Some Written poetry.
Keir (key- air) focuses on three types of poetry. Lyric, Narrative, and prose poetry.
The Artist
by Keir (key-air)
The Artist is a creative being,
sometimes flowing between reality and immortality
and different dimensions.
Of course, while sober and not under the influence of anything.
There are no boundaries to the artist imagination,
for he or she flows in and out of the boundaries,
to be creative.
With his or her antennas up,
Ready to receive new revelations, enlightenment's and
creative ideas to manifest in this world.
What was revealed to him or her by the Father of Lights.
While walking down the street,
in bed in the middle of the night,
driving down the street while looking at billboards.
With Antennas up.
The Creative Energy flows to us at any time.
We reach, snatch, and grab for a piece of paper and pen to write it all down.
Before the enlightenment, the revelation and the creative energy stops flowing.
I must write it down or speak into a tape recorder before it is lost.
24 Tracks of music, flowing thru my mind,
lyrics and all coming to me,
complex keyboard runs that I do not have the skills to play yet.
Yet, I must capture as much of the creative energy as I can before it is lost.
Because what I take down with pen and paper can effect someones life, in a
positive way.
The rest of their lives.
To make change.
And I'm not talking about nickels, dimes and quarters
but positive change.
In your life and others, to make all of our lives to be better.
So we, the artist, walk around with our antennas up.
Waiting for the Father of Lights to deposit more
of his creative ability, wisdom , enlightenment and direction
to manifest in this earth.
For the benefit of others.
Are you an artist?
Do you have your antennas up?

The Dream.
by Keir
The Dream, is what was programmed in you before you were born.
It's what brings you happiness, inner peace and passion.
And causes time to stand still while your performing your dream.
Follow the original programming that was placed in you before you were born.
While performing your dream, hours and minutes, stand still,
no time clocks to punch in and no ignorant bosses to stress you out.
The manifestation of or rather the physical appearance of most peoples dreams,
have not taken place.
That's because most of us have been caught up in the "ocean of life",
also known as the world system.
The world system tells us it's definition of success
and many have been taken down, under the ocean by the current.
These are they who have chosen to follow the flow of the current,
which is to follow the worlds systems definition of success.
Instead of following the passion that's been placed in their hearts,
the dream that was placed in there hearts before they were born.
Instead of following that deep hunger in our souls to create, change, rearrange
and make to come to pass "the passion".
That was put in our minds eye, of what we always wanted to do with our lives
and what we said we would do as children, when we grow up.
Somehow many have become distracted by the oceans current,
flowing with the masses, of unsatisfied people,
who have not fed the hunger to fulfill the dream,
their dream.
The results are manifested in the form of : ulcers, sleepless nights, anxiety, burnout.
Flowing with the oceans current, with the masses.
How many people do you know, who will tell you with a straight face, that they truly
love what they do? Not many, many will tell you that they just fell into a position,
or that they don't know how they ended in the position their in.
Many are flowing under water and not able to get out of the ocean,
no boat, no paddle and no life jacket. Just another "cog in the machine",
until being lay-ed off from work.
Some people feel that now that they are in "the winter" of their lives,
that it's too late to fulfill their dreams. I'm not talking about having great riches
or great honor but doing that, that brings happiness on the inside.
It's not too late to fulfill your dreams.
You are only restricted by the negative words that are coming out of your mouth,
and the negative thoughts you refuse to cast down.
These are they that need a "mind transplant".
For there is nothing impossible to them which believe
and who believe in themselves.
For the Creator has given the believers authority, over this world.
Dominion to over come.
But the way to get out of the ocean or stream is to do, Your Dream.
Much planning, much perseverance will get you there.
And many will stare, because they will see you doing.
What You were programmed to do, before you were born, by the Creator.
And living in a place of peace and happiness and where Time, is no more.
Your Dream, Your talent, will bring you success.
With work, patience, perseverance your soul will have, much rest.

