Awareness or some approximation thereof (Page 4 of 5)

we move too fast to examine

the ever present moment

caught

in wirlpools of thought

use their opposite to create the balance

when the surface is calm

the depth of the ocean can be seen

re-focus awareness to achieve

an absolute deviation from the mean

the feminine energy is virgin

the masculine energy is free

make the energies into one

to achieve the synergy

matter is just a wave

we are not a slave to the grave

go deep within

without chagrin

the entrance fee is waived

BTW Nexus,  I love your interpretation of my poetry.  Your heart is healthy and vibrant I can tell. 

I don't yet have anything further to add from this level.  However, I found something I wrote 5 years ago.  There was a thread on another forum where they were doing some freestyle rap.  It was cool but then they started getting into race.  So I wanted to add in my dos pesos.  And if you know rap then you know it's mostly egotistical so I added in some of that for flavor.  I kind of wanted to show they could go to another level.  Anyway, I offer it here just to show the contrast.  You should be able to pick up what was being said that this was in response to.

It's sad that your rhymes can only diss

You got the intellect but when you shoot you miss

We should know by now it ain't black versus white

But they got us locked in that mentality

Why is it always the poor that fight

I'm sick of all the brutality

If only the poor would unite

Then we could see the reality

But we are divided by sight

Religion, sex and ethnicity

We have the power but they don't want us to know

They'll kill a few thousand just for show

Then on the streets they sell us blow

A war on drugs they create

We go from chalk line to slate

It's a war on us they made

Will we allow that to be our fate

All we can do is hate

They bring out another can o' raid

Sorry you didn't make the grade

But the memories fade

And we're doomed to repeat

Like our parents did and our children will

Is this how we use our skill

There's only one way out but will it ever take place

A complete and total unity of the human race

Like Neo I'm going to clear the block

My mind is my weapon I don't need a glock

FBI, CIA, what the hell does it matter

Turn the lights on and watch the roaches scatter

It ain't black versus white

It's rich versus poor

That's the true score

Put you knees to the floor

Sell your soul to the highest bidder

What for, another cold spam dinner

Bend over but don't complain

You know what happened to your brothers before

They were slain

A bullet to the brain

Did they die in vain

Bow to your gods in the ivory tower

Why did you give them all your power

Does it taste sweet or does it taste sour

What will you do in this final hour

You best not spit, you better swallow

In your own self image you wallow

Does your soul feel hollow

All you can do is follow

There's no one left to take the lead

There's no hero for tomorrow

You're looking for a box like you were a mime

While my rhyme spans space and time

My shyte runs deep to the molten core

I'll rip a hole through your soul like a matador

I can roll through the depths of hell

Or rise to a place no human heart dwells

I rise from the ashes like phoenix reborn

My words like jewels on kings' crowns adorn

I cut like a raptor

Down to the bone

This is the final chapter

You better phone home

Let it be known my rhyme hits like a cyclone

I'm in the zone on my throne of stone

I've more than shown that I own the unknown

You thought I was done

But it's not over yet

I'll rise like the sun

And not break a sweat

All you humans can do is worry and fret

You crawl back in a hole and try to forget

If you can just open your eyes

I'll aid and abet

I know the light is bright

I know it's flight or fight

But there is only one way for you soul to ignite

It tears like a dog bite

Cuts like a knife fight

Swallows you whole like a deep ocean great white

So open your eyes and open your mind

You think you know but you're still flying blind

Like a rolex on the streets of New York

You can only fake

Let loose and feel the torque

Like a California earthquake

Don't mistake you gotta shake yourself awake

If you fall back to sleep

You're a tenderloin steak

Sheer brilliance z3..  Right between the eyes.  I hope they get it.

Fo shizzle mi nizzles.  I'm glad you all enjoyed it.

NOW!
