Prayers Like Incense
My prayers rise before God like sweet incense. Before him all my facades fall away. I am left standing without a pretense And I am left with not a word to say. His glory once again fills his temple And all the things of this world become dim. Before his great holiness I tremble And all I can see are visions of...

Premium Member In the cathedral of night, a new phantasm rises from the incense smoke of burnt rules
In the cathedral of night, a new phantasm rises from the incense smoke of burnt rules, Altars of therapy crumble under the weight of our unspoken prayers, Our steps, like lost pilgrims, are swallowed by streets paved with tears of stars, Where locusts of prophecy weave their sonorous mantle in the temple of our weary ears. Silence suffocates us,...

In the cathedral of my thoughts, words rise like incense smoke towards the vaults of the unknown, And I, a pilgrim through the labyrinth of my own consciousness, seek to catch moonbeams in a net, to weave from them the mantle of the ineffable. Ancestral voices resound from the depths, speaking of art that conquers time and...

Deciding the Fate of a Fugitive
So, now, you all are positive Ted Osprey is a fugitive, That his last name is not Osprey: A smart corruption of Godfrey While his 'Ted' First should have been, Fred; Some would rather he's called 'Red'... And you're also quite positive He was no clean operative, Rather working for evil men Soon staying in a house, next den... Clear, Godfrey is now...

Incense
In the Real Estate section, A question arose About incense within your abode. Certain buildings have rules That prohibit its use And the writer was set to explode. If some candles are lit For the Sabbath by some, Why can’t she light her incense as well? Her religion requires That incense is burned But the difference, to me, is the smell. With most incense, the scent Is intense...

Satanology 9 Satan and Things
Blood Satan likes but on this no blame: Lord God and Christ do too: Preferred flame Then, wickedly, goes for Goring Horns, His own copy of Christ’s Crowning Thorns: The Horns not for self-caricature, Rather for use after your capture To make things never look the same, Though in your mirrors old selves remain When its darkness...

An Answer To Breast Cancer
Soon, it got up to Dr. Spencer Burning incense on coppery censer In pursuit of a fitting answer To the craziest hard hitting cancer: A line he’d toed for an ulcer And it result gave him for Gastric Seltzer… Krishna clouds their way making for a breast, Not for once letting be the crest, Incense one, Incense...

Her Laughter Is All Seasons
Her laughter is all seasons: It is the April rain that trickles like a fugue Down the twisted branches of the laburnum. It is the sparkling rill that rushes gaily From the first bite of a summer strawberry. It is the incense mist that dances volute Through the golden leaf of the temple forest. It is the sleepy smoke that rises softly From...
