I believe in empathy
I don't believe in organized religion
Things that require faith over facts
A holy book that demeans women ,gays and promotes slavery
I don't follow any leaders
Actors playing their role
We cling on their words and choose a side
Politics and religion will always be our divide
I do believe in thinking for each self
I believe in living your own life,
And allowing others to do the same
Love is Real . Kindness can heal
Though we may differ from our beliefs
If united ,we're impossible to beat
Sadly
I don't believe that day will come

Road Trip '97
Winding forest roads
Cut through the deep south
In the heart of June
~
How those days reeled by
In the warm window pane
Changed from red desert plains
Into green still waters
~
Still the highway drones
Through the bleary nights
As a mother's lullaby
From those years kept buried
Under miles of darkness
~
Until home reaches back
As an off ramp through the trees
To the red bricks and columns
To the wide smiles of kin

America, The Lie We Live
You claim to value always stating the facts
So the facts are stated to you..
When the facts are revealed you complain
'You're so negative, why are you so depressing?'
You enter denial, pick the bright side, and smile
You won't even face reality
You would rather look away
Why does it scare you?
All it exposes is the world we live in..
Why not just face it?
You can fool yourself for only so long..
You can claim America can do no wrong..
You can lie as lies weave a bed of thorns
As you are cut you can feel the reality you ignore
You call me negative? Why?
You think you're positive? Why?
I wish I had been born in a different country..
We ignore the truth
We build pain
We reinforce and grow the tragic facts
We've lost common sense..
The first step to solving any problem..
Is realizing then just facing that it exists..
The truth is all that you seem to resist..
The impact is massive..
It defines pain..
Smile all you want and deny your own reality
The most insane among us are you..
Why was I born here?
I am part of what I find sickening
I want to be free of this
I'd live anywhere but here..
Where the people say they love kindness..
Then they drown in an ocean of it..
What is real and what is not..?
I salute the flag as an old relic
I remain astonished by what we've made of it
I love my constitution..
I hate my country..
Do you struggle to survive, Fellow Americans?
For every penny of 'freedom'..
We become less free..
You can't pay your rent
Nor afford your gas..
I won't begin to write of health or food
I'm not in the mood.. This is too easy to notice
Why can't you see?
You can't be at peace, peacefully..
So there are drugs with which to feel free..
Look into your mirror..
Is it you or is it me?
Is the reflection sad or is it happy?
Is it nothing?
Is it empty?
Is our freedom only a quaint fallacy?
It feels like a tragedy, an infectious calamity
We're becoming faint falling stars..
How could you possibly be proud?
Look at us.. Look at what we've become..
Fears frought with harrowing functions
We stand at a moral junction..
Holding power, we can save or end lives
Its better to be a saint of life than a knife of night
Its crucial at this point to view our mirrors..
We need to ask ourselves..
Is that reflection you?
Or is it The Lie We Live?

She's Living A Lie
Its called The American Dream..
Its advertised as heaven..
Because you have to be asleep to believe it..
The American Dream is a killing machine
Once it was real and we were big..
Now we're small..
A shadow of who we were..
Clinging to nothing..
We lose our grip on our own creation..
Blaming the rest of the world for our misfortune
Never understanding we have more than most..
We become claimed by the fires of good intentions
We become less than we were..
We shrink away from the abiity to be more..
It hurts to see a beauty die
She is forgetting who she was..
She's Living A Lie..
Hoping she sees how badly she's getting screwed
I try not to cry.. I don't want her to die..
I've always been honest on this topic..
I've spoken the observable truth..
If we fall..
America..
The joke is on you..
A punchline that will draw no laughter
We are no fictional story..
We are human and alive..
We can't just let her die..
It hurts to be us..
Never forget.. We are real..
Life is no nintendo game..
Yet, we fix no true issue..
We are falling into oblivion..
This is me. A part of you.
I see you. A part of me.
I swear its true.. America has gone insane..
The reason is because we ignore our pain..
It lives unaddressed. As a result..
We're a mess..
We need to look at ourselves..
That would be a start..
It'd be the best..

Joyful Brown Birds
Who is your maker
That your language
Is song
Every morning?
You flit about ahead of me
While I walk under
The heat of day,
so carefree
Yet so plain!
Small Swallow
American Sparrow
Oh, Indian pitta
In the lush evergreens
So beautiful you are!
Birds of a feather
Soar in my dreams
Full of song, full of
Flight
Chatting above the cloudsJoyful Brown Bird
You are not plain,
You sing the songs of heaven

America
Oh, my country, tis of thee
I think of and weep silently.
What have we become?
Scared to move without our guns.
Nothing about these states is united.
America, the land of opinions divided.
How can we expect progession
In a land of constant oppression?
No one is free
In our great land of liberty.
We're so busy screaming
That no one is heard.
Living in fear,
Taking the media at their word,
Ignoring what we actively observe.
Left against right
Black and Brown against white
But what about me?
Someone who is a blend of all three?

