agnostics’ have no hope
they cause Christians to pray for their lost, lonely souls
can they cope?

doubting His word
they can’t believe one God controls
absurd!

One who consoles
love

they can’t believe one God controls

uncertainty ripping through unravelling mind
cheeks get wet

tears roll in fear
acrophobia grips confined

To See the Sea You See

Two seamen sought to sail the sea
to see the seething sea, you see.
This could have happened in B.C.
but no — they saw the modern sea.
In 2023 A.D.
the sea was like the sea B.C.
which is unlike the CBC
with no connection to the sea
but somewhat like the BBC
which does resemble the B.C.
without the extra C., you see?
I see.

Premium MemberPower of Zero

Let go of, to get to
All we see unreal, why for then confusion
Joy renew

There’s no hero
The manifest, an illusion
Zero

Thoughts stream
The conclusion
Dream

Let go of, to get to
The manifest, an illusion
Dream

Premium MemberZero Minichu


In money, a zero
is the round, empty symbol that cannot transcend;
no hero.

It's worthless- yet
When added to a number's end-   
you're set!

It soars!
Grants more to spend!
Scores!

In money, a zero-
when added to a number's end- 
scores!

Premium MemberRoller Coaster Ride On Mountain Bikes

On gravel mountain path,
    underneath shadowed pine crowns: friends ride mountain bikes,
      where none hath
        neath sapphire sky.
  Roller coaster, fun lighting strikes,
    runs bye.
  Wearing
    down bends, turnpikes,
      in
  swooping dust inward wrath.
    Their enlivening heartbeat spikes.
      Win!

Premium MemberLet's Minichu On Fun


Life, mixed with fun, grants hope-
this needed equalizer for our ups and downs
helps us cope.

Without real fun
to relieve stress in all we do-
we're done.

Great perks
filled with real fun
works!

to relieve stress in all we do-
this needed equalizer for our ups and downs-
works.

Premium MemberThe Final, Awful End

But, without exception,
an imprecation to the old, a shibboleth
perception

then filters through:
the final, awful end of death
in view.

To some,
just their next breath
comes.

But, without exception
the final, awful end of death
comes.

----------

This is a minichu:
6/12/3, 4/8/2, 2/4/1, 6/8/1
Aba, cBc, dbD, ABD

I hope I have used these properly:
imprecation - curse
shibboleth - a part of speech that distinguishes one group from another,
  in this case, the young from the old, distinguished by whether or not
  they consider their mortality

Japan's crimson sun disrobes a dawning night rise sky,
An elm tree parasol's her coral samurais while they lie.

A Pet Minichu
(original title) Dearest Pet

Long ago - dearest pet -
a miniature cute white Eskimo doggy
I would get.

Great joy unfurled.
A light my doggy came to be -
my world!

Lots of
this he showed me:
Love!

Long ago - dearest pet -
a light my doggy came to be -
Love!

He is our neighbour’s cat
every morning at coffee he waits at our door
on the mat

He looks at us 
and meows so we don’t ignore
the puss

his need
pet food some more!
feed

He is our neighbour’s cat
and meows so we don’t ignore
feed

Premium MemberOn Nothing

“When you have nothing to write about, write about nothing” 
Christine Mazumdar - CBC Literary Writing Tip, 6:00 am, April 13, 2021 

I'll not venture into Sartre, that's too existential
for in these viral times, my needs are fundamental
although it's hard to stop my being self-referential.

Where does my mouse prompt go when it disappears
before I go into Device Manager to return it now to here?
and with so many dying, why have I neither fear nor tears?

For deep inside lies nought but emptiness
which almost rhymes with nothingness
and a fear that it's all meaningless.

Premium MemberA Pet Minichu

Petite five-pound Yorkie; 
mother nature is full of small surprises, he's 
scant dorky. 

Mind of his own, 
always so hungry, gnaws on his
dull bone. 

Wind howls, 
Tator, my whizz,
growls. 

I wish my small Yorkie 
could talk, instead, demands with his 
growls.
