Jesus May Save but God Certainly Kills

Jesus May Save but God Certainly Kills

How many people did Satin kill?
We don’t know and never will.
But we do know of many that God has killed.
Entire populations’ death he fulfilled.
Kill them all, God would command.
The Israelites obeyed and did what God Planned.
Excuses given, we’re told so many.
But never a good one although they are plenty.

Certainly Love


The only place where there is no math of loss or gain,  
The only thing which runs existence, which runs blood through veins.  
While devoting to each other, you become nonexistent;  
The only thing that's worth doing—that's for certain.  

You stare at each other, you resonate with each other, you hold

Premium MemberNo Hate is Certainly Working

I was glad to escape the school run by demon spawn 
thrilled to extricate myself from this hell-hole
disengage from a hateful situation
distangle myself from the mess they call normal
I am pretty sure the students feel the same way
Their “no hate” campaign is working.
Brain research shows that if you say “don’t climb that tree”
a person must

Premium MemberHe Is Certainly Built

Oh, my, he is certainly built! The women said of the knight.
He was hidden in armor that was truly marvelous and right.
If he had half the muscles his armor had, he was a catch.
He is my hero a lady-in-waiting said, I think he’ll be my match!

He must pump the iron, and he can call me

Premium MemberIt Certainly Would

When the wisest man in the world said
"It would be a tragic shame if ever 
The Great Forest were to be reduced
To a small clump of trees."
Everyone, without exception, answered
"It certainly would."

So when The Great Forest
Was eventually reduced
To a small clump of trees,
That is what they decided to call it ...
It Certainly Wood.

Premium MemberCertainly May

The browns from the winter
have all changed to green.
The harsh and sharp edges
are mossy and soft. 
The breeze is more gentle:
no clouds in the sky.
The robins are nesting;
the hawk is aloft.
The creek beds have water,
no longer harsh ice,
clear pools in the shade,
inviting and nice.
With sun on your shoulders,
a breeze in your face,
a feast for the

Poetry Apprentice Certainly

When I translate:
ancient greek,
Aramaic,
Esperanto and
other languages
I'm just one
 a rapacious curious ...
When I translate:
the crackling of the fire,
the whistle of the wind,
or the voice of silence,
I'm an apprentice
of poetry ...!

This Is Certainly Love

Prove the antagonisms,
      dare to cede to impulses
      be perplexed by chasms,
      not living before pulses ...

      Not having out of love,
      warmth, shelter and rest

Certainly Not Me

everyone

Boat of Interest

BOAT OF INTEREST

Something troubles us certainly
Something always drums trouble
To us
Some have children yet pockets of
Troubles outside childbearing lives
With them closely
Some can eat but no food while
Others have abundance but with
Much troubles dancing around them


Some have wealth without heir
Many have heirs without wealth
Yet many sticks of troubles live
Behind them like family garden
Some are beautifully rich but

Premium MemberI Certainly Put My Foot In It - Halloween Boo

I went out to trick or treat
wearing fake bloodstained hands and feet
Soon I began to get prickly heat
So I jettisoned them in the street
The finder went as white as a sheet
Then dropped dead with no heartbeat
Now I’m feeling like dead meat
How could I be so indiscreet!

A Stomping Ground Is Most Certainly Not a Stamp On An Envelope

A meathead is definitely not an ostracised ostrich, a warbling wavering walrus, a small but vintage vibrant beetroot who claps in time, a mascot at a match, a backwards facing grinning umbrella in bright sunlight, an automatic dimmer switch winking, nor is it a tattoo of a cartoon place-mat. Basements cook eels. Slip slide slip

He Certainly Ain't No Cat

     I am a carnivorous feline, red in tooth and claw,
     I climb in through the windows and I creep in through the door
     And hide in secret places where I can sleep all day.

I Guarantee I Certainly Love All of Them
