Theater of Utter Charm Part 5
she left me defenseless again
for reasons that cannot be spoken
but that can be further diagrammed
worthy of forensic dissection
deep into the cauliflower folds
branching like rivers of lightning
all at once one at a time
lighting up the display...

Second Fall From Grace
A priest was strolling in a glorious
Garden next to a church cemetery.
Deep into daily prayers his serious
Reflection had ceased funereally.
From behind a blackberry bush a man
In agonizing pain pled for his help.
Bloodied, near death he...

The Fourth of July
I was asked, are you going to raise your flag on the fourth of July?

In the Beginning Was the Poetry
Oh! The poetry of "The power and Glory"!
I recall chant and call of that Gospel Story,
In storefront churches, all across the land.
Where heat was stirred, but not dispelled
by the waving of little cardboard fans.
As towering...

Circumstancially Broken
You're a pain that hurts in the right places
You stabbed my heart and killed me right before the tongue hit the septum of my heart
Emotionally battered
I have been victimized by my circumstances 

Tying my heart...

3 Dimensions
In company, 
Amidst friends cum acquaintances,
Conversations of barrenness,
Chattering lips uttering programmed responses,
Smiling faces concealing bitter hearts, 
Prejudiced minds feigning solidarity,
Rancour concealed in laughter,
Grudges obscured by affability,
Sprained facial muscles,
From prolonged smiles of pretence,
Ensconced in mistrust,
I dialogue...

Words in Haste
Written: by Tom Wright
1/16/2013

Sometimes in life, I’ve received some flack,
For expressing thoughts that I didn’t weigh;
Words once orated that I couldn’t retract,
I could stand by them or my tenants betray.

I’ve never been known...

The Children
By: Tom Wright
5/31/03

How oft are the children sacrificed
for an unjust cause or belief.
From hunger, with swollen bellies,
they beg for morsels of relief.

Accounted as hostages to grating words
orated by another in haste.
While clay mores relegate...

I try to be cognizant of the words I speak,
Those words once expressed I cannot tweak.

I'm found using words that one time spent,
Brought distress to another and not my intent.

Precipitant words bent on inflicting pain,
From...

Love 
Written: by Tom Wright
6/17/2018

One’s love isn’t expressed,
By mere words we say.
But it’s in our actions,
Occurring within each day;

Love isn’t just a word,
To be interjected with ease.
Then once it’s orated,
To just do as we please.

We...
