Weber’s poetry defies traditional structures, opting for an abstract style that does not follow strict grammatical or rhyming guidelines.

This unorthodox approach ensures that Letters to the World challenges and engages readers, leaving a lasting impact on how they perceive both the written word and the issues of the day. This daring style is designed to convey the complexities of modern existence, offering readers a rich tapestry of interpretations through a myriad of poetic devices.

Letters to the World invites readers to look beyond the surface, encouraging them to think critically about the topics it addresses. Through this work, Weber hopes to inspire conversation and reflection on the world’s most pressing challenges. Each piece serves not only as an artistic expression but also as a call to action, urging readers to examine their beliefs, values, and the societal landscapes they inhabit. The collection’s abstract style allows for a diverse array of interpretations, encouraging readers to draw their own conclusions and engage in dialogue about the pressing matters highlighted in the verses.

13. Letters to the World I:
…before we begin, a few notes from the author: “I write about things I experience, things that anger me or inspire me…Nothing but the old ‘Sunday Funnies.’
“I don’t consider myself to be a poet, I just want to be heard. Just like a baby cries for urgency; there is an urgency, perhaps perseverance in my soul that needs to be heard, criticized or maybe even exploited.”
“My inspiration is Nature, or should I say natural? Nevertheless, my young, inexperienced ‘works’ are raw and simple. My drive comes from my experiences in this fast paced, quick kill sort of world we live.”
“Call it what you’d call it anyways…Me? Why I call it a world sewer that overflowed onto my paper.”
…and now we begin:
Letters to the World
by Jesus Rafael Weber
Some of The Explanations
*The following explanations are just a few from my published book available in Kindle, digital media and paperback. They are readily available at any major retailer.
Poem #32 This poem is about my Mother that gave me birth. She had me at the age of 15 years old. My father was also 15 years old.
Poem #37 This poem is about me accepting my role to listen, and follow through with the conversations I have had with GOD, and some other men taking the responsibility to be the Pope, Bishops, and Priests.
Poem #38 This poem is about heart-to-heart love and "messages" between lovers. For example engaged and or married couples.
Poem #47 This poem is about a daily prayer to GOD and All HIS Angels.
Poem #48 This poem is about prejudice and how education can lift their spirits and help them to get on their way to more equality if they work hard and have faith.
Poem #63 This poem is about someone that is fixed on committing suicide. If you see their signs intervene and get help for them.
Poem #88 This poem is about me having already lived two infinities and starting a third. It is also about my "signs" and symbols. My Taurus is very often spoken of closely to my actual personality traits when speaking about astrological signs, i.e., the 12 Zodiac Signs.
Poem #121 This poem was inspired by the singer and songwriter "Michael Franti" and his band "Spearhead" from his album "Stay Human".
Poem #122 This poem is about the signs I have seen in the skies about GOD, CREATION, "Pink" and how GOD communicates with those resting in peace that HE wakes up to discuss the modern day and about past lifetimes.
*I utilized a paperback book; however, the Kindle and digital media book has more pages; however, the same amount of poems. There is a lot of symbolic, deep, and abstract references to GOD and of GOD. I started this book in High School and published it in "Star Date": 2024. Today is Saturday, January 3, 2,026 A.D. I only believe in one GOD, yet I accept all religions that don't sacrifice animals, people, nor themselves to commune with GOD. In fact with honesty, respect and love you can build and grow your own personal relationship with GOD with both worship, and respectful, honest conversation. I urge you try and talk to GOD today and get healed once a week in your place of meeting and worship, i.e., a church, mosques, temples, synagogues, gurdwaras, Fire Temples, etc., even just out in Nature or under the Skies is ok. Never forget to "feel small" when you walk or stand beside the ocean, mountains, and trees.
