Long Sluggard Poems

When we were young,
I held my long tongue
Foolishly sheepish 
Life is a sea full of fish

Good times spent with you mindlessly 
Boy, I don't feel guilty for being your minion of troublesome crime...spent so playfully...

Not really fit for you.
Probably slipped under God’s nose and dropped here.
I bet He wonders “who’s this” when I pray.
I’m surely not on any “living human list”

My life’s smashing all over,
Is it even correct to...

Looking at the mirror 
with good day’s pleasure
I see slothfulness’ glamor 
taunting with delight’s leisure
Yet ready to attack sense of honor
defying time-worth’s treasure
So defiant; not a generous donor 
offering gift that costs much pressure!

I challenge...

When we first met
Your light blinded my senses
I got too close
When your presence obliterated my fences

No boundaries with you
Your fragrance made me tired
As your promise of passion
Got my furnace all fired
....up

Up, Up, Up to your...

Living walls composed of tiny living building blocks
Pinchers, claws, legs, holding on, gripping, intertwined
Compelled to embrace each other in this crawly house
Scratching on hardened shells, always adjusting, tightening
Ever responding to the constant hum deep within
Awaiting...

Rotating on its axis, 
The earth labours
making the world go round
The planets also work,
As they revolve, 
around the sun
The solar system is working,
With the burden of all things

Ants work day and night
To erect hardened anthills
Only...

The vineyard of this man, who lacks judgment, and the field of the sluggard is 
overgrown with thorns, and nettles cover its face.  Its stonewall is in ruins; by 
much slothfulness the building decays...

I carry you when you can walk no more.
I lead you so all you have to do is follow.
I provide for you that you have need of nothing.
Yet; you lack faith in me...

I make your...

He slept under the moon
He basked under the sun
He lived a life of going to-do
And died with nothing done

The spring well and root of all vice
The canker of the mind
An appendix to nobility
The only refuge...

Friend Is No More The A Word

Are you lost?
Are you my friend?
I can't say yes.
But you can't say no either.
Well why do you help a stranger you won't call a friend?
For I guess i am...

How long wilt thou sleep 
and slumber, O
sluggard?
When wilth thou arise from 
thy yearn and
yawning yard?
Yet a little sleep, a little 
slowing down to
slumber,
so shall the poverty come 
like a
crushed Cucumber.

How long wilt thou bark...

The Sluggard
Written: by Miracle man
September 15, 2020

what to him is found pleasing.
Opportunities come and go 
without any attempt at seizing.

* The Bible calls him a sluggard
who doesn’t think past today.
He makes...

Come sit with me in the garden swing.
I must be outside, in search of spring.
Will the first robin now return,
and we observe his bob and run,
his comic search for wiggle worm?

Will crocus' cheeky eye pop...

Hang not tinsel upon your soul,
With false expressions of goodness.
A fool’s gold is not worthy of fame,
Although its glitter may catch the eye.
Let your deeds done be true and faithful,
As a springboard of hope for...

Ants exemplify diligence
With their labor-propped persistence 
Smiting attacking indolence
Amidst united resilience… 

They don’t starve when there’s pestilence
Since they work against virulence
Warning laziness’ insistence
To flee from crises’ prevalence…

Learning from insects’ competence
Rebukes me of my negligence
I confess...

They are small but lift many times their weight

Put in your best effort, 
Being organized helps you recognize...

THE TRAP

The trap is open, with the bait arguing out
Its immunity with the victim somewhere
In a world that flashes its sharpened sword
To cut across all those rock-hard impunities

You petulant preacher comment not on that,
Count your...
