The Vanity of Pleasure
Temptation tingles
I was confused by my desire
I believed the sensual was transcendent
Rising as I did on the waves of want
Seduced by skin
a wanton whisper
A Goddess wrapped in cellophane
Eyes that made me weak in my knees
Feather soft fingertips
Sweet supple lips
Screams of delight
Slipping into tunnels tight
A train on a fast track
Her beneath me on her back
She fed my erupting ego
Made me feel like a man
I was less somehow
but more than my awkward self
First time fast
Captivated by her cyclone power
An attraction distraction
One that could never fulfil
Like trying to extract happy from a pill
My vanity insanity
exercising of my free will
Her name not known
Me just a bit part in her play
The 17 year old kid
That pleasure whisked away.
Created for us with such velocity
A stage for life with such grandiosity
The stars, the planets, the moons God hurled
As all of creation he unfurled
And the grandest thing formed by God’s hand
His final creation was that of man
Vegetation, animals, and birds of the air
And then from man he formed woman so fair
He knew every aspect of his plan
We received intellect so we could understand
That he was our God and he’d always care
Wherever we went he’d always be there
He then gave man our free will and free choice
So each could have their own unique voice
Their own path to travel their own song to sing
Put in man's terms to do our own thing
So, lift up all voices and give to him praise
His son died for us then he did raise
All of his plans one day we will see
Our stairway to his presence for all eternity
Collaboration with Marcello Eans
The Saint...
Sometimes I question the choices & decisions I’ve made.
Is this another fad that will eventually fade?
Do I follow my own heart or rebel against man,
Exercise free will or is this in God’s plan?
My family’s disowned me because I’ve chosen to believe.
What crime have I committed for the punishment received?
I confess strongly without shame or guilt.
A participant in life, this is the hand I was dealt.
God exists. He’s evident in the air that I breathe.
He sits high, yet I feel closer to him down on my knees.
I star in my own movie, God’s featured a lot.
I have faith… I don’t need to see heat to be hot.
...And The Atheist
I, too, have been cast out by my own sisters and brother,
Just because I don’t believe the same as the others.
I have no faith in the world of spirituality.
It’s a simple matter of science to me.
I see people every day that believe in a god of some form.
I just don’t think that there’s only one way to conform.
I have to see and touch this way of life.
Just like you, I take care of my children and wife.
I work hard for the money I make and the food I provide.
I shouldn’t have to defend my beliefs to those outside.
In my life, many good things have happened, and some bad.
Just like you, I grieve for the loss of a loved one, I feel sad.
I, too, feel happiness, sorrow, anger, and pain; so you see…
When you get right down to it, we’re the same, you and me.
As the evening shadows grow longer
As light beams ebb slowly down the West
I sit by my desk with one eye tilted to the past
The other straining into future,
More conscious of change and time.
As a pilgrim in the long road of life,
I’m about to enter my journey’s end.
When death comes to claim my life,
I’ll bow in perfect acquiescence.
Now a thought strikes me hard,
That I should leave the door open,
For you to enter my chamber to rummage
And take possession of all my belongings.
I don’t have much to offer in cash or kind-
Just a few books of verse, which to me,
More precious than all my belongings,
Jotted down now and then
Dipping the pen in my life blood
Containing thoughts that whispered to me,
In the enormity of my solitude,
Where you’ll hear the faint beatings of my heart
And remember me when I am gone.
In perfect love and of free will
I leave them behind, for you to take and read
And remember me in my absence
One last thing I wish you to do;
Once death has claimed my life,
Bury me all in white,
With white blossoms covering my coffin
And this, you carve on the grave where I sleep;
“In this tomb, under the canopy of the sky
Lies someone, though a small fry
Had a heart as big as a mountain high
Who with songs of love, every heart did tie”
When after death, as I become a faded memory,
And lie in a cemetery, where silence sleeps,
Those who chance upon my grave, strangers though
For a while, will remember me,
As a humane soul who left a piece of her heart behind.
Once,
To the wise, I turned to and timidly,
I said:
“The divine plans unable I am to understand
Let alone them to criticize
But
I beseech you, wise one, to enlighten me on just
this point only:
Why, Free Will to men, God has forever granted
at the moment, HE knew very well beforehand, Man
Incapable of being his own world according to Lord’s
Logos to create?”
“A difficult question you have put to me, my wondering friend..,”
Retorted the wise with a smile,
“In reality, no one would ever be able to say with certainty, what
was God's reason,
but I think…” He continued to say “.. that God, having
given Man all that Man needed let him free, afterward, to do as
he thought right,
because God, out of respect for His creation, didn’t desire any
restrictions upon Man to impose
For
God knew from the very start that Man able would be, in time,
the divine law, under God’s guidance, alone fully to apply
in that way, my dear interlocutor, Man becomes a co-creator,
responsible for his doing,
thus
no one else is left there, Man to put on the blame
for
Man is the only one responsible for the world, himself,
has made!”

