SOCIETISM

SOCIETISM

My soul is keening:
crying out in wretched lament.

Americans ruled by capitalistic greed
disavow human and animal torment.

The ARTS are mirroring
suffering from mammal to human.

Blackfish and 12 Years A Slave
expose capitalistic greed of subhuman.

The 100 Greatest Americans of the 20th Century
is phenomenal testimony by Peter Dreier

Revealing Americans who walked the talk -
of sacred constitution words aimed higher.

With immortal WE THE PEOPLE -
SOCIETISM is what founders aimed for.

All under God free to live fullest potential -
animal/human kingdoms kith & kin corps.

Constantly pray for rich/powerful/world leaders:
Please God, expel evil from us - one/all.

Cast greed, blasphemy, unholy forces from earth:
Infuse us with empathetic spirit so we rise tall.

Happy Saint Valentine's Day

Happy Saint Valentine’s Day

Wednesday
February 14, 2018 (Rev. 2/15/18)

I came out of two-month coma St. Valentine’s Day 2006;
experiential alertness surreal with unfocused awareness.
The terror revivification horror was waiting in the wings;
surrounding me was positive medical energy cradling sick.

I recognized the day: enjoyed seeing balloons/flowers;
yet puzzled bed ridden state juxtaposed with loneliness.
Attached to machines: unable to move was frightening;
minutes accumulated exponentially: seemed like hours.

I thought I heard daughter’s voice and eagerly sought out;
but, she wasn’t there, nor son, nor mon ami – felt so alone.
And my body wasn’t right – felt unclean from head to toe;
an unheard scream was clamoring inside – trying to shout.

It took a few days before the terror peaked in full force;
post traumatic stress disorder appeared live/stabbing.
In anguish realized not doing normal routine praying;
like child hiding under bed; please: no future course.

When loved ones appeared, the details emerged;
miracle survival exclaimed by them/all medical.
Evil had come knocking determined to take me out;
eye blinded/ear severed - 42 stab wounds –scourged.

A decade plus later: testify praying rose up high;
in fact intensity heightened/illuminated for one/all.
Aspiring love for God with whole heart, mind, soul;
and neighbor like self dominate as years go rapidly by!
