Wems Henry Temmy Psalm 27


Hold my head up to the top
Keep polishing my flimsy flop 

Hold my mind tight to think straight
That with my brain, both in league, inflate 

Hold my thoughts to meet meanings
On the road out of the tunnel's screenings 

Hold my heart to sink deep inside Yours
And stop wandering in canals' cures 

Hold my chest at peace with Thy paints
Even if I am not one of those saints 

Hold my hand; a tool to ink clues 
That can save dying souls of blues 

Hold my ears hostage to insure my heart
Which build up every muse into an art

Hold my nose to perceive the ugly
To rub off dirt nature embraces snugly 

Hold my eyes to see how trouble unfolds
But never possibly know how it moulds

Hold my mouth to shout hallelujah
How I am set free of Delilah's hysteria

Hold my tongue to the deep end of judgement
With You only can I make proper adjustment

Hold my oesophagus to silent movement
That draws nearer pantry's abandonment

Hold my stomach to the manna 
Of abundance on my Savannah

 Hold my office to good use 
To avoiding coincidental abuse

Hold my legs to walk in glory
Growing greatness, not story

Hold my nails to keep steadfastness steadily 
In the face of peace like war, beeping  readily

Hold my back to get Thee, Thy backing
Through grace, in cracking poster(s) tracking

Hold my all and it will be noticeably sure
In You alone, oh Lord lies every echt cure!

Hold my faults onto the everlasting cross
No one else is worthy to take Thy place, Boss

Reprobate Fictional Schnorrer

Reprobate fictional schnorrer...

Who never did a lick of work 
gifted lifelong entitlement,
yet possessed webbed wide world reputation
actually humble contemplative earthling
jump/kick started cosmic consciousness
as modest (née supreme)
unrivaled spiritual leader
with natural born talent
to resolve conflicts
without uttering a word,

he merely presented unspoken charisma,
when his bonafide dogma stirred
madding crowd awash
with conservative and liberal
unflagging political stripes
plus token long haired pencil necked nerd
anarchistic disruption (holy cow) seldom heard
except during amber alert 
contrary to violence prone
human nature, how 
out of simian character and absurd.

Honest to goodness effort witnessed
courtesy eyes of big brother,
which affected shout and twist
in life and hard times rendered tragic
of one odd longfellow
surname of Mister Quist,
who once upon a time esteemed
as hotshot dejure at NIST
(National Institute of Standards
and Technology at U.S.
Department of Commerce.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework
helps businesses of all sizes
better understand, manage,
and reduce their cybersecurity risk
and protect their networks and data.

The voluntary Framework kissed
(figurative kosher blessing
fingers to mouth non verbal communication
to hush quiet riot
unrecognizable protagonist aforementioned -
convincingly disguised Rabbi)
despite blatant underlying anti semitism,
which unpleasant vulgar sound hissed
out the indecorous maw
of zealous white supremacist(s)
across the room of ornate Synagogue,
whereby security details
quickly silenced and ushered
unnamed, unhinged, uncivil...
evil incarnate odious louts,
who did unfortunately own right to exist.

Any resemblance between said divine mortal
(an avuncular good fella,
a handy dandy bare knuckle pacifist,
albeit harmless individual)
and living persons purely coincidental.

Premium Member Historic Traces

Embracing my retiring place
includes not only green and granite geographic dimensions
in space
But also extending back experienced roots
of 264 seasons past
having co-evolved this matriarchal wombing 2020 present

As if co-gravitation of historic time
with current place
were a creative pre-visioned design of space
dipolar co-arising deja-vu choice
to embrace, with coincidental love revivals,
or disgrace, with even more bipolar fear-mongering,

And usually something merely mortal
yet immortally cooperative
in-between what has been competitive Win/Lose explained
and what could become WinWin integrity
of exclaiming dance and song

Embracing my ego place,
How could that go wrong?
While not ignoring ecosystemic health
of this historic evolving space,
sacred integrity of revolving incarnations,
romantic race
toward multiculturing grace,

Withour fear's least merely secular

Premium Member My Country Song

I think I'll write a country song
about the weasel that 'done me wrong'
We'd have been married thirty years today
if he hadn't had a penchant to stray.

