Dichotomy In The Human Experience


Like the planet, spinning, spiraling outward along with its cousin planets comprising this spacial galaxy, fueled by the energy of its central body Sun traveling through the dark void of space; the events comprising the history of Earth’s current epoch of human inhabitants, ravel timelessly toward an unknown destiny.

Each twenty-four hour cycle of Earth’s excursion toward the unknown speaks to the life stories of its seven-billion inhabitants. Stories that compose the nature of human existence within the fragile environment to which it has been mysteriously born. Stories diligently recorded and maintained over centuries of time-measured yet, authored for an unknown audience for it is evident through humanity’s ability to repeat its failings, to heed lessons taught through life-experience.

Contention surrounds the prospect that destiny plays important in the flow and ebb of human experience, a guiding energy toward an as-yet, unfathomable outcome. Though, is the daily expunging of countless, individual human lives by self-inflicted carnage and suffering expressed in wildly imaginable constructs excuse-able by such unsubstantiated reason?

The stain of evilness embodies each living soul demanding conscious effort to entomb within, to refuse succumbing to its destructive potential. Though many of human populace willingly oblige and acquiesce to the few and powerful belligerent, abusing forces within its realm; and, those whom are brave to oppose such evilness are effectively and ceremoniously stifled in their effort.

The progressive evolution of human experience too is evidenced daily reinforcing the perception that humanity at its core  holds to ideals exercised as humane and goodly acts.

It is this perplexing dichotomy in human nature compounded by the inability to clearly define purpose to presence on Earth that both propels and stifles the human experience and progressive evolution, unrestricted to its fullest potential.

Walnut Trees


Walnut Trees

Walnut Trees

Binary Souls

Entombed to the Wood

Born to this world

To Know

To experience the tides of time

A living memeory

For all to see

To All, to know

Walnut Trees

Ominous yet, strikingly graceful, towering tall,

With wind-swept leaf laden branches too strong to fall;

Their thick, deeply channeled bark speaks to a timeless stand,

Defying death by disease growing mighty and grand.

Age-old witness to the passage of human history,

Intolerant to cycles of drought and winter misery;

Here only to serve their natural purpose; to purify Earth’s air,

Their lushful green grandeur of beauty; a gift to humanity to share.

As with all that is natural, an end time will one day come

When the boldness of their presence, no longer hides the Sun;

A sad day truly, for all whom have failed to witness, to see,

This wonder of nature’s doing, these centuries old, Walnut trees.

Climate Changed?


winds

Watching current, daily News reports on the flooding that has inundated parts of Alberta Canada, parts of Europe inspired the writing of the following poem:

 Climate Changed?

The ferocity of the storm brewed

The sky stirring ever darker, we knew

The deluge of rain and ice pellets to fall

Will leave their mark of hardship for all

 

The minutes seem to pass like hours

Finally thunderous clouds let loose their showers

Each droplet falling to hit its target with a crushing thud

The ground saturated becoming wet beyond mud

 

The speeding winds’ howling sounded eerily of train whistles

Branches from fallen trees flying like guided missiles

The horrendous damage this vile weather will ultimately inflict

Once the storm finally over, a ruinous sight left to make one sick

 

Many voicing the claim severe climate-change is Man-made

Does little to remedy the loss of all that a Life has saved

What this growing global weather phaenomenon does enlist

Is for humanity to rethink its presence if on Earth, it wishes to exist

NATURE’S SEED


gmo

Parlaying scientific understanding to Nature’s natural birth

Through genetic modification of Seed put to Earth

A wondrous gift given generations of humankind

A gift with potential to be lost for all future time

Humanity is at the threshold to agri-food-corp enslavement

A global phenomenon that seems beyond containment

Impudent, purchased government blindly legislate the prevailing condition

Ignoring the public outcry to deny proliferation and permission

Those to whom greed of wealth arises from this abomination

Deem themselves beyond all natural and legislated laws of Nations

Emboldened with knowledge their food source will always be natural and safe

The potential death of the greater population hinders not its implementation pace

Passage of time will render truth to the offering of this modified genetic fruit

Or, are the altruistic goals of elite and powerful for humanity to become moot

Begging the question: Is the deadly potential of this human experiment needed

Or, is humanity better served by the eons-old method, Earth is naturally seeded?

Soul’s Journey Given


Soul Given

Ghost like, dark mist cloud of evil slither unseen through sky of goodness’ light with sinister deed to ensue, malevolently executing its providence of domain to refute that which is preached to be said, its wonderment of resolve is sanctioned unto the being who sees to this truth of beginning yet not fulfillled by the challenge that doth make known too, its presence unto the seeing Being.

Cloud of goodness that envelopes each living soul being is the challenge to sustain; for within each is the whisper of evil yet contained but, wanting and piercing to be fulfilled in the full goodness of the the glory it seeks to domain.

The harmony of balance is the Soul’s journey given to sustain giving providence of the domain to the goodness of light

Paradox to Existence – The Stroke of Death


d

  

I wrote this contemplation some-time ago but, in the course of readying for a move I came across it and thought to post:

 Paradox to ExistenceThe Stroke of Death

In contemplation of the last and final moment of life,

As the last breath escapes past parted lips,

What thought will consume a brain dying?

Will it be:

  • The sudden flash of life’s long forgotten memories; 
  • the wish for things to have been done differently; 
  • the last taste of a favorite food or drink; or simply, 
  • You just DIE!?

  

Speculation of that final event,

Parallels the speculation to what follows.

 

To experience is to know – then it is too late,

To communicate!

 Another Paradox to Existence.

The Snake


snake

Change in location, major change in life

The outcome of agumented, mental strife

A change brewed with passage of time

And ceaseless conflict with a conflicted mind

Proponents to living in the Now

Don’t often express the guide to How

Leaving to chance just to know When

A life-changing move is easiest to defend

Reflecting upon life’s traveled course

Can be a misleading, information source

The answer may lie with nature of the Snake

Shedding old skin: simply a living trait

Earth’s Largess


sunrise

Morning Sun rises to horizon’s shining glory

Golden rays energy to imbue the day’s story

Full essence of nature composes the coming day

Life for love’s fulfillment makes its ubiquitous play

Earthly bounty given for all to imbibe, to enjoy

Cornucopia of texture, color and sounds to employ

Calming tranquility of crystal-water brooks

Source to feed human senses beyond that spoken in books

Easily is lost awareness to what nature freely brings

Lush flora, fauna, animal cries that sing

Faith given to coldness of technology, running away from the rest

Modern-man has grown to ignore Earth’s largess.

Challenge


 winds

the winds of change,

by wit, some lay claim,

bring for some, providence to fame

to others, a wrath to disdain

regardless, it does remain,

the human spirit can sustain

challenge; by the winds of change.
