Driving Wheels, Crosses On The Side Of The Road
Crosses on the side of the road; Belief in passengers goes by — Where wrecked light within flowers grow, Crosses on the side of the road That besides the glass window hold, A memory's attest to time — Crosses on the side of the road, Belief in passengers goes by — ...

What crosses the line
What crossed the line with you Was it something said or a thing to do Did you suffer it in silence made And wonder at the next escapade Is it a memory held deep down That surfaces like a buoy in ocean bound To bob and ring its bell Knowing it is part of your private hell So what will you do about...

Hills And Crosses
Hills & Crosses I hung myself on a cross To atone for my works An attempt on my soul To rid him off of his unwholesomeness To cut off the tree of transgressions, I continously ate of its fruit thereof There was a darkness in us And I have had mine with me for the longest It had...

Premium Member I stand alone and gaze upon the field full of crosses
I stand alone and gaze upon the field full of crosses, In silence, with an empty soul, I think of the days that have passed, My pockets are full of sad thoughts, like faithful dogs, I stand alone and listen to the rustling of bones, the echo of the past, of vivid memories. The wind blows gently, like a...

Premium Member The Three Crosses
The middle cross, 'redemption' declares, God's love revealed through Jesus Christ's death, His body broken, sin's brunt, He bears; One thief by His side, 'rejection' shows, Mocked Christ's deity, offered no pray'rs, Gave up his only chance at heaven; The other one totally despairs, Fears God ere taking his final breath, 'Reception' of Christ - paradise heirs....

Some bear brilliant buds, beings II Little rocks jump up and converse, too - Take me home, paint a cross, for children Call it your little rock ministry III Across the miles, weeds & rocks console me They nurture what's hurt, need another touch Not always...

Improvised, Noughts and Crosses
"Improvised, Noughts and Crosses" points strung pearls lacking wisdom scattered poetically, of no large matter rolling lost across a floor stuck in the cracks hidden in strange corners, what do points matter; when connected unbroken, the creative heart improvised united, becomes beautiful more pure, of some composed great importance, love like magic, lifts the room vibrating higher by score the lost pearls. points wedged in strange corners, hear the sound lifted, they understand, it all improvised, vibrating...

“Lynching” Black man floating in space Knotted rope about his face Crosses burning White sheets chanting Black man squirming Blue knee choking Buildings burning Dark nights looming A noose from a tree A boot and a knee A black man dead No one lead Gutters vomiting Jesus faltering Canisters of tears Scattering fears Memories from the past Recall the last Nothing changed Our nation estranged Horrible brutality Watching reality A hang...

Premium Member Three Crosses
One cross Left side Silent bore the shame of cursed Guilt, with scant remorse and no Small scoff Unfearful of Dying breath. Middle rood Central one Focus of the centuries distant yon Condemned to die for all, Godson Giving weak Lost souls Eternal life. One cross Right side Afraid to pay earned shameful debt Seeks...
