When Holy Hands Drop Bombs
What makes it okay to bomb a nation? Kill so many who don’t have a station? Destroy a country, cities and families? Women, babies, children and men—all tragedies— Who never chose this war… suffer again and again. Across the globe, a catch twenty-two Do what I say, not as I do. What happened to the Fifth Commandment?, In a world where religion is...

Heavy Hands
With the weight of the world In your hands You quickly learn and understand Dependency is something to be ashamed of When you hand that weight to someone else You wanna take it back You practically beg So you don't see them in the same pain With the weight back You begin to crumble And all 8 billion of the people And all...

The Man Who Held His World In His Hands
Maybe love is forever Or at least long enough Maybe devotion is definite Or will at least last a lifetime Maybe you can have everything in the palm of your hand Because I once saw a man With his world in his hands Every Sunday at 8:30 am sharp The golden hour of the morning When the sun is warming Not yet burning When the day...

Premium Member REMEMBERING MY FATHER'S HANDS
MY FATHER'S HANDS I remember my father’s hands as a plumber’s hands—fiercely strong, calloused, rough, knuckle-battered, and dirty after a long-day’s work. Those hands shoveled; unclogged drains and toilets; repaired leaks; and installed pipes, commodes, and bathtubs. Those hands provided. I remember my father’s hands as a fisherman’s hands—perfectly patient, tenacious, self-confident, and unwavering as he...

Not With Hands
He taught me how to wield the weapon made of words— a blade that kills, now saving lives, like it once saved mine. My own work pulled me back from the edge. And in it, he lives— my teacher, the man behind the lines. Words— once carved deep in the mind— outlive the flesh, outlast the hands that once shaped them. His words stopped me from falling to the hundred voices that came to...

Hands Of Clay
Silence! A labouring sleep, Got into trance Of a great leap! Away from residence. The crush to say As adultage, Meant to be paid. Has gained teenage, Having hands of clay! Those responsibility A man gains Bearing sensibility. Inside the rain, Has got his ability! Soft gentle hands, Got them to pawn. Changing the books, Also about the pen, Beneathing piercing hook! Congrats ERA! Dreams broke, Desires too! After the father, Of great gratitude!...

The Palm of your Hands
He Kept looking into the palm of his hands To see if there is something that he could understand But the words continue to scroll up and down like Writings on a page revealing his old age, There was something in the light that he Could not see that was draining his Physical energy, it was just...

I want to hold your hand
Inspired by The Beatles' song "I want to hold your hand" ....................... A lot still in my mind to say, For you to understand, I pray. See! Close to you I firmly stand, But first, "I want to hold your hand". As I pour out what’s in my mind, Please let our hearts become aligned. Let words flow with joy and with glee. Say it...

Two small fists discover the world is round, blue, and fits exactly between wonder and wanting. Mouth opens the first laboratory, where everything must be tested: texture, temperature, the taste of curiosity. Eyes focus, hands follow, brain fires tiny lightning storms of connection: I can make things happen. This is how learning begins, not with books or words, but with the simple revolutionary...

Premium Member Pretty Hands Maigc 9
A pair of pretty hands with precision shoot daft sunshine-filled sparks. Her heated strut creates a collision between what’s frozen and a wildfire. Lightning rod with the sound turned on an interstellar quake… Bringing about melodic destruction and that season built for heartbreak. A moving summer solstice vision. ...
