Premium Member Make Things Right

Africa's soil is stained blood red;
by those buried beneath its sands.
And where Ebola spreads unchecked,
mercy is rationed by strange hands.

Poverty seals the children's fate;
should both their parents die of AIDS.
Death is their only guardian;
and the hope they might have felt fades.

Disease awaits in the shadows;
yet life carries on without pause.
And hunger hurts even in sleep,
where shriveled stomachs feel its claws.

Love's a sister, fetching water
for her thirsty younger brother.
For that traumatized little girl,
is now his father and mother.

We see such senseless suffering,
broadcast into our homes each night.
And yet, way too few of us care
enough to try: and make things right.

Friends of the Twins Metatron and Sandalphon

Three Popes died within six years
I wonder if what killed them 
were the sum of their fears
Could the cause be what they
covered or uncovered
The bible speaks of kings
who's wickedness God discovered
Historically their causes
were just and awed
But Heaven alone judges
the guilt of it's laws 
It took six years to stop
the naming of angels
And the most we don't know
because of their angle
So just for the record 
I'll untangle the tangle
Nine angels minus two
so scholars can tango

Michael the warrier
"Who is like God"
Gabriel the messenger
"Powerful Man of God" 
Raphael who sometimes stirred
a pool
"The Healing of God"
Uriel Who protected John the Baptist 
during Herod's wicked rule
"The Light or Fire of God"
Salaphiel
"The Prayers and Communication of God"
Jegudiel
"The Glory and Praise of God"
Barachiel leader of guardian angels
"The Benediction and Blessing of God"

Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Principalities
Powers, Archangels posses
Cherubim and Seraphim
are even Angels none the less

Premium Member NUTCRACKER'S VIGIL

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a wooden body with steady onyx eyes
fixed through the warm, festive glow of
glimmer-strung branches heavy with ornaments
crimson ribbons curling like frozen candy canes

stalwart he stands, gray musket upright
at rigid attention guarding wrapped promises~
stern eyes track the vintage train’s circuit
buzzing relentlessly round tree-rooted tracks.

devoted guardian rooted in pine needles
preserving whimsy’s last spark in tinsel-strewn shadows~
protector of wide-eyed wonder when snow silences streets
keeper of memory’s embers — cinnamon, carols, and cold cheeks.

no mouse king approaches, no cracked walnut threatens;
yet, still he stands watching over Christmases present and past~
a soldier of sentiment safeguarding the fragile, the glitter,
the longing, the ache in the throat when the last bulb dims.

Premium Member Local Living Matters

I hear things right side down
and bottom left side up
as I get older
so consider the source.

Anyway,
I hear Colchester Connecticut Democrats,
and some cross-registering Republicans,
want to establish
a multicultural health commission
concerned about military
and local police mercenaries
feeling discriminated against,
picked on,
unloved,
left out,
under-valued,
ignored,
neglected,
abused,
shot at.

T Rocko is concerned
such a vast investment
in multicultural respect,
solidarity of resonance,
integrity of long-term resiience
through commitment to public dialogue
rather than contentious debate,
could only be justified
with quantitative data

Adding up how much
anti-militarism
and anti-police brutality prejudice
exists
and costs 
in Colchester.

In this political
and economic moment
of social cooperative distancing,
dissociation,
scape-goating,
rabid polarization,
toxic partisanship

We need a baseline,
says he,
of mutual disregard,
to measure regenerative progress
and/or degenerative retrenchment
from community integral investments
in health remediation,
inclusive wealth
for future cooperative governing generations.

"Silence to me
says it exists"
retorts our First SelectWoman

Rudko,
self-appointed sole guardian
of our public health investment purse,
responds,

Supporters of Armed Lives Matter Most
are "making a generalization...
not based on facts"
that silence means discontent,
speaks echo-chamberly
of feeling an unhealthy
lack of mutually fulfilling safety

Too risky
for speaking up transparently
to listen vulnerably
to all cooperative opportunity "Other"
and "Alien"
and "Immigrant"

And silently listening especially 
for Not Straight Male Dominant
voices,
whispered narratives
about aggressive predation stories
of relentless win/lose debate
rather than cooperative win/win dialogue
with pro-social attachment,
multiculturally nonsupremacist intelligence.

FATHER MOSES

When I first saw you,
a Jesuit in rags,
living among traders,
sleeping where truth sleeps.

At night I came.
A boy seeking light.
You spoke softly,
and the world unfolded.

You taught me
how power moves.
How words defend better than fists.
How humility crowns leadership.

You took me to the mountains of the market
and said:
“The greatest secret society
is the universe itself.”

In night schools.
In borrowed libraries.
You opened philosophy,
astrology,
palms,
soil,
and stars.

You showed me Rome in spirit,
the Vatican in mind,
the ivory towers
through discipline and silence.

You said you would die
a Catholic priest.
And you did.

When they told me you were gone,
my body broke.
But my soul knew—
souls do not separate.

You were teacher.
Guardian.
Voice of the unseen.

Rest now,
Saint Moses.
History will forget many kings.
But wisdom remembers its fathers.


My Beloved Afterlife

Down I walk the reclusive path, darkness trailing around me
When I turn around I'm haunted still by the demons of my past
So heavy the chains that bind me down, to what I can no longer see
Only in nightmares am I forced to relive these tragedies at last

A slave to the monsters under my bed, that possess me in my sleep
Spirits that swirl in calamity, afraid of the things I know
I pretend I'm fine, truly okay, those aren't tears when I weep
In the icy shell I call my heart is where the sickness grows

When daggers blade seals my fate and I descend into the shadows
My only wish beyond is this, that I fade into oblivion
No golden gates, no rosy pearls, no tall grass in the meadows
Don't send me to an afterlife, just leave me with no guardian

For even the lives of angels and demons are still slaves to their masters
I beg on my knees to be set free of everything that strangles me
No life of serving a special deities spending every day to commit to flatter
Just cut my sails at let me float free into the emptiness of the unending sea

Premium Member Woman, Woman, Muse Of Saint-Valentine

You, gorgeous Muse, with velvety skin
The sugary sap of my poetic pen
And the sole labyrinth of my soul
You inspire me and I adore you.

You are my perennial spring smile
The garden of my ethereal flowers
The leitmotif of my dreams in exile
And the fictional oasis of the fall showers.

You are the guardian angel who's never absent
And the devoted hope with multifarious scent
You never say no, no. Oh! Eternal is your beauty.

Woman, Woman, Muse of Saint-Valentine
Your sweet perfume seduces my whole being
And your maternal voice rocks me daily like a baby.

Premium Member Novel Conclusion

Once and forever upon infinite times it seemed the
                        maze of shattered fragments tattered mosaic and
broken shards and void of nowhere in the shredded
                       tapestry and guillotine of darkness had descended
into an arid garden shrivelled mind and suffocating 
                     clouds in bouts of shrouds of rigor mortis wriggling
from a long gone heaven into a self-imposed garrote
                    and suicidal tempest’s guardian hanging by a thread 

Midnight was hell in plantations of Guernica as the
                        dark side of orbital shadows festered popsicles of
ragged icy water derelict vessels towards demise

Angel is too small a word for the spoon descending
                 into my heart cuddling the spikes and spices sprinkled
scoops of hoops amazing graces when passion and 
                      extinct desire kindled kinder spirits and inflamed a 
perished forlorn moon from craters of lonely desolation

Synchronicity enveloped the mutual satellites of love and
                  sensual perfume fragrant consummating dreams and
screams of joy’s exuberance rescued from pre-mortal final
            fasciculation the peaceful miracle of vibrant life and living
