Reid
You've kept your own traditions by rejecting the laws of Yahweh!
But listen to me and understand my muse;
For you are Reid and,
You are holding on to the traditions of the elders in your village.

Isong
You broke my virginity and i broke yours,
All in the name of lust to carry the day;
But the oral laws of the traditions will bind us together.
Isong,
You are very romantic!
And we must retrace our steps on this love;
For the wounds of wars run so deep and,
I am learning from my mistakes.
Isong,
You are living in the 3-D world with your love!
And, i am here to help you with my 4-D world;
Because, we romantically broke our virginities! !
And now, the laws of the oral traditions have bounded us.

Whether They Are Participants Or Not
In support of some traditions,
That should remain unchanged.
To smear and diminish them,
Should leave those responsible...
Feeling both ashamed and blamed.
There is no documenting of discipline,
When this occurs.
Depending on who is involved.
And whose peace has been stirred!
'Some' traditions should be kept valued,
Like treasures to admire and respect.
Although there are some traditions,
That are questionable!
And they are the ones that initiate public unrest.
With the creation of havoc.
And the calling of police to make arrests.
These traditions are nothing more,
Than some folks approving...
Getting their frustrations off of their chests.
And the taxpayers are issued the bill.
Whether they are participants or not.
It's the old, 'I'll do as I please.
And set my own agenda.'
From a certain group of folks,
Believing their destruction...
Are acts of good natured fun when done!

Signs Of Heaven
A sign of peace and love,
Do not be deceived by the signs of heaven!
And by using them to set your feasts;
For man's own customs and traditions are always against the ways of the Creator!
But many are those who still follow after these traditions on this earth.

In What You Do
Fellow, mellow, bellow, yellow;
With Ghanaians in the land of your muse!
But, i need peace and tranquillity.
This global village,
The civilized people,
Governing and being governed! !
But, backwardness will never push us forward.
To pinpoint,
To write them out,
To facilitate,
But with our cultures and our traditions;
And like a piece of a very nice work in your land!
But, try to watch your steps in what you do.

Have A Blessed Day
May Yahweh bless you like Qoheleth,
May Yahweh protect you like Yahseph,
May Yahweh promote you like Abraham,
may Yahweh remember you like Noah,
May Yahweh guide you like Mosheh,
May Yahweh honour you like David,
May Yahweh intervene for you like Daniyl,
May Yahweh have mercy on you like Shaul,
May Yhweh answer you like Yliyah,
May Yahweh show you the way like Yaaqob,
And may you have a blessed day! !
For the Way of Yahweh is always Righteous.

3 Days And 3 Nights
Pagan antiquity,
And of the traditions of the world;
But many still do not know how to count 3 days and 3 nights.
72 hours exactly makes up 3 days and 3 nights,
So why are you now being deceived by the traditions of this world?
For the truth is always bitter to the masses.

Jupiter
'Eyes have not seen nor ears heard,
But Yahweh has prepared a way for those who loves Him';
Yahweh has done great things for me and i am very glad!
For, the tongue of the wise uses knowledge correctly.
Jupiter! !
I will bring my knowledge from afar to you that you may learn;
For, anger kills a fool and envy slays the simpleton!
So, try to entertain your brain by learning and living by the right things always.
The wicked are not ready to listen to correction!
But, the sweet love of the laws have changed my life today;
And like the muse of love in the land of peace and joy! !

Tests
ALL submit to them, where they sit, inner, secure, unapproachable to
analysis, in the Soul;
Not traditions--not the outer authorities are the judges--they are
the judges of outer authorities, and of all traditions;
They corroborate as they go, only whatever corroborates themselves,
and touches themselves;
For all that, they have it forever in themselves to corroborate far
and near, without one exception.

Hitherto
Conception and social values,
Traditions and the people involved;
Hitherto to my muse is your nakedness,
But try to re-examine yourself again.

Definitely
Definitely,
The opener;
The schools of higher learning!
The user,
Like the little boy and the fat man!
But, to remember the Laws of Yahweh.
Experience!
Gruesome;
Inhumanity,
Incident;
Inappropriate!
But, let the Laws of Yahweh guide you on;
Because, you need the truth always.

March of the Wheelchairs
In Dakota land lunch is dinner
and dinner supper while lunch is lunch,
as traditions from farmlands go.
Now breakfast is at 6, lunch at 9
dinner at noon, lunch at 3
supper at 7, everything timed.
Day in and day out, better not be late.
Weather fickle, eating ain’t!
Farm traditions, genetics ‘grained.
No surprise, nursing meals,
wheelchairs marching, internal time,
largo moves, staccato fades.
Day in, day out…they’re not late
Wheelchairs marching, marching in
farm traditions, genetics ‘grained.
Weather fickle….eating ain’t!
Hope God keeps the schedule,
or has… a special dining hall.
As these Wheelchairs… arrive
Saddam's ouster will not necessarily lead to the same result, since Iraq lacks democratic traditions. Democracy doesn't just consist of holding elections.

Polygamy Dillema
My Elders, listen to me
By your feet, who listened, was me
Atrophy, you got me,
She, a virgin land, and fertile
that, your names have come
and their faces, stars glow, a like.
Elders, listen to me
That, my hands I fold, down is my knee
A trophy, I have got for me
In her, my blood flows, Listen to me,
Through her eyes, I see, her heart holds me
Serene, a lone, naïve,
Other glowing stars, a promise.
Elders, listen to me
That your choice
As my choice
The same.
That none to her lands would go
Listen, the turn is mine, you do?

Is It Just the Image
Which one of these traditions,
Seem more defended?
Is it deceit or delusion?
With the state of the economy,
Thrown in as an afterthought.
You know...
Those thoughts that come after,
Reality is addressed.
With little purpose considered,
As a notable priority.
False impressions are kept intact.
Fantasized lives that are not coming back...
Are given forums and empathized speeches.
Only a grandmother knitting from the third row,
Would appreciate this flow of debated pudding.
Which one of these traditions,
Seem more defended?
Is it deceit or delusion?
Or is it just the image...
Needing the most protection!

All About You
Time, history and traditions;
A beautiful day on your Island of love,
But the cockroach might have gone that way.
Trivial trends and the muse of love,
And like the Encyclopedia Britannica;
But when you forget my name,
The galaxy of love will figure it to you.
You are framed like the figures from Finland,
And painted part partly pale like the Ads of America;
But try to be very terrific in bed when it really matters most,
For the muse of love is all about you and your lover.

Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.
