Oak
"Oak"
The guardians
stood around and
shook their heads
great thoughts
quivering
from the ground, roots up,
as if to walk
confidently
with great armies
yet hesitation
was witnessed
in their waving gestures
perplexed
and touching
green crowns,
there they...

Poems About Adam, Eve, Lucifer, Eden and the Fall
Poems about Adam, Eve, Lucifer
Eden
by Michael R. Burch
Then earth was heaven too, a perfect garden.
Apples burgeoned and shone, unplucked on sagging boughs.
What, then, would the children eat?
Fruit indecently sweet,
redolent as incense, with a tempting aroma...

Halloween Poems Iv
the Horror

the Horror lurks inside our closets
the Horror hides beneath our beds
the Horror hisses ancient curses

Barefoot In the Bushfires of the Vanities

Conceits
"Conceits"
Such conceits
as veils between
our windowed worlds
torn torrential incomplete

strength beats weakness
carried soft and harsh
one direction or the other
strength and weakness
both carried soft and harsh

You are my muse
I wonder: would you make me your mistress
lost in a world of poetry under your wings
I’ll celebrate heaven's gift; more to me a tortured love
wretched wishes: life's greatest anguish
our heaven's in sight, you see...

The Instincts of Innocence
I reflect upon a word -
Innocence
To understand more fully what it means,
I think of what it conjures up for me -
childhood times -

Liatra
Pasha Acremodios grew greedy,
discontented with the domain he dominated,
so he turned covetous eyes toward Farabia,
sending his soldiers to seize this ripened plum
Spoiling for a fight and fighting for spoils,
his army swept across Farabia
like a bloody...

Ledger of Love: PART I
Ledger of Love
In the dim-lit chambers of the Victorian home,
Resides a wife, her heart a silent tome.
Once, love’s flame burned bright within her breast,
But now a thin whisp, a ghostly jest.
Her gaze averts from her...

Workshop Poem - Winds Forgive
Turning my back on typhoon skies,
a pestilent past, I pitch my mistakes
into a forgiving wind. Standing barefoot
at the edge of apologies,
coastal tides carry hope, tomorrows stir
on a mariner’s horizon. I search...

Blue Highway At the Cross Roads
"Blue Highway at the Cross Roads"
When the child
finds the imprints,
the child will place
its feet firmly
in the
Love
marked,
for the child alone
brick walls

Blue Highway
to be smashed
like teeth -
to be
broken,

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 10

Imagine my plight as dangerous as your spite,
Stomp your clawed feet on these prison floors,
Peace shall always follow the sink of your fangs…”

Awakenings
So wake again.
Not as the one you were,
But as the one who has always been.
Between the lines,
In the quiet,
Where the soldier sleeps,
And the world remembers what it has forgotten.
For here, in the space of your...

Stalingrad II
Let fortitude confront the raging beast
for wolfen corps from Hell have entered in.
They surge in packs, savagely unleashed,
to mutilate the innocence within.
Let ev’ry child and mother of its name
be fodder for this apathetic rage.
