Stonewall

If you have done this,  
It is wrong — a shadow cast,  
A contradiction in the heart’s pure glass.  

You must confess,  
Break the silence, stonewall no more,  
For faithful persuasion opens the door.  

Righteous rage, a fire that burns,  
Yet deflators of power twist and turn.

Premium MemberJust Say Yes

“JUST SAY YES!”
 Evelyn Pearl Anderson

Imagine seeing the LORD God
seated high on His throne
and exalted with His garment
train filling the temple zone

Bright seraphs are seen flying above
with two wings while two more
wings cover the face and two more
cover the feet; they implored

“Holy, holy, holy is the
LORD Almighty; the whole earth
Is full of his glory”
As they

Premium MemberThe mystery of you

when we're together holding hands
and in a world completely of our own
the tenderness I feel for you
outshines the moon and sun

it's in the way you fill my heart
with caring warmth and goodness
i savour the virtue and integrity
of a soul that's sweepingly atoned

and that gentleness is all the sweeter

Pumpkin Head

La bruja hechicera, 
with an impious hex,
from the marshlands 
beneath a foul swampy 
grave, she indeed 
summon Pumpkin Head.

Rage is how his master 
wheels revenge; For the
harsh reckless fatal end
of some young spirit slain.
His Abyss fiend ghastly nights
of vengeance spreads.

'Tis best, no wise,
to kneel in silent prayer.
Repent for it's the only tool
that might soothe
the impinging

Chucky's Atonement

Chucky's atonement

    1. Used to be scared of the rain. He would drag me out of the shelter and make me dance.

    It always drives him insane. Dressed me like a little Chucky doll and spared me no glance.

    Frozen toes in winter were warmer than

Atonement

And who are we, ignoble birthed, 
knowing as we must, 
all elements of earth
laid down in divine trust
berthed in perfect form-
stupendous souls made from dust. 
Finger of God made so much of it
Divine capsule of design
Then the human being lost his mind, 
lost the way for humankind. 
Blood sacrifice cries from the ground
Stones will cry

He Could Have

He could have come to rule the world,
he should have been a king.
He could have had all that he want,
but then what would it bring?

For he knew who he was and also 
what the world would need.
Thus, he chose life a poor man’s son
who lived a life to bleed

upon the cross, between two thieves,
completely left

Drifted Dreams

The long-drawn-out throb of my core,
Mounting up my red lane,
It is so cold, my eyes are all sore
My atonements have been in bane,
One swell of solecism
Exonerating mine deeds unfeasible to deem,
My soul cries to death
My beautiful dreams drifted.

There Is No Atonement

In support of human rights everywhere. The truth is not discovered quickly enough for justice to prevail and reparations to be made. But in time, all is revealed. And those who commit atrocities take their actions with them into their next life. 

Let's be the bridge for all that is good for everyone we meet.

Premium MemberThe Pursuit of Contentment -POTD

Whatever the offerings of time may bring
Whatever song my heart chooses to sing
On life’s small pursuit I shall meditate
Elysian splendor around me, I appreciate
The simplicities of pastoral living unfurl
I’m graced in your stellar light, a cosmic pearl
Serene contemplation, moments well spent
A transcend of intellect, I pursue contentment
Humbled, a mochila drapes my shoulders 
Now weightless, old

Atonement

Atonement
By Michelle Morris
23/11/2022

Atonement seems to be this very heavy memory
Of this cross you carried for so many years

We both know that you crossed the line
Destroyed my trust and burned my smile

It took me decades to rebuild my sense of instinct
To move in circles of humanity without flinching

And you think that because you felt guilt and

Atonement Applied

THE ATONEMENT APPLIED
A "Man" stands in the Heavenly courts--
His death for sin will now atone.
There are scars on head, side, and hands.
He raises these hands and pleads for His own.
On earth, a Lamb, His blood He shed.
In heaven, High Priest, that blood He pleads
His righteous life and willing death,
As we kneel in prayer with all

Atonement

Atonement of those words that left from your mouth,
Which broke my heart beyond any bound.
Those gut-wrenching actions that I have seen from your eyes,
Are more painful than your lies.
That love you claimed was never mine,
For you, I have always been a rotten wine,
Sour and sharp, not so divine.
The moment that we had feels like a

Postponement Means Atonement

Soon mend your ways
Before it is too late
A way to win, trace
Meekly obey not fate

Start your duty now
Don't easily postpone
Contact with love
Over the phone

Make a visit with no delay
Please destroy your ego
Try to find out a way
To do that now itself go

Time runs so fast
You may lose a chance
Give up not at any cost
Efforts, you

Atonement

In a land where ignorance is courage,
The politics of faith is raging to hush the sage,
For if the moth will fly to dig the truth, 
The dragons and tigers will ply in cahoot. 

I was once a moth with desire for a mind,  
In a land where almost whole is blind, 
But the dragons
