“Old Bones” – Promote Yourself

I drag about resounding, clanging

Time has worn me down, as I creep about the cemetery

I see the dead in all their dullness

Dry, barren, arid from decay

 

Eye sockets like sunken craters

Darkness fills my orbits and cavities

I smile, the smile of death and silence

What was once alive is now retired

 

On a bed of worms and soil I lay

Nothing to feel, nothing to see, nothing to hear, nothing to taste

Oblivion calls me forth but here I lay

Old bones unable to act upon the signal

 

The graveyard beckons me stay a while longer

The gravedigger watches over me with diligence

The mist upon the graves glimmers at dusk

As we hibernate awaiting the call of the night

 

And upon the midnight I will arise

To drag and clang about the graveyard site

Stirring others to my call

My old bones creaking and groaning all the while

Under this-sky’s cover – Promote Yourself

Under this-sky’s cover

We are beneath

And You are above

Under this-sky’s cover

Without comprehension dare to speak of love

Under this-sky’s cover

Clouds obscure the sun

Under this-sky’s cover

Our eyes are filled while our hearts remain numb

Under this-sky’s cover

Speak of our good works with reward in hand

Under this sky’s cover

silent and struck with awe

glimpses in spirit

treasures above and beyond

being stored

over ruled…

the objections of an interloper

“under disguise”

who takes the blame? – Promote Yourself

who takes the blame?

the stars are not

to blame

they never are

they’ve got nothing to 

do with this,

the steps and the turns

he took

left and landed right

onto the particular spot

where she saw him

for the very first time.

History, the Status Quo and Prophesy – Promote Yourself

 
The Balkanization of Pangaea reflects many thousands of years of hostilities
and countless rivers of bloodshed … too much of it … unnecessarily.
 
Allah/God/Jehovah/Yahweh’s people are all of us notwithstanding that some of us
feel that they, and they only … enjoy … a ‘most favored’ … status.
 
Ever more disagreeably disagreeing in this tragi-comic ‘reality’, The Big Three,
Muslims, Christians and Jews … may yet reconsider … albeit … belatedly.
 
But history, the status quo and prophesy mitigate mightily against the possibility
of plurality … coming to the rescue of a sovereign-based … humanity.
 
The rise to notoriety of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the Islamic State and the Caliphate
via a magnetic attraction for disaffected misogynists … raises … stakes.
 
Alas, we homo sapiens (we auto-denominated ‘wise’ (wo)men), are, all too sadly
a seemingly … supremely stupid … and specious … species.

Lyrics for Better Tomorrow – Promote Yourself

A hope, a rise, a sun shine

This life, a prize, divine

 

Do love, live and forgive

Be loved, give, and believe

 

Ever shy, act wise and be nice

Cry, Rejoice and sacrifice

 

We get, forget, goes on

Easiest, toughest, don’t let down

 

Say; what you do

And do what you said

 

Quest, request, respect

Life just goes on perfect!

Storm – Promote Yourself

 

I delight in the sound of rain

and its staccato touch on my feet as the drops fall

independently.

 

They fall independently,

yet as a whole they create a shower of blessing and peace;

but only as one.

 

We can also touch other lives as individuals and make a significant difference,

but only when we work as one can there be an outpouring of blessing,

of victory.

 

The stillness is calming,

the occasional clap of thunder inviting

as it reminds us warriors of the ongoing battles we fight.

 

Lightning is the most miraculous of all

for even when all is dark and stormy,

light pierces the darkness.

 

Lightning takes the darkness by surprise,

and all is exposed.

Thunder follows,

alerting the warriors that the battle against evil

is one step closer to victory.

 

Exposing evil brings freedom.

 Life is a seed you watch it grow, you turn into a adult as you know, the world is fast and loud, are you feeling pround.                  Life goes on thick and fast, I wonder if you could ever ask, the world around us is very strange, its like a play on a stage.    ~                                                                    We learn things as we go, its like a play in a show.                                                          Life is a challange in life we take, so take charge and no mistake, life goes on full of joy, now be happy your got a new toy.            Patricia bourne wordpress  patriciabourne1@live.co.uk

MIRROR – Promote Yourself

I’ve looked upon this mirror

For many long gone years

It reflects back at me

My worries, my doubts, my fears

 

Strange until this morn

I never thought to reject

This odd relationship

Between woman and object

 

So this eve I took a rock

I flung it true and hard

The mirror it did shatter

And I was free, but scarred.
