Starting with toss of a coin; ends in pulling bails off
Just as cricket life is simply...

The Decline of America
You see it everywhere
The unmistakable signs

That the decline of America 
Is in full swing

From dealing with the US 

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

In solitary silence i commune with my own heart,
And diligently consider its questions and awnsers,

Give graciously, wave 'bye to greed

She comes to bat with the score tied three to three.
Staring out at the pitcher,
she goes into her stance, 
just hoping the ball will come over the sweet part of the plate.
Into her motion, the...

My Countless Wishes -Part 2-
I wish
To demolish my sorrow…
I wish
To forget the despair and gleefully grow…
To forgive and seek the challenges of tomorrow…
My downfalls and my failures…

To disappear
I wish
I had no fear…
For God’s near…
I wish
I could be a...

A pair of star cross'd lovers take their life,
Whose misadventur'd piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parents' strife."

Dreaming 'Land of the Irish Isles' Part 1
It's a brilliant and starry night,
The moon overthrows it's light,
As shadows dance across the warm wet earth,
Like fairies illuminating the murky forests,
With their otherworldly glow,
Playing hide-and-seek,
Beneath the toadstools,
And the hollows of sleeping flowers,
It is quite...

Money
Mere means of being master of all labor, this power
Overthrows all virtue, and write the metered history
Nations spin web in web, and now it is the cocoon hour
Emerge the spider on spindly legs from calyx...

Pentecost (As Simon Peter)
Parler en d’autre langues im Gott der Geiste 
Ecstatically, I will elaborate.
Not knowing Joel’s visions you suppose
That we are drunk this morn.  Don’t be enticed.

The Transition of Palettes
Touch the soaring leaves of autumnal gold,
What canvas can capture such grains untold?
As the King Midas touch runs through their veins,
A November palette fusion now reigns

See the Old Oak standing erect and tall?
Its broad leaves...

His palms wide enough 
To contain all the elements of the earth
Both great and small
Seated on His heavenly throne
His royal legs resting on the earth
He rules in the...

Running Option
The salty sweat dripping into my dry mouth
My heart's beat in my ears
Head throbbing to the same beat

My whole body is running
Sprinting away from my world

I Mind
I do not think my mind 
Is like he used to be;
He used to chat with me;
Contradict and chide me;
Play cunning wit, puzzle, 
Chuckle with, amuse me.
But now he's darker;
He hides things from me;
No longer...
