Premium Member Lamb To The Slaughter

Wind sings praise, and the wings who soar
silent adoration – soft as the light
climbing the skies, breathless and alive
rising in murmurings who bless the night
mounting impressions of the sea’s gentle tides,
flowing with worship, admiring the...

His Perfect Love Part 2
His Life, for thirty pieces of silver was sold
And, with a kiss, was callously betrayed,
Just as the Scriptures accurately foretold,
Each prophetic word was obeyed.
Like a Lamb to the slaughter he was led;
The soldiers punched him...

Your breath giveth life
Before honor is humility 
For your word is pure ,without...

The Cautious Fox Eats the Sheep, The End
Stupid flowers,
Eaten by a stupid sheep.
It’s all so ignorant,
My efforts wasted away. 

Blind little lamb,
Eating flowers so absentmindedly,
Flowers like the ones I found on the hill,
Where we would watch clouds pass by.

And the clouds would...

 vociferating out endlessly,
 with each thumping heartstroke,
 intermitted by eerie visions,
 im haunted by fate
 woven by the yarns of uncertainty,
 coiled from my past nd present.......

promised relief from pain, sorrow and dread.
With such treasure offered truth becomes blind
dark powered beauty that corrupts the mind.

Love's Lonely Quest

Love’s Lonely Quest

Are we programmed from Above
To search for everlasting Love?

Or is it from some other place
To seek the Other’s lovely face?

Is it some cruel joke,
That those that love us might not stoke

Our hearts with...

Yet, I came from dry ground.
Though in sight there was death
There was life in my sound!
There is no beauty in me

As those...

Lamb To the Slaughter
It’s like a lamb to the slaughter
The thing is she KNEW
KNEW that beneath the alluring smile
And enigmatic eyes
Lay
A monster.
A demon.
Inhuman cold skin cluing in
The lamb
Her shepherd leads you to Hell.
But she’s drawn in 
By seductive...

I fear for the future of many young and innocent.
The unfortunate ones whose childhood was spent
without responsible parents who couldn't care less.
Abandoned or runaways, alone and in dire distress
of what to do. To survive they...

Forgive us Father

He was despised and rejected by men,
 A man of love, forgiveness and understanding,
 As the man that men hide their faces and contempt,
 As men esteemed Him not.

Star of David
he stood 
among the swasticka's 


a star 
in the center of chaos


and still
he couldn't comprehend


with ticket in hand 
for a train 
that was heavily laden 
with lost hope 


he was bound and gagged 
by religion...

An Absolutely Perfect Presence
I see,
in she strides,
the white-clad love of my life
sweet lover not my wife,
the aether air
too thick to breathe
as always, eternal,
she, almost maternal

her final word
a judgment
of her will.
Why stay?  Be still?

To clarify peculiarities, solely,
she comes,

I’m stuck in this prison

the time of no caring

They say it gets...

Lamb to the slaughter 

I didn't ask for this life;
I was created in it;
The color of my skin;
It doesn't matter;

Created by Him, with my mother and dad;
Bullied and mistaken;
Mistreated politicized and misshapen like...

Cool Passion
{He}

The sky drapes its dress

Quiescently, you tilt your head and pout

walked one shady path 
where the demon creeps 
written from the blood of man
