An Ode To My Christian BrethrenOn the backs of giants I walk,
Most of them cursed me right to my face and imposed correction unnecessary,
Most of them as Judas to Joseph, fell to the sting of jealousy, and slew my very soul with the
Cain like bitterness of accusation.
But still on...

Brethren of the WindShe nuzzled her first born,
Until he ungainly stood.
Fresh birthed, dewy damp,
Rocking unsteadily, a new life.
The herd settled, calmed by mother instinct.
Then slowly moved down the rocky draw,
Hooves dance, tattooing the morning mist,
Shaking the night loose, dawns promise,
Roaming the lush verdant growth.
Singing the song of the...

Dramatic Verse
BrethrenBeware Brethren; watch the events in the Middle East.
Things are exhilarating, here comes the one and only beast.
Predicted so long ago, our Holy Bible tells “Us” so.
Carnal man is in for a rude awakening, God tells “Us” you know.
Events, wars, earthquakes, strange happenings in the...

Binding With Brethren WorldsA skyscape floats with light's threads
Suspended in an unknown hemisphere
Of eternity, a pure innocence
Where billion meteors , stars evanesce. I feel
Its rivers and heat blending as one drift,
numberless upon the ladder of creation...
Like a pilgrim of life breaking a thrilled stun,
As the grandeur...

For the BrethrenMy Son,
There will be times in your life, when you won't want to go on.
You will want to turn back and no one will be able to tell you how to stand.
Your wife will offer words, but they won't seem to help.
And hands outstretched...

Ii- My Admonition - To Some Sunnih BrethrenYou've made the public tag Islam, a religion of fanatics
Just because of your attitudes, people see sunnis as extremists
Why making it difficult for others to abide by Islamic ethics?
Brother,
The fact that you use those short length trousers
shouldn't make you ignore and disrespect others
Be real...

Shroud of Brethren BloodA ribbon of peace made of red, white and blue
Had fallen to earth on a breeze
With hopes that someone would take and hold true
The values so needed for peace
Alive in the colors, representation of man
The struggles in life so endured
All sewn together in one tight...

Coyote MeetingIn fields of country wheat,
from the corner of my eye,
In amber grains discrete,
a Coyote stood chest high.
Nostrils flared,
with eyes in constant search,
Horizons scanning,
poised to quickly lurch.
Collar bristled in the wind,
he quickly turned away,
A scent of prey he’d just inhaled,...

Off To Church Half NudeLaughing more than necessary
And beginning from Beginning,
Jane about Joan and accessory:
"She'd looked like one a game winning,
Her blouse ungodly and real scary;
To even far - off eyes lots meaning,
Warden to reject stories fairy:
Breasts like ones a new baby weaning,
Still, a nose ring but bare back
And...