Equal
The holiday is dark, cold and wet this year. The waring artillery of fireworks rumbles on
Lead astray, divided and infirmed with death
Our US Capital was violated by vile ignorance
We are still here in these working city streets
The smell and sound of urban warfare wafting
Safe inside with pets, an end to front line duty
Fabric meshworks of America, broken in hate
Restorative tears craving national democracy

Stop Raping Us
Every two Minutes in America
A woman is raped
A sad unbelievable fact.
Imagine if every 2 minutes in America a man was sodomized by a woman...
Would it then be on the media?
Would those females go to prison
Unlike the men who rape women?
©dreamersneverlearn8 0
Boys will be boys
A man who was accused of raping over 2 dozen women was released from prison.
Thanks America,
more proof that women dont matter in this country.
The more we fight for equality
The more hated we become

Take me to The woods
This hip modern world is not my place
Its filled to the brim with absolute hate
We judge and argue over a simple opinion
Its almost like we refuse to agree
All these hateful comments online
so proud you must be
You proved to the world you're ever so cool
This modern world is filled with fools
The earth is slowly dying
Wars continue to rage
You'd think we'd ban together
We are a " Christian Nation" after all
I thought you christians believed in peace?
Instead you're targeting gays and spreading more hate
Ahh even as a child i could see
this world was never meant for me

Money buys security
Money can't buy happiness?
Then you must have a lot
You say Money isn't everything?
Ill take that bet
You must of never been poor
You live on my salary , I'll live off yours

Read More“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” - John 15:13. Let’s honor the fallen, and our active military. Together. Picture credits go to MVAT Foundation. 🇺🇸 #pod #military #heroes #america #mirakee #writersnetwork @mirakee. @writersnetwork
THE FALLEN THAT STILL RISE
Heroic, brave, inspiring
These words undoubtedly describe our fallen soldiers
But they are so much more than these words could describe
They have opened so many doors
So that we as a nation could soar
They learned the fragility of life
Realizing what it meant to strive, survive, and thrive
In a world where freedom is earned
By the blood of those who love it most
It is because of their sacrifices that we stand
The liberties that became law in our land
Let freedom ring around the globe
Let the hearts of the hurt spring hope
And let’s never forget the price
Of those who made the ultimate sacrifice
So that we could have something of a paradise

The ladder (is broke in America )
Poverty,
it shakes me
Constant worry
I'll never be free
I work long hours
With minimal pay
Will it always be this way?
Will i ever hear crickets instead of gunfire
Will i ever be able to lay in the grass
Is it too late
Is this concrete jungle forever my fate?

Poems of the End (Pt. 1)
Every day, in the corners of my heart and mind
I drown in the inevitable flood that has yet to
Befall this nation.
I know what is coming and the following atmospheres.
I wake up and within minutes, the paranoia,
The dark presence looms and lurks,
Pacing back and forth thru my body
Like a starved tiger.
I know, for sure, one day we will see the
Systematic destruction in the offices and
In the streets beyond our windows.
People will be killing people and angry mobs will burn fires
Using what they stole from raiding your house.
Your sons, brothers and fathers will be blacklisted as terrorists, prosecuted, executed.
Mothers and daughters will fear for their lives
Only to be beaten, raped and killed before our
Eyes.
The veil is being lifted but
Mine was disintegrated long ago.
I have no internal peace anymore.
I live every day with a subtle smile
Portraying I am of stable mind and lifestyle.
But deep down, in those corners, before
That tiger,
I have already seen and done horrible things
During the flood,
To make sure my family does not have
Harm or death befall them.
Everyday, I wage war within myself regarding
Sanity and scenarios yet to come.
Deep down, I am fucking terrified.
So, if you see me out and about with a stressed brow and a lost gaze of thought,
Just know I am preparing for the future
Of horrors that you haven't a single clue of.
I envy all the "normal" people around me.
So grotesquely oblivious and blissfully ignorant.
Because one day, our cute little snapshot
Of comfortable modern America,
Is going to be blindsided by
Death, Blood, Ash, and Fire.
Quit simply put,
I am deeply fucking disturbed.
I've seen my prosecution and death
A thousand times, already.

