Poems
LIfe
A few times running away feel enormously
enticing
Perhaps physically or in an alternate
world you have created in your mind
Whichever you seem fit.
As your thoughts capture the possibility
of being disengaged from everything
temporarily
You even stare at the unseen with your
unblinking eyes
Sometimes your feet move around without
any direction in particular
Aching to disappear to a place where no
one resides apart from your animated
thoughts giggling and giving you a new
dimensional reprieve
It is true life sometimes can be tiresome
and lonely
Also, it is the most beautiful gift one
can have
To be conscious and experience what life
has to offer
In all its beauty and glory
In its taste and longing
In its all ravishing love
Give life one more try with an open mind
James Baldwin said, “To be black and conscious
in America is to be in a constant state of rage”
I say, “To be human and positively conscious
is to be in a constant journey of discovery”
Discovery of the beautiful beautiful world
through the master, Jesus
Come to him today!
