A little leaven
Saturated unity
Malignant hot air

After forty years
Wandering the wilderness
Righteous judgment

Moses and Aaron
Exodus deliverance
Journey Eternal
Abomination of Desolation:
Laodicea
Prophesied apostasy
Son of perdition

God of Abraham
Seed as countless as the stars

Crazy Love
Reading between the lines, she was out in left field and off the deep end,
grasping at straws to drink of a glass half empty.

How roses reek
Bathing foster waters
multi petalled vines entwined
my torn skin would ache
a crown of thorns
lay opened
in mosaics
my strained ear would hear
light birds
my hands became
five petalled
fragranced heart
drying and pressing
flowers I burned

Ten Haikus
Stars of Skin:
Grandiose cosmos
Spinning off of foundation
Scattering cycles
Unseen Idol of Self:
Intellectual
Covetous idolatry
Reprehensible
Foolish:
Fallible reason
Excuses justifying
Egotistical
Babel:
Tower of Babel
Exalted trajectory
Expedient fall
Corrupted Innocence:
Sensual satire
Demonstrative influence
Volatile choices
The Vine:
Holiness dwelling ...

Act
Lingering within,
Temptations appease,
Like listening to wind.
Believing in lies,
Wearing masks appeals,
Like cheering performance.
Fame and fortune sought,
To become gambled,
Like rolling snake eyes.
Dancing with statues,
Hewn grey built handshakes,
Like a graven loss.
Earthen accolades,
Monumental show
Like echoing chambers.
The funeral dirge,
Hearse and casket,
Like roses to play.
The curtain fallen,
Impromptu intent,
Like empty motive....

The box and the Sun
The box does not know
of it's permanent lands of shadow
caught deep inside, where light cannot go
yet, the box is simply content though
while the Sun dies daily
giving off light and shadows so gayly
chasing it's own death every single day
just to search for the lost glory stolen away.
The box does not know of glory or shine
but it seems to live just fine
while the sun rises again and again
to falter under it's own hubris not at all thin
yet when the box is opened at last
it accepts the warmth the sun does cast
however the...

The Whore of Babylon
Mainstream witchery
Spellbound delusions broadcast
Playing with serpents
Summoning presence
Dimensional pentagrams
No cure for demons
Inside of the mind
Pulling desires cycle
Social emotion
Covetous glory
Presentation imposing
To leave impression
A scarring conceit
Marketing bestial lies
Passing down hidden
Hungry monkey thoughts
Inclination directly
Taking center stage ...

“Table for Two”
Table For Two”
Girl don’t be shy I’m shy too,
Sit down here because I reserved for us a restaurant table for two,
This conversation is personal between me and you,
Tell me your doubts, your fears, your hopes, your dreams, because I’m the type of guy who is understanding and patient, I’ll be your waiter let me serve you to eat my Queen beautiful soul food,
the kind that will satisfy you all the days of yours life,
the kind that won’t offer what the world offers pain,division and strife,
when the Earth’s fault splits apart, we can hide out at the Van...

Call of Idols
Skies transpose
To the reason
Blowing wind
Vicarious now
Traverse cast
From the body
Uncertain when
Spiraling near
Presumed matter
Why the spatial
Currents direct
Physical allusion
Above hills
Call of idols
Into valleys
Moonlit nigh
Language universal
Down the slopes
Folds echo
Present thickening
...