I got the pickup truck, so we'll leave that part out
but there's lots of other things I can whine about.
I can hit a few notes on this guitar of mine,
now I need to come up with some catchy line.

Country songs need to have a refrain,
something so catchy it'll stick in your brain.
They're all about liars and cheaters and such
and cheapskate dates who want to go dutch.

I'll make a fortune when my song's a hit.
My inspiration was my ex the ....jerk?
Yes, I think I'll write me a country song
about the weasel that 'done me wrong'.

I'll put in a verse about socks on the floor,
then casually mention his red-headed .... friend?
Maybe I'll say that he broke my heart
I'm still not quite sure where to start.

Most of what I write may even be true.
I could mention his cologne smells like... aqua velva?
Yes, I'm sure I can write one if I try.
It'll hit the charts and from there just fly.

I know I can write a country song.
Anyone can when they've lived this long.
We all have something twangy and sad,
something good in our past that turned out bad.

Premium Member Coincidental Faith

There is only co-arising integrity,
integrity unfolds ubiquitously,
omnipresently, health potently
space and time's incarnating potential
inviting
resolving
regenerating multisystemic polyculturing networks
polypathic information webs
embodied network organic
strings of enculturing forming function
waving binomial binary bionic frequencies
toward more interdependent contentment,
less empty-evaporating contentiousness.

Form unfolds content-ment,
well-formed families and communities
avoid dysfunctional toxic content
by grasping its straining stressful mentoring voice
about not only which dispassions to avoid
but also why
and where to reset our pilgrimage rudder's tipping point,
sweet spot Trim Tab,
to comprehend when integrity-aversion overcompensates,
when avoiding karma's grasp
would trend toward our mutually neglectful dis-grace.

Tomorrow,
always tomorrow,
we might avoid competitive gasping
by grasping cooperative aversions to loss and dissonance.


Marauders On a Night Raid

(alternately titled ringleader Harris hooligan,
Hence, any resemblance 
     between characters port
rayed, and living persons 
     purely coincidental.)

Claim to fame creating
     an overnight sensational
     boom town explained
     by lodestone of zinc
while the town
     crier fast asleep
     (until next to last 21st sentry
     caught up on

     much needed
     protracted wink),
his dreams informed
     him of a getaway,
     whereat just
     with mental power to think,
could render forth pour
     favor riches aplenty

     appearing once 
     one did awake
     meanwhile oblivious 
     to encroaching hoodlums,
     whom didst blithely slink,
(analogous to a
     waltzing skater on a smooth
     as glass ice rink,

whereat razor sharp blades
     noiselessly sliced cold air
     with an imaginary plink),
thus while one man guard
     zonked out, sans steeped
     in a glistening escapade
     cuddling, nestling, and snuggling
     with his pet mink

Hun dread scandalous vandals
     (Atilla among them)
     word less lee
     located weakest linkedin chink
coalescing, comprising,
     and constituting,
     an otherwise excel lent access
     duff fence sieve link

     iron wrought chained
     formerly mistakenly invincible
     against a Trojan
     Horse, now even
     vulnerable to a dolled up,
     decked out disguised rat fink,
     slithering snake like afore
     the zoned out patrol

     did awaken and blink
only after invasion of swiftly
     styled, harried tailored,
     foo fighting beastie boys
ex post facto, when steely

     dan sing motley crue
     made discernible noise
far to late for the
     "FAKE" Don to trumpet
successful "Stormy Daniels"
     counter attacking ploys.

