Until I took a photograph

of my shadow

I felt a sense of greatness

When I posted my shadow on the wall

Photography is like that…

~The Desert Scorn~

image

image

image

image

image

The brazen scorn of the desert

Can seem punishing

Although we must ask ourselves

Is truth a punishment

If we choose to look its way

There’s a certain beauty

Even in the face of shame

The sun’s wrath to some

May be seen as a curse

But to others it may be a gift

In our deepest hour of despair

~In Living Color ~

image

Color eases our perceptions

It reveals all truth o itself

Unlike a black and white photograph

That persuades us to analyze

What we have envisioned

Its message to be

Then when we are convinced of it

We awake the next day

Only to find that it has changed

While we were sleeping

In living Color…

Alone I watch the desert skies

Wondering where you are and how you arrived…

image

I continue to wait for you to fly and rest from your journey

image

Like you used to when you were tired of flying against the wind

This time you’re really flying high

You have probably forgotten

where you are and where you’re going

I’m sure by now that you cannot find

Your way home

Yet I wait

Why…

HIS JOURNEY

image

He travels many miles.

He stops only to find the birds have eaten the crumbs he dropped along the way.

The countless meals he ate in silence.

He knows now that there is no map to return.

He finds a new road.

He finds himself as one with isolation.

Peace reassures him that,

He is on the right path.

I was in the middle of finding

Something so profound

Scattered in my mind

~THE SKY IS FALLING ~

My arms are tired from holding up the sky

It’s falling and I can no longer abide

Earthquakes break like dominoes

Mountains shake and crumble in humility

I can no longer outrun the earths collide

Ships recklessly pollute our seas

The ocean had once washed our shores

But things have changed dramatically

As waves explode upon her chest

Infecting sand upon the land

As reckless captains do command

Purging toxins she now bleeds

Disease cries from sea to shore

Fierce winds fuel a world on fire

Our men are turned into war machines

I cannot look another day

For when I do my heart breaks in-two

It cracks and my faith pours out

I need a miracle this very hour

Take this cup from me I pray

Heal our scars

Cleanse our souls

And Lord, one more thing before you go…

The skyis falling and you see

This burden is too heavy

Will you hold it up for me?

~Just believe~

image

Another night slips in with uncertainties.

A world on fire burning with lies.

A nation torn apart by greed.

Thunder rumbles… dividers they conquer.

Do not attend their battle.

Turn your head away.

Do not look to the left nor the right.

Look straight ahead and believe.

Winds will blow that you cannot control.

But you can adjust the winds in your sails.

It is only a distraction and a wicked scheme.

Its purpose is to steal your peace and love.

Then break your heart and steal your dreams.

Continue to believe in love.

This is of the utmost importance in this final hour.

Remember this night before you sleep.

Everything is going to be exactly the way it is supposed to be and, God has a plan for your life.

You are loved beyond measure.

And soon you will be set free.

Be still…

Believe…

~We Need Change ~

   

image

Nothing changes if nothing changes.
I’m not sure if I can express what’s in my heart. All I know is that it feels like broken glass and it ripping me a-part.
A-part of me wants to be set free. Yet a part of me is afraid.

I read and search beyond the scenes, behind the stage where lies are practiced to deceive. A media without  consciousness, lusting for blood, death and power, for anyone who might interfere.

Many are willing to be sacrificial lambs. Eager to please, in exchange for popularity and exceptance. Willing to slay their own, for monetary gain. They sleep well, and moan in their secret dreams.

Many are unaware.  They are trapped, and are intimidated into sharing a feast with hungry wolves that duel upon their breast, and leave them feeling defiled.

Many know, as I, but do nothing to stop them. We write, read, paint, create, and photograph to excape. The ugliest truths that were ever told.

We read political propaganda, and know it’s a lie, as it eats like a cancer into our consciousness, and rapes our minds. Creating a great divide, between the truth, and the red tides of death that crush our hearts and silence our screams!

I hate how I feel! I just want to run as
long as it takes, to stop feeling, and knowing all that I do. It is so sorreal!

