Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so.

God and the Fantastic Four
Prophet Mohammad is the first Leader of the Universe
He is as dear to God as His heart and the Best Friend of God
He is the symbol of God's innermost layer of glow
That is the glow of kindness, the white and silver glow
This glow has maximum density and minimum shininess
That's why we'll be able to stare at God's body
Prophet Jesus is the second Leader of the Universe
He is called the Soul of God because he is so dear to Him.
He is like the Son of God and is the symbol of God's body and peace
God has seventy thousand layers of His glow
Each layer has a different color and characteristic
Prophet Mary is like the Beauty and Purity of God
She is the third Leader of the Universe
And she is the symbol of God Herself
Imam Mehedi is the fourth Leader of the Universe
And he is the symbol of God's outermost layer of glow
That is the glow of pride and honor
It is the yellow, golden and invisible (black) glow
This glow has minimum density and maximum shininess

When I Read Your Name
when i read your name
it is enough to remind of all the arrogance of the world
it has become a symbol
of the woman who refused
to be with me
because she is used to being lonely
and rude
she has become an island to another island
they wish
to be glaciers, cold and floating, always wanting to move away
from everybody
only to sink when the sun shines
when the earth
warms itself and tells about the rule of life
warm sunshine
love of humanity
interdependence
cooperation
uni ty of the universe

Art of Symbol
Whether meaningful, or just beautiful
Whether easy to understand, whether full of mystery
A simply shape, or a detailed design
Symbol is created
From nature, from imagination
From dream, from experience
Whether adaptable, whether unchanged
Symbol is taken
For secrecy, for practical
The color, the code
To unite, to protect
Symbol is used
God's sign, devil's mark
Good luck, bad omen
A clear help, or a hidden warning
Symbol is interpreted

¤*Every Woman*¤!
Ever womans beauty
Comes from deep within
Covered in a dusty cloud
Of volcanic fierceness
Waiting to erupt
And flame to greatness
Every woman
Starts as a tiny grain
Of sand
Only to mature
To the most
Precious of pearls
Every woman
Is a symbol of protection
Poised in the grass
To strike her foe
Every woman
Is placed in a shell
Only to harden
And bloom
To brightness
Every woman
Is a light at the
End of the tunnel
Lighting her way
Through the darkness
Every woman
Is a symbol
Of a new beginning

The Symbol Of Trust
It is about you and me,
And it is about lust and love;
But where is the symbol of trust?
It is about a boy and a girl,
And it is about a man and a woman;
But where is the symbol of trust?
Allegations and manoevres,
But a better classroom will make the difference!
For today i have met you.
Who is telling the truth and, who is telling the lie?
For i am only human and do make mistakes at times;
But where is the my lover to satisfy me?
There is no pity in war!
And you are fighting bullets with stones;
But, where is the love that you promised me?
It is about the mind of peace and the mind at war,
And it is about you and i on this love;
But where is the symbol of trust?
It is about the world that we live in,
And it is about the lust of the people than love;
But where is the symbol of trust?
Now i know where this world is heading towards.

Whether he admits it or not, a man has been brought up to look at money as a sign of his virility, a symbol of his power, a bigger phallic symbol than a Porsche.

Symbol of love
When you and your wife had your baby, he became the ultimate symbol of love that you two share.
He represents a love that will stand the test of time and that shines brighter than a flare.
Some people think that wedding rings are the symbol of love between a man and his wife.
But wedding rings are just pieces of metal and they can't touch the symbol of love that comes from this tiny life.

Bluebird
Bluebird take me on your wing
Teach me how to fly
Teach me how to sing
Bluebird, guardian of my soul
Inside everybody
Is a story to be told
I came in from the cold
When I found someone
Strong enough to bear
The strain of our existence
And troubles everywhere
But time heals
And I know youll be there... ooh
Bluebird a symphony in flight
Symbol of the dawn
Symbol of the night
Ill try with all my might to be your brother
Always there for you
Mother (mother, mother) knowing what to do
And farther than anyone has flown
Courage to spread your wings alone
And who will help me?
Bluebird
Bluebird stranger to these shores
I look into your eyes
Have you been here before
Take me through the door to heaven
And show me
The treasures that you keep
The magic of the sky
And the beauty of the deep
And Ill do what I have to do
To be one of the chosen few
Fly anywhere with...
You, bluebird
Bluebird, bluebird (yeh)

Symbolic Gesture
A symbol has been born, of vitality,
Offering the world the chance to bind.
Bonds of luxury are acting like flowers
Of every colour, of every degree.
The world has surmounted the role
Of protector, protection is the symbol.
A symbolic gesture has actuated the real
Demand for authority to be exact.
The exact aims of a generation are upon us,
Their fences are of wood, wooden bricks.

