the ghost-ship that travels the seas,

Chasing a ghost not to be seen

Quiet the day is to be benign

At dawn the Imperial fleet does appear,
Surprise complete, ranging fire splashes...

Confronting betrayal midst guilt admission

Battling against conscience when holiness...

soft with reptilian fangs, hard with poison.
Her covetous husband lies upon the Nile’s reef.
She holds her abdomen in her arms - his son.

The End of the Flying Dutchman, Part Ii

...“Harpoons away,”this ensign said,
“Impact in a minute or less.”
The captain nodded, strange as this was,
they’d picked on the wrong ship to test.

Out on the Atlantic waters
across the waves the missiles screamed,
striking the Dutchman amidships,
blasting the...

Bleating of the Sheep



Black faces of wooly lost voices,

securely lull you to sleep?

“Good day!”  Such makes hearts jubilant
While expressed with face that’s vibrant
Wishing all to be triumphant
Along the Lord’s light --- radiant.
