Premium Member The eternal question - God, no God, maybe God
Made in God’s image, we are living light We affirm since we’ve been, seen and so known We have seen God face to face, in plain sight All was revealed when we chose to atone Recognising the transience of earth life Weary of chasing objects of desire One day we turned our back on needless strife And set out to find God,...

Diss-illusioned
Written By: D. Collins 4/3/25 We are losing friends and losing them fast. As far as trust goes, we’re running dead last. We leave our allies hanging and citizens overseas. Spend enormous resources focused on deportees. Don’t get the impression America has your back. You are “Diss-illusioned” if you believe that. If you offer nothing to pad pockets of the rich. You,...

Polish Your Pearl
Written By: D. Collins 3/27/25 Find what comes easy and keep doing it. Move it to the top of your to-do list. Nourish it along with some passion and zest. Before long, you might rate as one of the best. Inject some soul into it and really cut loose. Let your talent bling like some spit-shined boots. Constantly polish that gift...

Premium Member Song of our soul
Invoking bliss magnetism, let heart sing, aware at all times of this simple fact: the idea or thought is not the thing, of the fruit we taste and deeds we enact. We are merely one of the many forms manifest upon this earth realm dual, wherein each entity goes through life’s storms, suffering unless love be soul’s fuel. Futile and needless are ego...

The Reaper Reigns
Written By: D. Collins 3/7/25 For the non-believers he’s now here in the flesh. Seriously masquerading as a U.S. President. Civil destruction is what gives him a rise. With a “Hail Hitler” minion standing by his side. Everything he touches creates chaos and death. Earning the title as society’s number one menace.. The Eve of Destruction is the time in which...

Nigga Nature
Written By: D. Collins 3/15/25 A Nigga Nature is something you’re not accustomed to. In that you have the privilege of color afforded to you. Ten times have passed since the beginning of time.

Start Right Here
Written By: D. Collins 2/27/25 If all you've ever known is just how to survive. And there is no door open for you to thrive. You'll become what you'll become 'cause everyone has to eat.

Back In The Day
Written By: D. Collins 2/15/25 We all did grime to survive back in the day. Some go caught up, while some of us got away. I place no judgement on whatever it takes to eat. By Any Means Necessary, put toys under the tree. Back in the day snitches didn't exist. A bid in Angola was a slap on the...

Create Something Beautiful
Written By: D. Collins 1/25/25 Create something beautiful while you're on this earth. It will still be here when you're long, under the dirt. Create a masterpiece molded from your own hands. Inject the juice that extends your family Clan. You take that seed and give it nothing but good. Tell them the things you'd change, if you could. Then, they...
