Lifelong Friend
she
is with us
every second
of every day
constant companion
following every
footstep
witnessing every action
every meal
every sunrise
sharing every milestone
every obstacle
every celebration
always there
lifelong companion
with us from
first gasp until final breath
why do we fear her
one who
helps us
guides us
holds us
never
leaving our side
as we travel
into the unknown

MAN CREATED GOD
God didn’t create man, man created god?
Is there an omnipotent one?
Or does the human race have such a need for answers, and to be wanted, that it can create new worlds and ideas that shape our lives today or are these worlds so real we cant escape them?
Well what is the answer? Answers are just excuses.
No one really knows true answers, scientists believe they have all the answers, they speak and we believe all they have to do is wrap up a problem with numbers and calculations they call it an answer but all it is, is a theory of what they want to believe they do...

Under the Pale Moon Light
She dances naked under the pale moon light
Around the fire invoking energy from the night
And as the flames sway she prays with quite delight
The bright embers seem like dreams that take flight
And while the cinders fly off into the night air
Her body moves to the lively rhythm of the flame
Her fair skin glows along with her red flowing hair
Like fiery cascades - picture perfect in every frame
She raises her hands upward with a joyous grin
Then tilts her head upward looking up at the moon
The cool breeze caresses every inch of...

A Crooked Old Tree
I
know that
I
will not live forever,
and
I
am not afraid to die,
but
I
do enjoy this existence,
and hope to become a crooked old tree.*

I don't have demons
I don't have demons,
not just because I'm un-religious;
and more, say, Spiritual,
but because
my horned demons
are more like guests and companions.
Things to fill the empty places
during my soul's supper,
or corners for dark conversation
to avoid the silent void
in my heart's party.
Sometimes we play cards
and I call their bluff;
their wagers are useful in filling an age.
Pretty sure one helps my writing.
There is enough angles, demons, rakshasas, and more
to keep things lively
and...

Hungry Souls
souls do not hunger for
fame comfort
wealth or power
those things create
as many problems
as they solve
souls
hunger for meaning
the sense
that we have learned to live
lives that matter
to leave the world
at least a little bit different
for our having passed through it

Whisper me hope
I'm in love
with the mountains.
I miss the way they cradle the sky
like earthbound Gods.
But these walls are whispered,
hung with a handful
of cheap thumbtacks
in the corner of a dingy room.
The stars still know my name
and I hold them so tightly
in my forgotten hands.
Last time the sun rose
I was someone else.
May the shadow of my burdens
be always cast behind me.

Fabricated History
Fabricated History"
All of the statues shown, which are female are ISIS/
Whilst the buildings with domes, are dedicated to Osiris
The wars of this world, are required by Society's/
Who operate in secret, and worship Ancient Deities
If you look at war medals, all have 4-8 pointed stars/
As in reference to demons, from Baphomet to Ishtar
The word Britannia means ISIS, not Brittania at all/
And the Lion found at ISIS, guards the Tribe that she rules
But like with all Sacrifices, they provide to their Bull/
There's a price to be payed, like...

Daniel 9.26-27 is NOT About the TRIB !!
DANIEL 9.26-27 HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TRIBULATION PERIOD
Verse 26 starts off with the execution of the Messiah. ("The Messiah shall be cut off..").
This is talking about the crucifixion of Christ.
The Jewish leaders' part in the killing of Christ was the worst abomination possible.
They literally could not commit a worse crime than that.
Logically, the rest of this passage should be about the CURSES in the Law of Moses which would befall the Jews for their part in the torture/killing of the Messiah, the only begotten SON OF GOD.
And that is exactly what...

Pushing Boulders
why struggle
pushing rock
to invisible apex
view obstructed
by stone sweat pain
why persist
aimless
sisyphean activity
(another’s goal imposed)
no value
in meaningless struggle
why not
give it up
let it go step aside
allow
observe boulders descent
(helpless against gravitation)
why not
walk unburdened
summit visible
imagine the view
