The Almighty
Because of sin
The death
Has gained ground
in human life
The earth
has become cursed
The wickedness
spread
The payment
of sin
is
death
Only
the sacrifice
can be
wiped out
The son of god took human flesh
came to the earth and died on the cross instead of me.
He died and resurrected the third day
He is the glorious king forever.
Jesus is the way, the truth and the life
Who believes in him
will live, even though they die

solitude is a c**t
silent prayers said to the cobwebs maybe they'll catch them inside the hurt
I cry bitterly I don't know who the hell I am in the breaking dawn
this world isn't one I recognize and I'm not either
the brittle truth is falling apart
we pick reality from the empties
we are emptier still believing platitudes while we fade
heil to the new world
we believe we're getting somewhere
all the while we drift further into our solitude

Spiritual Awakening
TO BE GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL AND BLESSED YET WHY is it that there is ways to go to escape, from the negativity and drama, but yet it doesn't matter what you think 🤔 and still feel. For sure we have to learn to truly navigate, through the process of the SUBCONSCIOUSNESS OF THOSE THINGS. THAT SEEMS TO JUST DRAW US IN SO many LEVELS OF CONTROL OVER US. YET I have found what I need to sustain life 🙏 for it's the truth of the nonsense that doesn't matter 😔 but yet it does sometimes. 🤨 For sure everything that we have to go through, is precious to life that sometimes...

Overcoming Fear
It wasn’t so much the fear of what happens after death
But the constant guilt over things beyond my control
It just felt like many of the decisions I made in my youth
Were based on the premise – I was trying to save my soul
And yet for some reason it felt like something was missing
Many of the things I saw and witnessed didn’t make sense
I had lost faith and found it and lost it over and over again
And until the veil was lifted it stripped away that innocence
Then I believed I’d achieve something with a bigger purpose
Even the little...

THE END OF ONAN
He spilled his seed
doing the deed,
not let if flow
where it should go -
into the wife
he took for life
and make a heir
for late brother.
He was struck dead
(while still in bed?)
condemning wife
to widowed life.

Like I Do
I wonder if German sympathizers
ones who risked their lives
to hide Jews
felt like I do now
watching history
circle back 'round
Did compassionate colonials
feel the same
toward Native Americans
my sacred ancestors
Or benevolent individuals
for the LGBTQ+ community
with a mind wise enough
to know we don't choose
who we Love
because Love is Love
and leads only the worthy
feel like I do
Those who are different
in race, heritage
and religious...

Myth Haikus
Thoth
Scroll of stars unfolds,
wisdom flows through measured time.
Eye records it all.
Gilgamesh
Walls rise to the sky,
friendship forged, yet doomed to fade.
Mortals seek their name.
Tupă
Thunder splits the night,
roaring whispers through the storm.
Creation takes breath.
Amaterazu
Hidden in her cave,
sunlight fades, the world grows cold.
Hope draws her to dance.
Shango
Drums thunder the sky,
lightning splits the heavens wide. ...

FORGIVENESS
NEEDED
I've always heard that
even angels make mistakes
and everyone guesses
that the devil does all
the time. I know I, hopefully,
fall somewhere between
these two entities. I would
dare to make a guess that
we all do, not an accusation,
just a thought.
If it is true that the best
and worst of us makes mistakes
it must follow that we all,
at one time or another, need
forgiveness. I see that
the line at the confession booth
is long but I will patiently wait.
HOW ABOUT YOU?

Gee, Zeus
Christ was Greek all along it seems;
errata in the name:
or translative Semitic schemes
and inter-tribal blame...
from one sky god to another
and that which they revere
soon estranged one from the other
a little more each year.
Then Babel towers rose again
for litanies of abstract love
from monolithic ape like men,
and, the insularity thereof...
whereby we got such diverse gods
to meet all mortal needs
like vanquishing with rifle squads...
the meek and all their creeds.

Jeebus
I'm dead in a ditch.
Jeebus did it because I believed.
He's a soul sucker, on his knees.
Kissing the people's feet.
I wish his fishing boat,
Would stop carrying me.
I'm 'bout to bounce,
And set myself free!
Free like the birds riding the sun,
Not to tomorrow.
I aint no Cinderelli dressed in yelly.
I'm the destroyer!
Leaving you all dead in ditches.
I suck your soul!
I sever heads!
Mindless. Tweeking.
Faith is my meth.
Now let me heal you,
With the...
