A beautiful thing!

So… it is a beautiful thing
when I breath and sing
songs
from my heart to my soul’s …
deepest floors and walls
to my intellect
where mystery dwells

it is a beautiful thing
when compromising
does not sting
with its bitter hypocrisy
when my bell ring
and I am found under mercy
to forgive myself and my doings
to uphold my soul and upbringings

it is a beautiful thing
when I firmly stand with what I say
yay or nay
to the notion, real price I pay
with out selling my day
with out changing my clay
the element that I’m made of
the aggressive that is not loaf

it is a beautiful thing
when I redeem today
lock the past in yesterday
WAS the day
my soul went astray
looking forward to tomorrow
holding my current
present

it is a beautiful thing!

What is in a Name?

so what is the motto here?
is it name or character ?
- you're not clear!

what is the indicator
beyond the visible ?
what is the foundation
beyond the 'feasible?'
the real identity is a fabric
that is embroidered like a lyric
--- of a poets soul -to his word
--- like a warrior to his sword…

we heard what you are saying
same old ‘cultural thing’
the attention you are paying
a void shallow ring

you either come and sing
to the diversity
to the unity
accepting the other being

calling them brothers and sisters
no matter how differs
their name from your
