Foolishness is rarely a matter of lack of intelligence or even lack of information.

Saddened By The Lack Of It

Saddened by the lack of it.
Those without a reflective consciousness.
Those who elect to blindly have their way.
Without consulting with others.
Those who care less what others say.

Saddened by the lack of it.
Those who decide,
Only their opinions are legit.
Those who can not admit,
Their own limitations.

Saddened by the lack of it.
Those who express no empathy.
Or remorse shown to exist.
Those who sit in the midst of accusations.
Baiting and creating all aspects of conflict.

Saddened by the lack of their sense of humanity.
Yes!
We all should be saddened by this foolishness.
Since nothing that lives can afford this luxury.

Not Only Accepted But Endorsed

When one is revealed to have an intelligence,
Among others who are more interested...
In displaying an ignorance,
That entertains in delighting...
Acceptable foolishness.
Here can be found in environments like this...
Is a total absence of an accountable responsibility.
With an insistence that persists.

And those who appear,
To have acquired an 'intelligence'...
Are often dismissed as novelties.
In environments,
Where a lack of discipline and laziness...
Is not only accepted,
But endorsed as a reflection...
Of what a mindlessness can enforce to exist.

Remember This Lack of Conscience - 'For Maya Angelou'.

When time goes past and dithers not
One sees the blame that gathers moss
To feel akin with woe as one
I'll forgive myself and you to soldier on

Remember this lack of conscience when we meet
I was violated, raped and beaten within to provide a treat

Remember this lack of conscience when I get out
To see through with vision all I espy

Remember this lack of conscience which will know no bounds
To hideously transform love profound

Remember this lack of conscience when I am free
You will lose and you know me

Remember this lack conscience less you forget
That freedom is precious and not a threat

Remember this lack of conscience when the bars are bent
I will slip out into the depths of crass to vent

Remember this lack of conscience to come
The Devil has a new spawn and drum

Remember this lack of conscience gathering
To prove nothing but give a battering

Remember this lack of conscience wild
It has no remorse just like a child

Remember this lack of conscience like the Hawk
Which draws blood, looks on and gawks

Remember this lack of conscience with the Demon within
It's a Golem to clear the the Evil and get even

Remember this lack of conscience when you renege
The death of love can be ones grave

Remember this lack of conscience and tremor not
No fruit you bear or shall ever to care

Remember this lack of conscience that prevails
The trial is over and you have failed

Remember this lack of conscience and grow
To a woman that a man can know

Remember this lack of conscience that forgave
and now with Love sends you away


For Maya Angelou - ' Remember This Lack of Conscience'.

Lack of respect

Respect? Yes respect
Lack of respect
Lend us in hot oil
And now we are fried like vianas
Because we lack respect
Yes respect

Respect? Yes respect
Lead us to put our feet inside the packet
And look now
We have fallen so hard in the ground
Because we lack respect

We had foolish remarks
Asked personal question
And proved to the world how jealous we are
Because we lack respect
We questioned facilitator than scenario
How? Because we lack respect for our colloquies

Because we mesmerize twaddle
We are futile

Now Regarded As Threats

It was wrong to do from the very beginning,
To dismiss the foolishness with excuses to ignore it.
Now that foolishness has become a way of life,
With a tolerance to condone.
Those who had oppose the existence of it,
And the lack of respect with a void of discipline shown...
Today are themselves now regarded as threats,
To the booming medical industry.
And a determination being made to medicate everyone.

As Hurricane Sandy clearly demonstrated, there is a woeful lack of redundancy in the nation's health care facilities. However, take solace in knowing there are no lack of choices in those things the advertisers convince us should matter more. For example, right now, you can purchase at least five different varieties of perfume by Paris Hilton at your local mall so, even if you can no longer find a single hospital anywhere nearby, the good news is we live in a society where you'll never lack for options to smell good while you suffer in pain.

A Creature With A Diagnosis

is a reality check wall crack
sometimes takes years
to find what exactly they're suffering from

lack of time money confidence dreams
lack of people love intelligence please
should you meet one don't let them in
they're vampires sucking the best of your blood

helplessly devouring panic anathemic
self cursed epidemic
two faced features countenance shield
run run run away do not yield

The march of love

Love marches are not alike.
Who ambles to love withal?
With widows that lack sanction.
Who doeth love trot withal?
With youths that lack fear.
Who gallops it withal?
With paramours that lack patience.
Who stay love still withal?
With the old that lack response.

This Lack of Trust

this lack of trust,
from years of hurt and abuse
i try to let it go
but it's just no use
i get so confused
everything seems like lies
and not being able to trust
is one thing i despise.

this lack of trust
keeps me up all night
wondering, thinking..
should I give up or fight?
i want to believe
all the words that you say
i want to have faith
but it's been taken away.

this lack of trust,
i know it's upsetting,
but it's a direct result
of the pain I keep getting
when i finally give in
allow myself to believe
i get stabbed and punished
and brought to my knees

this lack of trust,
oh please be patient
because im definitly a risk
that needs to be taken
please give me your time
to build up my trust
because when it happens
we'll make a beautiful us.

It All Starts Now

Too many people act as if hope is dead. Just watch the movies, the news, really look at how people treat each other in the office, on the streets. So much pretense, hostility, arrogance, silent killings, so little kindness, patients, appreciation, understanding love and generosity. If people really had faith, if they really believe, in their heart, in their depths they would not be this way. One of the first steps to end the insanity is to face our destructive desires, born and perpetuated out of a lack of love, Lack of EMPATHY, lack of courage, lack of vision. It all starts now. It all ends now. We choose every moment.

Understanding The Lack Of What We Are

what we sorely
lack we do not
talk about, afraid

that this may lead
only to the destruction
of our bridge

our love knows
that time always
keeps its hands
moving, and we

soon accept that
this lack is part of
the house of love,

in fact, what we
lack built us the
spaces for windows
to exist for doors
to be real, and so

here we are now
still one, no one is
a shadow here,
a true soul cannot
project it...

Light spreads over the dark

The writer proves his talent
In front of those who lack it.
The singer proves his talent
In front of those who lack it.
So do every artist, high and low.
We applaud one whose skill we lack.

Ringing Eear

Woke up, morning
left ear ringing
Someone calling?
No, overheating.
Mixed some glucose
drank down fructose
It's still ringing
Like a gong
pinging
constant dong
What went wrong?
Lack of sleep?
Sleep not deep?
Lack of water?
Other matter?
I had choc
Dark and smooth
That's what lock
Ear phone booth.

Falling in love

I fall in love: lack of experience.
I break off love: lack of patience.
I fall in love again: lack of memory.
Thus falling in love continues.
