The Presence Of Man
Created in the image of the Divine
Superior creatures
With handsome manly features
Selfishly given of his rib
A man in the making starting from the crib
Playdough, marbles, Army men to command
Bow and arrows, playing all day in a box of sand
First day of school for the rest of your life
Parents looking down at your young face, years going by without strife
Preparing your mind for the day you take a wife
The first school boy crush
Swooning a girl with love letters to make her blush
High...

Indemnity
it is here we lay
beyond the facsimiles
human to human
embracing of hearts
cultivating compassion
forgiving in love
beyond the facsimiles
human to human
embracing of hearts
cultivating compassion
forgiving in love

Influence
You see this is why your friends wanted you back with them
A pile of coal surrounding a gem
I was ready to jump at your slightest whim
Now you're riding the bus looking for him
Your friends didn't like it, hated you being on the up
They conspired against you to fuck shit up
Claimed you were in chains and weren't being treated right
Claimed they saw me over there just last night
But when it came to love you know how you were treated
When it came to dinner, you were the first one seated
Cards and flowers were a constant...
A pile of coal surrounding a gem
I was ready to jump at your slightest whim
Now you're riding the bus looking for him
Your friends didn't like it, hated you being on the up
They conspired against you to fuck shit up
Claimed you were in chains and weren't being treated right

Poetically Yours
Now, it is past summer
every light filled a shady corner
it is so so far from cold December
yet, it can be poetically warmer.
it is the heat of august flames,
and the noon lounges lazy in the hot hour
some kind of time rarely sensed,
some kind of feelings, mystically resuscitated,
some sort of streaming languid, lengthy oscillation,
seen on a very large sea, without limitation,
then the void swallows any sign of voice,
of motion, less life, less existence,
death of any poetic fresh dictionary.
No...

Things You Could Do That Would Hurt me More
Rip through my flesh
- anywhere, no need to be picky -
with a medium quality knife
like from one of those red handled sets Target sells.
Pour whatever stings most into the wound;
you'd know better than me.
Sew me back up slowly with a thick, rusty needle,
while some of the worst songs ever recorded are playing
like Bette Davis Eyes
or almost anything by Michael Bolton.
Put together a montage of video clips
of gut-wrenching cruelties,
the abject horrors that crush my soul
-racism, cruelty to animals, bullying-
and...

Deeper Than The Pelion
Deeper than the Pelion Sea
and still waters of twilight
sweeter than ambrosia
vanishing sins
aches and pains
exonerating the flame
of dark's misguided fools
while listening to the innocent
deeper than the Pelion Sea
and still waters of twilight
sweeter than ambrosia
vanishing sins
aches and pains
exonerating the flame
of dark's misguided fools
while listening to the innocent
deeper than the Pelion Sea

the innocents
what happened to George
Floyd was racist, those police officers
deserve all they get, and yet,
spare a thought for their wives and
their kids are left reeling
at the quite sudden turn of events

Soulmates?
She’s beautiful to me
And it’s easy for me to let her know it
I can’t keep my hands to myself
When she’s around
I’m captive to her brown eyes
Seductive is her stare
It’s so easy to let my guard down around her
It scares me
I love our deep conversations
I hate them at the same time
I don’t feel safe
Putting my emotions in the hands
Of a woman
Because the one time I did
She broke me
And I vowed to myself
I’d never let that happen again
I...

Forgiveness
shadows of past mistakes haunts
the heart that nags the soul
for forgiveness and healing
a beacon of hope bestowed
teary eyes beg for forgiveness
showing the depth of hurt and pain
and yet the accusing eyes glare
forgiveness still deep among disdain
.
there's a pretty space somewhere
where healing begins again
like pretty flowers everywhere
sparkling hope of fragrance
release the chains that bind
the heart and soul shackled in hatred
grudges borne like suckling babies
embraced on a burdened bosom ...
the heart that nags the soul
for forgiveness and healing
a beacon of hope bestowed
teary eyes beg for forgiveness
showing the depth of hurt and pain
and yet the accusing eyes glare
forgiveness still deep among disdain
.
there's a pretty space somewhere
where healing begins again
like pretty flowers everywhere
sparkling hope of fragrance
release the chains that bind
the heart and soul shackled in hatred
grudges borne like suckling babies
embraced on a burdened bosom ...

Thugs of God
Standing on top
Of glamour hill
Typed tongues
Like bible pages
Dressed in black and white
Spewing ancient words
For the modern ages
Dealing forgiveness
Addicting the human race
Eucharist pills
Washed down in wine
Without a trace
Pass out the gold
Donation bowl
Cash in their sin
For a pass into the
Lambent land
Buying priceless souls
Dressed in grey
But I'm going to make
My own way
Build my own church
Made with my
Soul's kaleidoscope life
...