Why am I paralyzed?

Why are you?

Why do I wait for the slaughter?

Why do you?

When will I stand?

When will you?

When will I fight?

When will you?

When will we take back our land?

When it’s too late?

The time has come and…!

Very soon it will be gone…!

~LAST NIGHT~

I went to bed last night

And I fell asleep

I fell…

And fell…

Into my dream absent of time

When Your heart was free

Your spirit was kind

Serenity and peace

Set you apart

I was frightened

I tried to escape

I screamed…)))))

And when I awoke

You were standing over me

Holding a mirror so I could see

Dreams…

If I cry out in Your Name

Would You hear my burden

And take away their pain

Only You know what they’ve been through

Will You hold and protect them

Your mercy I know it’s true

I need a miracle this very hour

Grant them a vision

So they might see

The love they long for is endless in Thee

Touch their hearts and heal their minds

The price You paid was not in vain

You conquered death

So that they might live

I cannot watch them die another day
Father I lay them in Your arms

With my one last breath

I turn my head and walk away

Where is Heaven…

image

As I consider the heavens in my sky

I ponder as to where

This place is we call heaven

My thoughts propose

Surely an impossibility

I sit in silence for a moment in why

Aware the greatest distance

Is between my head and my heart

Awaiting an answer…

An aura of heaven confirms it is real

Peace encircles a doubtful heart

The breath of angels wisps

In a breeze caressing my soul

Heaven is how you feel

When everything else is so unreal

~Moon Beams~

Moon beams a bequeath of vision

As the night unfolds

Elimination of fears unknown

A colored space of light

In a blackness of time

Do not be fooled by what you feel

Sometimes our fears are so unreal

Perceptions of dark maybe

Is an absence of light

Dark is only a limited reflection

Of its ability to absorb

A mirrored perception

Do not fear in the darkest hour

Faith is the substance of things unseen

Follow

Him

And

just

believe

It’s

A photograph is a feeling about an awareness of something inside you that you always wanted to know, yet the more you feel it, the less you  understand it, but long to…

And you continue to capture particles of time and awareness of the moment

Dragon profiles a Stereotype

image

image

Profiling isn’t a good idea

Do you know why

It could change the way humans identify

I am not St. George’s horse

As referenced in the book

“Folklore of the Dragonfly.”

I never even knew him

They would have you believe
I am a devil horse that flies
Oh my…

The romanian word for devil is “drac” but “drac” also means dragon in romanian

Because of all this mixed up stuff  my name translated as Dragonfly

Confusing right? Just another way to stereotype

Now I cannot tell you how many times this made me cry

Blue Dasher a preferred name of I

But I had no say in scientific decide

My kingdom is in Animalia

I have class of Insecta

My family is Libellulidae

I could go on
but why

The simple truth is this

My mother loves me

She named me Blueray
I am known as the blue dasher

I help with insect control

Especially mosquitoes as some of you already know

Now that you know the truth maybe next time before you stereotype

You’ll think twice…

image

I used to scream so loud in the dead of night but no one could hear me

I would never turn out the light in hopes that someone would find me

Memory of a winter’s night my heart was so cold it had turned to ice

In summer it thawed but it had been hardened so long it turned to stone

I would tell you my heart was so sad and that it hurt so bad but that would not be true

My heart was silent for my spirit had died

And the only thing I know is

Stones can’t lie

The bridge I must cross…

image

Sometimes I hide from what I know to be true for it frightens me

My journey insists I cross a bridge that I rather not cross

Like a child’s uncertainty walking by the light of the moon

So my thoughts intrude in my clouded mind persuading me to higher ground

image

I must cross or I will surely die

A bitter death of a spiritual kind

Intuitively I am painfully aware that I mustn’t haste

A day dream becomes my reality
demanding I move from my comfort zone

I am afraid…

What is on the other side…

Can you tell me

Or maybe I could continue

To hide…



No
I
Want
To
Be
Alive

Growing old is mandatory

Growing up is optional…
