Sexuality, Growth, Mother-Child Relationship, Values, Song

 -----------------------------------------

It Crawls
Rolls
And Gently steps.
The tottering toddler
tries to follow
its mother's insistent claps.
-----------------------------------------
GROWTH
-----------------------------------------
He falls in the rough
He tumbles
He was told to stand up straight.
His mother sings
the songs of spring
His chilly fears abate.
-----------------------------------------
GROWTH
-----------------------------------------
A broken toy
A shifty glance
A shambling Hut of lies.
He pleads the fifth
Remorse is learnt
His Sin abruptly dies.
-----------------------------------------
DISCOVERY
-----------------------------------------
Her heart has overgrown the mind
Her hands were big in size.
Her mother wreathes
A song of love
Her doubt recedes
She cries.
-----------------------------------------
PRIDE
-----------------------------------------
Her arms grow strong
Her shoulders broad
She stands emboldened
In pride.
Just
Only to fall
From the piercing notes
From the songs
mother sings
by her side.
-------------------------------------
peace
-----------------------------------------
The child of a mother
Grows still_____she grows still
In the reverberating tune.
The source is silent
Yet its message will
Resound in the echoes
Fulfilled.

ABSURDISM, EXISTENTIALISM, FREE WILL, POSTMODERNISM

 After the war, Introduction The first world war threw society into a state of disillusionment, and a fracturing of the staunch belief in morals became prominent, sparking literary advancements that challenged romantic ideals, advocating for a new perception of stability and sensibilities. In the poem Gerontion by T.S. Elliot, the modernist stance of fragmentation and the pursuit of purpose lies in man’s actualization of himself. Meanwhile, Samuel Beckett’s waiting for Godot written in the post-war environment of World War II can be viewed as an attack on modernism, rejecting its ideological claims to legitimise purposeful meaning that interprets the world of Estragon and Vladimir with a Grand Existential Narrative . Nonetheless, both these arguments provide a post-war lens that views life without inherent importance nor singular purpose/essence, resulting in the rise of ‘absurdism’— a search for answers in a world that offers no true answer . In this essay, the aforementioned conc...

7 WAYS for achieving your purpose

 CHOOSE YOUR DIRECTION make use of free will.   Jesus and the blind man. Why does Jesus ask him what he wants when it is obvious he want to see? Choose area (learning, marriage, finance, friendships) of importance to you, and make 3-10 goals. What measurable  and compelling goal is possible? Set the goal, and then you have the direction. Reticular activating system: it helps you find whatever you are focusing on.  E.g. Search for blue items. Okay, how many purple items are there? you don't know. Because you only focus on what you look for. Your brain gets excited and get power the moment it knows what direction it is about to take. Decide  your exact deadline when you will achieve it. Also, ascertain what you want to sacrifice . (time/money/patience/difficult situations) The price will be  "Where there is no vision, people perish"-Solomon  CHOOSE YOUR REASONS Do you have insight to yourself? Be a person of deep water, look deeper. Introspect. What...

Bredlik

 https://yeahwrite.me/writing-help-bredlik/ Bredlik isn’t as easy as it looks, folks. It’s a very tight form with very tight parameters. Technically bredlik is four lines (two rhyming couplets) in iambic tetrameter, or two stanzas of four lines each in iambic diameter with an ABCB rhyme scheme. The other thing that bredlik has going on is that the original poet took inspiration for the poem not only from the incident but from the fact that it happened in a re-enactor setting. So he used 18th century spellings (or reasonable facsimiles thereof) for some of the words.
