I Am A Walking Revolution

I am a walking revolution
Effervescence of my essence,
fuels evolution
Lightens that which we darken
Transforming dysfunction into action
Truth my weapon
Love the solution
Peace our premonition

My body is a shrine
Spine a sacred channel for the divine
The center where the soul can align
Ripping through the atmosphere
Riding out waves of fear
I spiral my soul into a perfect sphere
Peering into the future, present, and past
Retrieving what has been lost

I look to the sky,
the sky above
Wheres the love?
Wheres the love?
I look within,
to what has always been
Then I can begin again...
begin again...

I eat,
in the belly of unrest
This earth plane,
the ultimate test
The visible spectrum,
is an all encompassing reflection,
of our consciousness
Mirrors mirroring mirrors
And I, the Creatress,
ushering in the unknown 
Without it truth is meaningless

I am a descended daughter of divinity
Scavenging through the wreckage of infinity
Fueling the ancient fire freely
Wordlessly I move
Guided by an alchemical groove
Traveling the circumference of the supreme womb
Reality my holographic classroom

Raise the fortress from which we dream
Tap into the collective stream
Peace moves in silence and in screams
Divinity dangles from dysfunction by a thread
Covered in guilt guided bloodshed
Don't believe something merely because it is said

Be a breathing revolution
A single human nation
Sovereignty spells salvation
Manifest loves lucid vision
See, confront and eclipse,
our invisible prison
Onward to the precipice of bliss 
Where truth and love kiss,
with no division

This is my mission

    STUNNING.

    This piece was truly an inspiration to all writers.
    It has great imagery, and was an absolute tease for the senses.
    I prefer to write the simple, hard-hitting poems. But you truly kept me hooked until the very last line. And it was so good i had to read it a second time.

    You have a great voice, and a brilliant mind....that results in true art.
    Hope to read more soon.

    that is some elegant poem you wrote. so much emotionally rich imagery playing with our heads and hearts. I particularly love the lines:
    "Peace moves in silence and in screams
    Divinity dangles from dysfunction by a thread
    Covered in guilt guided bloodshed"
    actually I'm really jealous of you for weaving such a graphic word spell. great skill!!

    Fantastic

    You are a revolution, there is no doubt of this. A great work of art! I haven't been so impressed by a poem ever. So much is said here, if ever there is a definition of what a person is in pure terms this work is it. I love how each stanza is complete in itself and they all complete the message as a whole. Rare continuity! A work of art that I hope continues to be shared for all time to come. P.S. Your art rocks too!

    Outstanding

    I can't even put into words how enthralling this piece is. I was spellbound from beginning to end. Your pen is magical my dear. I loved every word and the sentiment behind the words ring out loud and clear. Fantastic job. -mandie-

    Where to begin. 'Don't believe something because it is said.' I love that line. If everyone on this earth just took that one line to heart how different this world would be. The whole poem is breathtaking, and heartening. As long as there are voices like yours I have hope. I have read Lowell Poe's comment and I agree with much of what he says. Especially the last bit ' Everyone must revolt, because when few do...it just fills our jails.'.

    I am glad I clicked on this.

    Ok lass,
    There is much to say about this...
    First... great background...superb wording.. and a better message could not be told. This I totally expect from you....I would be in shock if there was otherwise...i have been reading you for years now.
    But as you know you and I are descendants of the brothers and sisters of revolution...im sure our relatives stood together at the Boston tea party.
    Here is the main thing that I must say.
    You can write about trees and God and sunsets and what ever....you are a writers writer...i admire the hell out of you...you know that..
    These are end days....we are in trouble...there are so many angry people.....but they all stand separate in their frustration.
    If there is any one who can rally the masses...I know it is you and others like you.
    This piece in all its beauty is not calling to everyone..like so many of your other works of art do....we need your message and guidance now more then ever. you have the power to rally us...our inner turmoil will not do now! I say this because i know you have the talent to bring our brothers and sisters together.
    Yes...The last part does tell the reader to.......... be a revelution.. a single human nation....we must specify what nation... are values....we have single human nations now...their nation consists of greed and murder and rape and corruption...singley they walk among us...not of the same good will which we want this nation to be. it's not what we want... as a matter of fact it is what we have now.
    We must bring our thoughts together as one...to be strong...we can't go off in separate directions and say everything is fucked up and I'll do what I have to do to make it better for myself. Love does not exist in a single human nation. Love exists in a great society of of like minded people.
    We already have millions of people walking around thoroughly disgusted that want to assassinate our leaders...as well of an intention that that is...eliminating one problem...that person is just thrown in jail and looked at as a political nut.
    You have the power through your intense writing on this subject...not to get bills passed ..not even to work with this system....but like all great revolutionaries...you ..and all of us must work to clog the existing situation....stop the wheels ...when enough of us refuse to work this system.....not pay taxes...not work in deplorable conditions...not let religious groups who pay no taxes have a big voice in this government..to motivate thousands of others to stand by our wild life and our forests against big government and logging companies....
    What i mean is...we are all on fire inside....you have the power.... the power to spread it...not just what you are...not just what i am...not what someone is we admire...but to grab everyone and shake them!!
    Motivate....we must make them believe it is not the sound of our own voices we like to hear...it is not our cleaver talent for words...
    but it is their life and their country that will fall like Rome.....their future familys will not live in true freedom...if they do not listen to the poets....and our country will cease...and there will be nothing left to revolt about.
    We know what is right...we must make others see....or the dream that was America will be destroyed by the very ones who love it...we must...must... gather all good people to walk with you to the new day we both see
    or we both will be looked upon as outcasts and radicals...we must main stream our message...or we will walk alone.

    Absolutely riveting my Sister,
    Your brother who sees the world as you,
    but we must grow stronger,
    or we shall always be looked upon as trouble makers and outcasts.
    Everyone must revolt, because when few do...it just fills our jails.

    Astonishing write my gypsy.
    LOWELL

    Beautiful background and word choice. I get the feeling there's something larger going on in the poem than I can understand. I love the line "be a breathing revolution." Very inspiring.

    You are a walking revolution, and I am a walking Oxymoron! Great pair we'd make, don't you think?

    Loving the background, by the way...
    As for the poem, so many good lines there!!!!!

    Where truth and love kiss,
    with no division
    I loved those. It's like a perfect vision of ideology.
    and
    Don't believe something merely because it is said.
    One word here- Media!

    Great write here, I salute thee. (and bookmarking!)

    I enjoyed this quite a bit. The best line in the poem for me was:

    Don't believe something merely because it is said.

    Great flow to the poem overall.