( OH MAMA AFRICA ! )
( Oh Mama Africa! )
Where lie the problems and the solutions?
The educated and the enlightened who keep quiet while silently watching the predicaments like frightened Owls?
Or the hungry leaders who keep prowling and looting the resources meant for the proles ?
( Oh Mama Africa! )
On mental health issues and mental toughness
All they care about are the mortal human bodies
That will one day decay and get lost in the cosmos
Neglecting the most important, the immortal human souls
No one care about your mental health, they just feed you carbohydrates
Not knowing there is big fire burning inside the minds of the big guys and girls
You fought all the internal demons that are trying to bring you to your knees
If one day you let your tears out, and cry ones, twice, or thrice before you continue the unending internal battles
They say " Come on big guy/girl ! Don't embarrass yourself and the big guys/girls, only the weak minded cries
They don't know : “People cry, not because they're weak. It's because they've been strong for too long", not sometimes but all the times
So you suppresses your emotions away from them, because those emotions have no values in their eyes
They have no idea that your emotions and your tears came from strength and from the warrior mentality that you posseses
( Oh Mama Africa! )
Had we known any better
We would have been greater
And take care of our brothers and sisters more smarter
But Mama Africa when I want to move out of town to explore greatness, your sons and daughters say " So you are neglecting your family? Otherwise, stay closer"
"It's too dangerous outside, better safe in your own little town in that shelter"
But in the shelter it's size is smaller , and it's raining and leaking, I am catching fever
And no growth in comfort zone whatsoever
" Don't go to those gardens,
we were told by our ancestors their fruits taste bitter "
Some rules are meant to be broken, so I explore the gardens, I became an explorer
My God! I found out those bitter fruits taste better
And other many fruits taste more sweeter
( Oh Mama Africa! )
I wanted to marry, they said "Yeah but only in our little Town, no any place safer"
I grew up in that little town, not knowing the greatness of people like Alexander
The way of life, traditions and mentality of my town were all I ever knew, nothing newer
Until He came to my rescue, and sent me further
He say " Travel and see for yourself the nations and civilizations that were former "
Because traveling widens your horizons and makes you a good observer
Nothing much can you see if all your life you are an insider
Get out and tell me what it's like to look at your town from perspective of an outsider
"Is your judgment the same?", No my judgement is more objective, because now I am more of an observer
( Oh Mama Africa! )
Would you forgive me for not knowing any better?
I have this autistic sister
Spending every penny of our earnings out of love for her to get better
Taken to gazillion of times to traditional healer and Islamic Center
Bombarding her with herbal remedies lacking medical trials and license whatsoever
She has been said to be possessed by the evil spirit, Jin, so said the insider
I began to believe what they said, until when I saw similar situation approached in different accurate ways by outsider
The outsider said to me " all her activities, symptoms and signs are busy telling you ' Look I am not possessed but Autistic female, so I am your Autistic Sister"
" That's why you are missing the prevention, diagnosis,and management of such cases, now what you gonna do that you know better?"
( Oh Mama Africa! )
" Yes my son, now what would you do about your sister's situation? , Answer the damn question"
I would study the case, and refer her to right medical institution
And pay more attention in the society for early diagnosis, management of similar or entirely different cases with their prevention
" Son, Is that all you learnt from the outsider, after all the given information?"
Mama, the outsider built special schools for people struggling with mental disorders for special intervention
They built homes for them, and say " Look beautiful come over here it's more safer in this accommodation"
Protecting them from the society that always attack them due to it's ignorance of clear picture of their condition
( Oh Mama Africa! )
" Ok now tell me what about your other brother who couldn't talk fluently like you, didn't you get inpatient waiting, thinking he was taking centuries, for him to express himself and his situation?"
" Wanting him to think, act and speak like he has no limitation"
" Tell me what the outsider said about his condition"
Oh the outsider said " Your brother has what we call 'Apaxia' for decades" , everything has level, stop calling anything you don't understand 'evil spirit'. Mama, you see Apaxia and Autism I never heard about them where I grew up. What a tribulation
The outsider further said : "Look, these beautiful humans, one has Autism, one has Apaxia, this is how to better their condition to avoid any further complication"
( Oh Mama Africa! )
" Glad to hear that, but what about woman, her freedom and liberty in this society ?"
" So many troubles she carries on her shoulders, what a tragedy"
" For years she has been married, but no sons, and daughters of her own, she is not lucky"
" The society put the blame on her saying she is infitile, that the husband should marry more women more fertile, that she shouldn't be shown any mercy"
But the outsider found out that the problem of infertility is not only arising from the woman, man's sperm count in many of the cases is the one faulty
Mama, I couldn't imagine the sadness and weight on your shoulder, hold on little more we are working to fix the predicament even though slowly. It's so bulky
( Oh Mama Africa! )
" My beloved Amin, my faith is being restored, I am proud of you, now I can rest in peace knowing freedom, justice, liberty, mercy and equality would be served in this society"12 1

Prejudice Racism
If white people are born racist does that just mean the rest of us are prejudice?
Black lives matter, the rest do not?
Divide the country by back and white.
Make it so we cannot unite.
Guest in my own house, music isn't a color. It's a sound.
Pit the rich against the poor.
Pit the white against the black.
Homosexuals versus the Super Straight.
Stuck in between the groups.
Christians made out to be the new evil.
Atheists are now the new God.
Which movement are you part of?
Cause in America if you aren't KKK you are Antifa?
