Human DNA: 3P's [Poem]


Parents’ relationship

Parental relationship

Personal childhood experiences/trauma



The things that make a human being**

besides The Trinity

you know, the three persons (that)

embody divinity,


The Creator, God Himself

& The Son that was sent for me,

+ The Spirit, or our conscience

that guideth us spiritually


in Their image, were made humans,

Three of Em, like peace corps

but sin had came about,

introduced us to three more**


what are those other three?

or the troubles (we) were faced with

root of all our issues

from the biggest to basic -est


the first contributing factor

is one’s parents’ relationships,

that itself affects you

no matter what age you is


God made us in love,

it’s reflective, but truth is

Imperfect parent “love”

with no effort

is useless


a child witnessing such toxicity

is cruel-ish,

& introduced to love later might

leave him clueless

but should it be the opposite route,

won’t be fruitless

your perseverance’s really why

you even do this


the second on the list is

one’s relationship(s) w parents

Dad should be protector

while Momma be more coherent


the issues in their life might not surface

or be apparent

but if their traumas linger

could press you to run like errands


the third one

is your younger child’s trauma/experience

our brains were once like sponges

while some hearts played curious


if parents knew everything,

I’m sure they’d be furious

from things that might make “no sense”

to matters more serious

like learning of adults

giving in to their prurience,

& folk who can’t

keep’ it 100

like centurions


that’s why no one can judge you

don’t matter (who) the jury is

we have beauties when it’s going good

& when uglies get hideous

but trusting in a God, in whose ways,

imperious,

it’s hard,

even when you feel robbed of (your)

innocence


I learned, that there’s beauty in each struggle tho,

in a sense,

we all somehow seem to need God

when weariest

sometimes He allows hurt,

even where your Achilles is

put promise(s) to stick by you

like Ferb & Phineas


the lenses of this poem

should show em, we all human

and some folks’ bad habits

ain’t 100% their doing,

even tho you draw you a line

accepting bull💩

think of their 3P’s ‘fore you

start selfishly assuming


even when the person you love

go acting stupid

& both knew love from (the) jump

& been struck in the a** by cupid

even when you pull out the arrow

you’ll still keep bruises,

to prioritize self-love

so authentic love

ain’t diluted


they might even cross you sometimes,

one time for Judas

you can feel a way if you want to, because you’re human

but even when ya feeling dejected

& kinda bluish

keep your Ps in check

& remember we’re all in schooling.
