Long Templed Poems

I dream into my Ta(0)ist
not-Universal Yang equals
not-Unitarian Yin
Sanctuary,
expecting to be greeted
by visions
of familiar spiritual apartheid.

feels and resonates
with multicultural communities outside,
tilting GoldenRule windmills,

Israel Beckoned...In A Dream

This secular skeptic beheld,
eyes hallucinated, harried, felled
and haunted by
holographic images gelled
that didst silently scream herald
ding exhaustively

roaming, schlepping, meld
ding and trudging across
elapsed, nor quelled
blinkered, bloodied dead souls
across fractured wartorn veld,
where bludgeoned ghastly

eons of...

from sinking in quicksand
I say things some might not approve of
They will know when I say the words

I broke the stone that built the roads, my friend
And when through college my escape came
I was the first to that place they sent
So this telephone line
This school
This post office
This clinic
And a community council that...

A September call-up, pennant race;
Colossal bat and fresh young face.
Believed the hype and promised much
But found a pitch he couldn’t touch.

Fast tracked by coaches for greater good,
From age of nine he swung sweet wood.
Each level...

Freedom in infinite latitude of grace
Answering questions life cannot face
Inspiring a victor's heart in salvation's race
Templed in the love of Christ, the joy to taste
Heaven as bread, and earn it as place.

Interned to Moorehouse, forsook a health degree

you wear away at me with your silence
not with whetted words
or physical altercations

No...

God Speak and Song

You speak to me
In this templed place
Where lovely doves murmur from rafters
And little squirrels race.

Gratitude fills the heart with awe,
Leaves twinkle as diamonds
In the cool morning sun.
Whispering in a soprano breeze,

To songs...

That cloth saturating

That teen smile from ;loves first glance
Lovered friends

That moment of perfect grace
as you look upon new born face

Sin ravaged world free falling into emptiness and doom
Tentacled false cliffs of wealth on time's bluff:
Images of illusion, shrivelled leaf after morning's bloom
Messiah annexed from dream and devotion, 
Ultimate giver of life and love, urging...

You've lost your mate one decade gone,
a longshoreman who bode his time
upon the seas from dusk till dawn.

Knew every route, when he should climb
the towering waves to safely ground
his skiff, bring men home in their...
