Vision from a Deity
I asked for a vision and I saw none
I asked for a vision and I saw none!
Walking into the store, I found myself wondering if I was good enough for anyone!
I asked for a vision and I saw none!
Going about my day I kept thinking about my decisions and whether I was worthy!
Worthy for anyone!
I

Deity of Warfare
What great menace pulls us to destruction
What warmonger! What hatred loving beast!
Who savages the innocence of children
The miracle of flowers and serenity of peace
Earth’s wonders plummet down in fatal vortex
In power of Atoms mortals misconstrued
Unleashed at last Pandora’s final power
Predictable Apocalypse imbued
If let die - this Earth - this living opal
This quondam living opal, if

Gentle's Deity
Once at my lowest, yet I stride,
With the poise of a boss, I take my pride.
Light beckons softly at the tunnel's end,
In lands of the blind, the one-eyed man ascends.
I need no admiration; the draw’s reversed,
She sent her photo—a sweet smile rehearsed.
Alone in

Attired In Elysian Clothes Like Deity
Nocturnal dreams of midnight fantasies
neon flowers alongside scented lily pads
Rippling clouds, crossings on the moon
magnetic fields of bluing yes I see
Angels flying, flitting, round the globe
calling over stars to light the path
Magistrates of heaven glorious chants
soft and mellow pastel like the sea
Beatific vocals soft as voices of the

Deity
Dormant as the sun when moonlight clothes the night
brilliant as stars of heaven clipped with diadem delight
Divine in nature one with beings, known beyond compare
you are eternal and immutable, in a natural world of air.

Terrorists' Deity
Barbarity's own Deity,
The "Black Knight" of perversity:
Ascending through gross ignorance,
Descending on to Hell's province.
This callous god despises light
And seeks the deepest, darkest night.
It spawns a cult of terrorists -
Impoverished, soulless separatists.
This cunning god invites the "lost"
To join its cause, but at what cost?
It sacrifices human fate
For what its creed would consecrate.
This corrupt god projects

The Green Man
acorns and leaves
make up his mind too
as foliage entwines ours
like bridges,
like walkways,
camouflaged in an
every-day of solitude;
these berries may not last;
his thought runs deeper
- deities of the core,
the spirits would say -
to old log fires
by weathered stone,
you, his old flame, share
but only when you think
we're thirsty, that is

Dumpster-Diving Deity
Dumpster-Diving Deity
By Mark D. Stucky
Dirty, broken, and forgotten,
discarded as worthless junk
at garage sales and trash collections,
were treasures I have rescued.
Where others saw rubbish,
the eye of this beholder
saw creative potential.
After repairing, cleaning,
and polishing or painting,
the old items were resurrected
into new lives and new homes
with myself and others.
Likewise, the Word-made-flesh dumpster-dove
into the bloody wreckage of our world,
to

Hail Farmer Deity
Fantasy ...
Farmer chills
even on heap of chillies
After all, chilles are his babies
he nursed, made it ready for dishes
Harvest joy, no less than a winner
Time to voyage in blissful orbiter
Not as a toiling Farmer
But as a harvesting Emperor
Reality ...
Though deity of food, fodder
Farmers, unaware of own future
Will crop be meager or

Brevity Is Beauty Told By a Deity
One poetess advised me to be brief
As my words can be easily recollected
She is no more, but her advice lingers
I nowadays think of her with gratitude
Only when we are brief and to the point
Our message will be read by everyone
As, all are worried over loss of time
And brevity makes them never worry
Even if my poetry

Father Time
Father, here I am again at Thy feet,
Asking for some bread to eat.
Perhaps I’ve had more tricks than treats.
May Thou feed me some nourishing words,
Of something bitter sweet.
Maybe while we talk, I can wash Thy feet.
Right now, I am in great need,
And need someone to talk to, can it be Thee?
I want to thank Thee

Apokaliptikus Deity
now i know the details of the creatures
who walked around the Earth department
I always acted with them in this movie
until the projectile I sent split the base of the pavement
and the shards mark this end
what is human inside them bids farewell
they sadly greet their fate and goodbye
yes, i'm here assuming i could have been better
if

blessed with charming elegance

May
The month of May is here,
To everyone dear.
Each day beautiful flowers bloom,
Displayed in each room.
Mother's Day guests.
Especially in the west.
Parents and children say,
What a nice day.
Walks in the god weather,
Where parents and children walk together/.
What shall I say,
The sun is shinning today..
Thanks be,
To the divine deity.
