That’s not my way

Posted on by

So I witness you

And I study all

And if I say I don’t see colour

But I see the individual

I see the uniqueness in truth

Does that make me descrimatory

This is not something I believe

Because I know that I am not

I welcome all with open arms

As I seek the amazing within you

Why do people strive to divide?

Why do people manipulate us with lies

Does it have to be that when we try to talk

Hoping that real answers will be sought

That someone throws in a hand grenade

Of racism or sexism and different people rights

That simply help highlight the divides

That keep us from being able to unite

Is that the states fear

This is what the media need

People seperated by class, sex, colour, beliefs and greed

And why is it that people cannot see

How they’re being used

O don’t hate no one at all so don’t get that confused

I appreciate and love all of you

And I want to understand what it is that inspires and motivates your truth

In this way we can learn more and then make a stand

To drive a society based on and around equality

This is what we really need not divisive beliefs

That drive a wedge between us all

And cause anger, rage and hate

That is not my way.

Three degrees hotter

Three degrees hotter

Three degrees hotter in the future

Means the world’s going to burn

Three degrees hotter

And yet we still don’t learn

Three degrees hotter

Enough for skin to burn

Three degrees hotter

Yet still not enough concern.

Unacceptable

Posted on by

The world burns and this is unacceptable

Not enough done by those who are electable

The whole world seems less intellectual

As it reads less and care less and is spiritually less reachable

With empathy not so detectable

With love abandoned because it became labelled

And anything that has a label just like we has a price

So it gets sold to the highest bidder

Which just is not acceptable

But through conditioning and media we’re susceptible

And on many levels way to gullible

And during this time of mass distraction

We do not see what is happening and what’s in action

Our plastic, garbage filled highly world is burning

Which is just unacceptable to me

It all stems from man’s insatiable greed

Which leaves many without any food to eat and dying of disease

Humanity has found a way to perfect inflicting misery

Upon this earth and everything upon it

And that’s just in way acceptable.

Communing with nature

Communing with nature

At the headland of the coast

Muted in Jurassic memory,

The wind blew all around me

The cliff crumbling right under my feet,

The dark clouds rolling in from the horizon

The power of the sea drowning out words I may speak,

But here I stand defiently in still of mind and heart

And here I stand on strong legs,

Witnessing nature’s forceful art

In mindfulness I reach outward,

And feel it’s passionate splendour

Desperate and frustrated how much it had been plundered

I let my consciousness engage with nature,

The earth, the wind, the sea,

I communed with all that is

And asked forgiveness for our terrible ills,

And in my peace and breath by breath

I felt myself and nature connect,

Now the ground rumbles no more

And the sea was calm and the clouds opened up,

And a ray of sun broke through to give light

In a way serene, holy and divine,

And all was now once again fine

But not forever if we don’t change,

And nature will no longer listen this way

And it may be the end of days.

Sea rage

Posted on by
Standard

The raging sea roars in anger and contempt

Breaking against rocks and cliffs causing ships to wreck,

Angry is the sea as it roils and boils in a tumult

The maelstrom of foamy passionate rage surges on,

Wave after wave and rage upon rage

Angst against this wasteful polluting age,

The sea in its powerful anger threatens to lay us all to waste,

Waves of attrition, of hydraulic action

Waves of corrosion, solution and corrasion,

All of these actions damaging the land that we live on

The brings down the headland with very little qualms,

The sea it rages on, tearing things apart,

With its power and relentless surging,

Almost as the sea is trying to be purging

All forms of dirty polluting parasites,

From this natural world

It promises to end it all of waves of foamy, angry, curls.

All lives matter

Posted on by

Australia proves in the midst of the fires

All lives matter so don’t get this crosswired

Humans, animals all living breathing things

Are deserving of protecting

So let’s stand in this moment and think again

All lives matter in everything.

It’s not funny

Posted on by
Standard

It does not take much

For people to sell out to greed

I understand those on their knees

How they beg and they plead

But it all falls on deaf ears

Because those with money and power just don’t care

What I can’t understand

Is why sell your principles

For few measly coins here and there

I truly do despair, because life’s not fair

And there are people out there

Who thrown a few coins

And tossed a few lies

And told anyone from outsides not right

And they are sold untruths a fed with national pride

By those who exploit us all the time

Yet they buy the lies

And they buy the line

That those from outside

Will take all that you have

Your job, your house, your women your money

It’s do fucking farsickle it is not even funny

And you buy it all

And you sell your soul

And sell all your principles with ease

It’s so sad to watch

It’s so sad to see

People give up what they believe

In the name of a few extra coins and national pride

In the name that immigration is not right

You pin your flag to that mast

And wonder why I stand and laugh

Even though it’s not funny.
