which prospect to acquire essential 
commodities sabotaged 
at the altar of...

Discovering what family is really worth
My life is moving on with a new kind of birth

“Harlot! How dare you betray my dear son!
Now bearing a damned vagrant’s little one!”
But Joanne cocked her head, looked quite confused,
“But father wherever did you hear such news?!”
And then affected to look rather stunned.

I couldn’t believe my eyes; I was humbled, I

We last saw him in the summer of '78.
Our ministry with kids had closed,
and we were being reassigned to a
church 2000 miles away. Little did
I know that we would ever see John
again.

My wife and I...

I cause one's self confidence to crumble away

I infect the minds of the old and young 
Trapping them in the isolated web I've strung

Earth life, a hard school, dark desire cesspool,
Senses externalised, all objects sized,
No wonder then, we behave like a fool,
Truth dawns, when by Holy Spirit baptised.

Ego controls thoughts, so we’re ill-advised,

Now in the fluffy white clouds above

In this place, this state of mind,
Thoughts of you and I, rewind.
Though much devoid of any joy,
These thoughts take time to re-deploy.
Each moment spinning like a web,
As emotions start to flow and ebb.
The solace of...

Political poems, political belief.
Either one side or the other.
War rages on with no relief.
Do we have to attack another?

A double standard applies,
in regards to political views.
When did beliefs, become lies?
What happened to the right to...

Versatile mix to pick and choose.
Soothing lullabies by Eve
Swing us to childhood retrieve.

That things are not the way they seem.

Forces Found Collected and Combined

Forces were found collected and combined;
Either would go with or had been left behind;
Could consider,
Some a quitter;

A sure ear-bursting announcement:
It shall walls vibrate: pronouncement 
A knight’s last-hour confession:
Banging the pregnant profession…

“I can’t. I will not! Where is he?
Don’t even mention any fee
May be, The Vicar should do so 
Here’s the microphone...
