out. Now all I can do is drag my feet through my intestines and feelings As I trudge away in defeat.

Plague. (on the spot poem, apologies if it *****
I'm out here- barely knowing why Thump, ooze, cringe, wince Oh, that's why I'm coming to with drained, unwilling eyes Stipped of all guards with inconsiderate abuse Tied down by angels of nostalgia Without given a second thought, I'm left alone with myself Left defenseless to the wrath of the dark nothing Each icy lash leaves five internally Out here- in the dead of winter, the scourging is barely felt The eternal brand is a thing of beauty How could something so perfect come to be with no effort, no thought? At least it will be over soon, right? This punishment has lasted long enough hasn't it? Why am I where in the first place? ---

Frost's Bite
Don't dismiss her, You don't know her. She is a fierce little ***** Comes out fighting, Sharp and biting. All you see is teeth, All you hear is the scourging scream of a feral female fox, Yet...you don't know... When you're hurting she will gentle as if you are her vulnerable pup. She will tend, and mend, And care for you, Defend you endlessly against all reason, Against her reason, She will defy her own moral code To keep you safe, To show you how deeply and how strongly you are loved. You don't know How she is, You can't know What she is, You will never know How precious she is. Dog that you are, She is not your ***** Don't dismiss her, You don't know her.

Whilst a medley of us lied upon the flocculent canvas An ever so comely sound had been shaped of the void ‘Twas the sharp sound of supremacy coming to pass Though honored am I to speak Upon the sweltering passion ‘Twas an invitation like none before Scourging these bones of the dark Of which they habitually drink The quaking quite mollifyingly Renders a sense of solidarity To unfathomable tribulation

a bird on a wire anxiously tweets outside my Good Friday pane The Carl Vinson battle group plies the China Seas rolling through waves like a deadly Tsunami MOABS plaster mountainsides, commanders are certain the right bomb, for the right job produced a righteous body count Tomahawks strafe another Syrian neighborhood, already desperately choking on the stench of corpses “Crucify Him!” They shout “We want blood!” “Give em a good scourging” Before we place a crown of thorns on his head Let the blood drip pierce him with a pike, let it all spill out The pundits sanctify the sacraments of death with strategic acuity Just another day in a closer walk with Thee, for the Pilgrims of Sorrow Music: Soul Stirrers, Pilgrim of Sorrow Painting: The Road of Sorrows Nina Marchenko Good Friday 2017 Lavallette NJ jbm

a closer walk
Suffocating in this state of mind Like a grain of soil On the wall of a perpetually filling Bottomless pit. All stale and collapsing mud. I can’t breathe And it is dark in here In this silence In this wet and stifling ***** blanket Of thin smiles That veil filth and dirt. Gritty, I can taste discontent ( restlessness stirred, agitated, weeping) Like a thorn in the side Of this torn and invisibly stitched mouth. My fingers bleed And doubt seeds Vicious weeds inside An already sick and nauseated mind. There is hurt in here And pain And the bittersweet unspoken refrain Of one lost in their Own directionless Domain. These walls I built, alone. That stare back careless And greet me daily with their Cold embrace. In this darkness, alone, I, us, we, cry. Small children, Whimpering in this feeling of self chafed friction. Whining, each whine followed by Gutteral, viscous, primal mutterings These madman Me, myself and i Locked in a tunnel Without light It is cold and we want so badly To relight the fire I claw at the fortification I have erected Around myself Then bleed some more Until the walls in front of me turn from la mort noire to rouge de sang Sitting here In this Abyss. Blinded by the inability to see The incapacity to feel Anything but the feeling of failure. This powerlessness to heal, All sealed up and drowning in my private pool of mud. Still it is dark in here, And wet, And bloodied And brooding. The cold walls are soothing And the veil still acts To conceal The extent of filth Scourging up the walls Of this inaudible and bidding cave.

I make a giant stride on the sun's face and walk barefooted on acres of burning coals to make a slave of the scourging power of generations . I ride on the moon to catch the pleasure of the running away beauty and harvest the rumbustious golden dawn of the radiant rainbows. Then ten witches of Endor kidnapped me in exchange for ten pieces of silver but​ left thousand and one witches dead in my white flame!

EXPLOITS
How should I thank the Lord, Who loved us so much that He sent His only Son from the throne in Heaven, To the scourging, beating, and humiliation of His own people Lash after lash upon His back, cracking and aching as others mocked? Thirsty, hungry, tired, feeling alone, Gushing blood from the pounding of long, rusty iron nails upon a splintered wooden cross, One in each hand, One in each foot, As the sun beat His Holiest face, And the birds loomed overhead, As the sweat and blood solution on His thinning form Dropped in pools on the ground. With only pure love in His eyes and His voice, Clean, Righteous, Holy, Deserving, offering His own life and every possession and good thing, With only our best interests in mind, As sinners listened to His Wisdom, they pounded the nails in all the deeper. As the scathing heat, imprisonment, torment, Even locked in a prison before carrying His own cross to die upon, Denied before His own friends, His brothers and sisters, He cried "I thirst" from the cross, Tired, aching, hurting, agonizing. And despite all, Despite all He had endured, His words were, "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do." How should I thank the Lord Who has done all those things? There will never be enough. Lord, forgive me, for I am a fool. Your forgiveness, salvation, and love are so precious, and how could I ever comprehend them or explain them? Lord Jesus Christ, I love You and thank You, Though that could never be enough.

