An Unholy Mess
Why do they hate so?
They expound forgiveness
But malign half of humanity
It is the gravest sin
That they do not wish to know

The human race cannot exist
Without a mixture of men and women
Men crave priority
While the woman...

"Pulmonary"



Revelations burn pulmonary
when all the bees no longer roar
life drowns in blue-green

Clairvoyants dance in time 
with prophets to flux events
Light folds Dark inside out 

Lizards Popes and Politicians
tread water in their black oceans
looking for an...

Consanguinity Begets Anomalies
Offspring between close family members
not biologically fit nor ablest
even if direct immediate relations
consider themselves best
buddies, emotionally intimate, and offload
heavy matters weighing down

on their respective figurative chest,
cuz lurking within brethren and cistern genes,
and/or chromosomes dwell deadliest
nastiest,...

Who Would Want Trump
Who Would Want Trump

What Trump said puts us into a stupor
Is party pooper and things are a blooper
With Hillary items are always tangible
His hair is orange and unmanageable.

Trump does end up putting us imperil
Would be...

Leeches In Life Waters
God made the earth with life waters 1
For ages, waters flowed in each spring
Each human had his own spring
Respected was the neighbor’s spring 
Up and down ran the waters

At the start life waters were pure...

Never Return
Never return
13/08/2018


Cumulonimbus gathering,
Clouding my judgment .
Rain drops pitter pattering
Acid down my cheek.
Resolve is growing weak.

One slip all it will take.
One deadly decision,
The last I will make.
Eternal mental damage
And ruinous thoughts banish.

Wanna score myself an ounce,
That’ll...

Our Tattooed Priest Eating Food

They say precious Priest had been tattooed;
After eating Holy Food was further reviewed;
Had been brash,
Applying ash;
On his beautiful body a crucifix it did include.

Priest had enjoyed eating food for thought;
Worshiping before...

Premium Member And So I Am
I am
the warmth in the comfort and contour
of sweet tones and gentle voices

I am
the color and design of exquisite joy
and the contrasting balance of dark and light

I am
the shelter of enduring silent spaces
where hollow ghosts...

Premium Member Days of Uncertainty
Lady Liberty's torch will slowly solemnly rise
During these sixty-plus days of uncertain sorrows
Before we, the people, can lift our moistened eyes
And think about brighter, more positive tomorrows.

Each day we fear what next dreaded act of...

Our Priest Told Us To
Our Priest Told Us To

Our priest told us to be a Trump hater;
That fat slob  who is a  slithery traitor,
God said forbid;
Trump get rid;
Fed to an Episcopalian enormous alligator.

Subtle, very subtle, yet the promise whispers in the trees.
The zinnias struggle with a push one last bud to sky unfurl,
While the neighbor's cat goes on the prowl for one more kill to squeeze.

Company Loves Misery
Company Loves Misery

If his company really loves misery
Then Trump does have a long history
Of others creating their downfall
Causing much misery for each and all.

A total loss is always a Trumpista
Loves bare bodies of a senorita

A Christmas Carol

Our minds and brains must be microscopic
Allowing things to happen that are catastrophic
Which cause so much sorrow, suffering and pain
While world and lives become filled with bloodstain. 

What is it that will stand...

Unless we finally stop branding

Inspiring, crescendo ... the ascension,
of myth and legend as Yaguara,
or "Death in one leap" the sleek frame, Jaguar
as if it's from another dimension.
Leopards bit spotty, but Jaguars take
a rosette form, tell-tale signs like water

Horn Had Taken a Hike to Find Father Farrell
Find Father Farrell and Terrell

when over barrel
while incredible church is imperil
find (call) Father Farrell (Terrell)

Parish which we cherish would scream
when scalded with steam so it did see
when either having been suspectable to sterile
