Act like a Lady, Think like a Man

A Buried Past, Chp 13 of 44

Khanya Maselela
Exposure

do not forget the gravitational thoughts

a force that can fill you up

with some sugar sweet joy

over & over again

joy

a comfortable feeling

recognizable by a soft smile

like a quiet hummingbird

to rejoice the joy with joy

an indescribable

feeling

disproportionate by hunger

an eternal feeling

internally external

an inherited feeling

a present moment

experienced throughout time

a bag of joy to receive

a life designed to bring joy

well packaged in a sign of contention

growing bigger & bigger

like a movie star that shines

star light, star bright

first star I see tonight

grant me a wish please

for old times sake

to soften a metaphorical childlike manner

an entry into the heart of gold

to glare at the glories

of the heavens

casted with wild imaginations

slithering in between the grass routes

passed the cliffs into the valley

deep in the waters

across the skies

down & up

left & right

towards salvation at all flaws

opening doors to a new kingdom

now & forever more

recognize the works of your hands

during your singing moments

a true blessing

disguised as tools

used to translate a vinni vidi vici

to a

I came, I saw, I conquered

a source of income to meet

an obedient victory over matter

opening up the blessings

for others to freely be...

closing down the curses

to liberate others

see it through the believing sights if the believers

crossing the crossroads with a metal cross

a mark of treasure

lighting up

a treasure hunt to engage in

together as one

when two or more are gathered in my name

I am amongst them

a riddle to read a road map

that will lead us to the marked treasure

a chest, a key, a lock...

now I see some light peeping through

from the insides of the dark

weaving the souls together

an alignment of times

trust, believe & honor

from a cage

both souls are released from disagreements

an awkward relationship

progressing as one energy

a force that succeeds satisfactorily

a traditional prophesy to be fulfilled

at times moving too fast for my own good

getting lost at times

established a new set of networks

psychic portals to create

different characters played

a crossover

an explanation

back in time together as one

just to show you that it can be done

history...one of the best times

to remain still & standing

forgetting not the way back home

a magic lamp

lit to ensure a safe journey return home

like a movie it plays out

articulating the exact causes & effects

replicating...duplicating

jogging memories

a past lifetime

reasons behind way back then

my favorite time to visit

confidently reading the events

that has happened

because of this main cause

a future lived for today

a tomorrow decided

by a change of fate

a new awareness

to create & recreate

foretelling, only for you to notice a plan that unfolds

option A

option B

each choice divining its own plan

not to miss the point here

yes!

time it will take a willing spirit to strengthen...

a spiritual strategy to manifest

placed in perfect timing

a force to be reckoned with

second chances to reconsider a choice

made out of pressure

to fulfill a path lost

decisions decisions

time constraint

a different kind of life to live

god is the creator of a technology we call

Christianity

practiced by many

some disappointed at the moments where it didn't work for them

some judging each other's extent knowledge of this technology

not everything inside the technology

will work for everyone

some parts of the technology is meant for the certain

some parts is made for the unsure

the deep rooted

the composure

the intensity

the lifestyle

impatience with the creator of perfection

is a waste of thoughts

but everyone has prayed

in tongues

in magic

sing the spirits to reach the point

of the creator's view

the word is good enough

branching purposely

a technology that uses mental control

to justify the mathematical magic behind the bible

mix & matched for the sake of a beautiful mind

looking forward to the new edition

a lifetime commitment to shift over the hardships of existence

gambling with the time behind the inheritance of a

g.o.d

& the reasoning behind an

a.m.e.n

forever is a long time

to represent a curse unknown

or a blessing unheard of

waiting longer than death

not to instill fear

just to extend the thoughts

a bit broader than before

awarded 90%

for taking them with me

on my particular journey

to better understand

the ways to fulfill

their existence

all this time

feeling alone & not aware

just being watched over

a set of eyes

a third point to rectify

killer instincts to sharpen

how much can you see

they all wondered

& then a vision

a narrow path towards a destination

to bring the beat back

where did you get it from

a continued wonderment

I thought I got it from you

shattered a stone into a thousand pieces

silent thought:

they don't know my passion

they don't know well

asked for a prayer from the big man himself

reminded me of a night dream I once had

a visit to the graveyard site

a father, a mother, a child

kneeling down at the foot of stones

surrounded by the curses of the unknown

introduced myself as one of their own descendants

disguised as women

they proclaimed that they don't know

a me, myself & I

a thousand times sleepovers

we were all surprised

a broken mirror I became

a treasure hunt for a reality

the dream came to an end

only to come true later in life

a voice of a woman to meet

trouble, trouble

gave me some conflicts

using guilt to control some issues

scanning the petite

scanning in wonderland

where do you hide your gifts...

