Thank You for building me up in my moments of weakening
Always binding me against brokenness with Your revival-pruning
Surely breaking my pride from haughty sinning.

Surely causing my soul to awake from carnality’s night.

Surely defending my faith from being buried into doubts’ corruption.

Thank You for fighting for me by Your searching honour’s color
Always framing me up in Your prosperity in my being Your divine sailor
Surely fueling my spirit, freed from shame-jailor.

Thank You for gearing me to Your perfect will of gracious bounty
Always guiding me by Your loving holy authority
Surely gladdening my heart in Your peace-safety.

Surely holding my life forever until I reach Your eternal gloriousness.

Premium Member Echo

Like, from within boiled kettles raise sprites, Maya the Echo,
Dominates Marvel Comics with her facial art deco;  
Adopted daughter of Kingpin, lion-like rough villain,
Kills her father; rears her, like wolf-child, to fill his guilt in...!

Scenes, like plays, tell us Maya in mentally disabled,
With pomp education, she is psychically enabled;
With Matt Murdock, like bee in honey, she fast falls in love,
Lo, she hunts him down; tigress-like! As though in hand and glove...! 

Does Matt murder sooth her heart? Isn't he the Daredevil?
Truths revealed by Matt, adopted father she does bevel; 
Like sages meeting the chosen saints, she turns to herself,
Making peace like nail and flesh, she opens long-locked inner shelf...!

Photographic reflex; like heaven and hell, Echo held, 
Mimicking any one, like Photostat, magic she spelled; 
Avenged and revenged, like ready-made robot, rough and tough,
She could dare to kill anyone who she found a born bluff...! 

Love with Moon Knight? Wow! Echo, indeed, is great in power,
She could make or mar anyone within any short hour:
Who can I trust? Who can you trust? O, all games seem to end,
When mysteries revealed, by men and monsters, magic bent...!

Swat the Hate- Hate Bug

Hatred is simply a fractious bug on the brain,
which doesn't always wash away with the rain
 Neither the rain of love nor that of homily

But if you solemnly profess belief
in the God right above
let this even to atheists be a relief
that God only means love
for no religion preaches hatred to man or family

The wronged wishing to be placated
The tortured wishing to be avenged
Embittered humans provoked to evil hatred,
forgetting we are all but Adam's progeny, one kindred
Alas, hatred's a scenario that so costs humanity

Most of us are tired of hearing
of this cause and effect' circle of violence and repercussion
Why wilfully make yourself a target and fall in lasting perdition?

We don't wanna hear the hate crimes is a virus
that has no earthly cure
Since compassion is a vaccine to
prevent it for sure

Yet some might think this is easy to sing and easy to say
Gosh, but don't the world need 
more die-hard supporters of peace till judgement day?

Keep the peace and spread it.!!
Do your bit, come use your wit.
Swat and squash the hate bug from your mind and heart
Promote love and compassion even with words and art

Don't burn the bridges, 
rather mend the fences
Don't view each other
with hatred's lenses!

Premium Member Ember Girl


Born orphan, the torture of her stepmother and stepsisters
shaped the fairy tale Cinderella with fire, the ember girl,
who didn’t dream seeing the dormant love bloom,
but seethed within to take the retaliatory revenge.

On the night of the grand royal ball the cruel family
left bedecked with jewels and satin for the palace,
locking her in the attic in the company with rats.
She didn’t cry, performed a mystic trick, mother taught.

She came out glowing, dressed in a gorgeous golden gown,
wearing slippers made not of glass, but of sharp steel.
She strode elegantly like a flame in the wind to the ball
where she saw her stepsisters dancing with the prince.

Like a mesmerized moth the prince was drawn to her fire.
They danced passionately amidst the petrified spectators.
The entranced prince slowly burned in the embrace of ember,
while the stepsisters fumed in anger and envy.

When the clock struck twelve at the fated midnight hour,
the music stopped for a while in dead stillness.
The spell on the stunned prince was shattered
as with the steel slipper she stabbed him with a smile.

She ran away barefoot, disappeared like flying cinder,
getting the torment of stepmother and stepsisters avenged.


Premium Member The Pain That Traveled Around the World

We share in the sadness.
This unimaginable pain.
Children are not suppose to be taken away.
The school yard is silent
Where has the laughter gone?
The echo of angished spirits crying out to the Heaven
So much has been lost 
First dances
Kisses, hugs
Graduations, Proms
Weddings, grandchildren, future generations lost.
What Gifts will we never see?
Innocence has been snatched from our grasp.
Will we ever be the same?
It is not possible!
Their deaths can not be avenged.
No sense can be made of the senseless.
We cling to our children 
Try to comfort them
Will the victims have any comfort?
Will the World's tears console them?
Will their loss have been in vain?
Lock away the Guns
Change the way we think!
Our rights are secondary to the lives of our children.
Is not one life worth more than our right to bear Arms?
We can decide.
What choice will we make?

