" Portals To The Unknown "
"In crepuscular shadows, choices emerge like enigmatic sentinels,
Ordinary trajectories unfold, a life predetermined.
Yet, hidden portals swing ajar, to mystical realms unseen,
Where existence's intricate brocade weaves secrets, beyond terrestrial treasures."

" Hard Choices "
"Tears fall like rain, as two paths unfold,
One whispers your dreams, the other, a life grown cold.
Your heart beats with longing, to live, to love, to be,
But fear and doubt creep in, like a thief in the night, stealing your destiny.
Choose, dear soul, choose wisely, for time is fleeting fast,
Will you follow your heart, or forever be aghast?"

" The Mind's Dark Design "
Beware, mortal, of the mind's dark design,
A magnet for mediocrity, a survivalist's confine.
But dare to dream the impossible, and it will take flight,
Propelling you to greatness, through the dark of night.
But beware the zombie hordes and their common need,
They'll devour your soul, and leave you a hollow, haunted lid.
Laugh, mortal, at the absurdity, of this life-eating machine,
And fl...

" Beyond Reason's Reach "
In cosmic realms of finance, a logic prevails,
A universe of numbers, where reason never fails.
A "because" is always sought, a solution to unfold,
A rational explanation, for every transaction to be told.
But in the nebula of love, a different law applies,
A realm where reason falters, and emotions realize.
No "because" is needed, no explanation to justify,
Love's gravity warps logic, an...

" The MONEY Mandate "
Listen up, mortal, and heed this decree,
From 3 to 18, struggle, and learn to be free.
From 18 to 28, don't overspend, you fool,
Or you'll be a slave to debt, with no financial rule.
Invest, invest, invest, from 18 to 38,
Your future self will thank you, no need to explain.
Avoid the illusions, the thieves in disguise,
Don't impress others, or you'll be an empty wallet's demise.
By 40 ...

" Sucked Into The Void "
In a world where energy's the goal,
Takers drain, while Givers make whole.
Their cups are empty, yet they demand,
While Givers flourish, with a generous hand.
Beware, dear Taker, of the Black Hole's sway,
It'll suck your life force, and leave you gray.
Your EGO will balloon, like a toxic fright,
And STRUGGLE will be your constant, dreadful night.
So, take a hint, and learn to give with...

"The Harmony Of Strangers"
In the grand orchestra of life, we're taught to harmonize,
To echo the crowd's refrain, lest we be ostracized.
But amidst the cacophony, a discordant truth we find:
Love and loyalty, like a faithful hound, leave the crowd behind.
In youth's naive paradise, connections bloom like flowers,
We dance, we prance, we sing, in joyous, ignorant hours.
But as wisdom's winter sets, and petals drop l...

"Synchrony of the Soul"
In the grand tapestry of existence, a profound connection binds kindred spirits.
Dancing with a familiar soul is akin to navigating a well-worn pathway,
Where harmony and synchrony converge, fostering growth and deepening bonds.
With each step, the rhythm of love resonates, amplifying its presence,
Yet, when discordant notes creep in, guidance emerges to realign and refine.
In this celest...

"Fake PROMISES, Fatal PRICES"
In the depths of deceit, where shadows play,
Lurk fake promises, that ruin lives each day.
A loan with interest, that comes back to claim,
Destroying dreams, and leaving only shame.
Education and jobs, a mirage in the sand,
Work is worship, but exploitation's hand.
Marriage, a responsibility, that suffocates the soul,
Reproduction, a duty, that perpetuates poverty's role.
Most people u...

" Harvesting Hours "
In the garden of life, where hours bloom and fade,
Two paths diverge, like twin brothers, shades of gray.
One leads to opium's sweet, seductive night,
A siren's call, that whispers "lose yourself, it's alright."
Identity, a mask that hides the face,
A never-ending chase, to prove a pointless pace.
Competing in wrong arenas, a jest, a joke, a play,
Where time, the thief, steals away, and l...