in my shadow

but of course you cover it in your own manipulations

no wonder you cannot see them

a shadow is easier & faster to use

traveling & coaching my sights

to reach a full shade of emotions

24th April 2008

06:45 am

received a revelation

from own gloomy side of existence

for reconstruction purposes

an extreme makeover

associate

relate, think

smile

a fast spiritual advancement

physically remaining still

listening

like an alien that learns

new ways

new things

had a conversation with my shadow

a shadow of doubt

a misplaced trust

& all this time talking to myself

a maniac level of magical moments

finally chatting on line

with the real me

a lucky charm handed over

noted differently by many

a voice to follow

to find my own

caught in between the crossroads

it's amazing how the sun & the moon

can share space with the stars

it is amazing how a shadow of doubt

is reflected by two super powers

portraying trust issues

private moments

a gangster like approach

armed & dangerous

armored in bling bling & all

sparkle sparkle

here & there

sick & tired

only minute to think

places faces

shadows alike

deep rooted in confusion & depression

listening to some more

trying to grasp the idea

the purpose of basking in the sun

behind a trust destroyed

a cloak I see

a combination of all the colors

smoothing tones

a final era for the late descendants

a black shadow

a mixture of harmonized colors

ready to become a self portrait

bouncing up grief

back & forth

dressing the black

a color used to grieve in

grieving over a loss

mourning over the change

like a chameleon

that adapts to its environment

sighted walking across

the front gate

symbolizing a one step forward

a two step back

in with the new

a black color

to reveal a true identity crisis

true shadow emotions

a well organized man

a woman

highly involved with individual judgments

highly seeking for congregational assignments

a two in one with a pipe

scouting for those who misuse their ancestors

against female principalities

sent to comfort

a warrior sent to assist

in my shadow I glare

a man with a beard I see as well

light in color

white in cloaks

bald headed & all

an emperor's cloth to eye

seat of the soul to admire

yin & yang

a very beautiful velvet gown

collar in maroon color

then a queen from the olden era appears

a thinker of great thoughts

my shadow reveals

in the darkness it can hide

afraid to come out at times

to show its truest nature

to a world divided by perceptions

a young white girl once asked me if I was black

well the last time I checked

I was black alright

& that was 30 minutes ago

well black people don't usually have their tattoos

professionally marked

she said

a very primitive way of looking at things

let me complicate your mind 4 a minute or 2

for goodness sake

a thinker of thoughts

thinks thoughtfully

about the thoughts that think for themselves

a thought of thoughts

to monitor while getting through

the thoughts that count

a thinking thought

that thinks about thoughts

great minds think alike

they think, think & think

& think some more

they think so much

even think the thoughts away

& start all over again

negative thoughts to demolish

money makes the world easier

demolish a course by lighting a lightning

go-away-evil-thoughts incense

demolish first before it hits you hard

so lighten up

shadow emotions can be overshadowed by a sweet smell

when you think better

you know better

& of course you do better

a negative thought can remain

after some heavy black references

black reflections

a black culture

stating that I am not black enough

a black sheep of the family

amongst black

a black belt

a sign of achievements in martial arts

a black box

an aircraft's flight recorder

an essential tool

a black consciousness

towards change

black economic empowerment

a black list of black markets

black power

a blackout

a black knight

a dark night

spiritual blackmails

a blacksmith with luck horse shoes

black salt

confused imaginations of ancestral background

fighting over the turf

blood red

neither black or the opposites

caught in the middle of standpoints

which side to choose

a bilingual spiritual industry

an ancestral battle over color

the base of this kind of war

white is light

black is darkness

a battle of the centuries

a mediator to become

by the way

I am still searching for my own rights

a battlefield to change into

black hides too many secrets

said Mr. White

white is a control freak

& a bit slow if you ask me

said Mr. Black

now this battle will take forever

keeping times

hoping & praying for the end to set me free

during the patient moments

a memory if a dream appears

two gigantic gorillas

going at each other's throats

two men noted behind these masks

Mr. B

I have this to give you..

mine is bigger than yours

replied Mr. W

Mr. B

yeah right!

