the Blood of My Soul
My finger was cut and I saw my blood dripping into a pool
I knew my blood was real, no more a mystery
I was warned, old to be careful, but how was I to know
Blood was just a word painted red in my head
I did not believe the truth I could not see
But now I know and I know seeing is not believing
Seeing imparted knowledge of the red liquid flowing within me
My flesh was opened by a lightning bolt one bright and sunny day
But only one tiny drop of red blood seeped out
Still there was a pool of light gathering beside my wound
As the thunder...
I knew my blood was real, no more a mystery
I was warned, old to be careful, but how was I to know
Blood was just a word painted red in my head
I did not believe the truth I could not see
But now I know and I know seeing is not believing
Seeing imparted knowledge of the red liquid flowing within me
My flesh was opened by a lightning bolt one bright and sunny day
But only one tiny drop of red blood seeped out
Still there was a pool of light gathering beside my wound
As the thunder...

Faith, in Chains
( uncut version )
When the weather takes a turn
For the worst of how you feel.
Ripped down to bare bones that burn,
Stripped down to your cage of steel.
I’m the lover waiting there,
In the deepest of your pain.
Lets you know your heart I’ll wear,
Locked it with your ball & chain.
Sudden glimpse the underworld,
I furtive meet another.
Brazen crave, the other’s furled,
Of every man his brother.
Gone, my sweet touch while alive,
Feel the claws that open you.
Take the honey from the hive, ...
When the weather takes a turn
For the worst of how you feel.
Ripped down to bare bones that burn,
Stripped down to your cage of steel.
I’m the lover waiting there,
In the deepest of your pain.
Lets you know your heart I’ll wear,
Locked it with your ball & chain.
Sudden glimpse the underworld,
I furtive meet another.
Brazen crave, the other’s furled,
Of every man his brother.
Gone, my sweet touch while alive,
Feel the claws that open you.
Take the honey from the hive, ...

In My Book of Devotions
Today is a day that He made for me,
Because I’m alive and now I can see.
For which I will rise and gladly rejoice,
As I greet the morn’, I know it’s His choice.
I’m bless’d & wash’d clean as was His own son,
The rains finally came as once He had done.
Down in the southland, where I’d always been;
Fire of Hell was bringing drought for our sins.
To burn and ravage our homes to the ground,
Taking my family away, into harm.
Rains turned to flooding, hills’ mudslides yellowed,
I listened, trembling, as thunder...
Because I’m alive and now I can see.
For which I will rise and gladly rejoice,
As I greet the morn’, I know it’s His choice.
I’m bless’d & wash’d clean as was His own son,
The rains finally came as once He had done.
Down in the southland, where I’d always been;
Fire of Hell was bringing drought for our sins.
To burn and ravage our homes to the ground,
Taking my family away, into harm.
Rains turned to flooding, hills’ mudslides yellowed,
I listened, trembling, as thunder...

A solders prayer
Submitted to MadameLavenders
"Through The Alphabet: Letter A" competition
Please give me forgiveness, for I can not make amends
Let me worship you in your glory, help me appease my guilt
aglow are the fiery battles of my life, extract me
And with the arched end of your anvil Lord
I pray that you shape me in your Holy image
Give me strength to avoid all sin, break our anarchy of faith
"Keep me as the apple of your eye
Hide me in the shadow of your wings "(psalm 17:8)
In April when discharged, bring me safely home to family
and not...

the love quotient
subtract the pain
carry the guilt
minus the blame
isn't an equation for mere mortals
it's impossible to solve
we don't have the calculations
to factor in grace
love is the missing quotient
it's simple mathematics of the heart
but computers can't comprehend
the neverending nature of love
it is infinite
it will continue in an everlasting loop
from its source to the intended
it is reciprocal in truth
carried one to another
the heart is a vast mystery
love uncharted territory
we...

Dark and Grey
Dark and grey
Just for today
Tomorrow is
A life away
Walking round
Lost in thought
Memories of
The battles fought
Not too sure,
What will be
My damaged heart
Is all they see
One last drink
One more rhyme
One last moment
Left in time
Darkness comes
And meanings go
Cracks in Earth
Begin to show
Where is she?
Who made love?
An errant shot
Does wound the dove
Give me back
That little smile
And I will let You ...

Em (ily)
you are drink:
charm fear, sweet burn,
and I want
more.
you are dream:
I reach, sure memory,
but you
run
you are promise:
demand trust I don't have
and I will
give it.

Faithfully Abiding
In the garden, by the french doors, watching the path,
Waiting for the one and only one who won't come.
Life is a long, unending glimpse of the future
Without her, with no exemption or resumption
Of the love we shared, we lost, she took it away.
Wasted time, wasted life, it may seem so to you
And I have felt the same myself, but never more.
I have seen, down the lane, a shadow as my soul
Winds down the grassy lane, my dear returns to me
With eyes that fill with tears of joy, she glows anew.
This is the thought, the wish, that...
Waiting for the one and only one who won't come.
Life is a long, unending glimpse of the future
Without her, with no exemption or resumption
Of the love we shared, we lost, she took it away.
Wasted time, wasted life, it may seem so to you
And I have felt the same myself, but never more.
I have seen, down the lane, a shadow as my soul
Winds down the grassy lane, my dear returns to me
With eyes that fill with tears of joy, she glows anew.

DUP Confessional 13- Hacked
(Listening to LTJ - People'$)
It’s amazing: refreshing how
So many people
Can all be on the same page
At the same time-
That’s some kind of fucking
Power: faith- belief
Being juggled: toggled out here…
My God
Not too many instances in life
Does that actually happen or does
Society allow: permit it to happen but…
Hacks: exploits who

Indulging some multiplayer mainframe
To beat recognition: keeping from being
Detected- its real...

a letter to a special friend
I wish u a merry chrstmas
my last remembrance of u
was standing in a bedroom doorway
showing me all your tattoos
I placed my hand on your back.
the whole house was on edge
your breathing rattled the whole house.
then sat back waiting for summer
I still wonder if I'll run into u again
and yes the postcards were
creative I was so happy when your wife called and asked me for my address so you could write. And in the same breathe telling me that she told u I called them on you. So my present to you this year is
TRUTH

The Damned Light
Tis’ mortal to say where life ends,
The threshold of death carrying us begins.
Within this darkness await the plagues of our mortal sins
The eternal punishments we so fear hath scorched our prideful wings.
Frigid, terrifying screams deafen our ears
that which brings us to tears.
No blast of light shall skewer this darkness!
Tis’ of the faithful to believe no punishment can invade their brightness.
Somewhere within the threshold of purgatory
The holy light is damned, and thus begin our hellish story.
Tis’ the false saint that plungeth into...
The threshold of death carrying us begins.
Within this darkness await the plagues of our mortal sins
The eternal punishments we so fear hath scorched our prideful wings.
Frigid, terrifying screams deafen our ears
that which brings us to tears.
No blast of light shall skewer this darkness!
Tis’ of the faithful to believe no punishment can invade their brightness.
Somewhere within the threshold of purgatory
The holy light is damned, and thus begin our hellish story.
Tis’ the false saint that plungeth into...

Borrowed Time
twisted time
growing old
ancient rhyme
painted gold
present tense
poster child
arrogant defense
we rise wild
fucking lonely
borrowed breath
another Jabroni
lusting death
pleasant pitch
vocal harmony
another ditch
blues cacophony
demons dance
to summon
their lord
of spite
Christians
pray forward
to the god
who made it all
vultures circle
indecision
death is
nature
live the
moment
it’s all
