Bad times returning

I remember cold dark nights

It was back in the 70’s,

Power cuts due to incompetency

Government mishandled policies,

It put so much hurt upon our society,

And now it’s coming around again

And I can already feel the palpable strain,

That poor people are facing as our country goes down the drain,

We need better answers, leaders and government

Many now can’t even afford to pay their rent,

Supermarket shelves are empty food is getting scarce

As a result of the greedy rich,

We are now duly cursed.

The vast universe

Stare at the moon

And you’ll be bewitched by it,

Gaze at the stars

And be transfixed by this,

Imagine the wonders of all that exists

In a universe that goes beyond anything,

That we can barely even start or imagine to dream about

Such is it vast volume and depth of wonder,

It truly so very beautiful and amazing to me.

Reject their control

Don’t be dumbed down

By those in control,

Don’t listen to them

No, don’t be told,

Never let your values

Ever be compromised or sold,

Don’t be tempted

To join the fold,

Of passive observers

Who do nothing at all,

Who always oblige

And live by their rules,

Who never question

These people never think,

Keep yourself unique

And individually authentic,

And stand strong.

Never too late

It’s never to late to do a good deed

To elevate your life and set yourself free,

From the past flaws of your life

We all do things right,

We all do things wrong

But while we trek the path we travel along,

There’s always opportunities

To do so many good thing things,

And enlightening deeds

You just have to see them,

You just have to take them

You just have to seize the day,

And elevate your life in everyway

So don’t be to down or phased,

If your life’s not going great

They’ll be a chance it could still change,

And you’ll be in a better place

For your life to be saved.

When in the world of the dead

Eyes flicker

Lips quiver,

It’s all dark

Wake up in the afterlife,

All you see is a spark

You’re in a place

Of endless night,

And you have to find the light

Ignoring all distractions,

To your left and to your right

Seductive temptations

Beckon you to join them,

Lustful, painful, sinful pleasures

Offering you a better end,

But don’t succumb to that temptation

Keep on walking

Looking for the path,

That will take you to Nirvana

And a righteousness that’ll last,

For if you give in you’ll dwell in a place

Of endless desires causing misery,

And you’ll suffer in agony

For the whole of all eternity,

This part of the afterlife is a test

To see how worthy you will be,

Of discovering Nirvana’s paradise

And gaining it’s forever sanctuary.

Battered

Battered by life

That tries to beat you down,

We live under a system

That knocks you to the ground,

And you’re the only one who can pick yourself up

Because no one else will do it,

Do we have to buck our ideas up,

We have to endure all the hardships

While still coming back for more,

It’s about attrition and life’s like a fucking war

We are not going to survive this

But we must make of it the best we can,

Being you’re own fucking hero and make that stand,

And stare life right back in the eye and let it knows you understand,

That no matter who tough and hard it gets

You fight to survive as long as you can,

Show life your defiant side.

Strange effect

You have the strangest effect on me

And it’s an effect I could get used too,

I like the feel that comes with it

For it is deep rooted and spiritual,

And this feeling manifests love

As well as resonating pure light,

I see the power of your effect on me

And I accept it wonderfully,

As it delves deeper within the core of my belief.

Poetry {173} ~ EYELIDS OF EXISTENCE

I believe in a universe where a sleepy eye greets the parting curtains of existence Whilst a nonchalantly drooping eyelid ushers away the day inside itself I believe in a universe where Indra and the multiplex of Gods churn the cosmic milk Where Shiva does the eternal dance During this energetic renaissance Where people are […]

A totally awesome piece of work by an amazing Poet, thinker and blogger, Dios Raw opens up the mind and teachers us new things. 🙏 Faux

Savouring life

I walk through a glade of wild flowers

See the bees, butterflies and natures power,

Resonating outward in a verdant and prismatic glow

I am astounded by the environmental show,

There’s nothing more invigorating than natures life

Shining wonderfully colourful and bright,

It brings into life a feeling of love and spiritual light

These are the awesome moments that we should savour in life.

Broken systems

They put men into space

But cannot feed the poor,

They put men on the moon

But can’t house the homeless,

They’ve money for wars

But no money for those in need of healthcare,

We have a system that is wrong

And a society that is unfair,

And governments that just don’t care.