Poetic Alchemy

It is indeed non coincidental, the Universe is Mental
Leased ideas, hopes and dreams
Housed a priceless High rise rental
Landlord of various residency sardine packed Ideas and hopes born from dreams 
Leaving behind the rowdy neighborhood, overcrowded situation
For a change,  a self prescribed Poetic Alchemy Vacation 
Retreat away from the noisy fray
 Under a Pine cone tree for my short stay
Pen and Paper Therapy.

Cloudy visions with half baked decisions
Careless youth, Carefree
Avoiding limits past the sky
Sabotage to self when in illusions rely
How can one conceive a manifestation not perceived?
How can one want more without Gratitude for what have been already received?
A single flame of a candle can brighten the path
 to words scribed on paper, a dying art
Battles with Self, who is the enemy ?
Take a look at yourself in the mirror and you will see
Both Angel and Demon need to be fed
Which will you feed the most
Host of light or harbinger of doom and dread
Within chaotic turmoil order is a balanced a scale
Necessary momentum like winds to a sail
Creativity born of Pain is the Great  work
Intercourse with pen and paper therapy
Watering a planted seed
Soothing balm to crowded mind
Where thoughts manifest the actual deed
The art of Poetic Alchemy.

Flagger- PS

My partner called out cars she sent
as we stood at opposite ends
of the work zone, and when
hers had passed, I called out mine
sending them along a narrow passage.

We found a common language
to communicate, and we made
small talk when things were slow.

The construction crew struggled
to settle each fresh coat of asphalt
over a moist bed of clay
of a two-lane in northeast Nebraska
arcing and curving over hills and valleys
between two unincorporated areas.

Black angus cows grazed
on a grassy hill, coincidental beauty found
in another time and place,
and a bull bellowed
to declare the spread his own.

After work my partner and I stood
outside our rooms at the hotel.
She talked about her husband
and I talked about a librarian
who read my poems.

While we spoke about our
lives back home, a light in the lot
shone a distant star.

An If

It all begins... for the end
Have you a need to fulfill?
The mind and body needs consent
If you know... nothing is new

Can you try... we always try
Yet...when are we ever good enough?
We knew the truth but we always lie
Is there a laughable time to outlast?

Do you know something I don't?
Does it mean we are special?
Will you say something I won't?
A happenstance... Is it coincidental?

To please someone today?
What does it mean for me tomorrow?
An ever changing relay
Do we expect for what follows?

We strive yet we deny
Beyond our endless versions of truth
One's truth to yet still lie
If only we believe to only believe we all lose

Woodland Mysteries

There you go,
back, far back into the woods once more.
I wish you knew the names of all these tree.
They are distant aunts, and old soldiers,
warriors of coincidental conflicts.
Blood soaked relations of relative ghosts
seen now only as points of departure
where tombs have been riven by lightning
or whole forests burnt to the ground
to a more fertile ash.

Names unknown but named in a book
rivers and reeds write 
for later roots to unravel.

Fathers as old as the first horse.
Mothers who breast fed the slow dreams
of a humankind destined to plant her flag
upon a million fields of creation.
Yet more await, are nursed as new seeds
that glimmer in a shinning nebular.

Now I watch one lone child 
pass through gorse, thickets, and briar, 
travelling through its own forest
to be born into a family
that has yet to be named or branched.

Life lives and returns to find out why
again and again.
Reincarnated crucifixions
dot a new landscape each era,
vacations in Ohio last until
death stamps a later passport.
Sweat and blood in Thailand,
transforms into poetry.
A blind man digging his way through a city
mining for a treasure he was born with.

Back we will come
arriving from anywhere
and anyone.
Each deliverance a blessing
we had to uncover and acknowledge
as our own woodland mystery.
A place between sacred mountains and molehills
where the trees have yet to be labeled
or cutdown, and green growing offspring
with their little axes
getting duller and heavier each year
until the woods and all disappear
to follow the night-train
to where they will arrive at, 
whatever platform we have
cobbled together or erected with prescient hands.

Then we claim our Kingdoms,
our many mansions, the many branches of us all.
As the cycle turn and spiral
again to return carrying a new child 
as a gift of the light.
