Premium Member Let Truth Be the Catalyst For Good
When lies are spread, destruction reigns.
Hearts break and love bears ugly stains.
Truth is obscured; grief lurks ahead.
Destruction reigns when lies are spread.

Truths may be told with harsh intent.
No good results, for none was meant!
Some wield cold truths with words so bold.
With harsh intent, truths may...

Catalyst
What  time is this
Where once we wait
Whilst questions stir up great debate
Upon this place a storm doth brew
Encroaching in on me and you
To make a stand or make a choice
Have a heart and have a voice
Be not thee fooled by lovely lies
Made to keep...

Sparked by thoughts of you....

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Television Is a Catalyst
Present day film presents sex and love
Sordid spectacle spectators enjoy
Children peep at obscene scene, soon it
Comes back in their inward eye, altering
Swiftly their feel and what they seem to need
Even the world and how they see it
And just when no one is on their way
In...

Premium Member Catalyst of Two Faces
The catalyst of two faces, his and hers,
bookends with pleasure dais in between.
Faithfully compacted on canvas, concurs,
never turning ones back, remains clean.

Sharp brush of Chagall, floats lovers.
Their passion, a cloud in lala land, hovers.
Circus performer on ochre horse forbids
openness and honesty of their lofty eyelids.

Marc’s...

Premium Member Change, a Catalyst For a Better World
We should never mince words,
when speaking of politicians;
but instead, call them what they are…
completely delusional.

We listen to their speeches; 
which are nothing more than, 
fictional stories.
Every election day, millions rush to the polls,
to vote for the wooden head, that they think will… 
actually work, for...

Catalyst
Allow me, this day, 
to become the catalyst 
of my own awakenings…
For I hold within myself
the light of dawns reckonings

Bare floor’s creaking
with the splinters of the past
Some things never change
Some things never last

Allow me, this day,
to find enlightenment 
within worded phrase…
For I hold within myself
knowledge...

Pain As a Catalyst For Faith
I never sought your money, never sought your gold
all I ever asked, was for the truth to be told
while time has passed, my hope has faded
G-d only knows, how long I had waited

Memories I have as a little boy, once happy just to play with...

Catalyst
Scavengers of the land pick the bones off my memories.
  Phantoms hide behind their cloaks then evaporate into smoke.
Come breathed the smoke of my lungs that's filled with putrefying chaos.
  They say true love never dies but what do I know of true...

The bridge you walk over
The water that carries you over the fall
One whom singles out souls to meet other souls.
I AM a human bridge.

I know who will love you, and
who would care enough to learn your name?

I also know who would
be made better by you.
I...

Catalyst of the Times
 
A dragon of cobalt blue I think 'me' to be
As I glide through the mist wild and free,
The scales of my breast and tough leather of my wings
Are what glistens in the pale moonlight as I sing.

I am more like the Pacific Ocean at...

A little fertiliser
And the flower will bloom

And the chemical reaction will complete

Premium Member Peace
Catalyst
Speeds up a chemical reaction
While  defence, suspicion, defiency and greed
Of dictatorship
Speeds up an outburst for war
Between man and man
Country and country
There are many reasons to start a war
But there is only one reason
To prevent
To halt
And to stop it
And that reason is simply called
Peace-loving...

Premium Member A Chemical Reaction
For a complete chemical reaction
It needs some chemical elements, a catalyst 
And a balanced chemical equation 
Under a scientific theory , of course
But in this scientific and digital world 
We use to forget to think scientifically or digitally
Instead of a scientific mind 
We have cultivated...
