Long Justifiably Poems

I shall resolve to leave this
Place now...
And steadfastly search out,
Nestling between ridge and bluff
Amidst the folds of a foreign 
Land,
Several acres of unkempt ground
Fallow and rough;
Upon which stands...
Crumbled stone walls
With an exposed slate roof in
Some...

True love is unquestionable. 
What is true love?

Emotional attached, formed mentalities that are equally paired with an immaculate physical connection. 
Collected bi-gender, shared love—
She’s...

Whether arsonist at fault
or confluence of ripe conditions
triggering perfect firestorm,
the titan of fire beside himself with misery,
though no fault of his own
the raging bullish conflagration
a taste of inescapable...

around, is the lame and unconvincing excuse
that’s...

This small island civilization,
its empire was the largest creation,
with the widest trade connection,
there are mixed views of our colonization.

Many modern countries exist because of the British,
many justifiably say our actions were most brutish.

I often find myself pondering on
a rather uncomfortable fact,
that some of the big issues we all face
seem ever-present, all solutions lack.
We shout, we fight, we squabble over them,
and of course we all think that we’re...

Baseless incriminations heaped upon head of missus...
courtesy evil ferocious wraithlike grimace

Acrimonious scurrilous words
flew out the mouth

Under said paraffin oil and candor

Initially it demonized.

Intense pressure loomed.
A feeling I was doomed.
Festered a previous wound.

Forgiveness given in confession.

Wavering on deep depression
.
Harder for me to pardon my part,
Lord I will...

while Hawthorne peered into the soul

Here standing under...
