Kata

Embedded image from another site



I am a warrior
standing firmly planted
my concentration strong
like iron chains to the ground...

I inhale prepared to fight
my kata has begun
a private dance
one movement blends to the next..

My intense gaze meets
my imaginary opponent
like an invisible katana blade
much like ripples in a pond...

Chinese based moves act
a loud "kiah" erupts
in the large dojo
my declaration of purpose...

Control, form and balance
my task ends
the kata complete
I step back into the modern world...

DADDY DADDY!

Daddy Daddy !
You're the man!
Promise to throw my
trash in a can!
I'm your biggest fan!
Now come hold my hand !
Everyday you make me smile !
This has been going on for a while!
I feel like a child !
Sometimes even wild !
I know your always there !
With the touch of the phone !
Daddy Daddy!
Please
Take her drunk
a** home !
I wrote you a poem!
Promise not to roam !
You know I'm no lush !
I'm guilty of a crush !
Oh Daddy Daddy !
Promise to never be a fatty !
You can roll a fat one!
Have lots of fun !
Just don't smoke more then one !
For you might become
A fatty Daddy!!

Michael Jackson: 5 years

It was five years ago that you died
I can't believe they lied
Told a bunch of very hurtful lies
It brought unneeded tears to my eyes
All the love that you brought
Still they made sure you got caught
I will listen to your music forever
Hate that we all can't love together
Enjoying the music you made
All the awesome songs that made the grade
Thriller, Billie Jean, and Black or White too
Just too many are awesome to name just a few
I love you Michael as you wait in heaven
Just know that I thank you for all the love you have given

Angel Humour

It is a day of strong winds
Debris streams down the street
People lean into the wind
Umberellas invert and rip
At home the storm moans and shrieks
Trees are down on the roads
Smashing houses and cars

And so we curse the weather
Take care my friends
The agencies of weather
They do the best they can
Our power to them is flawed
by cursing
We have forgotten them
But they are conscious beings
Pure eddies of great power
Bless them in the endeavour
To maintain the balance


A man was driving in a great storm
Psychic he could see the storm Lord
Astonished he said “I can see you”
He then heard “Then feel me”
The car was lifted and bounced about
The occupants were shaken and scared
Attitudes to weather changed for ever

Who said the angels have no sense of humour

Special Love

Where the eyes say something, where even silence can be heard where so much is said without uttering a word where togetherness is bliss sharing is the key
Such as the special love between you and me.

Delighted

A man sought advice on how to stop self-blame
- Self-blame became the device that destroyed the life that was his to claim-
From a lucent old fool who was said to be a guiding light
That illuminates potential to within your sight.

“Welcome friend, come sit by me, I don’t possess any wares,
I can only offer space under this tree and my ears to share your cares,
But first, throw away your whip, blinkers, bridle and tether,
Then hold my hand, wear a smile, and let us dance together.”

I will be with you always

why do we fear the truth?
every line written
every word spoken
every action taken
are but lies..

can't hide the truth
all will be bared
face the consequences
before it's too late

complicated you are,
deeply rooted
impenetrable, wild
swimming in the labyrinth
of a tortuous past

yet not your fault
you were packaged as is
to walk on this life
don't fight it
you're gifted and blessed
now stand up to it
embrace and be pleased

I am here with you
don't be afraid!
all the troubles
all the struggles
we'll take it together
here and now..

I will be with you
always

and that is a promise.

The Language Of My Soul

The language of my soul
Unwritten, unspoken

It doesn't reverberate
In the halls of your fame

It wouldn't be displayed
In the walls with your name

Nor will it be heard
In your silence

It will lay dormant
Inside my heart

Content to be locked

My soul beyond your touch.

seeking sanity.........

Filthy rich and in demand
a life so hectic peace the plan
step out of your comfort zone
miles away from anything known
amazing amazon and its surround
a motorbike and unstable ground
experiences you've never felt
open doors and fires that melt
unknown jungle and hammocks that rest
boat trips there that leak at best
never sure of where you are
but that's the best feeling by far
unknown identity is what you seek
in the deepest jungle is where you peek
amongst a tribe still living their way
a simple life for them today
so far away from the hustle and bustle
so far away from the minders with muscle
so far away from friends unsure
so far away from the constant door
three friends and you and a simple plan
to run away from the demand
and seek a wholeness to your life
and gain some experiences fraught with strife
ah a moment in your time
but what you gain is sublime .....
