Wheat From The Chaff

What’s done is done
As the chips fall
And the die is cast
Each of us
Taking a part
Donning a mask
To play
Our allotted role

At each step
The road forks
With freedom and tyranny
The choice to make
And so we do
Instinctively, habitually
Compulsively or consciously
A choice that’s always ours

Whose world do you live in after all
One inherited from deceivers
Who apply bandaid visions
To your mind
Or

So not funny

No so funny, man,
Feeding me spam,
Morbidly yours, all right,
More verbs, how blight,
Don't waste your words,
You're beyond absurd,
Negative chaff and chatter,
Really does not matter,
Get over yourself, 
Get off that shelf,
Go get a life,
Signed, your only wife!
No one believes your spam,
Morbidly yours, now scram! 

Childhood Days

I reflect on our childhood days,
Not such pure and perfect ways,
Mother nagged us for so long,
Her negative carp was very strong,
When we kids reached our teens,
That's when she got really mean,
Endearing not, was the scene,
Past of our family magazine,
Now we look back and laugh,
Turn the page on mother's chaff!

Separate Wheat From Chaff

I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
is winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn

Am I
by Michael R. Burch

Am I inconsequential;
do I matter not at all?
Am I just a snowflake,
to sparkle, then to fall?

Am I only chaff?
Of what use am I?
Am I just a feeble flame,
to flicker, then to die?

Am I inadvertent?
For what reason am I here?
Am I just a ripple
in a pool that once was clear?

Lamet!

is what she hears first
him, screaming her second name
as he descends upon her
no time to process
gravity
a thud, tearing her core to shavings
Maiweeeee! She is puzzled.

His baritone dropping the 'n'
agitation
a wooden scrabble.
Nothing is left between her
and Pee, not a grain
all’s crushed
smothering their screams
interlocking their groans.

He is a pawn, no saphead
giving it to her, a pounding
her splinters

Chaff and the Vagabond

Loyalty brings even the fortified few to falter somnambulantly in succession
As if tranced to commit, their convictions are true yet skewed
The blind emotional outburst of bigotry and cynicism conveyed 
Is but a microcosm of what pain these individuals likely feel
Something of an atrocity to be used and told when to kneel
Although the accused has seen

Chaff In the Wind

life lost
hope lost
loved ones die, bravery gets applauded
cities shut down, the economy collapsed
no food
no work
no cash


stay home
wear mask
an effective vaccine, the miracle drug 
human contact, grandparents get a kiss
love smiles
hold hands
tender hugs


new year
new hope
yesterday's legacy, chaff in the wind
forgotten miseries; stories lost to time
a chance
a prayer
a dream

Separating the Wheat From the Chaff

Duality which is in motion must be stilled
If we would observe singular reality within
Muddied waters need to be distilled 
Only when the mists clear, may meditation begin

Perpetual motion of body, senses & thought
Grooves of habit having huge momentum 
Repressed subconscious fears & desires, which we forgot
Are all our nemesis resident in the egos sanctum

Without stopping

Her Beauty Without Blemish

Beauty without blemish... This is a unusual behavioral response  to this beauty mishmash...

All along I've been in darkness...Not until her glowing splendor of beauty shone in my life with meekness...

I could do anything to impress her... I knew you're for me Vanessa..

Your lips speaks a flamboyant melody to my ear.. How I wish u

Honesty Separates the Wheat From Chaff

Snake oil does not cure the curse when it enters the blood
Two blind eyes have turned face inside they burn out of focus
Cold as ice cutting to the core nightshades has twisted the soul
love your enemies as they suffer from hate
it is time to bury the hatchet in words
When humans take away certain values we

Chaff

Canine teeth that glimmer with the moonlights gaze
Open mouthed to taste unsalted tears of dripping clouds
Howls are gargled as they swallow the forlorn
Straw men sit and sift the spaces
that make their shifting frame
Wheat whips splash across the backs
as yelping oil dogs
turn to puddles black
Straw men slowly hack
at chaff offspring
that seem to laugh
Obsidian flame burning in

Dont Be As Chaff

Don’t Be As Chaff
Written: by Tom Wright
10-21-2016

It’s a stressful time frame in which we live,
The world situation is making many sick.
Heart’s filled with hate, little love to give,
Surely God readies to come back quick.

Protest and violence plague every land,
And our cry continues for peace once more.
While failing to adhere to God’s command,
Earthly peace, we seek,

We As a World Separating Wheat From the Chaff

Where one grain of sand can become a castle 
crumbing it has lost all compass bearing truth 
loosing all sense of living reality twisted under moral direction
pretending to care with uneducated values 
calling insanely on the death sentence heresy 
chanting for thee blood of the innocent 
this begins an old ancient curse born
