The longing of an eternal: Inspired from The Sandman by Neil Gaimon
As the dream king is sat at his throne...
What am I to do whilst I am away? What then would befall my kingdom? There is still so much to do but yet, I am administered so little time. I am here now but what should take priority? This throne alike every footstep of mine bears

What Shall We Do
Let each of us, from our heart,
do what we are led to do.
If the intent is for the good of ourselves,
others, or all of humanity,
it will be a good thing that each of us will do.

Paranoid Inspired By Ozzy Tribute
I walked in and was blindsided,
your racing pulse I had to steal.
With the first glance fate decided,
I walked in and was blindsided.
Crazy train of thoughts misguided
this love to me seemed so unreal.
I walked in and was blindsided,
your racing pulse I had to steal.

Moonlight Sky
Moonlight sky-
Shimmering like pearls above high.
Below I stand,
Chasing the dreams that fly.
Stars may flicker-
Moon shines bright.
Soft winds rustle,
Past the lashes of my eye..
Whispering the tales,
That remain veiled.
The cosmos holds that embrace,
In which I find my solace..

Because I Would Not Stop for Death: A Homage to Emily Dickinson
after Because I could not stop for Death, by Emily Dickinson
Because I would not stop for Death,
he kindly stopped for me.
A wilted bouquet in one hand—
a reminder of life's mortality.
We began to walk—he knew no haste—
side by side, as we always were.
In silence, no sympathies were spoken,
as he knew I often preferred.
We passed the house

Using AI in soup contests - Inspired by Unseeking Seeker’s and Tania's blogs
Your cheating ways, you've sunk so low,
to win contests - that isn't right.
You've used AI, few sponsors know
Your cheating ways
MY ideas form, it’s time to write,
(Unlike AI, my brain is slow)
When poem’s done, I feel delight!
But AI wins, it's quite a blow
It's unfair and I feel uptight
We're NOT blind sheep, I want to show
Your cheating

Only our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is well able and willing to deliver us
O it's only my precious Lord and Savior, who is really able,
To freely and fully deliver yours very truly,
From all of my habitual sins and all too persistent,
Inequities. O how far have I fallen from Your grace?
It's a miraculous miracle that you have not hidden
Your holy face far far far away from the likes of

What's the logic
Ladies worth are in the kitchen,
But this generation, Gen Z sold them out to men.
What's the logic?
Human can't live without food,
Yet ladies worth are now in men custody,
Because men in charge of the kitchen
You may ask, why am I so proud?
It's because that's what I worked hard for.
I'm proud of my craft, my worth,

Inspired By A Good Hearted Citizen
I lost a bracelet
Returned to the place where I bought
There I found it
Someone has tied it hanging
There a caption I read:
"Lost and found bracelet,
Claim with a receipt."
I gave the receipt and claim it again
I'm happy to see that there are still
People who have a heart of a good citizen.

There are things I know that you will never be sure about. My life was easy, you have gone through more than me but I understand the world just the same. Every path I take I take with uncertainty and conditional faith, every path I avoid I avoid with thought and assuredness.

Photography Inspired By You
My photography style is you:
I hear you. I see you.
You are beautiful.
Wish me luck
On my journey.
And so it begin,
With a camera,
A little snap click
My interest begun,
Every angle requires
Precision and appreciation
Ignites my interest
In photography, in beauty
In nature, then you of course.

Children of Cain inspired other theological ruminations
"Reification" has it that biologically-intrinsic "Morality" understood as a-priori to Perception makes "Religion" a "Collective" or "Shared" Psychological experience.

Put it this way: ~ God = the unpatterned, unnameable origin of all value = Dynamic Quality = the ineffable source that both creates and escapes form. ~ Science then wouldn't "believe in God" the

A Journal on Profundity
So... today I begin my journal.
Where do I begin?
How do I begin?
Without, within... the confines of a page, like a prison wall the surrounds my thoughts.
"You must color within the lines" I recall my kindergarten teacher instructing us, otherwise we won't graduate and move on to first grade.
And at 58, that merciless and
