Going inward
Receiving moments of grace
While time unfolds
Touching your heart with my breath
An expansion
Doorways to enter

Each gift revealed through my willingness
Vulnerability my partner
Coaxing me towards unimagined pleasure and pain

Letting my mind expand
Memories of days 
Exploring and discovering
Baiting my first hook
My Father’s deep voice guiding me

Watching his...

Do not let the ray of his meek sun fa me shines alone So 
Seek O, the favor of the Creator on his templed throne, eke
Favors of mercy Lattitudes of grace; lo the patient Savior’s
Heart pines through tedious days for us, rich joys to impart.

CONQUERING THE BLIND SCALES OF PATRIARCHY

Crystal cold are the pupils of some men
staring red to jailed porcelain dolls skin
dowered for the title of chastity,
your curves, your swell, they treated like machines.
You can be the light midst darkness, woman

yet why they see your body as gold...

Soros with his little pet crusty the clown caught red nosed 
our country needs a king with a backbone to defend certain rights 
not this weak minded fool who shakes hands with the devil himself 
on earth a liberal puppet who agrees with killing children...

         in the sunny meadow;

Balance Tips the Scales
It twas dark, a hen's night 
stillness abandoned the fright 
knocks echoed freely 
and here her presence was felt 

Chimera fragments an innate realm 
unbeknownst reasons dare overwhelm 

A shoulder-companion gone lain 
unearthed my being hath slain 
seams seared and baked 
rivers red hot, unadultered...

I wish that I could see the scales
that measure each centuries worth
and determine just what it takes
to cause their rise and fall.
Is it wasted lives versus those fulfilled?
Is is senseless bloodshed opposed to those that survived?
Is it the level of justice that prevailed in a...

Talking Scales
Fin, a comical inventor of renown,
Latest invention had caused such a frown,
His talking chemist scale
Made many people turn pale,
Just after putting their coin down.

"Don't park your semi-trailer here,"
"Is someone helping carry your rear?"
"Lay off the donuts,"
"Am I weighing two guts?"
The chemist made the machine disappear....

Scales of Despair
the scale is stuck
it won't go up
and, worse, it won't go down
so here I stand
towel in hand
fat and sporting a frown...

The Bathroom Scales
The Bathroom Scales

By Elton Camp

There they are, just daring us to step on
And see which way our weight has gone

The bathroom mirror shows the sad fact
But the authority of a read-out it does lack

And while in there we are entirely out of luck
Ten pounds for...

Blessed are curses as a path
to the riches in aftermath
before the bell tones at last
denying more while giving less

embraced by fools counting sins
there aren’t enough to contend
when the darkness felt within
consumes fair judgment for all men

the only saints that remain
are disguised in full regret
for the...

Premium Member Scales Tip Down
Weight is held in the balance found wanting 
Heresy thought unorthodox behaviour 
drops the pearls under a great price 

A river of lies flows one after another devaluing family values 
Filled with the impurities of sin under an idiotic phase 
Resilient is the word 

Where...