How Should I Thank the Lord?
The flags once whipped in the wind thrown about by turmoil's teeth while the motion caused concern there was guidance in what was felt surety in direction’s lead first to west and then to east this was the past once confirmed by sightings that tugged the heart the fraying began in plain sight subtle to those who watched the signs inconsequential by small measure until the damage took its toil the banners began to fail as the colors fade away threads lost to the savage gusts diminished streamers no longer whole storms lost their hold on the world this was the lie of vision’s source when indicators became mute implying quiet instead of strife hurricanes may be present scourging souls without mercy while the flags no longer wave missing from their lofty perch. © 2018.

Banners Fail
The love that lies down to dust is no stronger against the waves. The love that lies onto a rock will find its fate and never falters. Just like the sun that burns a farmer’s drying skin A man may feel the scourging heat of a heart in pain. When a heart so heavy in pain is like the heavy clouds in the sky, You can’t hold the water but you’ll rather choose to let it fell from the eyes. Let every drop of tear fall, so that it’ll water your soul. Tears! So tears to ease a throbbing temple. How can we fix what’s broken to bring it back together? Healing is not as easy as that, you’ll say move on! That’s the fact! Does that really mend the broken parts? The truth is, it does heal. Indeed! It has. But the wound will leave a scar Wherein some parts are nowhere to be found, That part, so small is a bunch of pain when recalled. But it finds a way through, to love the sorrow.

On a cotton-pyrethrum-rubber-sisal-canes plantations In a coal, copper, iron, ores mines excavations *** on hand, basket on back, metal bowl on head Sun burning high as hell’s brutal blazes Snow falling furiously as Vikings vitriol violence Coal furnaces fuming as sulfurous fiery flames Bent backs, bare butts, naked feet White snow-balls quick picks ‘Niglets’ tagged besides or behind their parents spent backs Bruised fingers, blistered hands, bleeding arms-palms Boulder rocks rolls, bronze bowls lifts Each sad with each, low grumbles For master behind a beast is in watch His scourging whip eager to swoosh At any slight rubber swing switch And leave a dear wound pain sorrowful only to oneself Brothers sorrowful, tears rolls down Their torn cheeks and chins As thorns thrusts severe ****** his fingers Swift he leaks sweet the crimson squirt before on fur-fluffs spills- The white ***** is to be as pure as its breeds brands ***** And on he urges the pounding pains on Brother damaged shoulders wracks Tired feet him lags the long rugged wound up the mines holes Sisters sad sobs, grimaces her faces As thistles prickles her pretty arms-palms Teary she withholds her agonies The master is not supposed to see tears or tires And on she begs her aches For in the evening the mercy Will be at the scales tilt Not much the ****** and pains endured Child on a pillory is crucified And mum he watches with bitterness his helpless father And big brothers molested-mistreated-mutilated hopelessly Tied on trialing poles pain pulling his mangled muscles Silent in pain she grieves irately her haplessly mother And small sisters routinely ***** helplessly Master is a monster who freely picks and haves who he wants But as necessity knows no law! Sufferings enough begins to bottle Slowly struggles begins to battle In ****** farms revolutions starts to swell ******* in noose and nooks dare their scares Till liberty little returns ending Barbaric brutality of spread slavery And Negroes became a bit legal..... © Kìùra Kabiri.

Thought of the fairest hooyo Is a hue to dab on you. ‘Red’ would tinge a thing or two: Oily drips on the apple skin. Cubic glass that sprinkles rays Mixed with brilliant sparkling smiles. That you are in white as the sun Only sieved of scourging warmth. Afro-brown has joined the queue; The melon bulb that’s packaged soft. Mummy’s nurse that props my head: Food and rest in dermal bronze. In the night, your colour glows; Leave me not in colour blind. Pledging scent that cuddles me, Shadow not your penal self. As you peck my lips to sleep Halfway through some lullaby, Eyes and cheeks in Snitcher’s love Just so real in whitish-blue.

MUMMY’S LOVE IN HUE
the day is passing like a riot a cloud of people chant the jailbird's song a string of placards encircled the throng a meteoric rise in the atmosphere has reigned in the souls of many a fist.... the heart of a crowd is listening wildly to speeches and voices emphasizing a point and views that each and everybody shares a unity that binds the masses there is one man that head the arms and bodies of this throng and he comes on strong to those who have done the nation wrong a slim and simple being seeing, seeking and wanting some changes some soothing replacement to this scourging arrangement the sun shines through him and although wounded with scars knowing one cell to the other, he keeps the challenge in his soul and tried to reach a porch in the sun for his people, for his children and for all that will come, after him.....

Of Truncheons, Barbed Wires and Tear Gases
What greater expression Of selfless love could be shown? What greater love Could ever be known? The sinless for the sinner On the cross to die Loving even those That screamed "CRUCIFY!" Not to mention the scourging That before took place Beaten so badly You'd hardly recognize His face But death couldn't hold Him As He came forth from the grave For those who believe To eternally save I know many believe This but a myth or fable But not me my friends For I know, my God is able!!
