Not Mine to Keep


I am simply writing what is not mine to keep. What I believe is my reason for being here at this very moment in my existence. I would never call what I write or think or feel religious, as most, if not all religions, for me have yet to acknowledge where, who and why they are. I do not see it in their practice, in their prayers, in their forgiveness in their love, so instead of assuming I know more than they, I challenged myself to come up, for me, a much more viable alternative to pigeon-holing it into some rigid format. I imagine it is, for me, the merger of belief and truth, reality... It is not up to me to do much, not even to imagine who or what it is that I am in all of this. Although, the question has escaped these fingers countless times...

Love, peace and goodness to you, yours and the (H)eartH...

sdrawkcaB nruT (Turn Backwards)

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

SKYFALL

Skyfall... We continue to play along with an unnatural game that has serious consequences, soon we'll find ourselves enslaved without recourse to the system. (Is that true of local charades?) Yes. (Why can't we free ourselves from the system?) The madness of money. (It's not money, it's people, right?) It's both, money and us in tandem, thus assuring money's might and our adherance to its loudness. (Madness...) Indeed. © 2017 Mark Richard Prime

THE ROCK HOLDS

The rock holds the soil in and from the soil springs the tree, the green of LIFE rolling from the blue, rising to the occasion of itself. . “Be!”, the (H)eartH declares, “Be what you are!” . (We thought we were!) . (We think we are!) . “You are, but not freely, therefore, only a thought, and a thought without much thinking, as if you were scared into it.”, the (H)eartH added. . [a quietude begins, the truth being heard and heeded, grooving to the flow] ~ © 2017 Mark Richard Prime
