Laud De Poet: TOAST TO THE ALTER

TOAST TO THE ALTER
MAN:
You are the reason that
I live the oxygen in my lungs
Let me be the letters
needed for the right poetic remarks
You are the principle
that solves my complicated arithmetic
One hundred beats per
minute, rhythm in my heart my heart beat
Ahwenepa nkasa: Beauty
of silence though 250plus stringed waist beads
Up down to fro I have
been but you the only one that I seek
When compasses are
broken down on the deep seas, lost; that is how one will feel without love but
when your love encompasses you appear as a flickering sign of hope, my
lighthouse
Clean and with a pure
heart spotless the white house that will be the official abode of my complete
self…
WOMAN:
Of course this act is
mutual my president my heart shall be your official residence,
Intricately designed with
complexity where there is difficulty in the ability to form images and ideas in
the mind; scrimmages, especially of things never seen or experienced directly.
I am a coded language
bar lines; ordained long before time my Mourinho the special one my only
decoder; so flip, click, have free access into my hidden channels.
My heart is like the
Cinderella shoe not everyone can fit but you.
Oxygen in my breath
Iron in my legs, carry
me to where I deserve
Your whole self is gold
how else can I describe your worth.
I dare anyone to take
this action
Get on the periodic
table and this trinity can’t be broken down by any chemical reaction
The 70% of my total
body mass two part hydrogen one part oxygen and you know how to best quench my
thirst, “il meglio”; you the best…
MAN:
I will cleave to you till
the end of age, like breasts stay together in the bra of love even though
separated by cleavage,
The ink of my pen destined
to bleed in the clean page of your private papyrus so legally let me emboss my
emblem; colophon…
My sunshine; my light
energy trapped in chlorophyll, you complete my photosynthesis
Panorama, flashes, the
photo-grid of your persona, speaks better; photo-sentences.
Mutual protection I
prefer you an angel to being a police, because I don’t want my cardiac arrested;
I am not ready to be laid to rest yet…
Why die when one can
live for love especially’ when the ultimate has been done by Yashua on the
cross for all of us.
The reason I think it’s
an error to speak of Eros and point to cupid and his arrows.
I prefer you a thief to steal my heart; klepto,
we both know it’s all yours though, steal mine let me steal yours, the beauty
of theft only in this scenario.
The reason I love you
is because there is no reason.

CIRCUMCISION BRITH MILLAH
BELOW IS THE WRITE UP OF THE SPOKEN WORD PIECE
CIRCUMCISION
I was once told of the story of the wanzam
I traced it to the torah i traced it to the torah even into
the book of genesis where the first act was performed on Abraham//
who was 99 and Ishmael 13, the torah calls it brith millah the Akans refer to it as
tw3tiatwa simply circumcision.
Now in the very beginning in the land of Eden where man lived
in its garden even there man fell ever since man has been unclean,
man is full of dirt there is the need for a holy bath before
the call of death, far from the Ganges river in India, Euphrates in Asia but a
spiritual purification not of the body but of the heart removal of the foreskin
new disposition far from mutilations of arteries or valves
blood of the lamb; red pigment washes every individual sin
crimson and leaves it whiter than snow Isaiah 1:18 true...
Now would you answer in the affirmative, if you were ever
asked whether the prepuce of your heart like an impeding tree had been axed, by
that which is sharper than any two edged sword, I speak of the word of God, or
would you go back 3centuries into time, borrow the word twaddle to describe my
question delivered in the capsule of a rhyme, even as a defensive mechanismwhen within a twinkle of an eye, your grain tweak faster than
a split second, ya lips convulse and the muscle on your face do that involuntary
spasm dance,
for indeed your heart knows it is embalmed with sin because
the heart can think...
When I say sin, I refer not to the 21st alphabet
of the Hebrews but that which has its thesaurus as iniquity, transgression,
uncleanliness.
Removal of the prepuce of the manhood now emulated by
infidels no more exclusive to the Hebrews
God is God of all flesh not just to the Jews so the command
has been extended to me and you,
from tangible to intangible seen to unseen by the eye tangible
but can be seen by the intangible
god speaks of the renewal of the mind akwankyre
is not separate from the circumcision of the heart
now to bring you at par to its parallelism ma me nkyere
we can’t afford to live in this world alone we have to be on
gods side
in over 400 places in the bible the scriptures speaks of the
heart as a place of intelligence will thoughts understanding awareness this
science has not fully grasped so it says these few potential nouns can only be
turned to kinetic verb y the brain
but in definition the mind is the seat of thought, the centre
of consciousness that stores, knowledge and memories but the heart is the seat
of the soul and has the scripture not told us, to guard our hearts cos out of it
comes the issues of life for as a man thinketh in heart so is he
We will never truly understand god if we don’t deal with him
from a spiritual perspective
like the ancient prophets i poem these words of the chief
executive i execute his words like Langston Hugues i freely release these
words from my heart through my lungs even unto you
what he released into our nostrils were not cocks to block
our sinuses to prevent us from breathing but his breath to ensure we are living
our purpose is to please god the main reason why we must circumcise, if this
life is but to ourselves then we may as well keep our foreskins and trap self
in this susceptible cell after-all the foreskin can give high scores in the exam
of sensitivity.
