I dedicate this photo to Jimmy Dale Bland, who was terminally ill with a cancer, Patrick Knight and John Hightower.

They were murdered yesterday by the states of Oklahoma, Texas and Georgia.
since last night my heart is exploding with sadness and a huge revolt.

so, i created my light to illuminate their ways and our ways.
we must find urgently the door and window of the soul,
otherwise, we are nothing at all !!! do you think we are ???
without a mission, We are Not !!!

Kill Death Penalty NOW !!!

Nobody can give you freedom.
Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything.
If you're a man, you take it.

The Voice of the Rain

And who art thou? said I to the soft-falling shower,
Which, strange to tell, gave me an answer, as here translated:
I am the Poem of Earth, said the voice of the rain,
Eternal I rise impalpable out of the land and the bottomless sea,
Upward to heaven, whence, vaguely form'd, altogether changed, and yet the same,
I descend to lave the drouths, atomies, dust-layers of the globe,
And all that in them without me were seeds only, latent, unborn;
And forever, by day and night, I give back life to my own origin,
and make pure and beautify it;
(For song, issuing from its birth-place, after fulfilment, wandering,
Reck'd or unreck'd, duly with love returns.)

- Walt Whitman -

i will

there is no place for silence in my heart .....
there is no place for solitude too .....
wherever there is an injustice i will be part of it !!!
wherever you are i will be part of you !!!

till the sky

i still think bougainvilleas are able to grow up till the sky.
my soul weeps everytime i see one on the ground
and i pick it directly into my notebooks .....
in my childhood’s house they grew up everywhere climbing walls
around windows and doors to reach the birds and stars .....

they collect memories, you see .....
and all becomes alive !!!
