Premium Member The Tall Ships Burn
Burnished gold, aged bronze patinaed by the firelight
singed by sullen Sol, not stayed by Poseidon's hand;
aflame, aflame, tall ships burn, see their masts ignite.

Impenitent, sky rains ash blackening the night.
Fire sends a smoky pall upon the sea and land,
burnished gold, aged bronze patinaed by the...

My Poems
My poems are not for leisure
They are guns 
Aim at imperial anatomy
Notes slipped to a teller’s eyes
For easy withdrawal
Of ancestral deposits
My poems are not for leisure
They are flowers for graves
Of dead theories and foolish warriors
Who slave for vanity
Flowers cover well the rot
Of lovers’ insanity.
My poems...

I Know
I know the end is not near to come
While soldiers bleed
And children die
And drones discharge the precise bomb
The rumors of wars is only the discontent
Of sinners proud and impenitent.

I know no designated time is given
No schedule to prepare for heaven
A life of righteousness 
Will not...

The Last Mile of the Way
The last mile of the way

It is a matter of must
To all and sundry,
Each and every man-jack
Has to walk it.

It is the real moment in deed
For one has to say, “Goodbye” 
To those he loves.
One has to put down all his loads
And face the reality...

across the table pink-eyed – not even Alice’s rabbit either – the impenitent sat – stooped – round as a fatted pig – full of pride in service – unabashed by his kill count – he spoke of philosophy Paris and London – his son...

Checkmate
Clever queen, I maneuvered my way through all of the subtle and most obvious plays 
Masterfully 
Sensual aestheticism, sexual teetotalism, romanticism, sadism, masochism, hedonism 
Calculating many moves in advance, I played the game mercilessly 
Surrounding my opponents with a plethora of carefully crafted traps 
I...

Give Me a Change of Heart
Give Me A Change of Heart [Prayer]

“4 Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? 5 But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up...

I See Them Everywhere
I could see stars everywhere, 
In every foggy corner, 
In the twinkling of their eyes
The exchange of goods, services, money
Some grateful and well-intentioned, others listless
Cold and accusatory 
Selfish and scared
I saw their lights come and fade
Their loud horns go unheard
Their curses and cries growing hoarse
With...

Riverine
Torn from an endless night 
 Bound by a creeping fog 
 Like a shadow of the twilight 
 Born of the bog 

 With a cry or a moan 
 Half-heard with a hum 
 She flashed and shone 
 Nodded and shrugged

I Am a Broken Bone
These half score years for me have been a war,
My soul a broken bone reset in place,
The girl He made was meant for so much more.

In vain, I searched for naught I could adore,
With those I loved I could not keep apace,
These half score years...

THREADS OF DECEIT

The puppet flexes with threads of gold,
the hobby of his mistress to sew.
His wife kneels on impenitent boards, parquet cold.
The puppet flexes with threads of gold.

Scurrying out, floorboards creaking and bold,
he’s grown a larger nose, than the man she once knew.
The puppet flexes...

Aesthetics of a Damsel
Her cursory gaze is like the impenitent sun,
Her brave speech are edified like sindey.
Her eyeballs kindled the fire of fun,
And ushered the lucky man into glory.
Her hips are attractive like the plains of
paradise.
Her bowels are contended with wealth and
fortune.
She frown-ly smile like the queen of
franchise,
Enslaving...

Shaman of the Darkest Id
Ever impenitent it seethes in a midnight pool
hidden by chains of impropriety
pondering misdeeds of demeanour
mysterious kiss the darkest id

Unbidden scourge of bestial tongue
to rise within the ink-ed dust
and sow its emotive seeds of ravenous 
simmering internal the roil of blood

Such impetuous rages of desire
slides through...
