In This Decade: Deep Calls to Deep

The purposes of a man's heart are deep waters
but a man of understanding draws them out
prov 20:5

These words
Combined
Reformed
Found forgotten
Rewarmed
Stagnant sentences
Dormant stanzas
Various torn discource
Draining downwards
Like forlorn sediment
Left to rest
Rolling under
the river bed
The raging representative
of forward pressing
time and culture
Roaring water
coursing vehement chariot
Churning over unobserved
Soft nuances
and charming inflections
Oh yes,
fast paced
centuries of progress
And yet,
the echo
the refrain
Tapping steady
Under a small stream's babbling
Heard in the lapping of an eddie
A fallen leaf slaps me
And Wind runs laughing

A quick writing after sitting down with two old friends. The moment was a Real spot in Time and afterwards i sat and savored what had taken place. Sitting in front of i were two artists of power and heart who ive been blessed to share a good part of this journey's path with. Strengthened and encouraged to see their walk and where they now stand. Being with them again brought back and renewed a part of who I am. As if my Spirit needed to be near theirs for clear recall. We discussed this current project and shared Words on the stirring of a Movement. Bishop Nii & The Entity
My Bros
from the Beginning
this journey
Savor a moment
Mass Encouragement
Strong fellowship
reviving personhood
& purpose
I shared I heart's
understanding
of I & I purpose
Agreement in prayer
Too great a point in
time for I to
contemplate
No photo or shared mixtape
Forgot as I was caught
in Kiros
Another time then
All in Your timing.
May I rest in Your presence.
Recognize Your breath.

The Necessity of Remembering.

Those who fought for Freedom.
Walked through the aisles of crosses and stars.
Silence and lifting a soldier in prayer as he mourned his friends.
The weight of Freedom.

Days later another soldier came to higher-ground to lift i up.
We remembered his Grand Father's heroics in the second world war.
I recalled how Dad worked two-full time jobs when I was a child,
His laughter, generosity, and change of heart...


Walking this path...learning to fight for Love's sake.

Be FREE...and follow your Destiny

oh my papa...that place where we will meet.

Taking steps to regain strength after this loss.

I & I look forward to stepping back into writing and sharing stories.

Yah Blessings!

A Break in the Thawed Past

This morning i meant to sit in the Word on some disciplined vibration.
Instead i opened an old black book and stepped into contemplation.
I had put it in a black bag to bring to story telling with our small Tribe last night. It was left at home and so i shared without it. Spoke about when You brought i to the arctic for a cold, isolated season of i life. What you worked and began in i Spirit. Learning of the purpose and mission on this rotating spot. It was fresh...refreshing, despite not mentioning how snow affects me when it falls, the laughter we shared hauling heaving crates, the violence, or how hard it was for i to forgive i mistakes.

and that book...and what was written. What You re-awaken.
Old poems of purpose.
Writ words of resolution.
The future's hopes already spoken.
Despair and self examination.
What You were doing...and what i was running from.
That Ice we broke through with new brethren...
And i wonder if i will see them again.
And their death.
And i purpose.

Indeed, the future is written...
Yet to be created
Waiting on our decisions
Stand Up and Fight...
LOVE






Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the desert
and streams in the wasteland.

Isaiah 43:18-19