The Virtuous Man
by Keir
Who can find the Virtuous Man? His price is far above gold and platinum.
This man is bold but he cannot be sold, for he is sold out to his family.
He works hard to provide for them financially.
Nurturing the little ones as they grow up.
But this man can be found.
The virtuous man does not need to seek after pharmaceuticals.
For this man gets High, off of spending time with his family.
Nurturing his family and helping his family to Grow.
As a well watered, well fertilized beautiful flower.
His Light helps the flower to grow.
The virtuous man, understands that he must not just provide for his family
financially.
But that he must nurture his families souls,
with love, affection, attention.
This man is not one who disappears at nite, running the streets.
Seeking after, strange women.
That will leave him broke, busted, discuss-ted.
Going home with no money.
The virtuous man, understands that he must feed his family spiritually,
with the Word.
That will strengthen and make their spirits grow.
Are you he.
The virtuous man, is caring and generous and gets involved with the community.
Helping the needy, not greedy.
For this man understands that the good that he does for others, shall come back to
him in time.
So he sows goodness, all around. Knowing that what he has planted,shall come back to him, in abundance, in time.
The virtuous man, is wise and seeks after wisdom from above.
For Wisdom, will show him how to build riches in his own house.
For a hard working wise man shall stand stand before kings.
Wisdom, is the ability to apply knowledge correctly.
Are you this virtuous man?
If not, then follow the road map that I just lay ed out for you.
The Virtuous man, understands.
He has a plan. Peace

Unemployed
by Keir (key-air)
I once knew a man that was unemployed.
Under so much pressure and stress from not being able to pay his bills,
he was greatly annoyed.
Having worked for so many years,
helping family members financially,
calming their fears.
But this man had no more to give.
Many of his friends and family members acted like,
He did not live.
Non existent this man became in many of his friends and
family members lives.
This brother's down on his luck, you can see it, in their eyes.
Such a very bad hand that this man was dealt.
Many of this mans friends and family,
barely lifted a finger, to give this man help.
Except for his mother and grandmother,
on a very fixed income.
They did what they could to make sure that he had some,
some money for gas, some food to eat,
and mom gave some money so that her son,
would not be put out, into the street,
This man continued and pushed on to look for a job.
He would refuse to listen to the devil and give into the
temptation to rob.
For this man continued to walk by faith and to believe in His God.
For this mans God promised, to meet all of this mans needs,
in His Word.
So this man continued to stand and believe in His God's Word.
He knew that if he continued to believe,
his prayers would be heard.
In a quite time of prayer he heard,
that he was to remember the past victories,
and how he was brought thru in the past.
And as he was going thru this test, trial, and tribulation.
That this to shall not last, but shall also, pass.
That this state of Unemployment,
shall be turned into Re-Employment.
These words are to encourage you, to stay the course.
The Blessing, is just around the corner,
an Abundant Resource.

Words
by Keir (key-air)
We do hear the words coming out of your mouth,
but are you really saying anything.
Like a facet that continually drips, over and over and over and over again, into the nite.
Keeping you awake.
And having try-ed everything in your power to stop the facet from dripping,
it continues.
The agonizing, Drip, Drip, Drip, Drip, Drip, which gets on your nerves.
Some peoples words are so: non productive, counter productive and destructive.
The Words.
That stir up confusion in many people's lives.
Words, that are spoken to deceive and cause illusion,
to hide the inadequacies and pain that some feel inside,
the confusion manifested on the outside, from the confusion and unstableness on
the inside.
We do hear the words coming out of your mouth,
but are you really saying anything.
Words that discourage, down grade, degrade.
Words that lie over and over again.
Words that cannot be trusted.
Brother, you've been busted.
Girl, you said that you were spending sometime with your self.
You, had a plan.
Your Husband called your job.
Found out that you were on vacation, with another man.
Oh, Oh.
The truth will set you free but many are 1 million miles away from the truth.
And cannot stand to see the type of person that they've become.
Because the words out of their mouths have ensnared them.
Words.
Should bring life and encouragement to someone Else's life.
That we have faith in them, and that we love them, and that we believe in them
and that we know that they can do whatever they set there minds to do.
And that they will do a good job,
And it's good that you gave to someone in need.
And that was a good dinner that you cooked.
And you know, I appreciate you.
Thanks for taking good care of me and others.
And I want you to know son, that I'm proud of you.
Thanks for getting good grades in school and for staying out of trouble.
And I want you to know that I'm proud of you for helping that little girl
the other day with her homework.
And Honey, I Love You.
for what reason?
do I gotta have a reason?
I just Love You.
LET YOUR WORDS GIVE LIFE,
LET YOUR WORDS GIVE LIFE,
LET YOUR WORDS GIVE LIFE,
We do hear the words coming out of your mouth.
But are you really saying anything?
we do hear the words coming out of your mouth.
But are you "really" saying anything?
Are you really saying anything?
