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

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.
I am pleased to announce the release of my latest book of poetry titled:
REFLECTION – RESPONSE through the voice of poetry.
As an introduction, this collection of poems is premised on reflection of the many important and diverse issues facing the global human community today and, through the voice of poetry, express my personal response to a perceived affect these issues are having on human, societal evolution. Interspersed amongst these poems are several reflecting a personal philosophy toward life, sexuality and the environment.
I hope you will take a few moments to visit my Self-publishing website by clicking on the image below to review the contents of this book and, I would be further honored if you found it worthy of purchasing at a reasonable cost. It is available as Soft-cover and Hard-cover issues.
Thank you in advance for your time in this regard.
Enjoy:

boycott Israel and its economy!
Know the truth of why the HARPER GOVERNMENT of Canada recently visited Israel. The promotion of Canada as a viable place for Israeli business and consumer products makes we Canadians complicit in the atrocities and illegal persecution of Palestinian Peoples of the region. Canadians must support and join other democratic nations that are officially boycotting Israel until such time as it resolves permanently, this important and long-standing issue. SAY NO TO ISRAELI BUSINESS!

The Blame
Myopic is the global, political mindset,
It yields the greatest electoral return,
Foregoing the interest of the unborn children,
Yields fossil fuels legislated to pollute, opposition to spurn.
Jobs, jobs, and more jobs
The rationale to explain and excuse
The destruction of earthly resources
Health and welfare of the many to be abused
Fracking, pipelines nomenclature of the day,
Hyped as essential for the economy to survive.
Forests and fresh water resources given to the cause;
Deemed unessential for humanity to flourish and thrive.
The powers that be hold all the relevant cards,
The balance of power rests in their hand.
To reverse the current destructive, global path;
The powerless together, must unite and band.
Populace, street demonstrations are impudent to needed change;
A more powerful, permanent message may be needed, enforced.
A global, collective opposition to those self-serving and rule;
A tangible, visible sign of change that all humanity can endorse.
Violence, loss of property and life is not the wanted course,
Yet they whom hold the power for conditions to be sustained
Continue to ignore the plight and demands of the many;
Whatever the outcome, responsibility, to them, the blame, remains.

Born Killers
Are we all sons and daughters of KILLERS!
Yes, a rather harsh statement though, arguably, there is some truth to this observation.
Dating back to days of primordial-man, the male of the species, given strength of stature relative to that presumed of his female counterpart, assumed the roll of hunter-gatherer and protector of the clan unit from predators. This killer instinct fueled by high levels of testosterone, though tempered over time, remains within our genetic heredity. Frankly, we are the direct descendents of those whom the `killer instinct’ has and arguably still is, an essential component to survival.
In consideration to this hypothesis, one need recognize the psychological implication(s) associated with, over the millennia, by male characterization as `machismo’, principally derived from the demands imposed on him. A role ultimately proven as successful, amongst other obvious factors, given a global population of over six-billion humans today.
History supports the notion that Man as in `Male’, is imbued with a propensity to be aggressive and harsh or, the staunch defender, protector, when faced with conflict. As implied above; it is inherent in his evolutionary DNA. However, in light of 21st century advances is this established, historical role of `Male’ still relevant? Is it time for a new era of `feminism’ to assume a more commanding role in shaping human consciousness on a global scale?
Female participation in regions of organization and position of power to decide, presently dominated and heralded as the Male’s role, is on the increase. Globally, women are taking and occupying relevant, leadership roles in all facets of human life as politicians and chiefs of commerce and industry.
In the period leading up to the much hyped world altering events of Dec. 21st 2012, many mystics and astrologist promoted the notion that post 2012, a gradual transition of non-physical consciousness from left-brain (male) to right-brain (female) will commence and promulgate into the century. Unfortunately, statistically, this has not materialized especially in the northern hemisphere as depicted by the following: Source: Grant Thornton International Business Report 2012
(Source: http://www.businessinsider.com/women-worldwide-still-struggle-to-break-into-leadership-roles-2012-3?op=1
Possibly the first clue failure to the notion that Females will assume a greater leadership role in world affairs manifest with the failure of Hilary Clinton to win the leadership nomination during 2012 United States Democratic Party Presidential Primary. Nor was she considered (or possibly refused) the position of Vice-President but then became the United States Secretary of State and subsequently retired to John Kerry in early 2013. It is rumored that Clinton will run for nomination in the 2016 Primary.
In the ensuing period other nations have observed a significant percentage of women in leadership positions. Possibly most surprising of these is Russia leading all major nations at 46 percent versus Canada and the United States combined, at 18 percent. The global average is 21 percent.

Going beyond the prophetic notions of mystics and astrological cosmic prediction, in the end, the ultimate question truly is: whether the leadership of nations, corporations and human organizations by either women or men and, the notion of right versus left brain consciousness attributed to both respectively, has significance in the performance and product of such leadership?
Several peer reviewed studies have been conducted to address this question and their findings suggest the differences on the whole as in-conclusive. Principally the assignment of predominately right-brain function to women versus left-brain to men, is unsupported. Factors such as contextual environment play a significant role in responses given by either gender.
For example `A self-assessment Internet survey was conducted by Brack and Zhang on Neuro-politics.com ‘ assessing Mean Left versus Right brain responses of Liberal, Moderate and Conservative Males versus Females produced the following results:
[Abbreviations: Female Liberal (FL), Female Moderate (FM), Female Conservative (FC), Male Liberal (ML), Male Moderate (MM), and Male Conservative (MC).]
To fully explore the question goes beyond the scope of this essay and a general search of the Internet will produce significant results to ameliorate the subject. To gain a full explanation of the variances presented by the above charts follow this link:
To conclude, it is suggested that whether males or females dominate position of power at any level of human civilized organization, ultimately it is the humanity within them to overcome the inherent, human propensity to extort any element of human emotion and psychology upon their fellow humans. Only time and record of history remains to know the truth to the suggestions we are born KILLERS.

Something?
It’s been quite cold and windy for several days
So indoors is where I’ve tended to stay
To pass the idle hours with lack of things to play
I’ve taken to write, to have my say
So with nothing standing in my way
These thoughts I wish to convey:
The world has become a convoluted place
Six billion plus souls comprised of many a race
Let’s not forget, and of every kind of faith
Both source to acts of human evil and disgrace
Turmoil and chaos seem incessant and growing
Instant communications has everyone knowing
That money and blood are things most flowing
And backward seems progress is truly going
Fiat currencies seem to have met their match
Ponsi schemes to wealth are becoming unlatched
Thieving bankers getting richer and unable to catch
Well the common man runs out of `scratch’
Technology the scourge of automated wars
Politicians and lobbyists obliging whores
Consumerism still the ultimate lure
Global bankruptcy might become the final cure
Progress’ pollution disputed as foul weather’s cause
Yet it continues despite enforcement of countless laws
The question to be asked: what will be the last straw?
To show humanity it is the cause, the flaw!
Sorrowful is this bit of verbal tripe
Of how I’ve come to view this dire, modern life
It is not spoken out of any kind of spite
It is to wish for something to make it right.
