I woke up in the middle of the night with tears running from my eyes. I woke up in the middle of the night because my spirit cries
It is not the tear that falls when...

"The In-Between"

I ripped the pages of 
that tired old story 
from the heart, a body of work

buried the misdiagnosed slanders
then wiped their mouths
with the back of my spoon

the feed they found,
passed the disingenuous time;
some found...

Newsflash:
"Stranger times have never been
As humanity battles forces as yet unseen..
Not just those things beyond our eyes
But hidden troubles that wrestle for our lives.."

Hey, muppet, how you doin?

It's hard.
All this fear that I'm not doing my best
and that everybody else feels
hell-bent on doing their worst
to thwart my needs as wants right now.

Let's build a new-old story together,
my lovely...

In the depth of the night, when the veil of darkness covers the world like a regal...

With a voice like thunder – some days
gentle blessings on others, as my heart prays

no one on earth would have expected
the beautiful love His...

any fool can be a philosopher
and it's not that big a deal
to be an Oracle either
we all notice more than we let on
so much is kept from us
to lessen disruption is the scam
while time disrupts...

All the stars and their kingdoms use Christ’s name in error 
Muttering to themselves “Who is this quiet torchbearer?” 
“Where did he come from; what place birthed this wise wayfarer?”
“How did this soul come here?...

Passed down through generations of my family history
is the story of a man buried, and of an ensuing mystery.

about the presence of a rose appearing...

Hell is a real place, not merely a fable
Dark and lonely – it’s filled with lost souls
Many there, we all thought were stable
But, our final destination – only God controls

Hell was meant for the devil,...

A strange claim
Of a man of passion
Of kindness
He said
Let the children come to me
For what man would refuse the smile
The innocence of a child
He parted his kindness
His wisdom
His love of all tribes
Animal and man, felt...

I WISH I WEREN’T A BUNNY
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS


I never wanted to be a bunny, I’m not playing this game
I’d reconsider a puma: a lion with a frightening mane
But that’s not my fate, I’m a bunny,...

In the heart of the night, with Chopin as the ally of silence,
Looking towards the sky, I wonder, who shall listen,
Knowing illusions fade, but you are eternity,
I'd summon you to me, through some conjuration, maybe.

False promises and bold faced lies
			From leaders we call men,
			Too foolish, vain and unwise
			It’s the election blues again.

			Feign to believe the web they weave
			With patient ears we listen,
			Future balanced if they achieve
			From deceitful eyes teeth...

A still so bitter it flows, splashing fears
Weary as the moments I would never presume
Pierce the heart with feelings, frantic tears

It’s the night, breathing in echoes of anxiety
Murmuring shadows...

Remember the story 
of Billy Goats Gruff?
The troll under the bridge,
and all of that stuff?
If you liked that old story
it's all good and well,
but it isn't at all 
the troll tale I will tell.

Now, Trolius...
