Advancement Poetry

Angry

At apathy

Should I not be

Am I so horrid

That I cannot breathe

If I do

I shall spread my horrendousness

So

I cannot

Therefore

People are entitled to make sure

I never do

Is that me

Is that who I am

Am I that person

The one who harms

Yet never mends

The one who trips and falls

Then fails

But never gets up and starts again

Though I have tripped others

I never make amends

I never make course corrections

Or strive for enlightenment

Or make adjustments

I simply wallow in my depravity

Assuming all should be as I am

Am I that?

Am I those choices

No Sir No Ma’am

I am the opposite

When I fall

I pick myself up

I force myself to keep moving

If and when I can

Any way that I can

When I fail

I learn the lesson

Within the divine map

How it applies to me

Where the lesson leads

How it relates to where I am going

I don’t let go of integrity, or ethics

I learn and grow

Then adjust as best as I can

I hold myself accountable

So, no other human need to

Let alone know how

You don’t even know who I am

But when it is necessary

It comes from those who are my peers

But that’s hard to find now isn’t it

That’s okay

My oath keeps me on the correct path

If I should veer

My commitment to my oath redirects me

I believe in ethics, integrity, freedom, democracy, equality

I won’t stray from my core values

I am drawn to those who think and believe

In true freedom, democracy, and equality

I don’t worship humans

Or objects

Or spirits

Or memories

Or money

I commune with The I Am

The Creator

Of All That Is

Worship is communion

And communion is oneness

Oneness is hybridization

Which is to say

That becoming one with another

Creates something new

This is one of the greatest blessings

Anyone can live

To be one with anything

But to be one with the One

Is the blessing ALL can achieve

In fact

It’s what makes us feel alive

Even if we don’t know it

I must choose for myself

No one can walk my path

I cannot choose for another

I know not where they come from

Or where destiny has chosen

For them to go

We must all walk the path of life

In the way we were designed

If those who truly believe in a God

Understood God

Then all would know

We are all designed in perfection

How we walk the path of life

Is where we all fail

Humans are still growing

Learning

Maturing

Expanding

Humanity is young on the grand life scale

Humans have a lot to learn

Therefore, let us learn it

The path forward is one that allows for expansion

Growth

For consciousness to flower and bloom

Without such beauty

Such expression of the truest

Deepest nature of life

There is nothing but decay

Shall we watch the world blow away

Or shall we co-create

A new

Beautiful

Harmonic

Bliss

One that ALL can experience

One that heals, grows, nurtures, loves

Creates the high vibrational frequencies

Any living being would love to swim in

Let us choose life

Let us choose wisely

Let us choose to create bliss

Why should we waste the beauty of life and love

We are all born to

When we breathe the breath of life the first time

When we enter this world anew

Independent for once

With a new sense of what human is

No one has the right to take that breath from us

Nor does anyone have the right to force us to take it

We are what we choose

Who we choose

We are independent selves

We shall not accept domination

Or devolution

We embrace the expansion of human consciousness

If the whole of an elevated humanity can see

A clear path to elevation

I shall not be left behind

I see it, feel it, breathe it, live it, eat it, sleep it, express it

I shall be as I am created

I wasn’t born to be enslaved

I was born to shine

The sun is shining today

5/9/22

The first Monday in May

After Mother’s Day

The day for mother’s

When we honor those who brought us forth

Whatever means that may have been

Today we choose

We choose to keep choosing

We choose to honor life

We choose to honor health and wellness

We choose to honor equality

We choose to honor equity

We choose to honor Earth

We choose to honor climate reality

I choose with the majority of humanity

I choose what will elevate us ALL

Not just a select few of extremists

Xenophobes, terrorists, or abusive zealots

I choose me

I choose us

I choose the whole of us

To elevate together

Collectively

We choose to keep moving forward

To progress

To abundance

To health, wellness, love, equality, equity

We choose the advanced future

Awaiting us with open arms

We choose Class I on to Class III
