Love is the moon.
Proximity and frequency
Will promote one’s acceptance
And demote one’s importance.
Love is the moon, waxing and waning.

It’s your notion.
Belief in efficacy of a thing
Will not promote or demote
Its efficacy in any manner.
Faith in capacity of a person
Will not increase or decrease
His capacity in any manner.
It is your notion, that’s all.

Also there's two sides of it, I mean, a band like us, at our level and the way we have to promote ourselves and usually radio just completely turns their back on us, at the same time I think Mp3s help promote us somewhat, spreading the word about the album and stuff.

Pain Has Always Been Poetic
everyday
pain is poetry
please do
not demote it
to your
layman's prose
do not degrade
it to your
language of
abuse
let it stay
beautiful in our
hearts
we need it
to be that
way in order
to survive

Promote Me
Promote me with your love and,
Let me embrace you with my wisdom;
For i am like an ornament of beauty beside you!
Let me lead you on right through the path of love,
For the way of the wicked is like darkness;
So promote me with your love like the new sword besdie you,
For you have the sweet love of the muse that i need.

In politics there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers, and then there are those like John McCain who use their careers to promote change.

Life span curtailed
Comforts promote inactivity [physical].
Inactivity promotes heart attack.
Comforts promote activity [mental].
It in turn over long run brings heart attack.
Prosperity targets hearts [corporal].
Poverty touches hearts [mentally].

Too Off Track to Laugh
The moment you allowed my pain...
Believing that will promote your gain,
Was the beginning of your unraveling.
You used all of your institutions...
To introduce my mental execution!
To degrade my way of life,
To enhance a current strife you now fight!
I could delight!
But your decadent way of interpretating might...
Is too off track to laugh!
What you have done is tragic and sad!
Especially what you have done to those...
Who chose to colorize their fears.
What will they do when it is realized...
The terrorists you criticized,
Were of their own kind!
Doing anything to induce havoc.
And bringing down their treasured structures...
Right before their eyes!
What will they do when it is realized...
You allowed my pain...
Believing that will promote your gain!

Common sense
The matchless difference between
a falling rock and
a bell, rocked by the wind,
consists of
the sense of the motion.
The difference between you
and the whole world, by the sense of motion,
is that you can move the world away
by being so statically,
by being so obviously imprisoned
in your own memories.
Moreover, you say
that you will never demote,
by staying in order to typify
our memories
in the eternity of delays....

A Winning Philosophy
when life handed me
sour lemons
I made lemonade
when life handed me
sour grapes
I made rich red wine
when life was a dangerous
roller coaster
I refused to get on for the ride
when life offered
a shit sandwich
I refused to eat it
did not the great
philosophers
promote positive
states of mental being?
did not the great
philosophers
promote moderation
balance self denial?
happiness is a question of choice
choose wisely live in rewards of wisdom

To the one who 'ones
Sometimes I wonder what it's like
to be you - eagerly seeking out
new poems of mine and of some others, too;
triumphantly scoring them a 1,
or if they're scored already 10,
then, zap! it's down to 5.5;
or if it's already so enjoyed, it's scored two 10s,
zap! got it down to 7.0...
have a go at this one, while
it's still unscored...
the superscription calls it 'user rating' -
how can you rate it when you've haven't 'used' it?
just abused it? (You'd score it 0
or -10 if they allowed it...)
what really saddens me is that
you can't distinguish between
a bad poem and a bad poem about goodness..
so when you 1 my next poem, does that signify
the narrowness of my mind, or of yours?
Sometimes I wonder if you write
poetry of your own; and whether
your poetry improves, or worsens,
as you demote on your own private scale,
the poems of others...?
Now that's a serious thought.
