Destiny Poems

Maybe it’s when they are born that their heart shows signs of fault.
That instead of pumping red, they pump blue into the body of steel.
Maybe when they take their first breathes, some specs of evil enter their little lungs,

Breakings
by Michael R. Burch

I did it out of pity.
I did it out of love.
I did it not to break the heart of a tender, wounded dove. 

But gods without compassion
ordained: "Frail things must break!"
Now what can I do for her...Read More

This is one of my most treasured songs. 
I've grown very fond of my PSoup pen pals and gals. 
Thus, I'm would love to share
a most intimate part 
of this Romantic Warrior heart.



With butterfly thoughts,
I open my eyes
each day

This fluttering...Read More

Make a wish 

You toss a coin 
Into a well 
Make a wish 
And never tell 
Cas to keep the secret 
Safe Inside of you 
Is the only way 
The wish comes true
And while we wait 
We know in time...Read More

grave request
by Michael R. Burch

come to ur doom
in Tombstone;

the stars stark and chill
over Boot Hill

care nothing for ur desire;

still,

imagine they wish u no ill,
that u burn with the same antique fire;

for there’s nothing to life but the thrill
of living until...Read More

QUOTE:
“The moon is a loyal companion.
It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast,
knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever
just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself.
Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full...Read More

Heart raptures are often revisited,
When poring over the things He said;
And as a rousing drama replays again,
All evergreen is love's aged domain!

Words of prophets in the mind recur;
The divine tales of each messenger-
How Moses by God obtained the law,
Then merciful...Read More

I wish for you...........impossible things 
I hear you running rings 

I see you...........in days of pain and despair 
I wish for you to repair 

Surviving as you are 
Wandering a vast mental scar
Dreading the moment your eyes open 
Treading deep-water...Read More

There's that sound again
A sound of dying 
And the company of a friend

In this twilight shine
Black ash and a silver cloud
This sliver of hope makes a dumb man proud

It doesn't matter
If to the left or right this wind blows
This is...Read More

Paying forward kindnesses done...
courtesy family, friend or stranger

Appreciative when nonagenarian
papa telepathically hears me yelp
and/or non twisted sisters,
who time and again offered
unsolicited beneficial help.

Indeed unable to reciprocate
that's not quite all he wrote
when kith/kin allotted this ole goat
specie, paper money, and bank...Read More

Little bits of bitterness
is trying to hold on;
This time 
Time is teaching ,
the Art of withdrawn.

In panic; the pain
The sunshine to the droplets of rain
They say it will come,
Eventually through Time .
The black thundering nights have blue sky
Hidden behind.

It shall...Read More

Brevity perhaps was his destiny
Eternity his true fate of time
Leaving so many wounded in disbelief
Only one child were to carry on his legacy
Veiled to walk down the isle alone
Endlessly searching for her father
David my only brother, taken too soon



(David means...Read More

The world is an oven
we live in

With each scorching,
its temperature grows

Unable to stop,
hands fall off the clock

Left roasting
—goose cooking below

There's not a soul who wants to confront that All we are is REAL. 
Our bodies interact within the level of the molecular, Our emotional aspect interacts within the level of chemistry, Our minds interaction is electrical, Though our awareness...Read More

New moon new broom 
Help is coming soon
New moon new broom
My love is coming at noon
The sun is very hot 
And sweat is dripping from my back
I want a new frock to take the heat off my back
It is a...Read More

So usually when I write I'll do allot of editing, I'll read and read and re-read over and over again, change verses, change words until I feel I got it down to a T, well this one I wanted to...Read More

At the brink of my horizon dipped in destiny free
when the new sun arose in spectral color spree,
my lone languid life woke up and promised me 
someday it would sail me across the stormy sea
to the iridescent island of my...Read More

After many miles
Into undiscovered lands, 
I now find my home.

For those who have been waiting
To journey ahead.

Atheism,
for a Taoist
and for UUs
and Zeroists,
and Not ZeroSumists,
and Positive ZeroZone Therapists,
is synonymous with Agnosticism
and maybe Gnostic BiCameral Consciousness.

Healthy skeptics,
but not pessimists,
Agnostics understand how win/lose leftbrain either/or dominant
intelligent people
confuse Atheism with AntiTheism
but do not internally suffer from these competing
and ambivalent 
anxious
depressing...Read More

I ran as if an hurricane blew me along, so swift my journey,
I did not stop to admire hill nor mountain as my breath labored,
finally I could run no more and stopped.

I heard as my pursuer gathered pace and neared...Read More

Infinity Found

If joy could just be measured in a flower,
And happiness's worth by breadth of smile,
Or all life's pleasures fit into an hour,
What of my journey fits into a mile?

I traveled far upon an ocean deep,
Then trod the land where...Read More

Her, a vision of loveliness i must concur, an odor of the finest myrrh.
I can feel her presence in the air. I call to her I only hear whispers her
face is but a blur.

One of life's beautiful themes, walking, holding...Read More
