 Part 2
4th Delirium: Lost Souls
Sunken cities , pilgrims peering.. gawking,
squinting eyeballs, blazing sun
Janus facing, shepherds chasing.. stalking,
friends embrace before they shun
Tearooms steaming, tumult teeming.. talking,
lovers listen, poets pun
Broken stones unanchored, quaking.. rocking,
slipping, falling, one...

From where has it come?
A friend…
I have one, do I not?

Sitting here with a deep dark stare
Looking out into space in my underwear
Trying to get to my happy place 
Listening to my heart race
As I keep pace with all of God's grace
Many would make a...

Would you be frightened to see I also have a full cup

Young woman, listen to me! Attentively and keenly listen;
To the crucial message of this word, you surely, must hearken.

I see the bitterness polluting this world 
a multitude of evil hides then divides 
conquering with twisted visions of democracy 
one joke history repeating past horrors return 

Hurting innocent people tells another story 
bullies who...

Each poem’s a web that I hang (time-smoked adage
that swirls in the sky) and dream seasons rare eyes!
With no thought of entrapment or hope of ingesting,
rhyme longs more to bless you, verse whispers, “Hello.”

What a joy comes to one's heart
to see our spiritual children stepping out
having received God's truth at birth
as our heavenly father said from His fount

From that sane fount springs forth love
to love one another at...

Write your story


The hardest times leave echoes in my mind
And try as I might to push them aside,
The hardest times are a part of my life.
I cannot let them go without losing my light.

you used your charm
one daughter 
of satan
in slithering
sins of the flesh
eating into the heart

burning down castles
in black burning
sulphur dragon breath
lusts the demon of love

temptation comes
her craving darkness
a joker

chopping axe like

We are sullenly mourning
For security from the demoralizing night
I am despairingly probing
For mercy to carry us back to our divine flight

We are all wishing for infinite freedom
We are all seeking for an abundant kingdom

Pilgrims

Oh, so many times, feeling like a pilgrim,
standing alongside life’s road – it’s rim
watching, observing, being a part of the folly 
- that being in love, one would believe - jolly

And I don’t even know the reason

Coach signals in a play

So many of its people unaware

Dirty laundry
Aired into nightmares
All the fake news
Feeding us false...

Behind silver, she’s shining 
We may not be allowed to engage but we've done it, 
With pride we've made it,
Forcefully, we've bonded.
