GRIM & SHADEY: CAN YOU HEAR IT?
Teaching the world to sing
Inspired by my journey for peace in a chaotic world~
As a poet and writer, this is one of my writings that is requested often. Written in mid-west dialect, this poem describes the illusion that human beings live by trusting in material things while separating human kind by belief systems that divide the human race.
As the world turns I hope your journey inspires & enlightens others, as I attempt to inspire you and keep you on your toes!
Let's go. CAN YOU HEAR IT?
POETIC MENTOR
GRIM & SHADEY...CAN YOU HEAR IT?
This world is going crazy
men, women, any race,
old and young both
amaze me
Is it where I’m from?.. Maybe
But things are looking kinda grim and shady
Hidden agendas on everybody’s angle
Got me looking around trying to figure out
Who’s out to strangle me
I’m feeling vibes tryin to untangle
Decipher who tellin' truth,
Who sellin' lies...
How many soldiers really died?
How many mothers really cried?
I find my truth is on the inside
where God speakin' to all ya’ll
Can you hear him?
He has many tongues
Reachin' Buddhist, Christians, Jews and
Muslims
See, I can hear 'em &
not too many pay'in attention
but if you slow up, it's not about religion..
or man's decision
We all can feel 'em... There is only ONE.
yet we run to materials
with spiritual collision
& IT IS DONE
mere confusion &
illusions...
Open your eyes and see what’s
Occurring around your space
Negative energy can easily replace
That spiritual place
We all love to embrace
I know you can feel it
I can see it in your face
So why is this world so crazy?
Isn't the world the people?
Is it just where I’m from? Maybe
But things are looking kinda grim and shady
What happen to that song..
“I love to teach the world to sing.?”
Or buy a coke..
Media advertising products as a hoax
Taught me to spend my money on a soft drink
Not that brotha that’s homeless and broke
My spirit was not at all provoked
By those lies…
I transferred in my mind,
It can only be provoked
by the righteously DIVINE
and that’s not a hoax…
God speakin' to all ya’ll
To everyone
I know you can hear 'em
He has many tongues
But there is only ONE
Will the world end?
or has it just begun?
Hell on earth
or is it a bless'n?
Do you live and learn
Or do you just get your lesson?
What’s the secret to death?
Is it so scary?
Return to the earth cremated or buried
Reincarnation, myth or truth?
Would I’d be better off as a savor tooth?
No money, no technology
Just the land and me
While humanity destroys my land and sea
Depleting all my resources as well
They got wood for sale
Water for sale
Veggies for sale
Fish on sale
Materialistic society goes to hell
We trust in the dollar bill,
No prayer in schools
money says E Pluribus Unum
No prayer, no church and state mix?
But then tell me who is this St. Nick ?
torture is just if it saves us
Is what you’re telling us?
But your dollar bill reads
"IN GOD WE TRUST"
Went right over and Bombed Iraq
“In God we trust” signs were bought by the packs
This world is going out of her mind
'amma sit back decipher it,
Try to find
A lesson while I’m learnin’
Stayin' away from hell
while I’m on earth burnin’
when the truth hurts
that divine intervention,
wants my full attention
Where I can go to that other dimension
Where peace runs deep in my spirit……
Can you hear it ?
Can you hear it?
