Acts of contrition, on knees if I recount
Beatitudes, eight, sermon on the mount
Charity given, is blessings received

God I’m so fragile right now.
It’s like I’m walking on a bridge of glass.
As if I’m stepping carefully, cautiously across a tightrope.
My self esteem...

And all of this was justified
About a concept that eludes me

Yes I’ve tried to understand...

Seduced by Poseidon's Daughter
by John Michaels
As rippling horizon
douses fiery orb,
you are at your
most alluring.
Ethereal,
diaphanous limbs
stretch out,
reach for me,
beckon to me.
Barely audible murmurs,
laced with
forbidden promises,
cross the distance
between us.
Whispers become
more insistent,
more urgent,

The Big Pang
by jamie brolin
"The Big Pang"
Eon upon eon
Unaware,
Alone.
Unconscious.
It runs rings
Until the firmament erodes.
Revelation:
It had been here
Before.
Isolation:
Unable to weather
The pain that it bore.
Circular,
Its radial track
Laves.
The basalt mantle
Conceals,
Swathes,
An ancient...
