Illusionist


Illusionist

He took a quarter from behind your ear.

Made a box disappear.

Made water from a cage of pigeons.

I got everything I wanted and more.

I got to see everything.

What was most amazing was the melodic menagerie.

The harmony of the symphony.

Climactic elements swinging through the air.

 Elements melding, things disappearing in midair.

I think that I will never see anything as amazing as I did that night.

And then from that box that disappeared.

Appeared a smaller box.

Then he asked her to hold out her hand.

Placed the box in her hand, covered it.

Pulled the handkerchief away and on her finger was a ring.

A ring that shined like the stars.

Her eyes shimmered like the light off the ring.

I got down on one knee and asked her to share my soul.

The rest was pure magic.

Almost like a fairytale.

Never ending and never beginning.
I watch Penn and Teller's magic show on the CW. Well if I had a magician friend this is how I would propose. It would be awesome! This trick would be legen- wait for it- dary! I think if I could pull this off it would blow my mind like smoke and mirrors kind of craziness.
I sometimes think about how I'd propose to the One and this is one of my top favorite ideas.

Spirit filled vs religious vs spiritual

What is the difference between being religious, spiritual and spirit filled? Webster's dictionary says that being religious  is "relating to or manifesting faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity". Webster's dictionary says that being spiritual is "of, relating to, consisting of, or affecting the spirit or  concerned with religious values". According to the Collins English dictionary being spirit filled or the charismatic movement is this, " Christianity  any of various groups, within existing denominations, that emphasize communal prayer and the charismatic gifts of speaking in tongues, healing, etc". Here's my take on this, Jay Z said on  Watch the Throne, "You ain't gotta go to church to get to know yo' God" raps on the song Threat that he's killing people but it's a valid statement. I loved church, I guess but when life experiences change us as an young adult as in my bipolar manifestin...

The Lil' Pisser That Grew Two Stories

"I absolutely love how dumbed down society has become complaining about fairytales and comic book characters... The Brothers Grim wrote gruesome stories to scare children into doing good not feel all warm and fuzzy, that's the parents damn job... When I get a puppy I don't read him stories about Clifford the Big Red Dog to inspire him to grow up to be the size of a two story house. No I teach that stupid lil pisser that it's wrong to pee in the house then I give it chocolate after, so it knows it did a good job peeing on the pee pad on the patio... I'm just saying, I have some really great friends who are great parents, I hope... and I know some of you really do an amazing job. I'm just going to go out on a limb, because I don't work for them but... Disney messed this up for everyone..." I wrote this on Facebook... Because a friend's notification came to me after I got a little bit sassy from watching a comedy special... And boom! In the adv...

Music my lover!

I love music and it was used to hurt me. Music is my friend, I've always looked to it for motivation, ways to open my heart to new ideas and heal the pain. Music is my lover, my mother that draws me into the eternal planes of her bosom. I've never broken up with someone with music but it happened to me. While I am hurt by it, Music can never be ripped from my soul. I'll say it Music, you betrayed me, I share you with so many and you walk away from me. You say, Joshua, are you okay? I'll never leave music, my soul is clothed and tied to my heart that beats like a steel drum on Kingston's streets. It's fuel, she's a fire that allows me to be creative. Just as I paint my soul onto a canvas, I pour my heart out in words... words that can inspire love or evoke hate. I've never wanted to make anyone hate anyone or me for that matter. Love is what I have to give to the world, it comes out through all the pain or self inflicted torture. I won't walk away ...
