Poems about Adam, Eve, Lucifer

Eden
by Michael R. Burch

Then earth was heaven too, a perfect garden.
Apples burgeoned and shone, unplucked on sagging boughs.
What, then, would the children eat?
Fruit indecently sweet,
redolent as incense, with a tempting aroma...

Premium Member Tragic Climates For Comedians
If we invested more educational mentoring time
sharing our own mixed-use and neglectful abuse
poetic wisdom stories,
and less time memorizing exegetical LeftBrain histories,
we might more cooperatively learn to live healthier together
and to internally die less, apart.

An under-exploited...

Free Base Fable
My baby brother had the face of an angel;
One proud young lion all supple grace and golden hair
Shamelessly evocative against the backdrop of life.
My baby brother...untutored gigelo from birth. 
His eyes: sapphire blue and beautiful

The Sea We Will Not Tame
Wondering upon our almost forgotten smiles
and twinkling eyes hidden, 
we have spun this world
in smoke and mirrors, 
reflecting light in curving waves. 

We have wandering
into the misty fog
as it marched 
out of clear air

the stars weep ...
but not for heaven
they weep for vacant eyes
and hearts of parched desire
with tears untold ...
and uncounted

for where is the hunger -
the yearning for substance
that sets tongues afire?
where are souls that ache for

The letter stays sealed within the envelope unread and faded 
Bringing neither hope, nor memories blurred or jaded 
The day it came I could not know
Which destiny the words would hold.
Out of fear I refused to break...

(Forgive the Infected or Slay Them?)

Well, it's clear! Both with Angel and Spike, love prevails,
And it makes a good yarn too! Does Buffy though sin
In seducing these Vampires (their weakness as men)?

Mother said uncounted times,
“Sally, I know you better than you know yourself,”
But, if that were true she wouldn’t have said so,
For it hurt — much — and I cannot believe she 
Meant...

Surely there is but one place to start the heart to sing

"3 Days Before the Fall"

When the 3 days 
of darkness came,
we were ill prepared, still 

the sky was blue 
not a cloud
in sight

the sun

well into the dark night

the fire spread

Halloween Aliens Awaken
Haunted House was built on cemetery grounds
Completed at a time before the aliens in white arrived
Cold fleshed, green teethed, in gray seasons grip
Beneath the rocks in molded soil hidden
Bones lifted in a dig disfigured

My Treasure Within
My Treasure Within

Somewhat smooth, and sort of round,
Lying here, on the ground,

Baked by the unrelenting Sun,
Ages ago, my life had begun,

I have seen rivers come, and go,
Seen glaciers, also, ebb and flow,

No one has thought...

Then Night Came
The sun did rise;
Its golden pallor brightening the land,
giving heat and light to the pristine earth,
lush vegetation, rich soil, and pure sand,
our planet glowing with life at its birth,
wondrous creatures, some great and some small,

the Lord of hosts immortal vied

Epitaph
When I go
please
do not drape me over
with some piece of tarnished cloth
some flag of esteem 
who’s dignity has been lost
and long forgot

Please
do not weep for me
in the tears of poppies
and to such brutal arrogance

And if by love they should be saved
lift them by angels
in innocence to a horizons trumpet

They who have fallen unnumbered

and the factions of brush aside politics

Mine is an existence binary and subsidiary.
My ode is to code.
I move only to algor-rhythms. 
I output from your input. 
I’m built to calculate, tabulate, correlate.

Never to predicate, adjudicate, pontificate, 
or demand that you abdicate....

There were girls and boys

Children threw her
