Whistling whispers that Have a holding effect on hearts Imploding with impossible passions Subliminal susurations sizzling in Promises provoquing powerful feeling Embedded in empires of whispered words Replying to curiosity currently conversing quietly.

Corruct politicians commit crimes Overlooked for their power trumps Reality, facts, fairness, equality, Remembering that by creating Unprecedented division, depravity, you Part unity of the people whose humanity Tends to be set aside for peer pressure Imposing the rule of the deceiver Operating on manipulating those weaker Needing corruption to be rampant while they plan.

Starlight
The darkened night sky is populated By bright living stars that brightened All our nightmares, giving us the radiance That bundles us in a cocoon of confidence.
Such shimmering wonder shines into your soul, Adding hope, optimism, an irrefutable scowl That repudiates all pessimism, darkness, And the need to succumb to its insidious whispers.
The murmur of such powers is devastating If not fenced and bound. Placing It in a securely locked chest, that is impossible, To open when your will inters it with all that’s enjoyable.
Revere the wondrous effect of shooting star That lightens your burdens and shines a spotlight Upon all that’s good, wondrous, loving, bright, And endlessly supporting your strengths from within.

Patient time sidles around knowing, Knowing that you’ll eventually learn, Learn that warriors full of brute force, Force that turns into violent regret, Regret that eats away your happiness, Happiness that dissolves as its transient, Transient time comes and goes, waiting, Waiting patiently like the intelligent warrior, Warrior who strategizes using patience, Patience for the right information and time, Time that’s right to act not go in unknowing, Unknowing the dangers, pitfalls sown By the hands of enemies whose joy, Joy will be untamable at your fall, Fall from grace, for you forgot that time Time and patience have always been chief survivors.

Silver light shines so bright, Reflects on your surface in a fight To blot out the blight Of oppressive night.
As it shimmers on the lake At night, it dances with shadows, fake In their adulation of your stake In everything that’s ensconced in black.
Its silver sheen is reminiscent Of the clouds’ silver lining that bent The impossible to their heaven sent Hope, that relies on faith not being absent.

The binary opposition symbols in life have Somewhat helped identify that you gave Thought to the ‘other’ by describing The ‘self’ through an opposing
Lense not unlike the way we divide Our characters with Yin and Yan hide The existence of otherness within That is masked and out of site, in a bin.
The tree of life is no different Then, the struggle within that’s bent On having ‘good’ win against ‘evil’, Knowing the oversimplification that’ll
Persuade the peridic nature of anger To cool with the calming breeze, paper, That hang onto the branches, safer, As emotions try to erode its beautifier
Of shades, hues of greens, pleasing To the eye, while knowing that changing From one state of emotion to another Is as fugacious as the flow of a timer
Set off too swiftly to linger On the abstinence of a greater Power that helps settle the struggle Making managing life easier than trouble.

Like the roots through which life Flows, fluctuates, and grows, flowers, Bushes, forests blossom with ease, protectors Of nature require no rewards in strife,
Drought, flood, or perfect weather, Kindness given without expectations Grows its own roots, foundations For the hereafter that require prayer,
Respect given without limits, Belief in the intangible, angels, Nature’s wonderment, peace fills Our hearts as we give and pits
Our disappointments against Harvesting morality’s seeds Granting Our harmony that pleads For compassion’s empathy, a breast
Shoulder you can rely on in the worst Times, for you’ve given freely And your reward comes in heavenly Support from all you’ve helped, the best
Conveyors of unrest, for they Request only your grain of kindness In a yield of pure emotion, bless The quay where you can rest every day.
