As we atoneAs we atone for blood we spilt,
we know we knew not then,
yet strangely we’re consumed by guilt,
weakening yen for zen.
Choosing to exchange roles,
relinquishing all goals,
we walk over hot coals.
We walk alone,
as we atone....

final accountbefore life begins
we accrue fictional sins
so guilt always wins
lest any deem themselves free
to alter reality
dollars and distance
do not measure existence
despite persistence
constant debt all but assured
within this credit card world
is living better
starting off as a debtor
shame's...

All thoughts are ego begotOur sin, cacophonous thought din
Oh hermit, when will we begin
In silence, choosing to be still
Feeling God’s love and light within
Simply by surrendering will
Bliss mists rise and voids in heart fill
There’s no doing we need to...

EmptinessYou gripped my hips, not my heart
you stoked the fire on my lips, sent me sprawling through an abyss
and left my body tangled in sweat drenched sheets
alone.
you wove a wrathful web of wantonness, slid...

YOU CANt ESCAPE THE WEATHER
With accompaniment of rain, the tweets pour into my ear.
Saturation of sound, mottled bark and sodden moss.
Must be the downfall of civilization, heavens tears.
In God’s house, psalm’s blessing; outside, purging the dross.
Hues of watercolor diffuse,...

Thing InsideThere is a thing inside

Of the sweet release of death
But it is death who in wrath

Reducing me to woe
It tries...

After the final chapter of life is written,
Many will judge us better,
or worse than perhaps we were.
To those that we may have aggrieved

Terrorists' DeityBarbarity's own Deity,
The "Black Knight" of perversity:
Ascending through gross ignorance,
Descending on to Hell's province.
This callous god despises light
And seeks the deepest, darkest night.
It spawns a cult of terrorists -
Impoverished, soulless separatists.
This cunning god invites...
