The Preacher Man
His narrow eyes, misguided lies
Misguide his narrow plan,
To cleanse the world from demons, he
Was called The Preacher Man.

“I see no proof, I hear no truth!
Your science is a sin!
You’ll burn in hell if you rebel
And let the Devil win!”

The Preacher Man then took a stand
To...

Withered Are Memories Made On False Ground

Majesty of her charms , pale in light now
Love's glow has died, ashes only remain
She was sad , my heart took a fleeing bow
Her cries left only darkened bitter stain
No long goodbye words, we both knew not how
She was...

Poet Trapped Inside the Beast
I have the heart of a poet
Trapped deep within
The soul of the beast

Everyday I get up
And put on my dark
Bureaucratically correct uniform

I turn off my soul
Put on my phony smile
And my plastic ideas

And go forth 
To do battle 
With all the other soulless automats 
The...

Evil That Always Takes Its Toll

Remember where hot lightning bolts flash down,
Its sun-fire heat burning in a tragic strike!
There perished mother and her little tyke;
Tragedy there, where the angels cry and frown,
And sing their saddest songs upon the waves:
Doom and gloom a sad fruit to...

World abandonment
vanity infests
greed escalates
charity nullified

Competitive paradise
prices uncontrollable
hunger staggering
debt maximized

Honest  lost
integrity futile
words misconstrued
greed rapid

Equality vanished
pensions minute
labor intensified
 jobs down sized

World absorbed
humans consumed
profits soar
mortgages abandoned

World immobilized
composure lost
hope desperate
destruction eminent....

Lonely Heart
I enter an ad on the internet
that I hope will get 
me a call: "We found you a girl; 
a pretty girl.  We'll fix you 
up.  Hey, she picks you; 
so, give her a whirl."  

I open my 'In Box,' 
and midst...

Water Hyacinth
Dictatorship is water hyacinth
once it infests water
it shocks aquatic life
limits fishermen
terrorizes fish at home
difficult to eradicate
and benefits a few...

Premium Member Canoeing the Mississippi - Part 8
Every journey worth its salt has rocky places
Bank to bank filled with frothing white water, 
The economics of avoidance, steering a lean course, 
Avoiding higher peaks that thrill - vouchsafed to others.
Rest days taken during times of lower water
Even portaging some sections altogether, 
Below one...

Exhale
Panic attack
Neurons are whack
Strive for balance

Infests my whole day
Each way I try to convey 
Messages, communicate

My how neural pathways can stray
Left with a bottlenecked airway
I seek but body-chemical harmony
Thoughts, actions with symmetry

Gather grey matter
Take the unrest
Heave it over the railing
Crazy’s gone stale
And then I exhale



								Sunshine...

Premium Member Broken
Agonizing darkness descends upon my hopelessness.
Crouching in a fetal position as terrifying pain infests.
Oh the slashing, bashing of the wielding belt.
Crying and scampering, knowing his rage, I felt.
Yearning for and welcoming the comfort of death as a release.
As the cloud of fear cries and begs...

The Seeds of Our Ancestors
Where are the seeds of our ancestors?
Are they dug deep in blood-soaked and bruised battlefields?
Or huddled close to God's Crest?
Or are they lost languishing in desert sand's drift?

History's dilemma but their sins are repeated
As relentless as the ticking of the clock of eras and ages
In...

That Skin Looks Burgered
Enter the crowd
spawning shapes upon the dead 
A skill honed by understanding the living
a task only desired by the dregs

Mind the sirens as they sing a call
A call that was called while calling for the end of the world

Saturation through destruction
so on and not so...

Premium Member The Agony of Christmas Eve
On Christmas Eve, children lay in bed,
In titillating agony as they await what lays ahead,
They are in blissful torture pondering on chocolate cookies and hot chocolate,
Their eyes are wide open with anxious hope of gifts to come,
But Christmas Eve can be a hellish place for...
