Tomorrow
The arsenals
have all been
permanently
decommissioned.
Children drink
warm soup &
deliberate the
forthcoming game.
The sun & wind
power the de-sal
plants feeding
the world landscape.
You & I dance -
both realising
the way it is
always going to be.

Re: Ruminations
Rain
You stand in the rain
your hair in a mess
drops on your nose
you really care not.
A menacing cloud
the wind it picks up
leaves everywhere
this sight I can't top.
I walk to your flank
I whisper so deep
the secrets we know
a laugh then a cry.
We talk of the world
of what we will do
of how we shall lead
this day without lie.
Our nuptial dreams
to make it complete
the rings and a song
the predestined time.
I hold you in close
together we kiss
the rain almost stops
this night is sublime.

Re: Ruminations
True Self
Do you live out of your own volition or is your parent's or government's or society's life the one you live? It is difficult to be at one - just to be yourself. Often standing alone in your own shoes means risking being different than the herd. But what else can we do? Be a carbon copy of celebrities - the rich and famous? I think not. The only way to genuine legitimate self-realisation is to be brave and consider how in the past the world reeled you in and expected you to act in the proper way. Fight it. Cry for the child in you who was stolen by the status quo. There is a function all of us know - that of grieving and mourning. Painful as it is, it is the best medicine. Our 'experts' plod along in rats and stats, with chemicals and theory. They are out of touch with emotion, they are out of touch with love.
Believe me, 'freedom is just around the corner from here'.

Isaiah 53 - Masoretic Text
53:1 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of Yähwèh revealed?
53:2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, [there is] no beauty that we should desire him.
53:3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were [our] faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of Élöhîm and afflicted.
53:5 But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
53:6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and Yähwèh hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
53:7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
53:8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
53:9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither [was any] deceit in his mouth.
53:10 Yet it pleased Yähwèh to bruise him; he hath put [him] to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong [his] days, and the pleasure of Yähwèh shall prosper in his hand.
53:11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
53:12 Therefore will I divide him [a portion] with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

“Behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD, “That I will raise to David a Branch of righteousness; A King shall reign and prosper, And execute judgment and righteousness in the earth."

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Re: Ruminations
Happy Holidays Boss.
Avalanche
Leonard Cohen
Well I stepped into an avalanche
It covered up my soul
When I am not this hunchback that you see
I sleep beneath the golden hills
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn, learn to serve me well/what makes me well?
You strike my side by accident
As you go down for your gold
The crippled h i that you clothe and feed
Is neither starved nor cold
He does not ask for your company
Not at the centre, the centre of the world
When I am on a pedestal
You did not raise me there
Your laws do not compel me
To kneel grotesque and bare
I myself am the piedestal
For this ugly hump at which you stare
You who wish to conquer pain
You must learn what makes me kind
The crumbs of love that you offer me
They're the crumbs I've left behind
Your pain is no credential here
It's just the shadow, shadow of my wound
I have begun to long for you
I who have no greed
I have begun to ask for you
I who have no need
You say you've gone away from me
But I can feel you when you breathe
Do not dress in those rags for me
I know you are not poor
You don't love me quite so fiercely now
When you know that you are not sure
It is your turn, beloved
It is your flesh that I wear

Re: Ruminations
G'day Gully.
I am late.
Chanukah no longer exists.
Every year from now on the 25th of Asher (the 25th of December) will be called 'Ramadan' because Yeshu'a's father was descended from Ibrihim and Hagar. Hagar was not Jewish - she was Arab. The actual date of Yeshu'a's birthday was the 9th of Naphtali in 13,699,998,010 (the 9th of October 4 BCE).
From next year, and forevermore, on the first day of the first month (formerly 'New Year's Day') we will celebrate 'Machmoud'. This word is the correct Arab word for the last prophet. The word 'Muhammad' is Anglicized.
I'll see you later my dear friend
