Love Is Her Belief and Her Commandment
Love is her Belief and her Commandment
by Michael R. Burch

for Beth

Love is her belief and her commandment;
in restless dreams at night, she dreams of Love;
and Love is her desire and her purpose;
and everywhere she goes, she sings of Love.

There is a tomb in Palestine: for...

Better to be bold in battle
then benign in retreat!
No victory comes from actions prattle;
May honor be found in refusing defeat -

My vaults will not be breeched
by faults,
may we have a merry waltz
devoid of all unsavory salts,
this of you I have beseeched -

On this table we...

A pawn for a pawn, a crown to crown,
whom is Master of this Lodge in town,
this I enquire while preparing the pyre for you to retire,
my meddlesome mobility unabated, indicative of a congenital nobility,
configured to coral this clambering caravan of corrupted cargo,
like a sqaulid sailing...

The Queen's henchmen penetrate professionally the porous perimeter,
as a Phyrric victory I pacified your Lady's legion,
for both in the open,like charriots missing riders,decentralized command,the measure,
I, like you maneuver behind the superior shelter of  Praetorian's protection,

Levy the lurid seige upon my country's citadel as incensed...

If you fight with fervent heart,
roar of lion from your part,
perhaps true kindness will impart the vengence of a Goddess staved,
the moon now red with the noon's dead,
in your heart I'm sure is dread,for this rite you were not bred,
many times an oracle told: men...

Trumpet the ethos of these wading warriors with the hollowed bones 
of their panygeric prophets,resonating triumphant tones,
to forever honor,protect,& perpetuate the valor,virtue,& victory of this Holy Order,
the irridescent echo seeps from their Father's tombs,
for what extent shall I blaze myself and minions in the arrows...

Kids One Commandment
She is a beautiful Sunday school teacher,
and for children a mild mannered preacher;
the commandments her special to feature; 
To explain, 
a commandment that honours father; mother,
then asks her class “do you know of another,
on how we should treat our sister and brother?”
A voice let out...

No greater from me does God require,
Nor less, does He, of me expect.
That for Him, great love, I aspire,
And love for neighbor, I not neglect.

The Last Kiss - 13th Commandment
Lonely hearts with best touch
Keeping mind's company against crush 

When the air rents itself to love 
It was simple and illogical thereof

To get a thoughtful loneliness
But all make sense in its coziness 

Thinking of the the beautiful words 
Turned out fake promises of birds

For their...

Thou Shalt Not Kill
"Thou shall not kill"
Was etched in stone
High on a mountain top
As if God cracked
His funny bone
And no one heard it pop

We kill to eat
And not just meat
But weeds and insects, too
And no one grieves
For garden thieves
Who stop by for a chew

Our need for food
Fuels endless...
