haiku and short poems

I was inspired to write a few poems in haiku, its amazing that in very few words your can say so much. haiku are written in 3 lines with 5 syllables in the first, 7 in the second and 5 in the third.

places you will never go
mars, saturn, venus
the queendom between my thighs
atlantis, kemet...

virgin (haiku)
My mouth will not say
quality o'er quantity
but these walls can talk

Valentine's Day
Months from now, i trust
my heart will race this steady speed
I pray we make it

revolt (haiku)
Che, Huey, Malcolm
yes I have read their bios
but whats your story

fun house mirrors (haiku)

close your eyes slowly

reveal you to the real you

open them, vanish

heaven (haiku)

gold streets, pearly gates

no tears, no stress, no desires

is heaven boring?

wisdom (haiku)

Sage, choices... advice

from my mouth, the pain cuts, GOD!

these teeth came too late

a kiss (haiku)

electric currents
conducted through lips that touch
love, what an event

i kiss to love
if love is to follow
a kiss is to lead
love is a seed
God the Sun, Goddess the water
water us
because we are the trees
let us bloom freely

A kiss pt 2 (not haiku)
breaks a seal
seals a deal
deals a fate
a kiss is a lot of things but never fake

Habits

they say it takes 21 days to form a new habit
Well, I've known you for 42
Twice the time it takes to make you apart of my brain wave pattern
My thoughts explode then scatter
When I'm with you
I trip over words like drunks trip over curbs
Because your energy alters wave lengths
I may not make much sense
Since I am unable to articulate
I am only able to say...
I am only able to say???
Damn, to forget English, it took 21 days
habits
habits
habits
you are the first thought upon waking
this scares me because its only been 42 days
and these thoughts have become habits
it's too late to not have hopes
you are already a habit, that I don't care to break
smokers, nail biters, liars... they have theirs
and, well, I have you.

incomplete poems and thoughts...

weather
i played it so cool, he said that i was cold
but i still posess the fire of truth
and the sweat of love

God is
God is Goddess
She told me over a cup of green tea
She said i made you in the image of me
and if you don't believe look at my earth
and you to my dear can give birth
never underestimate your worth
I won't be found in church
I am always with in your reach
I am at your fingers, and underneath your feet
You can't feel me move because you rotate with me...

TXT
we could fall in love
possibly fall in hate
but we'd never know if we dont conversate
and i kno that aint a word
but in textin there's no spell checkin
and sometimes i cant understand what your saying
because it gets lost in traslation...
thumb to key pad
he's never heard me laugh
LOL can't speak on it's behalf
TTYL

Feminism vs. Goddess Consciousness Part 2 (Wisdom)

"It is no small thing to note that Wisdom is feminine," writes Rabbi Rami Shapiro in THE
"The original language of texts, both Hebrew and Greek, make this very clear: Hebrew Chochma and Greek Sophia are both feminine nouns. The authors of the Wisdom books took this gender specificity seriously and envisioned Wisdom as Mother, God's consort and bride, the Divine Feminine through which the masculine God fashioned all creation."


So, one day while reading Proverbs in the Bible, I discovered that wisdom is personified as a female. The two verses that stuck out were, Proverbs 7:4, Say to wisdom, " You are my sister," And call understanding your nearest kin." In another chapter wisdom is referred to as she again,
Proverbs 4:8-9, Exalt her and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver to you.

Not too long after this biblical discovery I had the honor of visiting a mosque in Turkey called Hagia Sophia, which means Divine Wisdom. Sophia is a Greek female name which means wisdom.

It made me think what would make wisdom yin/feminine attribute. Perhaps because wisdom is nurturing, causes growth, enhances safety and stability. I guess to fully understand why the bible whose god is male, decides to refer to wisdom as female, one would have to have a clear definition of wisdom. It's also important to acknowledge the difference between knowledge and wisdom.

"There is wisdom in Nature and knowledge in Scholarship. Nature teaches us what works and what doesn't work. Knowledge teaches us how to use our senses, how to observe nature, how to evaluate it, how to record life lessons, and how others before us did the same. We first learn wisdom in life by experience, (usually painful experience) and then as we grow older, we recognize wisdom in life by example. "

I felt to need to share this as it fits the theme of a previous post http://raelostandfound.blogspot.com/2008/10/feminism-vs-goddess-consciousness-part.html. Since we are God/dess children we do have access to the divine wisdom. But I think its extra special that wisdom is a she :-)

U too old for that!!!

Now I know with age, wisdom doesn't always follow, but damn! You are too old for that! I'm defining grown as anything over 25. 25 isn't magical age but you've lived long enough to know better!

1. Grown men with cornrows. What the hell for??? While I'm at work a man who had to be in his 40's came in the office with cornorows. He looked a damn ridiculous. Hell, If you're over 19 loc it or cut it.

2. Older men who club frequently. I do party, a lot. But i am 22!!! Every time i go to a particular club there is this old ass dude in their (same man) . He gotta be in his late 30's early 40's. I'm not saying 30's or 40's is old but... it is too old to be clubbing frequently. If you over 27 you shouldn't be hanging out where people 5-10 years older then you are hanging out. After my 25th bday i will not be in hanging out in the same places i did 18-24. New age bracket, new recreation.

3. Grown women dressing like each other when they go out. That was cute when you were 14 but ten years later its a little strange.

4. Grown women at Ray J, Omarion or Bow Wow concert. Unless you are chaperoning or attending with some under 21.

5. Eating food with sprinkles. HAHAHA that was for someone specifically. :-)

6. Grown people blaming the world for your problems. PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY!

7. Grown people who think nigga/bitches aint shit. We are what we attract the most. And you are too old to be blaming other people.

Ok that's it for now.
