Innocence Lost
little known faith
it is a wonder
I still hold tight to my beliefs
I believe in you
that you will rectify what man has done
and all the fallen angels will be called to answer
every last one
for every mortal sin perpetrated against us
Father I don't understand
why, what was set into motion continues?
it is a somber moment in time
I value your company more than ever
we are at the cusp
geonicide, crimes against humanity
you collect the keys of the innocent...slaughtered
your blood...

Just Because
Just because you feel a certain way
it doesn't mean it has to stay that way
Just because you want to be somebody
It's possible that you're not just anybody
You might feel that you're unloved
but in reality somebody really cares
So think good thoughts and
good things will come into your life
then you will experience more than strife
it doesn't mean it has to stay that way
Just because you want to be somebody
It's possible that you're not just anybody
You might feel that you're unloved
but in reality somebody really cares
So think good thoughts and
good things will come into your life
then you will experience more than strife

Fireflies of the Mind
"Hope is the last thing ever lost" - Italian proverb
Hope.
And what if it is lost.
Call to it to come back.
It will come even in the face
of terminal blackness.
Walk into the ravaging dark.
Fall apart so that you may find,
Those long lost moments that made you shine.
The fireflies of the mind.
That flashing glow somehow soothes
things gone out of control.
Save one in a jar in your soul.
Hope.
The magic light that ignites internal growth.

RHYMING EASTER GREETING
Happy Easter, one and all!
Join in the "He is risen!" call.
Out of the tomb He's standing tall;
The grave could be no prison wall.
The stone-roll angel did appal
The guarding soldiers. One and all
Did in a dead faint simply fall.
They lay loose as a crumbled wall.*
The babe laid in the manger stall
Is now the risen Lord of All.
We may shun or follow His call;
"You who follow shall not fall."
* "...the angel of the Lord came down from heaven, and going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His...

Unspoken
There are those times
Moments
When words have been exhausted
There's an unspoken need
That languishes between lovers
Bursting at the seams with want
Yet sitting on one's hands quietly
It's then I write you
Uncertainty waiting to hear back
Then what feels like a lifetime
You respond
Only a few words
Enough though to help me believe
It's all for something
Intimacy
Beautiful silence
An allowance to be

lasting impressions
you can
gather me
up in
your angel
like wings,
hide me,
tuck me
safely
next to
your breast,
i am
happy,
contented
here,
no dream
could
be better.

Kneeling In Faith
Come, kneel, and pray with me, my Hebrew King
Let my thoughts guide you in a land of Illusions and dreams
As the sovereign graces on its knees
Once standing, its alliance is mightier than the roaring Seas
Trees that sway and bend in the wind just to give you the universal sacred keys
Yes, we are in the Book Of Revelations, the days of wicked thunder
We sit in our congregational seats on Sunday, hoping for redemption through our sins and the immorality of our flesh will soon asunder
Breathlessly awaiting the cosmic...

Magnitude
The magnitude of genius.
Emphatical, intriguing.
Intangibles, vehemence.
Exactable, if reasoned.
Enact able kinesis.
This tactical demeanor.
A challenge to compete in.
Adapted view, that features.
With attitude, appearance.
As absolute, esteeming.
Compatible, reverence.
Entrapment soon releases.
Intact, askew allegiance.
Will that construe completion?
Its shallow dues repeated.
Impalpable, deceiving.
Impractical agreements.
Retractable, unfeeling.
Impassable achievement. ...

May Reminds Me
I light a Candle
By Souladareatease
I wrote You in lemon juice
have You deciphered it yet I'm
The mountain home is still there
I tend it regular
the garden grows without tending
A testament to strength
I watch the windows freeze
Ice capades frosting shape
Scratched as warmth
What's known to the inside
Remember its tucked hillside too
I think of the chilis, how well they grow
Astride yellow corn spreads the sweet
Gentle hugs we share between the rake
I think You may be under the impression
This...

Again, come the fine days, - the dust,
A sky of azure, bathed in light,
Long evenings, the walls burning bright ; -
No green in sight, and hardly naught
Save a crimson glint that is caught
Adorning the black trees like night !
This fine time makes me weigh and brood.
That after rainy days, it should
Bring forth, in some canvas painting,
The Spring that paints in green and pink,
Like a fresh nymph hatching, does bring
A smile, from the waters, spurting

The "Gods load was to much"
From the beginning of time when the Gods created the earth 🌎!!
Much work needed to be done, the Gods became fatigued and needed a people you would say the chosen 🙏 one's!!
The one's to take up the load and make sure 👍 that the earth 🌎 was well groomed and properly done!
The Gods came all together like care ❤ bears 🐻 in unison!!
As they stared Adam and Eve suddenly appeared, to populate and groom the earth 🌎 the Gods load!!
On earth their generations were left to bare!!

Sunday
We praise you, O God,
our redeemer, creator…”
Almost time to get tidied up
presentable
for the parade of washed and scrubbed souls
lined up in our chairs in the chemo ward
waiting for that weekly infusion of faith
“Not what my hands have done
can save my guilty soul…”
I do want to look like I have my shit together,
at least enough for basic hygiene
forget that an hour before, I was stinking and greasy.
I’ll stand up there and sing
and they’ll imagine me “mature in faith”, ...
our redeemer, creator…”
