Pensamientos Poéticos: Honestidad
http://poesiamariarte.blogspot.com/2012/05/poesia-marirte-va-darte-honestidad.html
Wednesday, May 23, 2012. Me diste alas pa’ volar contra el viento. Y me dejaste como bruja sin vuelo. Aprendí a enfrentar el silencio. Y ver las cosas en poco mas lento. El tiempo no existe en mis pensamientos. Paz en la alma. Vengo/ me voy como el fuego. Horizons clash into life. Moonlight aligned with stars. Jumping through universes in verses. Le canto ala tierra, flow como alas en la agua. Eclipses clash in lines. Identity in my ability. To freestyle con estilo revolucionario. Callar la luz en mi ser.

Pensamientos Poéticos: Old Songs
http://poesiamariarte.blogspot.com/2012/06/old-songs.html
Tuesday, June 5, 2012. Que una cara bonita en un escenario. Semilla de revolucionarios, Vengo con un vocabulario. Sin las palabras de los académicos. Con poesía en versos. In places of mass incarcerations. The empire crumbles to dust. Pass the medicine, bonfires. We laugh n’ live on. Dos de la mañana con el sonido del mar en besos. Sin reglas, tres de octubre vi la luz. De este continente, tierra caliente. Nací calma como el sonido del tambor. Beats in-tune with prayers. Mi tierra ancestral Cherán. Wild ...

Pensamientos Poéticos: Conformity kills creativity
http://poesiamariarte.blogspot.com/2012/04/conformity-kills-creativity.html
Wednesday, April 18, 2012. Snap, take the photo. In this “reality show”. Ever-one wants to be famous. Obedient to rules set by white men. Living in a “face” instead reading a “book”. See vanity and egocentrism. Is no different than politrikkks cops lies on a megaphone. In a system created to keep us encage(s). Telling us to vote for the lesser of two evils. 8230;liberation on poverty slave wages. We lost in nations full of miscommunications. Where we believe the lies fed to us in tv stations. Fire and Wa...

Pensamientos Poéticos: Nace el día de Rebeldía
http://poesiamariarte.blogspot.com/2012/07/nace-el-dia-de-rebeldia.html
Friday, July 6, 2012. Nace el día de Rebeldía. With a banjo, underneath the moon). 8220;knowledge” given verbally. En tiempos de guerras. Viajando en las nubes negras. In places of conformity. Labels never fitted me. So I embrace curiosity. With a cry of rebellion. Come back to life. Arriba del árbol escondido en sueños. Llego con alma de fuegos. Sin explicar el sentido de la vida en versos. Gathering stories to guide us across voyages. Pealing layers, believing in ancestors’ prayers. So vibrantly lost in.
