Courage


Courage is the art to uphold one’s truth.

The part inside oneself.
Honest about behaviour, past performance,
pain and disaster, strife, loss and failure.

About vengeance and that a useless waste in time.
About past acceptance, learning, tolerance
and overcoming the need
for perpetual shame and or grief.

The loss of time spent bemoaning who one is not.
The perpetual waste being someone
other than your gift ability and expressive self.

The courage
to value all human forms of life.
Preserve, relish and sanctify
that essence of your worth.
The part born with you at your birth.

The part often unacknowledged
and treated more with disdain
in a world full of unhappiness,
intolerance and continual Western complaint.

Out of control


Exceptionally wise
some people say or sprout.
Exceptionally.
So, whatever does that relate to?

Someone, somewhere
predicting the outcome
of the gold standard,
shares of worth, wealth explored?

What type of prediction
for the world wars?
What type of worth
when the oil depletes?

Gold a common exchange,
but little food and water
human beings starving.
Greed no longer a monetary treat.

I say to a wise woman about to give birth,
‘What are your predictions?’
And she does insistently retort.

Health, safe delivery, all okay.
Number of fingers and toes
in the right order and way.

Can I be of service


Can I be of service?
I don’t suppose I can.
You are off to the Never field
where loss of love and man
has been bought and sold
over and over again.

Lose your heart and mind to a madman.
Lost sight of your worth.
Lose the value of your birthright.

Love of life as sacred
has been washed by violent means
corruption and greed
dangerous breeding of ugliness
and loss to goodness, kindness, care
and peaceful creative ideas.

Trials and Tribulation


The world of other more informed sources of information.

Trials and tribulation.
Trials and unending praise.
Trials of misconceived notion.
And trial upon trial of a hateful stand
and judicial stand of unacceptable behaviour,
outcome and loss.

Trials are a way of knowing
what one can attest or be as a test.
Trials deceive, conjure and loss untoward
out of a hate-filled and horror-filled circumstance.

Trials indicate and inform
whether a right or ill-placed verdict outcome.

Trials are there to be acknowledged,
understood or made to be right
where a wrongly placed behaviour caused
consequence of harm, hurt or lost opportunity.

The real world


Action played out in the real world
is more about cover – undercover reality,
not the surface swill and swine.

The view of the real world is a completely other scene
one where people are risking the journalistic bent
to get the investigative reporting to that truth
and then extend.

No harm in breathing another type of fuel,
the problem with this ‘other world’
where reality roams
is that it is often not entirely free
from the vipers twisting and wriggling
to get in and see what exactly the news
that is wanting to be printed
by the likes of you and me.

I stole the headlines when I began to surface
and see the reality
of what this world I am to live in was like.
Not what I thought and prayed was true for me,
but the surface facts of what in reality
we are living in daily and accepting
as some sort of drone like existence.

Then it struck home
that I am my own responsibility
and need to be far more awake
if I am in the land of the living
and care about my own human race.
