With doubts and irrational drivels
My heart is livid and hardened
For it freezes in the potentials of disappointment
Of failure, downfall, and impending death
In ceasefires of never mind, and never more

Modern day pharisees
The Holy Spirit through our souls searches
and in despair silently He cries:
there are so many Pharisees in churches,
exhibiting hypocrisy and lies.

About Christ abundantly they know,
their knowledge they're happy to parade,
but not His holy image they...

Nothing good is expected from them.

Premium Member The Great American Make-Believe
Suburban resident pretense, a bleak uniformity.
I grew up among the repetitious homes,
isolated alienated, I wandered the conformity,
the endless square yards, the dull feckless syndrome.

Repugnant yet intriguing, a redundant singularity,
fabrications of fortified, fraudulent self-deception,  
blocks...

Is friendship self-deception that’s quite cracked in part, in whole?
Integrity seems integral to “Friendship” from get-go

On Dinner and Hearing the News

Your soft touch, elbow to elbow, not withdrawn, steady;
An unnecessary head on shoulder in lament.
