I walk o u t...

I am lost in unapproachable light—a spectral broth
I am tasting the screaming silence—the archetypal observer
dissects my essence-fossil Passion
a seismic rupture between life/death/rebirth
gnaws at my marrow This dilemma-kudzu
coils tight, constricting tomorrow's breath

Death stalks me, a shadow with obsidian fangs
Sin's fruit—a parasitic putrefaction—
erupts...

Premium Member A Mystery of God
One does not earn
sainthood.  Often
the most unlikely
of men considered -- 
as with St. Paul, an
early persecutor,
murderer of Christians

on the road to Damascus
struck blind -- 

when it
is time, God's time,

He chooses~ smacks
oblivious soul upside 
the head...his first conscious reaction
is that of awesome dread~ startling revelation

(Many with genuine reasons)

‘Oh Wino Wino’
The ignorant everyday sing to him
a truer song they never did render,
his evolving habit is all he has to
leave to this his tedious world
reckons he’ll be dead before autumn.
On a moonless hot January night
upon the great southern freeway,
tragedy took away...

Premium Member - the Beast -
Sound like shaken steel

A powerful beast persecutor

All the painful nights

Gives bitter taste in the mouth

Our step in the shadow sustained

Some youthful dreams, drowned

Pain and passion go hand in hand

The jasmine cries, even in the sun

How deep and wide every second means

Free ourselves from the painful...

Bronx Street Corner
she became a new york city
street corner fixture
acted like its the only place to be
acted like its the place for the persecutor to begin
after all all men are guilty
none are forgiven
so she painted false hearted judges
to prop up her proposition
to subvert the natural truth

she lied...

Gangster
Gangster

Gangster, Gangster, ruthless cold-blooded killer,
Destroyer of life, take no prisoner for bountiful gain.
Business Man, Protector, racketeer of feared innocents,
Taking what you will, secured with violence and pain.

Who are you, what are you, who gives you the right,
Building Empires, from untold misery and blood.
Strong of character,...

Sleep What Sleep
The rooster crows
Heralding a new dawn
Yet sleep is beyond me
That basic human need has deserted me
Leaving me in a whirlwind of thoughts
Contemplating, scheming
For what else can I do?
Reminiscing, remembering
What else is there for me?
Musing, pondering
How else can I survive?
When all that I ever wanted,
All that...

Premium Member Saint Paul, Witness of Hope
St. Paul immersed in difficulties
Trials of various kinds
Wrote to his disciple Timothy
Must go back with Risen Jesus to Damascus


Follower the Law of Moses
Determined to fight
Every means
Even kill those regarded God’s enemies

On the way to Damascus
To arrest followers of Christ
Was blinded by mysterious light
Heard himself called...

Premium Member Misunderstood
Punk Rocker a rebel’s cause?
Oligarchy rules within,
Emotions intact although
Timeless it seems when
Declassified, this
Exacting attention
Soon to reach out to each of us
The persecutor,
Rhythmical with opinion
Organized with intent
Yes with intent when
Enraged, effrontery
Rules. Mean while
Scars that penetrate
Lay within the mind,
Yielding actions that remind one
Life is not always about...

BULLY- - MATON- part 1


Matón—
Tú no eres nada;
 Pero un cobarde valiente;
 Matón—
Tu elección es tan estúpida;
 No podías manejar tu propio poder; 
Ya ves que TODOS debemos ver al Padre un día;
Bully--
Your choice is so stupid;
You couldn't handle your own power;
You see we must...

Me and My Shadow
Why don’t we go together hand in hand? And I shall become tired 
on the way, you and I, plop down on the roadside together, 
look each other in the face and take an undisturbed long rest.
Or if you shall become weary, I sit beside...

Never Meant To Be
Colliding through social circles, thrown together, combining
A commotion of emotions, now entwining, forever binding
Almost kin to craving, more than yearning, more than hunger
Scared to close her eyes so she won't miss him any longer
Lurking in the shadows, undercover in the gloom
Jaundiced eyes make an entrance,...

Suspension
What meaning do you give
To lips moving up and down again?
Torn clothes, a broken nose
Drawing a smile on your face with pen

Different ages, different years
A target for abuse, told to refrain
Inside a system punishing the innocent
For going against the grain

Stalking you into a corridor
Eyes from...

The Oppresor
You frightening firmly plaza
The city well known threatening monster 
The known high cost selling plaza 
The cry of the poor masses,

You subject them to wear tartared clothes,
To eat, on rainy morning you will see them peasant,
Drenched in their robes, with hoe fitted on their shoulders,
On...
