Best Reformed Poems

A TWICE REFORMED CLOWN
There is an eerie silence,
 In the Big Top,
Not a sound is heard,
A heart beat could stop,
A hush envelops one,
And all,
Only the Ringmaster,
Whistles a call.
Suddenly with splendor,
And gust,
In burst the entertainers,
With such lust,
Everyone’s in the mood 
For laughter,
But is the clown that
Comes...

America is an idea
that "all men are created equal,"
before we cared to define "human", "created", or "equal."
America is freedom for our grandchildren
in a manner we will never understand.

It is the founding fathers who died for liberty.
It is the darker brothers who fought for justice from...

Full moon listed, one Halloween night
A witch flared radioactive flight
Across the bow, around,
With such a swooshing sound,
Only a few saw this awesome sight.

She was adorned in black lacquered dress.
Her flight was erratic, under duress.
Plunging fast to the ground,
A whirlwind dive, no sound,
Upon impact, there was...

Perhaps it was a bit of old moral Navy nostalgia misting from Dad's brow as he taught us moral just rule.
At times in my life, honoring my father and mother; one of the ten commandments-- a must though it seemed when my father passed when...

If I beg for another chance,
If my efforts stay worthy of praise,
Will the Jesus in you advance,
and absolve my sins that blaze?

time has grown long, your heart reformed
you've turned your light towards other's shade
you grew tired while my heart warmed
and now I trust and you're...

REFORMED but DEAD
So, so reserved and cold..
devoid of feeling, emotion
denied ,contained,held back
within..as if to express or
praise aloud were a greater sin.
Soso reserved and cold..so
transparently a veneer..so
thin...missing His point..
Love expressed..the flipside
of our sin.
So,so reserved..and false..
a facade..where thoughts
are held back,left unsaid
..so so sad..are those who,
without a doubt..are...

These times way back in 16th century
when at the reformation’s heart
God’s hand was showing itself so real
the power of the Lord evident in no small part

There in Geneva capital of the Swiss
living there on French borders east side
the church of God had great influence
in politics,...

He recently moved into a double-wide
with working, some would say classless,
while others would argue for clueless
white trailer non-trash.

He's getting along
in this post-middle class
over hill
and ranting shrill retiring constitution
declaring interdependence
in this, Earth's great
ReFormed Hippy GreenCommunion

Old mostly happy geezers
and gussies, yes,
most people of the park
not quite relentlessly...

He was a chicken thief now and then.
Until he met a beautiful twin.
Pretended he’d changed.
Marriage was arranged.
Taught his children how to swindle men....

After his sentence of four to serve
Will we be better for having known you?

A trillion point four is a whole heap
More than this mind can compute
Prison or healthcare 
Weighing in the balance

Do we really want to make laws that make criminals out of our citizens...

Every word I write
must be right -- 
written to the best
of my ability; my 
product of honest 
thinking

Not a word penned
while blinking

To be perfect, is to be true

To be flawless is truly to
be you.

Every hope and aspiration
should be contemplated
with invested determination

Without driving will
there is no...

George was to us The Deformed
And his bones The Malformed …
Then, to our rules he conformed,
After he was duly informed
And by us pointedly reformed
And-Lo!-George stooped looking deformed
Nor were his bones still malformed
For overnight, new ones had formed!

Just through his Conformity for Acceptance,
In him stifling Tiger...
