Premium Member Picture This
Picture this….
Laughter ceasing,
Hate increasing,
Time depleting!

People running,
Children shunning,

Kings grieving! 

Lions attacking,
Waters slacking,
Hunger mapping!

Picture this… 
Kingdom coming,
Saints humming,
Drummers drumming! 

Trumpets sounding,
Hearts...

I’m poor, you’re poor
I’ll fight you for your door
Your box, your shoes 
I’ll wish you many more

Summer Squall
The ocean, eternal, spreads wide
Reflecting slate, somber storm clouds
While beachgoers, eight stories down,
Gather towels and scurry fast
From a squall shedding white lightning,
Dull, delayed drumbeat of...

The More You Do a Thing
The more you do a thing, you’ll find,
The better that it gets.
By slacking off, it’s obvious
That you will have regrets.

Developing a skill or else
Rehearsing for...

A King's Ego
Ugly mouth knobby head.
You spew propaganda,
your pencil has no lead.
I sit in silence watching.
You sit like a sloth king.
Scared of truth you're dodging.
I watch the...

What Have You Become
They said “try it, it takes the pain away”
But what do we gain besides being so cliche?
I’ve seen it all, addiction and failure.
