CHALLENGE OF SPIRIT


The Challenge of the Spirit
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
While humanity grows more and more intelligent
there seems to be more distress, less happiness,
when we indulge in a thorough extensive inquiry
we quickly realize that in the absence of wisdom
cleverness will strengthen the arrogance of vanity,
such is the outcome of blatant misuse of capacity.
Temptations, cravings, lecherous self indulgence
enslave the native to the yearning lust of the flesh
accordingly the impulse of corruption supersedes.
Glory goes to the master of honesty and integrity
who can bring the whole self into righteous unity.

COLD SHOULDER



Going back a while
at the dead of night
as I passed you by 
in a darkening sky
without a proper hi
the reason why
was not because
dust got in my eye
I just wanted to deny
a taxing goodbye.

SETTLEMENT



The verdict is in
she stands to win
on the other hand
couldn't have been
had she not been
totally keen.
She didn’t mean
to spill the beans
it is just that
he had the means
she had the guts
which is what cuts
through thick skin.

She got her divorce
and all the resource
but of course
he is off the coarse
broke down in remorse
was cut out of his source
in a straight jacket
attempting to eject
his life is wrecked
she stands to collect.

WASTED DREAMS

I have watched the sky bleed
from arrows aimed at dreams
during blistering thunderstorm
the heaven abruptly torn apart
scattering the clouds in a rush
hovering like ghosts of angels
emerging from a wounded sky
now you know why clouds cry.







JUNGLE MUMBLE

The law of the jungle has been the given example
The urge of survival dictates mankind's adopted ways
Adam only ate an apple, he could have eaten Eve instead
Air and water, fruits, vegetables and grains amply maintains 
Life need not be taken from another to satisfy a bloody hunter
Yet such is the angle of the jungle, life at the expense of another.
