Best Ashing Poems

(D)ashing looks cast with clear vision
(E)njoyment of stories, bringing smiles
(L)aughter creating enlightment
(I)gniting a connection, out of this world
(G)iving attention that matters
(H)eartfelt support where it counts
(T)ime, a valuable shining gem
(F)ull of pleasant things shared together
(U)niting makes it all complete
(L)ove grows in these special places to meet

BIRDS

    B    reathless each day the winged ones burst and unite into the twilight frieze--
     I     s there a more delicate touch to the sight than the songbirds as they take...

B arbarians and intellectuals promote winds of change
O nly the blameless ones will be left over, to turn the page
X enophobia will be gone, good riddance to evil pride

O bvious to news watchers, violence is taking control
F orecasts of gloom, become a weariness to the...

Ominous clouds cluster on the horizon,
Immense waves smash over the deck,
Lashing! Crashing!  Punishing!  Pounding!
Screeching metal as the hull bursts open,
Pouring its jet black cargo
Into the frothing, raging ocean.
Lightning flashes, illuminates a tragedy;
Liquid death spills from its broken heart....

Half-breed Hades and his helter-skelter handmaiden 
Abysmally arrogant abase audaciously
Larcenous liaison of Lucifer’s love children
Lashing lepers in a legendary labyrinth
Ostracizing and obliterating others 
Wailing wretchedness while warpainted warmongers
Earmark eerie entities for evil escapades
Endorsing the eager envoy for entanglement
Noxious narcissistic nauseating necropolis

Macabre masquerade of merciless marauders
Oblivious...

G ravity held me; standing on my feet
O ne day, the wind blew and took me to a place
N avigating through the clouds it flew
E vacuating the shrills of fear

W ondering, I looked down
I magining how the world looks from up high
T he houses looked...

She's choking on blood clots 
over the moon
her mind has gone wondering and 
it won't be back soon.

She's talking to angels 
under the sea
her windy expression 
is causing a breeze.

She's purple mixtures
of all that's not good,
her shape isn't changing
i don't think that it could.

She walks...

raindrops collect on corrogated tin metal 
Which  covers me in the early morning.

 i remember sitting on those steps 
and listening to each distinct 
 drip..drop..drip..
that would come off of the leaves 
and trees as the rain fell.

 and i suppose there was some

Soul abducted by a fermented sweet drops
Morose temper, hauling like a deranged fox
   Tongues idle within cracked lips
    Herbs ashing between finger tips
 A brawl stirred, Victims refugee on roof tops.

I wear a Baja Rosa t-shirt with a huge sun on it and look into a mirror disguised 
as a bicycle tire reminding me to exercise
light a cigarette and ash my incense into the three skulls of the ashtray of life
and like the four monkeys...

I am coming
Heart beats and pumps sweat
So little now does my blood leak
Much more will be of the ungodly
Soon so much more will they fret
As i hung on the cross and ended the beginning thereof 
Of this body i now possess
On the many snakes that...

P-ray to God and He'll listen, 
R-emain firm and faithful; 
I-n spite of the rugged wind, 
N-ight chill, pain and trouble.
C-all on God and He'll listen, 
E-levate your total trust; 
S-un will come up again, 
S-hadows will never last.

L-et your prayers be heard, 
A-s you...
