Long Attributions Poems

Evolution Not God

It is the case that there is no God,
He does not exist, he is not the one,
He is not there, he’s not everyone’s invisible puppet,
It is not personal, he is not the Son.

Rolly, rolling in shallow surf, every wave a wisp
that'll move me through this sticky sand to the lush land.
Lumbering, waterlogged, soggy heap in my tux,
arms flopping, flailing about, cool currents fill my ears;
mere vestige of...

Convict us of a...

There where you had no occasion for play
There in your confined Ming I space
Where change wrought no change
In your fate
But for those plagued by your...

somewhere within her Gaian ruling reign.
She walked lost
through this morning's reforesting project,
learning to spring back together
what had fallen into last night's cold morbidity.

Princess Golden was hungry
for WinWin rules of nutritional global play.

"Go find her, set her free."

In my search, I found an array of colourful petals,
An abundance of aromatic aromas.

Each one, I hydrated with my blood and tears,
But each one pricked...

When I was 13 I was diagnosed with depression.
I had multiple therapy sessions.
Trying to find a solution at my discretion.
I was under such operation, 
Trying to tell my confessions. 
I was unconsciously being repressive, 
And...

Hands down, perhaps a more sapien trait
than most of the usual attributions of
what it is, that distinguishes humans.
I listen to a prime example of Sondheim
samples on a Steinway & Sons eighty-eight.

Balancing between enchantment and amazement

Good leaders cannot agree about world order
Yet many believe freedom is indivisible
Privileged tolerance then shall foil fool's fancy

If freedom is intrinsic in the human race
Will we agree it is a right for everyone
Are all fated...

God, what do you like to laugh about?
You like to laugh with us or at us?
Or both?
Do you see yourself in us God?
Do you see us trying to fix things?
Things that we know are broken...

Timothy rarely laughed but had a certain wicked grin,
not that grin when one smiles too widely:
his untrustworthy looks were very scary:
why couldn't he act like the happy Huckleberry Finn?

Unforgiving, rebellious, arrogant and insane
were the many...

The insanity of humanity brings forth days of penal retribution,
in reality, the fatality of good deeds deserves a substitution.
All the brutality and profanity provokes nothing but destitution,
while the vitality and good mentality is lost in...

My worst fear occurred and I did slip and clamber, 
With people watching my statements of thunder, 
But I did shout my attributions of collectivity grand, 
Until they understood not to tremor my shaky hand....

Myth of the peculiar pelican
Whose bill bloodies its feathery breast
Feeding blood to the chicks in its nest
Ancient acts ever evangelic
Sole sacrifice for the pelican
Whose beak speaks more than a relic can
