Best Stave Poems


Premium Member A Man With a Stave

There once was a man with a stave
Overseeing a holy enclave ...
      Well, maintaining a grin
      While absolving the sin,
He assessed wicked tales and forgave

Premium Member Quest of the Heart: Chapter One, Cont

Of Ghosts and Fiends in Twilight, Cont.


The battle was joined and I was the victor
But no spoils were I to partake of just yet
The daemon commander was still in my way
His face glowing red with rage, his ire set

“Thou mayest hath quick the Master’s servants dispersed,”
“All sad, soulless slaves without purpose or mind,”
The daemon roared and spit through a scowling grin,
“I shalt not be as inept a foe thee wilt find!

Suddenly I was lifted up off the ground
And hurled hard against the wall by unseen hands
Wolven Stave flew from my grip as I crashed to the floor
Sorely stunned, but unbroken I regained my stand

I searched for Wolven Stave and to my dismay
The black daemon held it in one big, filthy claw
“Thy fight is at an end!” he said with a sneer
“Thou brave knight is lost, an inglorious fall!”

Wolven Stave’s blue stone then began to glow red
“Thou knowest not of whom thou chastise, mayhaps!”
I shot back with a smile as Grey Bane broke free
Came down and cleaved the vile beast from scalp to chaps

The Daemon split fell a bloody heap on the stone
Wolven Stave with Grey Bane was restored to me
Victor this battle, but the war not yet won
The Dark Lord awaits, my Lady Wife I must free

But which path to take to seek his dark abode?
With calm mind to see with my heart where it would go
Soon I was visited by a vision strange
My Fair Gennifer surrounded by ice and snow

I decided to let my heart guide me on
Not sure of the meaning of what I had seen
No truer friend found than the heart true in love
To aid in my Lady’s release from the cruel fiend

I stepped over piles of dismembered flesh and bone
Towards a door I espied at the chambers far end
I brought my full weight to bear on the locked door
It broke loose and flung open, through and down I went

The tenth of the Stave

The Wind arranged and rearranged
                                            the sediment
                                   the beauty of a sandy flat
                                   eroded crustal rocks of the
                          graben the area a down-dropped basin
                           with no outlet the rains drain into the
                            basin gypsum and salt the products
                                    of the evaperated streams         
                              where the flooded plains shall create
                                              perfect ocean
                            the shallows collected from the streams
                                      the foothills of Guadalupe
                                   Restores the El Pasains dreams


Remnants of Ancient Lakes
She fasted 40 days there
before the temptations of
a devilish woman with
power, food, and her body
and the Kingdoms of the World
One must resist temptation to restore
there dignity
 representing the lust of the flesh
, the lust of the eyes,
 and the pride of life. 
The three temptations are often interpreted 
to make the understanding of what is tempting
One Must Resist Temptation
Most Temptations are opposed to
family,freinds,or society
these type of relationships defy common boundaries
and exploit the dignity of all involved

The Tenth  of the Stave
Representing a different 
notation or musical pitch
due to the fact
that he was39 years old
and she was 23 years old
he received threats from
the gaps in there age
and was cited for
ignoring the common
 boundaries of both age
and  meeting
her at work.
The were performers of 
 "The Solid Surface Orchestra"
he's a Pianist/bassoonist
and she a flutist/cellist..
