I see knowledge increasing and human power increasing. I see ever-increasing possibilities before life, And I see no limits set to it at all, Existence impresses me as a perpetual dawn. Our lives, as I apprehend, are great in expectations.

But we must take other steps, such as increasing conservation, developing an ethanol industry, and increasing CAFE standards if we are to make our country safer by cutting our reliance on foreign oil.
Lest those islands still seem to you too remote in space and time to be relevant to our modern societies, just think about the risks... of our increasing globalization and increasing worldwide economic interdependence.

As we've gotten more successful, there's a gap between the speed of our publishing pipeline and the speed of our receiving submissions pipeline. Our pipeline of leaks has been increasing exponentially as our profile rises, and our ability to publish is increasing linearly.

That's true but I think the contemporary problem that we are facing increasing numbers of black people and other people of color being thrown into a status that involves work in alternative economies and increasing numbers of people who are incarcerated.

Where I belong: My Own Home
All this discriminating,
Got me contemplating,
Where I belong?
Its got me 'singing the same old song'.
All the contradicting
Has got me pondering
On the human race
That lurks apon this earth's face.
The dictating,
Got me wondering,
Beseeching,
For a home,
Of my own,
Got me wanting to burst,
Increasing me hunger, increasing my thirst,
To search,
For mountains I was supposed to climb,
and not that all along were not my own, that made me mime.
With all this unfolding,
I'm finding myself mizzling,
Because the discrimination,
Is what caused the contemplation,
Of all the contradiction,
From all the dictating,
Which caused me to start beseeching,
For a place where I belong,
My own home.

Infestation Of Getting 'High' On Education
The increasing costs of one's higher education,
Provides 'what' as a guarantee?
Intelligence?
Common sense?
An ability to know the difference between...
Being accountable and responsible?
Competent 'with' integrity?
Does the increasing costs of one's education,
Automatically bestow pride...
And identity?
Or is one paying to network nonsense?
To ensure more of it becomes obvious as seen.
And we all benefit by the process of this...
Infestation of getting 'high' on education and not deeds.

An Explosion Of Emotion
What is love: tenderness, softly whispered
words, overcome with a sense of awe and
delight and joyous feelings spiralling deep
inside like a maelstrom increasing in power
yet also perfectly contained within the most
noble ideals & marvellous reverence - while
feeling affection - intertwined with electricity
magnetism and light in short - an explosion
of emotion -that increases in force as time
goes by and the distance covered is never
shortened by fading moments - every hour
leading to increasing ecstasy until slumber
claims the mind and heart just to renew the
power to repeat the performance and a new
jaunt on the stage of life with the applause
of invisible awareness accompanying our
every move augmenting the emotions to
create visual patterns expressing delight

Yes, disappointment over perceived unfairness, injustice, promises not kept, tends to go hand in hand with increasing prosperity. Expectations are dashed. What can I say!

Ifs And Buts
You want me to believe in you.
In everything you may say and do.
But when you almost touch my trust...
There is something that you do,
That messes that up.
You do a slick sliding done on alibis.
Thinking I will stoop for duping.
And this you try!
I've had enough of ifs and buts.
Dressed and hidden behind a disguise.
You deceive me with increasing ease.
As if to do it is okay with me.
You expect me not to question at all,
Your whereabouts without a telephone call.
You deceive me with increasing ease.
As if to do it is okay with me.
You do a slick sliding done for fun.
But let me tell you baby I am not the one.
You want me to believe in you.
In everything you may say and do.
But when you almost touch my trust...
There is something that you do,
That messes that up.
I've had enough of your ifs and buts.
Pack your bags fast and don't shuffle a strut.
I'm use to you thinking quick on your feet!
But save your innocence it isn't working on me.

India saw from the beginning, and, even in her ages of reason and her age of increasing ignorance, she never lost hold of the insight, that life cannot be rightly seen in the sole light, cannot be perfectly lived in the sole power of its externalities.