Premium Member Justice - Someday

For the precious little unborn souls - in the womb
But not given their chance to suck in the Breath of Life
To find their way through the dusty storms of experience
And to grow and blossom
Into the lovely beings they were meant to be

     .....Will there be Justice for them.....

For the families of people murdered - unjust destruction of life
Caused by those whose cruelty and selfishness knows no bounds
Waiting with empty hope for the peace they deserve
To see their loved ones avenged through a system
Set up to help those who caused so much hurt - the searing pain

     .....Where is the Justice for them.....

For the children caught up in the insanity of abuse
Their bodies and souls raped; their hearts starved for the love
And the affection that should be theirs - the wait
For the systems that are supposed to rescue them - and yet
They are returned to those who hurt them the most - and then they die

     .....Was there Justice for them.....

For the innumerable and wretched poor, needy and oppressed of the Earth
Who are always with us - deliberately kept that way on purpose
By those whose greed has bled the Planet dry
With their hoarding of wealth, riches and unbounded excesses
Cold compassion - forcing the poor to help the poor

Ignoring the request of our Creator - To Share

     .....And Justice For All?
                                       Not Yet!
                                                    SOMEDAY.....

Through Their Eyes - For Contest

Intended as a soliloquy

Could this man have been a killer?
In dark pursuit of ones demise.
Steadfast vengeance as my pillar
Consumed resolve, no compromise.

No greater gift, there is but life
Yet blood stained hands I seek to claim.
A placid lamb now armed with knife
Purloined harmony has enflamed.

Now here I tread upon the hunt
Within a stones throw of my prey
Eye for an eye he must confront
I close my own for strength this day.

Lost memories do flood my mind
Those better times before the grey.
Family joy long since declined
Emotions spilt in disarray.

He’s seen me now I’ve broken stealth
Instead of fear I see his mirth.
I can’t claim back what was my wealth
Yet I return him to the earth.

What creature have I just become?
Bound to bitterly seek revenge.
I sought rapture, instead I’m numb
My daughters death I have avenged.

*fictional however I sought a  
motive that would induce a 
parent to kill.

The Archer From Locksley

Wasn't Robin Hood born with noble blood,
what made him betray royalty?
He had a grudge against Prince John!
As a bodyguard, he was loyal 
to King Richard, but despised
the greedy and unfair Sheriff.

According to English folklore:
he was an outlaw, a skilled archer,
he became a legend in his own town. 
I doubt if any Englishman of the era,
would remember him as their own
if he hadn't been the selfless one,
taking everything from the filthy rich,
who daily engaged in a-eat-drink-binge,
he gave all back to the starving poor. 

Had he not taken their side and avenged,
the peasants would have felt anger
and fought against him and his King. 
Now, see Robin Hood in a different light:
lacking humor, grit and self-confidence,
not feeling compassion for the lowly
who cultivated farms and provided swine,
bread and wine for those royal tables.

He could have threatened them with vile words,
" Give me all your grains, vegetables and fruits;
your fowls, your chickens and pigs for my banquet! "
Load them on my wagon, don't hesitate and refuse:
my arrows don't miss targets, save your lives! "   
And with intimidation they would appease him.

But Mariam would rise from her grave protesting,
" My husband isn't a villain as you describe him,
he saved my king and my father and tried to save me
from Guy of Gisbournue! Hail to him who revenged 
many injustices in favor of the ones who trembled
at clanking swords! Hail to him who reunited England! "

Lies Fit Persons Who Are Dishonest

Lies fit person s who are dishonest,
let them not be your vain quest
or that reason for quick conquest;
envy is so evil and causes unrest!

Telling an untruth is blunt, 
it's hammering hardwood with tiny nails;
have you come face to face with liars
and been deceived by what they said?
Telling lies is an attribute to dishonesty,
to get full control over fools
and make them their grunts! 
Telling an untruth is blunt,
and needs an immediate apology
to the one you heartlessly misled!

Lies fit persons who are dishonest,
let them not be your vain quest
or that reason for quick conquest;
envy is so evil and causes unrest!

Lies come from dishonest mouths
smothering us with false sentiments
until they get what they want then leave
making us pay the consequences and cleave
to the false belief that being evil 
to others makes them feel well!

Lies fit persons who are dishonest,
let them not be your vain quest
or that reason for quick conquest;
envy is so evil and causes unrest!

Telling an untruth is blunt,
never deceive another gullible soul;
the wrong you do will be avenged
when they realize the goal
was to do harm and hurt
them for a grudge already settled!
