Adjusts Poems

Epistemic Humility,
the world adjusts its crown

Reality filtered through the lens
of who looks, when, and how

Heaven’s light shines brighter today
And its gates are opened extra wide
They’re preparing for another angel
To be seated by God’s side.
The trumpets blow louder
And the angel’s voices ring higher
Our hearts grow ever heavier as
Your final day with us grows nigher.

On wings of self-destruction she relishes the panic

	In the control room of the living

It was meant to be a family journey from heaven

	Everyone on board to enjoy the passage

Then she launches herself as a guided vile missile

	Mission nearly accomplished

Hear that?... It is the sound of the beat. Of course one may say... but it's all so sweet. Guh - guh - guh- guh... such a rhythmic beat. Not to run on, so from the heart I'll speak. Friends...Read More

The woman is glad for the visitor with his tidy beard and dark curls,
his clothes smell of the money he earns from the foreigners,
see how he sits so upright and successful, proud holding his strong coffee,
his conversation is rehearsed, talking...Read More

The frightful winter solstice approaches
with an opaque snow globe life entertwine.
Stars sprinkle early, romance encroaches
upon one headstrong to dread wintertime.

Power poles are overthrown by wind gusts
but the fireplace roars in competition.
Soon the living room temperature adjusts
to our own Norman Rockwell...Read More

SONNET FOR A FRIENDLY TAX MAN

Once more the seasons turn to time for change
The sun adjusts to lower its trajectory 
The fates have cause once more to disarrange
Emotions and confer an elan-ectomy

As many have observed two things are certain
Although we...Read More

"The Monochrome Echo Chamber"




How many Roads
to "It"
Black as Black and White? or Unicorns and Rainbows?

Unitarian 1 and only 1 
Trinitarian 3 exist in 1 
An answer arrives unheralded 

Reversed in Time
Something has lit the fuse
something without colour sparks 

Light through...Read More

Rank and file perfection.
Uniform: green and brown
Bolt upright, their own space.
Parade-ground precision.
Standing to attention.
Obey rules. Freewill gone.

Front line facing attack.
Sharp steel slicing through flesh
tearing tender heartwood.
White blood dripping out.
One by one they fall.
Conifers cut and cleared. 
Chainsaw fodder butchered.
What pain...Read More

Our States Our Country
By Franklin Price
1/10/2019

We have all but forgotten
What our founding fathers meant
To create a central government
Where representatives are sent

A common place for our protection
To determine laws for all
Otherwise the states autonomous 
On their own to rise and fall

A wedge of moon 
persists in a cobalt sky,
as light fractures itself, 
splaying its fingers
through the reluctant dark, 
soon to be gone.
Black lace filaments 
on licorice black trees
dangle their dainty digits 
in a waning wind.
Hushed and shy is dawn 
as...Read More

Shhhh!   Quiet!!!!  Listen!!!
Can you hear her?
Can you see her sitting there?
Sitting in the mist of darkness, surrounded by a sea of pain from yesterdays gone by.
Can you see her as she positions her fingers?
As she adjusts her...Read More

As red musk fragrance from the steamed en suite 
escapes to her boudoir
from oil essential jar
a silken nightie trimmed with lace complete 

she slips light-fingered on to flawless skin
then she adjusts the light
soft glowing for the night
with graceful movements lifts...Read More

When rapture outcomes
spiritually hoped for,
Paradise faithed in,
loved,
justify unnaturally violent missionary means...

When only scientific and deductively logical
reductive educational goals
justify:
Anti-spiritual wide and shallow unlearning means
Monocultures must TeacherWin before we StudentLose
Mono-supreme theistic Lose/Lose terror and neglect
AND yet quiet WinWin hope
for integrative Wonder and...Read More

Abandon Dead Trails And Thy Sybarite Lust

If Nature's earthen-fires thy bosom holds
and thy heart's countenance mind's eye thus sees;
life serves best those adventurously bold,
walking worn paths, resting under its trees.

Seek in truth the great beauty God has made
the opulence of...Read More

She is Wonderland
You are Alice
She is darkness
Without malice,

Let her lead you
To her dire palace

Shame fear and desire
She will set 
Your life on fire

Don't hesitate
Do not turn around
Step into the darkness
Fall through the ground

She is Wonderland
You are Alice
She is darkness
Without malice,

Trust...Read More

Someone so rigid and fixed in their views

Will always face one major issue

That they will wonder bend and break

When in the right time the wind of change blows through

To set in their ways they're no flexible

Staunchly clinging to old archaic...Read More

The mind of man defines his self
Thought separates him from the beast.
For rationale transcends all else
So with reason was man bequeathed?

Nature adjusts its balanced scales
Predators thrive upon their prey
Quarry decays in mankind’s trail
While intellects cloth, does sadly fray. 

Conceit within...Read More

The Balance - Love and Commitment


True love is like a vast, rolling sea.

Waves low or high, it calms or churns;

adjusts with ever-changing tides...

     forever balanced by deep commitment. 


Commitment is like a vast endless sky.
 
Days...Read More

Dedicated for my true friend, Pokey the puppy
I have a friend tempered in anxiousness of speed indeed-
He runs, jumps, and adjusts to my manner uncannily-
A good friend is he who waits, in time and fate, for me in kind patience-

“The Evolution of a Broken Heart”


In thy hands I gently placed it
Lacking Hesitation’s pleas and virtues
‘twas ne’er a time to be uncourageous
Plucked somewhere from deep within
My honorable, clean gilded home where
Pure Intention sat regally Spartan
upon her stony throne


In thy hands...Read More
