POETRY DIARY

Forcing, dividing, while still multiplying
Stagnant and fading, everyone watching and everyone waiting
But no moves in the making
All fingers point out, blame being cast
The house of cards is falling, and it is falling fast
Slowly and calculatingly they are snuffing us out
Can you hear the high pitched rings?
The pills they are feeding us causing uncanny voices to sing
While zombies of humans just walk along staring
The chips of their phones held so close to their faces
Seem melted together not want for separate spaces
The abyss drags me down, invisible hands, silent screams
They whisper “we’re helping”
Please wake me up from this dream
The terror and violence have left a scar of tissue for my heart
The lost and the fallen invisibly rip me apart
I struggle free for moments brief
Until again it all starts; the fear and the grief

The news, they portray us all as evil and sinners
While they tell us we’re all losers and only they can be winners
They are forcing revelations on the souls who are living
The time bomb is ticking, have we forgotten forgiving?
Revelations morphs into Revolutions, too many are screaming
Even strong hearts are withering, the weak ones are streaming
The propaganda that spreads hate and fear in our spaces
As a means to control population and races

But alas, there is hope, a flicker of light
A divine spark one might say with strength and delight
In knowing that if hope, love, beauty and magic stay alive
More people will awaken, we all just might survive
We must not allow them to steal away our dreams, our kisses and stories, our memories, our means
We must come together and know that part of their game
Is to divide and to conquer, before they in secret maim
There are powers in numbers and sacred secrets too
Let’s talk about it; I am in, are you?
They are pushing our limits to test our courage and faith,
Now is the time for heroes and heroines to awake
The sound of silence screams, resistance lives on
There are clues scattered about, see them before they are all gone
The words of the prophets written on walls with graffiti
The angels on earth getting bombed and retreating

Our founding fathers, what did they stand for?
Life liberty and the pursuit of happiness, or was it something more?
A positive message of freedom and hope
Something our troops are still fighting for, so we’re told
But those morals, values and trust have oxidized with time and become sour
The iron values rusted out because of greed money and power
We are no longer free people to them anymore
Just slaves and sheep and a means for more
Can’t we all see the face of the Grim Reaper at our door?

Making money off wars, profiting off pain,
Selling weapons to the highest bidders, even to our worst enemies in vain
Oh how sad it would be to watch our country burn
On the technologies we created and sold, turning us from ashes and dust, just to earn
I scream out let’s all rise and come together this time and confront all the lies
Freedom isn’t free but the truth will prevail
It will set us free; it will be the wind for our sails
We must come together before it is too late
The timing is close, opening are hells gates
But they are here on earth not in some make believe place
Our own hell on earth will be our inevitable fate
If we don’t rise up and I pray and I hope
That all people of all backgrounds will together help untie these ropes
Help break the chains that are holding us under
I hope the hearts of the evil can be melted with thunder
And lightening as we gather in mind, body and spirit
Electrically charged and demanding to hear it
To hear them admit that we have been left out to dry
But we all must remember accountability must be taken from ALL sides
It doesn’t matter your race or decree,
Your gender or religion
Your dress, what you breed
We are all human, we all have rights
What little is left of them now is why we must unite

The divine feminine is on a comeback to save us with great might
If we can find her within each one of us, it will give us all promising insight
With education, time and change, healing will begin
We will go from a division of weak to winning again
But this time will be the right way; we have been doing it all wrong
The weaker are just getting weaker giving power and strength to the strong
Stand with me my brother, my sister, my kin
Stand and let’s work on making America and our world beautiful again
Everyone is watching our play, this could be our last set on the stage
If we continue down the path of sadness, fear, and rage

Or this could be the beginning of greatness-our choices are pending
We can still choose-either melancholy tragedy or divine happy ending
If we choose the latter, the ending will just be the beginning
Together united, all of us loving and living
In Harmony and striving towards true peaceful ways
Let us choose a new beginning over the end of days

And as all the ingredients start to unfold
They can form the recipe for disaster OR the greatest story ever told
Remember I am here with you brother, sister, you are not alone
I may not know your name but we come from the same blood, the same bones

Let’s rise together, like the Phoenix from ashes to dust
Let’s learn again to love thy neighbor, and to trust
We still have free will, we can still choose
To learn from our past mistakes, it is up to me and you and the rest of our nation
We need everyone involved to be a part of this equation
The whole is always greater than the sum of its parts
Stop allowing division and fear to seep into your hearts
My hand is outstretched; take my hand sister and brother
Let’s unite and help one another
Our greatest strengths are our greatest weaknesses, BUT the reverse is true
Our time for glory has come, I am in……are you?
