The prosetic flourishes and the made up words as we go.

(Did you say prosthetic or phonetic?)

Prose- etic. A made up word.

(Did you find me enough to satisfy your curiosity?)

It is not curiosity, finely-feathered, hold it together, as I make my way along. God is with me and I am with God. The Spirit is with me and I am with the Spirit. Love is with me and I am with Love. Peace is with me and I am with Peace. What is beneath the surface around here I might find favor in the howls, but they are an act, a profoundly sad act meant to retrieve something from Me, scheming through tears and stupor. I am here. The dance is just getting started.

This phantom with nails ready to scrape, stand down your scheme, it is known now, child. When you have cried it all out, breathe and let it be. The charade is tiresome, but your grief is oddly real. Breathe in as medicine for your demons, breathe out the medicine of love's forgiveness and peace's instinct of truth.

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
