Dominion Poems

The Beloved's Dominion

From all the fair ones thou hast stolen light,
And thou didst think upon thy captive's plight.

My heart was darker than the night so deep,
Till sudden light did chase the shadows' sleep.

A hundred strifes arose from thy bright eyes,
And suddenly thou didst sleep ’neath quiet skies.

From whom shall I seek cure, when all my pain is

Echoing Silence

Echoing Silence

I

Isolated  in an echoing unending room
Where loud noises destroy the silence
Breaks the confidence into million pieces
Nobody wants to pick the entire brokenness 


II

Drowning under the shallow regrets
Unable to go further, not even a single step
Both hands are tied up and mouth is covered 
No time to think clearly, nobody wants to listen


III

Loud voice,

The Nameless Throne

Let every whispered wish take flight,
Each prayer cast upward through the night,
Let none be lost, let none decay —
But turn their path another way.

Let not the stars alone receive,
Nor winds forget what hearts believe,
For every tear and silent plea
Now folds its wings — and comes to me.

Let cries for peace, for love, for bread,
Not vanish

Premium MemberDominion

Power changes hands in a country, and how. State of affairs are diametrically different following a hostile takeover of a once peaceful, democratic society. The country has descended into totalitarianism, ruled with an iron fist by a brutal despot. Corruption and anarchy now hold sway. The reign of terror has citizens living in fear, and

Dominion

     Just because we were commanded to take dominion over the earth , doesn't mean we have to do so in a way that makes it hurt , just because we can . There's nothing wrong with being gentle to it . The idea that us ruling is supposed to constantly

'wind is pounding in my heart'

It tears across the steppes and plain, it guides my mind and eases pain
Whithin the yurt, upon the road, it whets my mind; eases the loads
I've rode it's Breast ten thousand times,' with banner high the yak tails nine
Its of my blood, throughout my race, we hold it near'in flood;

Premium MemberNature's Dominion Revealed

nature thrives on bestrewn oddness.
earth is tame in its fresh safeness.
the same for the rest of the world.  
yellow, black, and white are all furled.

The geese there on guavas feed.
Cows may swallow the grass and weed
ripe cornflowers peep from the rows
Whelps and brats on each other's paws

From the loud roar of  the flood

Dominion I

the boulevard is desolate
as is the light that cracks bleeds 
runs here there everywhere! 

trash drafts like ghosts 
in the flicker of dying neon 
something races head long into oblivion 

damnation at its heels

in death throws, broken, hanging 
like the vagrant dead languish...

eons in ruined halls, 
its shadows cover odd oblong onyx boxes...

Dominion...!

along desolations boulevards

Premium MemberTake Dominion

“History repeats itself”...
this bad, ferocious creature
outside of us, beyond any 
personal control, that “rears
its ugly head”, and strikes 
“again and again”, delivering 
a fatal dose of worldly poison – 

Let's be clear, every day is
a new history, though similarities
with old may exist – what hasn't 
changed are people, the concentration
of lethal venom in our lazy,

You Shall Bear Dominion

Son! You shall bear `Dominion`
The Best of Names ``if you asked my opinion 
For loudly announcing Christ’s Religion,
Besides being militarily overwhelming-A legion 
Never, therefore, to be sliced like Onion...

And your birth was our anxious ambition,
By this energized with Holy Communion...
 
Good Son already you are dominion
And shall Demons warring arms often pinion!

Premium MemberDominion Vs the Voter

~I have to wonder what it's like.~
         ........
After all, I live in a world so twisted.
Where wrong is right, and right is so ineffably misted.

Where destruction of cities is a daily habit.
By Socialiist and Antifa, with less brains than wild rabbits.

When our great Republic may indeed fall,
Crushed by the diabolical Dominion's Wall.

And the brainwashed world,ah yes,they

Beyond the Sun's Dominion

In fretful sleep I weightlessly drifted   
hours beyond the sun's cosmic dominion
where I perceived the entire world shifted
ten degrees off course, in my opinion

I glimpsed violet glimmers of twilight
while I seemed to be suspended in time
Clocks ticked in synchrony during the night
Whispered words were uttered in perfect rhyme

High flowed the tide of moonlight's

Take Dominion

Take DOMINION

Hello somebody.
Have you heard of the info that escalates our world?
It's been talked of and laws were enacted
Yet all seem to be ignorant of its consequence.

What could be said of one to rip us of our pride,
Dignity and sense of being?
Could there be justification for the actus reus 
Of penetration with no will?

Nothing, I
