Fear
looking through time I shutter
for things done in the dark, I can't utter
whispers, secrets, and lies
flawed I'm told by design
madness followed I made a world of illusion
to protect an innocent mind from confusion
Beauty was our creation
tenderly we made all things lovely
each day a new exploration
we made heaven from hell in our confinement
it was not enough to put me away from Himself
time passed and he came to claim my son
creating a ball of fire
a light meant to warm some
and threaten...

Hymn to The White Spring
In the beginning I saw nothing
eyes furiously adjusting
between day and night
a woman held my hand down
those gnarled stone steps
as I teetered on the edge
of nerves and darkness
then, as if a dimmer switch
gently illuminated sight:
hundreds of candles
moss covered horns
a huge central pool carved
out of simplistic stone
overflowing with spring water.
I sat a little.
Watched naked humans climb
in and out of that...

Double Cross
Disturb my fragile sensibility
Disrupt the expectations of my wanting
When I chase temporal things to a fault
I fall pray in my humility to the Holy Ghost haunting
Answering the warning signs with replies of faith imbued by the call
What if there is something to it
When we dismiss the claims for broken records on repeat
Discerning truth amid the chaos of another’s source of vain conceit
The word is alive and I’m dead to rights
When I live subject to something divine
Shadows cast of unseen lights
The end doesn’t answer to my...

Laden, Lay Down To Die
confession number one I am afraid of being alone in this world adrift
my mind plays mean tricks on me
it makes up alternate realities when people are cruel
or when things get too rough and I break
never to trust it to protect
the first breakdown I had was when I was a little girl
pretending Mommy hadn't left me again
my abandonment issues are all too apparent
my weaknesses lay bare
the wolves smell blood on the air
and they approach
the one I'm married to only eats my heart out
leaving me to die a little...

Christ the Gardner
Ever since my accident
I had Jesus Christ (JC) become my Gardner
he's a slaphappy messiah
all he wants in life is kool-aid, scratch-offs and cigarettes
oh and he enjoys calling up Lucifer (Satan) to meet him at the bowling alley
the priests throughout the neighborhood dislike him
probably because he don't follow all the rules and guidelines,
that are scripted in that fictional book called the Bible
none of the nuns don't like his message (nuns have no fun)
those wrinkled up penguins
flock to my home to get a glimpse of him

OUT IN THE SEA
The storms are rising
Skies and clouds are compromising
So many plants will be dying
Everyone's running, everyone is hiding
The birds in bundles start flying ...
Could this be like Noah's days of surviving?
But You hear mermaid sirens
They sound beautiful on the evening horizon
There's no doubt the oceans shining
So I take out my diary and start writing
Out in the sea
Where it's just you and me
It's so dark not much you can see
Out in the sea
Where...

Attention all shoppers....
Okay here we go, let us speak about the white elephants in the game of life.
Pay close attention to what I have to say to you tonight, it may relate to you.
Do you ever feel picked on, maybe teased or a sense of self worthlessness for no reason at all? Me, too!
Have you ever wondered what was making you feel this way?
Well I’m here today to tell you my theory on the subject, it’s just my opinion,
Take it anyway you want to, but remember… you choose to keep reading this, I didn’t force this on you!
If you disagree with my...

For Christ’s Sake
How do we define this?
One man’s law is another man’s virtue
What’s the matter of our preference
What’s a matter of our politics
Where does it collide on the tracks?
Ethics and morality versus the philosophy of our own well being
Our comforts are megaphones for lies when indulgence takes the cake
Are we living for ourselves or does our worship embody our values for Christ’s sake?
Lost for the weight of issues what do I address
When it’s easier to point to someone else than gauge the damages of our own mess
Give me an...
