i surrender, the war is over...urirehc

this weekend was something. a good mix of the good and bad. what a cocktail. well for those who missed the poetry slam that I organized on Friday, I would like to share my piece with you which is titled: "Free Will." I wrote this piece on behalf of the people I know that make the wrong choices in life, just to point out that we are in control of our own suffering and pleasures. tell me what you think....

Free Will

Love, the highest level of intimacy that we share amongst ourselves and with each other

Hate, the lowest yet strongest feeling of indifference we bestow upon our enemies or of those we express extreme anger

Expression of choice, detailed actions through movements of our bodies and Voice is what makes us human regardless of our personal views of faith…

The Act of Free Will

Since Birth, we all know that the structure of our origins in regards to the way we think derive from the ones that raised us, our parents, the direct link

Is it they who we are grateful for the deeds that brings goodness to the ones we enjoy companionship with,

Is it they who we feel shameful towards the persons that we endure opposition, the loss of wisdom, the lack of knowledge of the principles of our own catechism

It is self-explanatory

Protagonist or Antagonist, we choose our actions through the belief system of morals

Our reason on this Earth, determined by experience and understanding of logic only

Sustained never beyond this three dimensional portal

Until we die

Positive Stimulation and Pleasure, we can control

Undying Pain and Suffering, we can control

We put ourselves in our current position

Pain or Pleasure, all can endure

Retain from faulty pressure, we gain wisdom to allure

As living intelligent creatures, not alone, we must be teachers and leaders

Followers to Preachers or even Rebels to Lechers

What is your understanding of fairness in this world?

Through hardships and struggle, who says that this world isn’t fair?

Everything is fair

We make it either one or the other, through free choice

That is why we aren’t perfect at all, the definition of Fair lies through your morals

Not by those that choose your morals for you, the media, the government

Embrace what best fits you as a human being

Like Christ said, do unto others as they would have done unto you

With the gift of Free will, you have the option

To prosperity or corruption

You either choose or you lose



God Bless. =)

my apologies for missing out on the poetry slam. i agree with all of it. my favorite ironic line is: Everything is fair. haha. in a sense, that's true. but damn, if this is what goes on during your poetry slams.. i'll try harder to make it next time around! oh and, i caught that backwards urirehc. maybe you can explain that to me sometime?
