Best Revelations Poems

  "I have been a stranger in a strange land."  Bible, Exodus 2:22  

I have been a stranger
I have been in a strange land
Land of forsaken frangipanis
Land of black diamonds
Diamonds never decay
Diamonds forever sparkle
Sparkle like neon fireflies 
Sparkle amidst darkness
Darkness depicting light
Darkness illuminating skies
Skies...

Professor Hapgood’s studies on ancient maps were fixed
Einstein said his theories should be added to history’s mix
Perhaps it proved too big a leap for other minds to take
But his ancient culture findings, Hapgood would not forsake

6000 BC, before Egypt’s pyramids were built
Millennia before Pompeii’s lava...

Warmth, surrounded me…always
My lips, my eyes, closed… 
Mesmerized by the darkness that brought me consolation
I remember there were colors under those lids,
Green, spurts of purple…and sporadic yellows and reds
They danced and flashed
Whenever your voice rumbled and vibrated my abode
I remember the earthquakes of laughter 
That...

Brain rewired
The spine of prison rattles
Hearts harden

Hungry dogs
Chomp on the bars and the bones
Of his hope

He is lost
Dreams and fears confirm his tears
Time is gone

Guilty truths
Drizzle down his swollen cheeks
“God, I’m yours. . .

Lift my eyes
For your light is my way to 
Shame my foes....

Revelations Of Beguiling Gaze, From The Witch's Head

From dark abyss, many light-years away
witch's head, its beguiling, evil gaze,
yellow-eyed sockets, curses to betray
far more sinister in that blacken haze.

Alas! Its lights gleam in brightest allure.
Leading its lost victims to blindness sure.

She steeped in paganism, its evil...

the swinging swings
of the ups and downs
of the unbalanced scales
of justice now hang stilled
and suspended in bigoted air
anchored by the selfish weight
of the 5th amendment privilege
that remains a death sentence
choice for the defending
underprivileged innocent…

brutalized innocent mortals
whose spiritual morality abhors 
death penalty finalization but
whose same moralistic
spiritualization...

Broken TV Revelations 

Alone, countless ancient uncles
linger in confessional apartments—
stare into virgin wombs
of empty TV screens, reciting 
lines from old John Wayne movies.

They know the words
like pearls cast -- sip communion coffee, 
swallow mute manna of Wheaties
as they trowel moist smoothness
of remotes
in spattered stone mason...

(For Lady Janet Douglas; the “Gray Lady” of Glamis, Castle and my ancestor)

Lost in the corridors of my imagination I dreamed…
I saw myself as my own ancestor; 
as if I’d lived for over four-hundred years.

Things I’ve never owned were on my person and 
people I’d...

REVELATIONS

The SCREAMING, The CRIES
Right beneath our EYES
Right beneath our FRUITED PLAINES
Right beneath our SPACIOUS SKIES
On a JET FUELED PLANE THEY CAME!
ENEMY IN DISGUISE

Who to BLAME?
CLEVER, CUNNING, AND KEEN
The so called MAGNIFICENT SIXTEEN
ENEMY UNSEEN

The fighting would BEGIN
ENEMY WITHIN

THE LIGHTNING, THE THUNDER
New WEAPONS made to PLUNDER
The STATES...

No more coats and woolen mittens. It's a time of new beginnings, when a dormant world awakens from Winter's slumber. Thawing snow becomes dancing brooks, quenching the thirst of Mother Earth.  Birds feather their nests, trees bud anew, flowers open to bloom, and so...

An alienation of Revelations

The rudimentary elements, all collapsed broke free
The whole ordeal made no sense at all
Eclipses and darkened wars of solitude made the eve
It was difficult to comprehend and to accept.
The deluge of torrid ramblings filled my deranged and already on edge mind
I got...

horrific, decades-long
study syphilis, study its effects
covert medical testing

army scientist
bitten by mosquitoes,
yellow fever
mustard gas,
enter chambers
temporarily blind

dark age
hospital patients
injected with plutonium,
atomic soldiers
in the waves
of nuclear explosions

trace amounts of radiation,
in breakfast cereal
of handicapped children
new drug, LSD
dropped over a French town,
unsuspected, hallucinations

with the latest discovery,
reports of dark practices
soon to...

I’m in a psychology class and as part of it we filled out several, detailed, personality evaluations. They said these were helpful in forming a psychological profile of the freshmen classes each year and of particular interest were these COVID years.

The professor said she’d be...
