Man of Purpose

I am a man, 

I am with purpose

But none,


misplaced I am,

Like a random letter 

that forms a word in a sentence 

a sentence in a paragraph,

of a yet to be completed tale


smuggled abroad

I am illegal cargo

comfort I forgot along time ago

for the greener pasture

I submit to this capture!


Shall I find?

My purpose then,

or will it be peril...


here I am now,

still in transit

where I go, I cannot see it

yet incessantly I seek it


I am a man, 

I am with purpose

But none

Are you looking to see or are you seeing to look?

you can never tell

you have to look,

to understand, 

to got to look

stare deep into the eyeballs

unfrazzled by the colors and contours of the cornea

nor the shimmering of the iris

or the pupils' precariousness 


are you looking?

to see or

are you seeing to look?


you have to look,

you cannot say it


stare through to the iris

build your tale

create your narrative

meticulously captured,

through the lens of the eyes.


are you looking?

to see or

are you seeing to look?

eventually

.... eventually,
you will see the darkness fade,
you can feel the madness dying...
desperately clutching on 
... to whatevers' left black inside but,

the light within you is immense!
Fired up and astonishingly intense,
you have been courageous in your offence,
brave and absolute in your defence!

you can see the light,
suddenly you can win this fight,
everything you did, was right,
there it is before your sight,
victory outright,
.... eventually

Haki iwe Ngao!

Society is bleeding,
it's arteries and veins...
severed!
It's crying out loud,
and yet, unheard,
ti's getting dizzy, losing blood!

... passing out!

so they  steal and...
get away with murder,
hiding spoils of plunder
thugging and running_
this system they set!

pawns in a game of chess,
check after checkmate,
you starved they ate!

taking and hiding,
their search is to snatch,
no more worms to catch,
not even the early bird
the egg did not hatch...
twas a sunny side up!

these that cut society,
now want us to seat for tea
because again they see,
another term to seat,
with promises full of deceit!

masters of division,
with words of manipulation,
thriving in dis-union,
inflicting suffering
... while,
watching from the distance of 'truth!'

are we fucked?

I am afraid so!
everything is changing!
living has become overwhelming... 
everything straining, 
each breathe draining,
every morsel of surviving,
we are slipping,
we are falling
the darkness is erasing,
all that is existing,
like it was nothing! 

Like we are, nothing! 

I want to quit!
in the middle of my shift,
pack a bag and leave!
there is nothing more to give,
neither to, receive! 

it is so sepulchre,
like a boring sculpture,
lost in it's culture,

you can tell, 

from that yell, 

all is not well!

yet here we dwell, 

like a cast spell, 

imprisoned in our own cell! 

protect your head!

 

you got to...

put on the Armor of God!

coz we at war!

fighting the 'Wows' of the devil!

 

the darkness attacks your head!

and lets your heart deal with it!

vicious battles...

 

stabbed by 'supposes'

dying from ‘maybe's and ‘what ifs’!

sleeping and not asleep,

waking up tired, not rested,

unceasing  fighting,

with the shadows,

... of 'I think' and 'I heard'

wrestling 'imaginations'

unaware of  dark machinations

from the  fallen one!

 

cutting off your head,

leaving you with poisoned feelings!

 

brother, sister;

it is with our mind that we serve God!

 

we fight!

we protect our head and,

not live your life,

over heart things,

instead; head things!

 

bring not...

a heart experience to a head fight!

live not, a headless life.

 

the serpent,

this fallen degenerate,

is a thief!

 

no robber, robs an empty house!

 

protect your head!

 

this cursed one,

is a malignant outcast,

with  toxic fangs,

and  a pungent stench,

out to get you!

 

stand up!

evacuate not!

from your turf,

your portion from God, since...

you were given already,

things you are yet to possess!

tip tap toe

twist and turn and turns to a run then runs,

out there over there where their they're,

gyrating oscillating so confusing is the turning,

some going 
some returning 
some sticking 
some  stuck... 
gropping in the dark, caught stark!
some don't back!