Do that and this
Opt for warm bliss
Fashion grand style
That grooms fond style
Loiter and see
Sensuous beauty
Now, here or far
See your bright stars
Joy and peace fill
Love now reveals
Glimpse a calm face
Love charms with grace
All in due time
Reason knows rhyme
Line after line
Words work out fine
In thrills and spills
Abide free will
Go beyond fact
For heart must act
Look to the way
That true love plays
Time follows time
Till death breaks rhyme
Until that day
Discern the way

“Animate with love, each moment
Enhancing thus, our bliss quotient”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Awareness untouched by love is barren
Throb of love is our innate aliveness
Canvas we paint our own colouration
Let the music resonate lovingness
Granted free will, thinking manifests life
Aiding alignment with love upon earth
Ego urges us to engage in strife
Whilst love blissful joy forever in mirth
Radiant emptiness bliss mist aglow
Abiding in this silence we are free
Feeling and colouring life as it flows
Each moment we renew our joy entrée
Be mindful, oh hermit, embrace the now
Follow the scent of love, sweet and mellow

The strong are always to blame for the powerless:
The rulers come up with the best of intent
It doesn’t take efforts to overpower us
Having police and stern judges at hand
Once deemed as the victims of a failed state
We turned up to convicts for waging a war
Though war is not ours to make, its too late
Our explanations won’t work anymore
The world is in full right to its imperfections
It uses quite often this right to impose
Further restrictions, in spite of objections
Why should it happen this way, no one knows
Proficient philos deny a free will
Well concealed apophatic god makes a call:
Some live in peace, some are destined to kill
Some are claimed guilty for nothing at all
Servants of power, warriors of cancelling
Criminalize me as much as you can
Ban all my cards, stop me from travelling
Save from my coming your prosperous land
According to the conservation of matter
I’m your anti-power, with all that implies
In your fictional wholeness I’m one of the shatters
Living one of those many fragmentary lives.
GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE
Molecules spec off dust
All this in God we trust
The angels both evil good
The creator ever stood
You created ocean breeze
The stars galaxies belong to thee
GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE
But man has been given choice
You spoke existence you made all this
Everything all thine
I must insist you've even kissed
Question is all creator
What of all everything, what about the evil
GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE
You allow, and you can end it
I just stay here offended
No one can judge you, STAND
Given even free choice to us simple man
Evil rains upon the lands
Grows in minds of adolescent
GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE
God of high on heaven gate
Why? did you even create
man this includes me
My free will instill I'm free
Why did I grow inside
No room in the womb
GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE
There's no room Omni present always true
Question again is why you create me
the soul spirit, encase in a body
given me still free will, yes I can even kill
Evil still only by choice is man no good
Why? would creator allow me this choice
GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE
Nitrogen, oxygen, freedom born choices known
I shall rely on your voice outside still my question is ...
Why? oh why? did you create me
Your power is you could have hid my disobedient, sigh!!
For all this and much more
I thank you Father God my Lord
Maker, Creator, GOD GIVER OF ALL THIS UNIVERSE AND MORE

A bleached and frozen moon
Loomed over a frigid November sky
And like a bad omen loosed from Pandora's box
It chilled my spirit inside.
I saw millions of people crying on their knees
Dead children limp within their arms
Those left alive screaming in agony
Who would cause this kind of harm.
Then a voice spoke to my spirit
Saying we ourselves caused all this pain
By abusing all our freedoms.
And turning away from God again.
We wanted things our own way
And sadly God had to let us go.
And we walked away from his protection
Now we are reaping what we sowed
God won't interfere with our free will
Originally this was a gift from him
But we abused it and lost his mercy
When we chose to live in sin.
Only one hope left for our dying race.
To fall upon our knees.
And ask him for his mercy.
To escape this visions agony
