I need some spiritual happiness

God Fearing
As of June 24th 2018
There’s been 315 days since my Baptism by Water.
There’s been 13,547 sunrises in my life to this day
But only 592 of those days in which I have learned to pray
And if...

Crap Mission
CRAP MISSION :

Well, all the signs I saw,
Were stroke for us all.
Expressing ourselves in accord,
It's simple for me coming forth.
Their fallacies knocking my door;
Screaming my name based on plots.
And I'm giving them no response,
Though I've...

Spectrums, Tints and Shades

Like the painter’s palette awash with hues and tones – white to tint and black to shade, greys scattered in between: 

What risks we run:
Shaving a little too close that we get...

It Started Off As Fun
It all started as fun like it usually does
Back when she was a great girl who'd always been beautifully loved
Way back before she'd been brutally touched 
She goes out weekly and has a few drink...

Wipe the Memory
I’m an addict
In recovery 
And I’m kind of glad of it
I don’t want to be
Just another G
Out promoting weed
While I’m planting the idea 
Like a G-13 seed

Read between the lines
And you’ll find I’m blinded
Beating up...

How dare you condemn my name to such foul involvement?

Do you know how much that set my insides ablaze with rage? 
Who was there for you since day one? 
Who did you always run...

About the 1500's
Most people got married in June because
They took their yearly bath in May
Body odor was the reason
Of the flowers in a bouquet

A big tub of hot water was used
For a bath, so that's not complex...

Mad and the Roots
Gripped by the throat with tension 
Mad aggression pumping thru my veins 
Changing my complexion 
Pressing thru the world of small selections
Fencing off the other feelings of oppression 
And while I'm resting 
I don't wanna...

Prayer of a Poet
Immortal and undecaying these poems, I know, shall die one day; 
one day all fame and immortality shall fall flat among the debris. 
The Himalayas, the Twin Tower and the Great Wall of China

Spare the Noose - Let One Live
Spare the noose - let one live!

Just moments and life's gone,
for the lives one hack
and for it never to come back!
Isn't justice flawed with 'glee' to adorn?

The noose has a strong say
and so do the...

Shot To Poppa Squat
Suicide is a topic way too serious for jokes. 
Too awkward for many funny bone pokes. 
But Patch Addams was played on this tone. 
By a fighter of demons of others and his own.

Death

Words rip through the night sky
They conspire to tear a hole through reality
A reality created in your eyes

Taped tightly to your mouth is a bill of lies
That you have yet to unroll
And it's constricting your...

'what In Whom,' Is Everything
To hear them is what's easy
But to understand them
I wouldn't make much of them

I don't know how to feel them
Given only the numbness
Or how to say them
Given only the discomfort
And tightness amongst the neck
Yet I'm...

Even when you fall flat in the middle of the story
The last is always the dream we all fight to attain
I won't be your dream love

A Poets Dilemma
I must confess, my poem appears a mess!
Wonder if I’ve lost my touch?
Though it seemed all right, when I began to write,
Did I edit a smidgen too much?
Having honed my rhymes, so many times,
Results are...

Sometimes it's best to be left all alone. 
Sometimes I guess I just need to be shown 
how to look in the mirror and not have to see 
a reflection of self pity staring back...

Our pristine, prissy, upscale dining room was almost never used.
And now it can’t be used for eating, for it is slightly junked and abused.
Dining room table is so long, it started to almost immediately collect....

Sunday has circled here:
Our nation bids farewell
To a great soul endeared
With devotion that tells.


Body lying in state:
Half a million sad hearts
Came to see and relate
Solemn "Goodbyes" to part.


Solemn the vigil guards,
Bowed in profound salute;
Keep company...

The world keeps spinning on,

A Tormented Soul
What’s this heavy weight? If I could see it, 
I would launch it from my chest.
Do I not deserve a reason for cradling such a thing?
Do my shallow breaths not catch your attention?
When my arms...

Wind cuts to my feelings of indifference
for my impaired emotionless state
air freezing my facial expression 
glad of the change in environment
but can not seem to express it
living on my own like a hermit

Premium Member Poem For a Sleeping Child
There’s a wish to wander in your cool innocence
and cruise the thoughttides of no
responsibility—so easily you wipe your
shoeless feet on the ever waiting door
mat of socialization. How can I help you keep your 
tender "souls"...
