Matrix Moments

Media Moments: Question, reflect, connect

Speak Sparks

What do you declare?
What words fall death
Lilting lies
Gossip slights,
Silent sighs.
Do you watch
what is spoken 
from your heart?
Uplifting life
from your lips
Voicing the remarkable
Agreeing with heaven
Agreeing with God
Speaking today’s
love spark.

Starting Thoughts: Words are so powerful. Gossip, lies, truth, negativity, positivity, honour (honor) all from words that spin in our minds or from our lips.

Do we use our words to buld and honour (honor) others. Poem.

Trying to Say

A haunting realness
trapped in me, 
mind encapsulated, 
A shell curled 
buried on the beach,
life hidden 
lonely,
crashing waves around 
non-person in a crowd 
quietness in the rage 
gems in the mud.

I could speak, 
there's something there, 
a hidden seed thought 
a truth
a reality,
I open my lips 
and say something else... 

Lying words on
dreams of 
inner truth.

Prompt
How hard is it to speak the truth? We want to speak the reality, instead we tell the lie.

The lies we tell when we want to tell truth.

Channel Surfing

Channel surfing…
All I can eat
All mine
Yet never me,
Entertainment worlds in a button,
All the colour, life and choice,
Yet lifeless, death in pixels
Nothing that means,
No connections,
Ads and advertising 
Promises and pleasures,
High definition creations
Giving blurred zero self-images
Unreal masquerades of the real.

Can I 
Leave the hate
Lose the forgery and fakes
Vacate negativity
Cut the crap
from my life,
Take any truth
I hear and see
and become different?

In a world without reason
feeding lies to sensations
where lies my lifeline?

Starting Thoughts: We live in a saturated media world that is sucking more and more reality from our identity and relationships, death by a thousand pixels in many ways. Is there an answer to the rising mental health and anxiety issues in our world?
