Premium MemberEmma and Deacon

Emma, Empress of Unicorn Empire,
esprit de corps of elementary school,
expeditious at exaggerating expression,
eagerly extending empathy of enormous embrace,
endless enthusiasm, exuberant existence.

Deacon, Duke of derring-do,
diligently, doggedly daily to delightful displays
of dauntless daredevil, destruction,
determined gamer, droll demeanor,
dearly dedicated to devouring desserts,
Dad's double, diplomat of Dreamland.

Premium MemberThe Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ

It is no small feat to attempt to speak 
of the dying of our Lord
who sacrificed Himself for us 
by a fate far worse than fire or by sword.  
For one as whom not qualified 
to write of this great deed,
the Son of God who gave Himself 
for such a fool as me.
I beg

The Bearded Deacon Who Became a Saint

How melancholic was the silent Saint Peter's Basilica
without a melody played by the bearded deacon,
priest of the Camelites who died in sea-washed Licata;
there, the Viol was played by Angelic of Jerusalem!  
For years, it was covered in dust and fallen into oblivion:
it missed the Gregorian music sang with sheer enthusiasm!  

A humble pilgrim

Premium MemberI Am Deacon Blues

Please allow me to
Introduce myself to you
I'm more than human

I am Deacon Blues
I seem to have lost my muse
Is it all a ruse?

I'm also Robot
Mr. Roboto I am
All made in Japan

I've blown my fuses
Wires all burnt and twisted
All circuits are down

Joints need oiling
And my main frame is boiling
My coils recoiling

My hat's a bit loose
Can't fit

Poem For Deacon Jeanne Miller

Poem For Deacon Jeanne Miller

Was amazed when I found my worst enemy
Actually ended up being I, myself and me
Throughout all of time and deep into space
And, of course, it was me setting the pace.

Out of complete control turned out being
And only myself who was worth seeing
Had an ego within my bright, big head
If only I

Prayer Power: Initial Sermon of Deacon Bennetta Gipson-Carroll

everyday I see people dwelling in the dark dungeons of life
and despite them trying to do the right thing they're struck with trouble and strife
felled by illness, unemployment, homelessness and all manners of despair
but I've never seen anyone who would not then kneel down in prayer

prayer is a conversation that takes place between you and

Deacon Jones

Outback of Blue Moons neighborhood grill and bar,

Sat deacon Jones old beat up car.

An old car he used that few people knew,

To help hide the fact that he was addicted to the Devil's Brew.


Then next day with a smiling face and blood shot eyes,

He greeted the congregation hoping no one there would be the wise.

A