" Justice For Sale "
A monetary fine, a punishment unique,
Justice is skewed, a weight on the weak.
A fine is the sentence, a price to be paid,
For the poor, it's a crime, their pockets are frayed.
Thursday 12th December 2024 4:34 pm
"Fractured Bonds"
Tears fall like rain, as whispers pierce the heart,
A bond so fragile, shattered from the very start.
The memories of laughter, now taunt and deceive,
A love that withered away, like autumn's dying leaves.
The weight of compromise, crushes the soul's desire,
A relationship that drained, leaving only heartache's fire.
The ghosts of what could've been, haunt every waking night,
A longing fo...

Metal And Flesh
Metal and flesh, a parallel design,
Both robot and human, with purposes aligned.
A framework of wires, a skeleton of bone,
Both support the structure, that makes them whole.
Microchips and neurons, a dance of electric fire,
Both process information, with a desire to acquire.
Sensors and senses, a world of input and sight,
Both navigate the landscape, with a will to take flight.
A heart...

"Stellar Resilience"
In cosmic expanse, two stars collide,
Perfection and Confidence, a paradox inside.
One beams with optimism, a shining light,
"Try your best," it whispers, through the dark of night.
The other, a warrior, forged in asteroid fire,
"Prepare for the worst," it thunders, with a heart's desire.
For in the galaxy of life, turbulence is key,
And handling the worst, is the only way to be free.

"Forged in Fire, Taught in Halls"
"In the crucible of struggles, wisdom is forged,
From situations' fiery coals, insight is born.
But in the sterile halls of education's might,
Knowledge is served, pre-digested, without a fight."
Tuesday 3rd December 2024 6:37 am
"Partners in Harmony"
A good partner brings joy and delight,
Happiness that's genuine, a love that's bright.
They ignore the nonsense, and keep you free,
A bad partner, however, brings drama and misery.
Choose wisely, for a partner can make or break,
Your happiness, your peace, your heart's sake.
Tuesday 3rd December 2024 6:01 am
"Eliminate to Elevate"
Eliminate the weights that hold you down,
Bad habits, distractions, and ego's crown.
Fear and social noise, a detour from your path,
Addictions, a weight that forever lasts.
Cut ties, focus on goals, and face your fears,
Discipline and sacrifice, ignite true wealth through the years.
Tuesday 3rd December 2024 4:58 am
Masterpiece Of Choices
Time's masterpiece, embroidered with focus or distraction's vice,
One orchestrates destiny, the other usurps, with cunning device.
Focus confers profundity, distraction plagiarizes with guile,
Choose wisely, for time's strokes illuminate your life's indelible smile.

"The Want vs. Need Enigma"
In the land of desire, where interests roam free,
Lies a treasure of wants, that beckon thee.
But beware, dear adventurer, of the financial sea,
Where unmanaged interests and wants, can wreck thy destiny.
Example:
Wanting a yacht, but needing a boat,
Leads to a financial storm, that's hard to float.
Manage thy interests and wants, let's not sink in debt's night.

"The Cosmic Quest for Inner Peace"
In a galaxy of chaos, where stars collided and fell,
You lost your peace, like a spaceship that lost its bell.
It was hijacked by aliens, of People, Competition, and Pride,
Who programmed your mind, with a virus that wouldn't subside.
You tried to upgrade, with Wrong Decisions and Comparisons too,
But your system crashed, like a rocket that didn't make it through.
You tried to reboot, by T...

Parenting
Stupidity is planning, a life that's not their own,
For children are like trees, that grow in nature's zone.
They bloom and flourish, in their own sweet time,
And provide their own shade, when their branches entwine.
Good parenting is protection, a guardian of the tree,
Allowing it to grow strong, wild, and carefree.
Not shaping or controlling, but nurturing with gentle care,
And trusting...

"Good Pages But Bad Book"
A bad book closes, its time to move on,
No need to linger, where the story's gone wrong.
But life's bad chapters, can stick to good pages too,
Wasting time, if not shut, with a conscious "I'm through".
Close the bad books, of past regrets and pain,
Turn the page to new, where love and joy remain.
Life's too short, to waste on bad stories untold.
Sunday 1st December 2024 6:27 am
"Radiant Perception"
Eyes behold the soul's radiant glow,
Ears resonate with life's symphony below.
The nose inhales newness, like a fragrant breeze,
Tongue savors life's depths, in joy and disease.
Touch feels the unspoken, in every gentle squeeze.
