Long Crucifying Poems

A whirl, a gust, and a thunderous boom commenced,
Heartened by the latter soreness of silent night,
Shackled through the chill blows above,
A tempest, a storm,
Threshing the world,
Shaking the Prison of Plot,

The waters of the Holy Spirit...

If John 3:16 is read as,
For God so loved Earth
that S/he gave up Her only begotten-beloved Child,

of soft tissues

running out of paper rolls
secretly
disgrace on humanity's cheeks silently rolls

there's a monument
on earth
to the unknown soldier

there's a monument
in the firmaments
to the unknown child 

a well known secret

a hood by night...

Retirement planning
may feel like civilian re-entry planning
as from-above ballistics continue heavy incoming
so persuasively my objective is not to win outside
but to get home safe again inside,
although I sadly know

If I became a paranoid schizophrenic
I would begin channeling Jesus of Nazareth
but, instead, dealing with my real world dysfunctional family,
with co-messianically depressing delusions
refracting illusions of gift-it-forward co-redemptive grandeur
leading pilgrim explorations into remembering embryonic hopes
of and...

you placed on a stone tablet
revealing yourself unto Moses

and learn that only through you
shall we be set free from captivity
which has...

-For Justin Bordner’s contest


I long worshiped heartbreak,
From afar, often, though through the lenses, ceaselessly…
I drew ribbons in the midnight sky with the silken trinkets of sorrow
Riding in the dark with the sound of our silent...

While stepping on grass and insects for wood to be sold...

Born from captivity of man
Seeking the worldly things
To satisfy this empty void
From lies taught from mankind 
That go against God's will
Blindly putting trust and hope 
Into ones who belong to the earth
Sadly ,the rulers create...

Scathing these miscoloured orbs of sight, with incised rocks carved beneath

Concretionaries jagged edges of contagiums....

Painted upon the predominating canvas of perceptions dank, pasteled times!

So what has changed, this mosaic of histories collective collage?

"The 'Israel of God' is finished!

Caught in the net we hid from them.
They wail like abandoned children,
Soon death...
