Long Ordination Poems

Humanity keeps looking forward, toward the coming of a birth,
and we’re all deemed as equals on our first day on this earth,
but as the years go quickly by our lives become our own;
we’re seen as...

The Conditions of Living

Stark organisations of my observations
Respond to beauty with pure elation 
Instead of chronic devastation 
Process the abject consternation 
From contrived over-saturation 
And acute mass manipulation 
That should be in legal confiscation
Truth found...

The Empirical Veneers of Decency and Acceptance

Matriculation

Back to home, Patrick did go,
	For in his heart he knew
		It was time to study with the church,
	That this he had to do.
			He told his parents when he got home
				That he must go to France
					And...

Why are we the human race
rather than another extinguishing species?
Why not the human species
and not the cockroach race?
Why is human nature
intended as somehow supremely natural
not within but faster than,

Mom, did you hear the news about patriarchy today?

Yes, dearest son!
Or no...
I'm not sure.
You mean the gender translation problem?

just an honest mistake

Imagination of my heart, be still
Is it not true that thoughts define our world?
And bring to light obscurities that thrill.

For in the mind, new ideas are unfurled.

do we look back at the sand mound 
already spent- 

to face this time, the future with

Let it be clear if to light or darkness you pay allegiance

Let's say we have capitulated 
yes, let's say we have succumbed
to their whimsical naivété and inane wisdom
Let us assume that it is all phoney
that it is a bogus hoax-filled folklore
We shall now pretend that we...

Can I take you back to 1906,
When San Francisco got a shock,
That stopped many a clock.

Charities did their best,
When put to the test,
Yet lack of co-ordination,
Threatened the whole operation.

Thankfully there were some wise heads around...

the masses beamed in admiration.
Flames of passion slid along the dance floor,

But the gingerbread people, old, fat and fickle,
pointed fingers asking for...

To collect a far one hundred miles drives, 
To keep stalling payment his life deprives,
Better he ended up in beehives…

I strongly believe that the wheels of fate
Are not controlled by some empty chance,
For if they were, I would not have found
Your life-turning love and gripping romance.

I believe there’s some unseen benign hand
That spins the...