Art does not imitate, but interpret. It searches out the idea lying dormant in the symbol, in order to present the symbol to men in
such form as to enable them to penetrate through it to the idea. Were it otherwise, what would be the use or value of art?

Ultimate Sacrifice
A woman giving birth
Replenishes Mother Earth
Mother Nature’s humanity and myriad mirth
Destruction of Life by bombs and war
The universe will always abhor
Annihilation, war’s consummate whore
The stars cry innocent blood galore
Bodies of blood from shore to shore
The death of Life by bombs and war
A woman birthing Life
The Ultimate Sacrifice
Nothin man-made can suffice
The female impetus-the incomprehensible birth-rite
The Ultimate Sacrifice
A Woman giving Life

A Woman's Heart
A heart of a woman, a heart where other hearts are made
A heart we run to when we are confused and afraid.
A heart where beauty keeps its secrets of sublime
A heart which survives the woes of pernicious time
A heart that beats the blood of truth
A heart, the symbol of love and loves proof.
The heart of our women, the heart of our mothers
The heart of our sisters, the heart of our brothers.
The mother heart, which creates all life
The mother heart which empathizes all our strife
A vessel in the heart of God
A vessel we steer through the struggles of life with; our immaculate rod.
The heart of woman

Symbolized
There is a symbol,
On everything you claim you own.
There is a symbol.
Stamp on everything in this life.
Everything is marked.
And highlighted by a brand,
Nearing closer to the forehead...
Of your fellowman.
And you leave your world unpure?
'Let no man worhip any gods before ME? '
Said He.
The Almighty.
And many have replaced Him in their lives,
To deny it but are quite...
Symbolized!

Effervescence Of Flaming Incense
All manifestation is an approximation,
a symbol, of the deeper metaphysical
meaning and being behind it, thus the
dance - the sultry but stylised tango -
is a symbol of spiritual communion,
regeneration through reconstitution
of different energies, transcending
confines of physical existence in the
effervescence of flaming incense
Delight and joyous movement in an
eternal perpendicular movement of
seeking and finding - engaging and
escaping in continuous flight towards
the magical realms beyond the path
of the sun within the ever-expanding
universe - which is only accessible to
ecstasy, the wise insight experienced
by the wondering human spirit…

Earth Is Not A Commodity To Waste
It is sad to see,
All of humanity being destroyed by greed.
It feels hopeless to witness,
Nature making attempts to convince Earth's inhabitants...
Without them protecting it with concern,
All life as it is known...
Will be eliminated with this one lesson to be learned:
~Ungrateful and foolish are those in conflict who believe,
They can live here on Earth to choose destruction as they please.
And still live to receive benefit.
By the fostering to maintain their sustained ignorance of it.~
Earth is not a commodity to waste as if it is easy to amputate,
What is disliked by the few who ignite division.
A thinking and feeling Earth could care less,
Who amongst those leeching to feed upon it...
Profess to be better than the rest.
It is here to endear and provide for all of its creations
And if it decides all life should end...
So be it of its own making with a choice to do to accomplish.
And yes...
Those with kept and divisive religious beliefs,
Will have nothing to do with Earth's decision.
No faked praise is going to save lives.
Earth can be a 'mother' in these situations.
With a strictness descending upon those given.
~You better recognize! ~

Elements, Death And Life
Love is like a rose
Rose is the symbol of love
Death is like a wind
wind is the symbol of fading away
Life is like a tree
It grows til it dies
Hate is like a fire
The fire grows intill it hurts somone
The symbol of life is a tree
Trre will burn of hate
The wind blow the hate away
Untill it comes backs
Death is not the opesit of life
Death comes in many natural ways
Like this poem
Like this message
Love is like a drug
You get addicted
You will get burned
At the same time it is good to keep
This love, this hate
The life, the death
Fire, earth, wind and water
Elements of creation

The Cross
The cross is a symbol,
It reminds us of Jesus and all that he did for us,
All the things he sacrificed for us,
To open the gates of heaven for us,
For us not him,
God Gave his only true son so we could go to heaven to find ever lasting happiness,
To live with the creaters of life,
It is a symbol that shows us even in the darkest of places there is light.
