Indomitable August!!! Brown Liquor Grown Folk Brilliant Bridge Poetry Corner

Brilliancy!!!

Oh here come that man.
Adept2u in the house
Don't know ask around.

I'm looking for it. Got what I need?
I want your rhyme, do I gotta plead?

INDOMITABLE AUGUST!!!

Let me try and paint the emotion of what I'm looking for.

When I was 7 years old I fell out a 2nd story window and broke the Earth's arm.

Soon after I precociously pissed in the gas tank of a Datsun pickup truck. That vehicle is now Optimus Prime.

The Scylla and Charybdis are trapped between ME!!!

I was once swimming in the Atlantic and was brushed by a ship‪#‎RIPHMSTitanic‬

When he heard they were talking about me Shaft told them to shut their mouths.

They opened Pandora's Box to find me playing Spades and trump tight.

I can't be faded
‪#‎BlackGirlMagic‬ Favored Son
Incandescent Sun

‪#‎haiku‬

Do you feel me?

THEN SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT!

Throttle This Facebook

Well now after hearing what Facebook did to all the posts I so lovingly selected and wrote I decided to build another span of the Bridge Google+ Home yes now The Brilliant Bridge spans to Google plus.

I don't know how it runs looks like nobody likes me but I don't care.  The Brilliant Bridge went live on FB almost a month ago and all the brilliant posts and programming you found on FB is now on Google+.

Next stop INTERNET DOMINATION THEN THE WORLD!!

Facebook Throttles Brilliant Bridge

A Light on the Bridge asks hey how come I come to the Brilliant Bridge Page here on FB and I see all this fantastic content that I never see on my newsfeed what gives?

That is a great question I’m so happy someone asked.

You see Facebook has a process they call throttling. That means that despite how much you might like to see the posts of the Brilliant Bridge or any of your friends despite the fact you told them you liked it and wanted to see the notifications, Facebook says NO!

Facebook wants the Brilliant Bridge to pay for the right to receive information that you have requested from social media the eyes on the page and the normal clutter of ads on the right of the screen are just not enough for them.

Brilliant Bridge is so non profit it expects the Universe to supply the means for any physical existence, and it is going to expect those members of the Bridge who want to see this fantastic content to seek it out.

If you want more feed from Brilliant Bride you’ll need to go through and like as many posts as you can.

Will they then give you more?  I don’t know.

Will I ever see everything?  Got me

Does it matter?  Nope

You can come to the Brilliant Bridge page anytime you like.  It is serving the exact purpose I had foreseen which was to provide the nursery where the baby Brilliant Bridge lives right after birth.

Whatever Facebook

Thanks to the Lights on the Bridge who see and participate.

Namaste Friends!

Someone went INCADECSENT on the Brilliant Bridge

No, I am not saying that participation in the Brilliant Bridge Poetry Corner ignites your life and magical things happen to you.  This young man already had all that going on before he joined the Brilliant Bridge and gave me a poem to rock last Friday.

But look what My Negus did on Mother's Day

Brilliant Bridge Spark of Serendipity

A light on the Bridge asks, Adept2u this idea of Serendipity you have in your title and mission what do you mean by that and do you know in Jerry McGuire it’s spelled KWAN not Quan?

I’m extremely pleased you asked answering questions helps me think.

When Adept2u went to school they didn't have all this wonderful media we have today.  We had films and presentations they made in the 50’s and 60’s before society went cheap and stopped producing new things for children.  They don’t even have Saturday morning cartoons anymore, but at any rate, they had one film I just loved about how nuclear material makes an atomic explosion.

It starts with a trigger explosion and then the power of the explosion runs away as individual atoms are torn asunder and send bullets of power to liberate the energy of other atoms.  Well I’ve been told that the power of Serendipity runs in a very similar manner.  By whom you might ask?  Well that’s an answer I’m on the Bridge to find out as well.

Now about the Quan and again I’m very pleased to answer the question.

Orphaned Africa

Adopted Five Families   

Black Yankee Shaolin

I’ve spoken about my time with the Job Fairs.  Well I’m in I think Detroit during the early part of my career then and it hits me.  Hey you can’t fight.  Like if someone slapped you you’d just cry and take it.

I've never been one to allow a hole in my abilities to remain unfilled so I researched what martial art I would take.

Quan Yin Kung Fu/Tai Chi

I've been a long time on that path my belt is J.C. Penny 5.99

Quan is a Chinese expression of the whole the entirety a sort of feminine I am because it also carries an essence of feminine divinity, which I also talked about.

Jerry Maguire?  Yeah I’m going for that too.  I love double entendre pun type things and many times when folk don’t understand me they go home a day later and laugh their asses off when they get it.

The love of puns as high art was born with Piers Anthony.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_View

As an example of the powerful influence of Serendipity another Light on the Bridge the tremendous Miranda Chop and I were talking about some rivets etc on order for the Bridge and a motto fell out.

 Brilliant Bridge Voice Training Your Prophetic Song

*Finger Snaps* 

Remember to get your poetry ready and in my possession before say 4:30 PM PST Friday for entry in the Poetry Corner.

Brown Liquor Grown Folk Brilliant Bridge Poetry Corner

Here's another collection of haiku, but this time I collected them with a special purpose outside of my own trippy musings. I've begun a Facebook movement I'd like to see grow into real life and into lots of things called Brilliant Bridge our motto is 

We are a band of optimists claiming our world back from the control of fear, time and money. We are siblings devoted to increasing Serendipity in life.

If that’s something you could stand behind please join us on the Bridge, but the reason for the collection is we have us a good old fashioned Brown Liquor Grown Folk Brilliant Bridge Poetry Corner happening, and as I threw the first rivet in the Bridge I’m playing!

I have an advantage I compose Haiku, but there’s no rule about how you can’t be poetic as a normal course of your day, in fact…I think it’s a Brilliant Idea.

4/15/15

My prince rambunctious

The world's to small to hold you

Grampy's arms will try

4/24/15

Be the Brilliant Bridge

A Butterfly Beats Its Wings

Launch a thousand ships 

4/25/15

Black man oasis

Gotta tighten those edges

So fresh and so clean

4/30/15

Ah human hubris

Can't understand each other

God we can speak for

4/30/15

I sit in my yard

Imagining a concert

I got the aux cord  

5/3/15

Serious business

Exploring the Universe

Lift off little man   

5/4/15

Michael put it down

We danced most furiously

The Brilliant Bridge life  

*Finger snaps*  Get you some of that.  Do you have to produce a multimedia extravaganza to participate?  NO!  leave whatever you want as a message to the group.  I’ll collect everything and make a blog out of it for publication as part of the normally Brilliant offerings.

What a great idea thanks to the Poet Laureate for providing Brilliant inspiration.
