Good Ancestor

Image
  GOOD ANCESTOR These lips are theirs, They tell me live.  This strong black nose,  Powerful, massive. This angled jaw, Cuts like knife.  If no you,  For me no life.  I wish I could,  Just see your face.  Offer thanks  For this their race.  I wonder what their word would be,  Could their eyes today see me? To aft or bow would they go? And perish in that sea below?  Or would their seed be cause enough,  for peace in a Jesus from Lübek?  The carrion call of treacherous ocean Or future cries of offsprings’ devotion?  These the broken ones,  Baptized in blood,  Are good ancestors Watching above. by: Planted Black Prose

Floral Arrangements

Pluck for me darling a pocket of posies.  Strip them of petals and lay them with roses. Snap them in pieces and bury with ashes.  Dye them with raindrops and burn them in batches  Plant now my darling a bed of gardenias. Plant for me tulips, daisies, hydrangeas. Feed them with passion and drench them with love. Guard them from john crows circling above. by: Planted Black Prose

One  is hard-pressed to locate the divine in an ontologically feminine figure in Judeo-Christianity.  The notions of divine identity within many branches of Protestantism is overwhelmingly static in its androcentricity. The customs, rituals and traditions passed on through the centuries have lauded and idealized the supreme being as wholly masculine in implicit and more alarmingly explicit ways. Th