I can work for a madam

I am not sure about Mr. W

Mr. W

you don't know me very well

Mr. B

a diamond to please my lady

Mr. W

told you mine was bigger than yours

both parties existing in lightness & in darkness

the blind leading the blind

Mr. B

yoga is a complicated science

appease the general ways

to stretch you further

Mr. W

she needs to heal

so let it go

Mr. B

I see that you are still trying to dominate the oppressed

Mr. W

I see that you still think that you are oppressed

ran away from both parties

a tough decision to administer

leaving the men at work

while I commune with the ladies

lost some of my roots

retired from mediator-ship

a woman amongst men

an ancestral world full of pride & prejudice

dominated by testosterone

still fighting for territory

forgetting all about the work

that needs to be done

I am a shadow of light

proceeded forward without their consent

you will need our strength

Mr. B + Mr. W = a common thought

90% of the deed is done

5% to contribute by each

the ladies are charge now

end of story

end of wars

then I listened to another battle

in order to understand it

I am an African

four words to count the days of the week

a spiritual cloak misplaced

a divine power amongst great men

two Mr. B's

a party of 2 to attend

a wish to reconcile

beyond miracles, beyond spirituality

a wish to party together

share glories after the struggles

a powerful force to be assessed

equally strong in their own roots

men of stature seated together

with mint cigars + the company of fine whiskey to enjoy

a bit chilly outside

late afternoons

early mornings

late nights

before sunrise

two white candles I see

shining differently

inside out

a blade in between

traditional shields set aside

defining divine positions of power

one marked by the other

until a dagger was exposed

its backside up

slicing through the earth

dividing energy

supplies vs. demand

a sacrifice of thy will

a hand shake that agrees

only to realize an infiltration

a picture...a painting that watches

one light skinned

one dark toned

one big, one small

one educated, one not

one white crowned

the other none

one silver suit, one chocolate suit

a force to challenge

with only one weakness to use

promiscuous thoughts to challenge

agreements to dominate the opposite sex

whatever it takes

I am a feminine specie

to emphasize Adam's downfall

a personal fight between two Mr. B's

over what

over her

like a rebel trapped in between

a student, a master

trading places

switching cases

cant waste my time with a personal fight

that infiltrates & disrupt my own way of living

a professional life created

a personal life in non-existent, cease mode

& so I started digging some more

a dangerous move

according to the underworld

digging in the past is prohibited

memories appeared

took me to my training sessions

boot camp... to describe it better

the fire ancestors

almost burned my work

so I decided to take my work with me

saved my life

3 types of combinations to be told of

associating the similarities was hard

brothers, cousins, friends, foes

colleagues, partners

the living & the noted

two non livings or two livings

soul mates

a traditional way to use energy

carefully studied

a handing over

highly skilled to perform for remunerations

a livelihood not an amateur hood

two Mr. B's

lets start with a living man who consults

with a spiritual ancestor

wiser & older of course

spiritual tears to wipe clean

counting age as a form of commitment to life

committed to the creator of life

forgetting the spiritual commitments that count for many

information to hide from the seeker

politically, spiritually & economically

like my shadow I will survive the truth

& what is the truth

maybe a quality of state of being true

a divine supreme court

death fury

death row

associate

once upon a time

there was a brave little candle

& a barrier line

once upon a time there was a barrier line

an earthen pot full of blue waters

covered in red, white & blue

a side view consultation

from the left facing the west

a magic lamp in place

the elements of fire contained

sparkle sparkle

flames on fire

a left-handed handle to the core

another earthen pot

full of sandy earthen

a two-toned shield laying beside

laying beside

the king of the jungle

the king of pop

a straight & narrow path

hidden music

hidden sounds

the earth rolling to revolutionize

a seeker to watch

a traditional bag to make

full of professional goodies

a sight for sore eyes

a smile

another lucky charm

behind a barrier line

a priest with too many ladies among his aura

crying to use my ears

to hear better

tried to use my eyes to see clearer

promising to bring them back

trust issues to be defeated

playing delaying tack ticks

doctor patient confidentiality

a teacher principal conference

what does she know about me

a suicide note to read

suicide: an intentional killing of one self

or a course of action that is destructive to your own interest

let me clarify

not a love letter

spiritual work requires change

natural death is timely based

forced death is marked

like an assassination

spiritual death is the direct opposite of suicidal death

spiritual death

unintentionally dying before your age

an angel of death to become

to release the dark from the light in a nice way

spiritual killings

shadow emotions & worse

cries, tears & worse

a mummy's tear in a daddy's eye

a father's fear in awe

an angel of death to cease the moment

posing to the cameras

shared thoughts

an angel & I

an angel of death hiding from death itself

death hiding from the lights

lights switched back on

to understand the effects

truth be told

to set you free

mind, body & soul

a spirit that flows

in between the forces of nature

an angel of death

death & I

I am not ready to leave this planet so soon

a passover from generation to generation

a conventional means to a professionally

Mr. Traditional

I will lower my spear that faces your heart

Mr. Contemporary

I will remove my gun from your brains

deal sealed by shaking hands

contracts signed to make it stick

in a ghost format it is destined

a passing over

from a struggling industry

a ship to sail across the open seas

another unknown to explore

knocking some out of the sky

lighten up
