The Decline of America
You see it everywhere
The unmistakable signs

That the decline of America 
Is in full swing

As the world leaders turn away
From dealing with the US 

And we have gone past the tipping point
There is nowhere left to...

True Democracy In Action Slam
When the definition of Democracy

Comes negated at both the cost
and price of freedom of speech

And being told what we can and
can not say or do

That to me then becomes an 
overreach and abuse of power

Unless...

To Wear a Mask Or Not Is the Question Part Two
but this government MANDATE 
from Harris County is unnecessary, 
unconstitutional, and unAmerican. 

It’s an unprecedented overreach 
which looks more like a communist dictatorship 
than a free Republic. 

And here in Texas
We believe
That people have to...

Poetry Defined

I’m a poet; you’re poets, and Poetry’s “Christ,
As God’s Word” meets the cross, where Love’s Truth, ‘Grace’ sufficed,
To absolve men from sin! More proof Satan can’t win!
All flesh dies (in God's Wisdom?) Man’s poetry’s...

Unknown Terrain
Brined voids surround my already bounded vision, throwing me headlong into confusion and disarray. 

Hesitation in what may be the next correct course is what has landed me, and with much despair, in this current...

Premium Member Look At It This Simple Way
Look at it this simple way,
it's time you thought freely;
if it were for sure,I would
tell each and all secrets...

Premium Member Resurrection

Religion is about ideology; Resurrection is about The Christ.

Empty words; empty ideas; empty religions; Empty tombs.

Satan was totally clueless about the resurrection.

Unity with the Father was often mentioned by Jesus.

Reckless actions and self-assurance doomed Satan.

Taking Down a Bookshelf
The authors
blink only when looked at,
they recall for you
a story, perhaps a tale half-read.

One book lifted,
pages fly between thoughts,
a few scrapes of knowledge 
peck and preen again.
Phrases return
demanding still to be displayed
though rarely used.

There are...

To Wait
You’re given an appointment – 
You check the time and date;
And then when you arrive, you find
You always have to wait.

But why? is what I wonder,
For experience should teach
Those who schedule appointments 
When they start...

Gone til Winter to be a winner forward spring,
Bent the bar that...

Premium Member An Angry Woman
An angry woman shouted
out slogans her group touted
against the COVID vaccine, 
face masks, and basic hygiene.

She claimed her right of free speech,
vaccines were an overreach
and not about risk or health
but about power and wealth.

Till democracy's...

Southern Cross
The name alone can conjure better times, 
a happiness that's always out of reach, 
evocative of palm fronds on the beach, 
exotic nights in far-off summer climes, 
and things that are impossibly sublime. 
But if...

Premium Member JAN-itorial overreach
So, let us write of finer things
Avoid forever bee-less stings
Mock the errant bird that sings
Of low tide and the stink it brings

Our sands will e’er be brilliant white
With bobbing sails just out of sight
Moonlight shining...

Up and At It
When you feel so tired that you can't rest
And so hungry that you can't eat

When weariness caresses your soul like a lover
And your very bones ache with wear 

When pains are your closest pals
And sorrows...

Premium Member The Meatball
I'm a meatball in a sub,
With three others just like me,
We are warmed by tomato sauce,
And a blanket made of cheese.

The roll is our surrounding house,
Handled by a man,
Shivering at a football stadium,
While sitting in...
