Ancient building, columns define. Eden’s forever garden hidden. Indelibly juxtapositioned kaleidoscopic lake maintains numerous orchidaceae. Porticos’ quaint, reclused, sequestered. Tetrastylon unseen villa’s with xystus, Yogananda’s Zen....

Caverns
The drop of water Natures only noise Curiosity caught her Had no other choice Hands, trembling Flashing eyes Integrity disassembling Cave, stone skies Man made, cracking pillars Holds up uneven rock The innocent are killers Ringing sound, a mocking jay mock Deeper she wades Heart pounding harder Light she evades Evil’s own martyr Led to die Born to float Dead she lie Maggot’s boat Her last day, Far from joyful Panicked disarray Remain ever loyal She won’t be...

Premium Member Cast the First Stone
To the cameraman who through your distant lense sees one man with another's wife, and clicks and silently uploads, to expose, and so to make those lives implode. Who do you see behind your shuttered home? With wife away and children gone, no prying eye save God's alone, yet, still you pick and throw first stone. To the journalist, seekings idle...

Rows Versus Columns
A whale kilowatt is a power source indeed. Floatation over gallons is a fantastic idea. But when a raven flies in a circular fashion it is then time for the washing party of grizzly bears who arrive at the exact time of the water gush. Questionable motives from biscuit faced men who seek to destroy...

Columns and Ranks (20140925) Standing straight in columns and ranks, Heads newly shaved by the barber, Carrying guns loaded with blanks: New recruits after Pearl Harbor. The Generals inspected troops, Standing straight in columns and ranks; Afterwards they broke into groups, And marched towards the ships’ gangplanks. They boarded ships with guns and tanks To England, the Atlantic crossed. Standing straight in columns and ranks, They’d free...

Premium Member Marble In Columns On Green
On a slope graced with green White marble stands in proud salute For beneath these engraved pillars of memory Lie the resting places of heroes A solitary green fir looks down As if sheltering the lost and the taken So many names, from all walks of life A father, brother a girlfriend or wife On a sunny day, they glow radiant like their...
