Foreshadowing brought to assuming mind’s translation,
manifest as a dimensional creation image,
lasting until forever is no longer.

open mic
Last evening I had the unique pleasure to attend a Zine launch in Toronto that featured poetry reading and an Open Mic opportunity for whomever was brave enough to bare their creative soul to ideally, a critical audience of like-minded writers and lovers of poetry. With the aid and encouragement of a good friend to take the mic, I plunged in and, for the first time, Expose my Naykd self to a live audience. To say it was impacting would be an understatement and, to commemorate the event, I wrote the following:
Open Mic
Electronically echoing foreign musings
By frequency word of song in poem
Cerebral, creatively conjured
Uncensored, undeterred, broadcast
Intent on embellishment to thought
Altering recipient perception by its infusion
Initiating synaptic creation by its uniqueness
Transforming, altering traditional response
Manifesting reaction; forever altering living destiny

Universal Prayer: Oneness To All
Referencing Russell Brands tweet: Are we being lied to about healthy food? Here is the #trews youtu.be/CgPWmVsdwi4
After watching/listening to RB’s rant on the mentioned topic; the narrative he concluded the piece with reminded me of a poem I wrote sometime ago that in my mind at least, responds to the message and thought I’d share the two and you can decide for yourself:
Universal Prayer: Oneness To All
This is not prayer seeking divine forgiveness
This is not prayer seeking divine healing
This is not prayer seeking divine love
This is not prayer in worship of a divine creator
This is prayer of Enlightenment
This is prayer of Knowledge
This is prayer of Connection
This is prayer of Oneness to All
For I am one with all that is
That my Soul’s energy
Is given to the power of Enlightenment
That the Oneness of All
Be recognized as creator to the All that exists
This enlightenment to the Oneness to All
Gives empowerment to the Knowledge:
That Connected – all that ails is healed
That Connected – all will arise harmonious in the Universe
That Connected – all will derive energies of love universal
That Connected – all will become One with the Universe
Let the light that is my soul’s energy
Flow out to the universe
So that all may benefit from its power
That my soul’s void be filled with the energies of their love.
Let the energy of love shine and emanate from you such that you may receive mine in return.
To the Oneness – to All

Rebellion Threatens?
Darkening skies progressively envelops the world
As a growing, calamitous rebellion threatens to unfurl
Awaiting the spark to light the cannon fuse to imperil
Global, social civil-order collapsing in a downward swirl
World-wide austerity an IMF* invention
Usurping a nation’s wealth through monetary intervention
By central banks acquiescence without contention
Leaving tax payers lowered wages and depleted pensions
Fourteen years and growing
This global turmoil élite oligarch have been sowing
Their intent: to stimulate what is showing
A people’s uprising to an end they’ve long been knowing
Militarized police forces readied and in the waiting
Frothing for the conflict instead of political debating
Lives to be lost and arrests just for congregating
Main-stream-media the cowardice tool for infuriating
A rude awaking awaits the many, unaware masses
Manipulated, lost to electronic social-media’s rose-tinted glasses
When suddenly, their insular, virtual world finally collapses
Leaving them dumbfounded, lost and, flat on their gullible asses.

Simple Ambition
As a young man, early in my youth
I thought the world my realm
There would be nothing I couldn’t do
As captain steering this life’s rudder-helm.
But as the years past and, getting older;
The harsh realities of life taken root;
My ambitions it seemed, became less bolder,
As my true assessment of life; more astute.
Not to say things went totally array,
There have been successes along the way;
But, innocent naivety of youth does belie:
As more then simple ambition in life, is needed to play.
