Long Set afire Poems

Pardon any absent adulation, bequeathed capitulation, devoted dedication, indiscretion, blabbering peroration, improper salutation or any unintended vexation if this unknown earthling sent a nearly identical message. He over-looked a small number of errors and hoped...

I watch the sun fall from the sky
tumbling soundlessly, the horrid quiet deafening.
As I see it touch the horizon, the world burns
and clouds, like kindling, burst into flames
set afire, until their brilliant hues burn to...

(Valentine's Collection)

(Historic Crown Of Sonnets)

5.
As our hearts they do sing our own love song, 
we are now lost in our deepest desires. 
Within my dreams, you shall ever belong, 
where you shall ever light up...

SILVER STAR

I have long since lost Hope,
because my paths are so endlessly long and aimless,
as if sculpted out of my restless spirit
in the long nights of reverie.
You know, Lord... I used to have my Hope.
It...

What moves us to believe is not the fact that revealed truths 
Appear as true and intelligible in the light of our natural reason
We believe because the authority of Eternal God Himself who reveals them

Ballet of Death

As trumpets prepare emotions
This sordid art knows well
My hooves stomp impatiently
Raising clouds of dust
Enshrouding my entrance

With shouts and whistles
A crowd's tense moments
Engulf this gladiator's arena
Demanding courage and blood

Far away
The grassy hills
Of his Ganaderias...

I prayed to God to guide me
To show me what is His will
Should I give the whole world
The light He’s put inside me
The one that shows me I am
Someone who loves without doubt
Someone who cares...

Thanks for making us tough, ever so rough

Black in the Day, Black in today
They still do us harm when caught unarmed
Still trying to hold us back, still mad because we’re black

No matter how much we...

The telephone rang, it was early dawn
The birds were unusually silent
Words came through like lightning bolts
‘Swallow me earth!  My pitiful plea
Scorched heart set afire!
Inconsolable, I lay upon the floor
With just one wish – to...

ANSWERED PRAYERS 

Crisp cutting edges are river aging...
Dusts, gossamer embracing carves and mounds.
All around unchanged. 
Solely, the wind curtains flow.
Seems, they are the only one engaging.
Have I step to an antique ground?

Waiting...
waiting... waiting
and wailing ....
When...
Somebody,
please...

She sat in the moonlight, her back to the bay,
Absorbed in thoughts of her own destruction.
A fortnight ago she had come to the rock;
At the break in the surf where the eddies pooled -
A night...

As soon the night collects your debt   


Behind this wretched door now thrust
awaits a homage set afire
As loosened shadows cough the dust
and creaking screams align the mire

Where worry gathers in the mist
along a...

I looked at you with resentful eyes
Blinded by the foggy lens that covered my vision
Once a sweet angel, I believed, had now blood studded horns
Whose managing grin and flaming soul corrupted my decision

For years I...

I've been beat down
dragged through the muddy streets
of harsh words and slander

I've been ripped to pieces
thrown to the ground
kicked in the trash

there is no love for this
despicable female
so why was I born?

I'm hated by those...

Refugees
Not aliens, once citizens
reduced to Stateless beings
Not because of own making
On run as find life simmering
due to anarchy set afire

Womb of their myopic terror
sans umbilical cord giving birth

Seductions of Sin

With the lusts of the world: 
do I thee; threaten more?
Is this what the world has to offer; 
since its originated defiance? 

That set the scene for this world;

Alone I roam the dreamland wood
sombre and empty, dark my mood
vain hope to meet my love denied
a throbbing, pumping ache inside 
afar a gleaming stream of blue:
mauve, purple, lilac mixed in hue

EINSTEIN’S DREARY

People are always asking why
Why do you yearn to set afire the sky?
They ask my empty voice for a rapid reply
Yet they might as well ask me “why I can’t fly?

In the center of...
