Taking over my tasks  

Saying ‘I am not wearing any deceptive masks’ ...

In the garden, The Christ did pray
For strength ardent to bear pain's stay.

To ask to be with fond appeal.

His close aides lie in heavy sleep;
The Christ now cries in pain so deep.

I woke up this morning
A stormy pattern of thoughts
My pillow wet from tears
Feelings of isolation
Lack of love
Family desertion
I woke up this morning
Alone with my thoughts
Leaning over as I walked
Hunchback across the room
From my heavy heart

I...

Oh, fuming teardrop!
You’ve boiled over from wrath and anger,
leaving painful blisters as you sear the heart

Added to having the homework done 
And recess fun 
Wearing a mask

Charm cheery choice
Verb vibrant voice
Plot prudent poise


Love lingers light
Forge freedom's flight

Manipulation remains a popular tool today.
Misinformation seeps into susceptible sway.
Hated concepts and causes gain followers.
Fearful and bewildered as to those wallowers.

An extremely direct approach to criticism.
Implies visible disrobing flaws in cynicism.
This is still widely practiced...

Looking to hunt him down again

My shadow self; my silhouette.
Those clothes, that hair, a cigarette.
The joie de vivre; the vain regret.
What sort of pithy epithet

One deadly power play against human struggle
Against sin
Death
Is the devil

Father Christ call the devil “murderer”
Father of lies
Saint Peter warns his followers
Be sober, be watchful

The devil stalks around

Seeking someone to fall
The devil has...

Indeed we do,
    both me and you.

in its power play
may come to break its scaffold
from your heart
