            Conch shell sea gem and sea snail    
            Horn held tone gyrates the tritonis trumpet 
            Note blown ending battles on a splinted scale

            Emergent higher seas, onward this ship shall sail
            Tidal wave warnings of an uprising onset

Asked the crowning Trees
of their Grass rooting neighbors

When you feel like singing
while dancing
are you more likely to invoke devotion
to capitalism's competitions
or compassion's cooperation?

Responsive chords,
amusing reeds
and whistling thistles
shyly reply

When we feel most wealthy voiced
and healthy choiced
are we more likely to invest
in red soiled cults 
of secular supremacy
or green cultures
of sacred communion?

MotherTrees of crowning shade
for their root systemic neighbors
flexed their branching muscles
groaning
moaning through Earth's wind
and rain,
heat
and pain

Our best way to heal
Othering smothering instincts
is to repair our shared cooperative soil
restoring EarthPeace soul
of co-invested health

Thereby growing out
our shared climate
with compassion's devoted wealth

Sang the crowning Trees
while dancing with Grass rooting 
up shooting 
neighbors.

Rise Again

Tak oor grund from beneath oor hurdies 

Burn oor birches aside the lough, 

Besmirch hard fecht fur freedom, 

Dictating oor days tae come, 

No from the pint o a gun, 

Fae laws an promises  broken. 

Lees an lees spout forth like watter 

Lives expended as if they dinnae matter, 

Feel the Jacobite spirit again, 

Ready tae fecht like scotsmen again, 

Like warrior poets risen from the glen, 

Fae the mists o the past remember, 

Oor freedom wis wun sending Edward hame, 

Yon wis the past a new war begun noo, 

No wi claymores ,targes an guns, 

This time its ideals an Eton buffers, 

Those who wid sell oor birthrights 

Tae mak us slaves an servile peasants, 

Using stealth ,treachery an unco ither weys 

Rogues they be crooks ,cheats and thieves 

Seeming beyond reproach wi things hidden  

Frae us puir mortals aye they wull dae us doon, 

Sic a time as this tae fecht fur whit is oors 

Naw mair begging fur aa few scraps  

Fae a table fu wi guid things , 

Scraps urny fur us we ur free loons 

Burthit free an deeing we wull be free, 

Ur ye ready tae rise yince agin?

Premium Member Deep Uprising

Beauty
in motion,
sacred mystery
lies in tied conjugal ritual
of Yin's want
rising up
and out
to engage cosmic need
coming Yang down
penetrating in

My rising want
conjoins His incoming need
co-arises wanting here
and needing now

Sacred space
and timeless
peak experience time

Integrity
and freedom
of boundless EarthTribe time.

BiPartisan communion
resilient Yang strength
flowing Yintegrity's resonance.

Co-therapy
where trauma cannot survive
such compassionate verbal
and mostly nonverbal
co-empathic
1/0
universally here
uniting now
compassion's communication.

Want uprising
deep incoming need
as resonant warm wonder
invites resilient unconditional awe.

Uprising

From aquifer be low
Break surface
Babbling babbling upwell
Plumos in addy.
Purest Earthblood
Clear clean simplicity
Flow cool and true
Always your level
Quietly condially unremitting

Premium Member Bombing In Mumbai

Was it him?
No,
his brothers
tied grenades.
on dead black birds
heaved them high.
to fly, wings tied back,
up to a third story balcony.

Premium Member A Red Uprising

a wealth of rubies
cardinals among berries
red hibiscus bloom

crimson sun sinking
leaving vivid trails of fire
on scarlet roses

dragonflies emerge
going everywhere, silent
on soft carmine wings

Dandelion Uprising

Tarmac erupts, pushed
by such a force
that the crust splits
to reveal life unfurling.
How could such fragile leaves
exert such power?
A surface rolled hard 
by the work of men
to make a path
has been defied.
The dandelions raise
as a green flag
their leaves,
the sign of nature's strength
soon to celebrate in gold,
all a buzz.

Uprising

Between you and me
Longer is the stream of agony
I am out of breath
You may know
Yet, my mute feelings,
Ages ago,
Are surprised
Waking up
I shake my thoughts
The words are displaced between my wings
I see you revolt,
I take off the robe
Pulling my crooked legs together
I cover the skinny body
Declaring rebellion while erect
And my chest for storms is content.

A Joyous Uprising

A Joyous Uprising!    
Let joy be a revolution!    
The uprising of joy  
Overtakes   
All heaviness!    
All worry!    
All confusion!   
Create a major splash   
In the atmosphere  
Causing rearrangements!  
Create new combinations  
Allow the joy of yellow  
And the passion of red   
To combine!
Combine and watch   
Putting passion in your joy  
Joy into your passion  
Watch for combinations   
Bringing forth expressions  
that haven’t been heard!      
Let joy be a revolution    
A Joyous Uprising!    
Let it bring a new sensation   
A feeling of contentment!    
Let joy be the foundation    
For a world of love and peace!    
Let us see its face!

Flag

flag

a train runs over me and mine
indifferent to our
cries its moguls feed without blinking are incredulous
masses going to swell to occasion grace is it
to be sheep suckled on milks of 
savage pride while honey-blessed malnourished
legions no longer bleat they howl with mutant
alchemy grey towers conjure only
more foul-magic talismans to throw dogs empty
bones will not satisfy even sparrows consume themselves in famine
they'll have to kill me i'll not taint myself in
their unholy rag i've seen them eat their children and pimp
their own to strangers
he began to weep rivers of flame and bleed armies of rage
too late to quench tiger-fire soon will femur 
trumpets wail chod-rite cymbals crash all urns of sin spill forth
lava-like consuming marionette and masters in
ancient ways known to all

The Communist Uprising

Why do i, in agony writhe when
 thine eyes, draw a curtain to my plight. 
When words screech for attention,  you only perceive verbose melodrama. 
Or perhaps you live in spite of a class in strife?
And that you guise in colours of safron and never knew what it means to be Red.
Such is the nature of your love for this land. 
Such is your justice,  such is the nature of the judgement you've drawn in your hand. 
You who hath justified loot and plunder
Count the casualties of intense struggle. 
A mere statistic. An amoral victory. 
I know that your masters are fragile
But must You tremble and cower 
in the presence of a spectre;
The sights and sound of a distant red cry. 
Or is it that it is not a ghost you see but the myriad hammers and sickles of a justice so real; served at last.

A Spring of Uprising Feeling

The leaves have started to show off their sprout
A new an glorious start to an new an In bombing mood
The rivers an streams start to flow with grace and insurance peace
The bees fly along side the lilies  as the grass becomes fuller

So much beautiful as the springs before 
As the birds sing me a singth the the most prettiest song to wake
As the glory of sun dances upon my face 
An the crickets sing the most beautiful song to sleep 
    
 Thanks Tim kegley
