Meta poetry
Know thyself, and all thy ways,
Every path, your nights and days,
For truth resides where shadows creep,
In silent depths where secrets sleep.
Know the face beneath the skin,
The quiet pulse, the storm within,
In mirrored glass the soul does stare,
To weigh its love, to lay it bare.
---
Love is the quiet ember flame,
Whispering gently your sacred name,

I drove the meaning of the poem home
I drove the meaning of the poem home,
dropped her at her front door, then drove home alone.
And I never heard much more about her after that,
except a rumor that some scholarly types had made a sanctum of her flat,
where twice a month they meet to chew her fat.

META-MORPHOSIS AND me
I heard a voice convicting me
prompting calling
knocking at my door
to turn back to God
...drawing me
The Holy Spirit helped me
to op'ed this door
I heard Jesus
He came through
He dined with me and I with He.
I understood I’m born again
made free,eyes opened
now I see !

Contested Meta Poem
In front of a blank page, I sit with my pen,
Writing a poem for a contest again.
With thoughts in a tangle, I ponder and fret,
“What metaphor fits?” but none come to me yet.
I gaze at my cat, dear Sami by name,
Her eyes hold a mystery, yet nothing to claim.
“Could she

April 30—Poem about poetry
Why Do I write
These poems every day?
Why do I spend so much time
Writing down these verses
That few will ever see?
Why do I bother?
The only answer is because
I must write daily
My inner muse compels me
And I have to write down
These mad thoughts.
And share them
With the world
Even if no one reads

A Silly Little Limerick
I can't really write a sonnet
But if you want a limerick i'm on it
And if I had to write without rhymezone
My mind would have blown
Therefore I have to reliable upon it

Meta
Dick the dog dangles his balls for all to see.
I greet him on the way.
"How they hanging Dick?"
The question is rhetorical.
"Bark once if I smell immortal."
Dick pisses on my leg
while his owner speaks of Keats.

For Meta Or Worse
It appears that the Metaverse
is doing decidedly worse;
seems folks are forgetting
‘bout virtual jetting,
creating real holes in the purse.
—————
Facebook announced it was putting a $1.5B expansion of their data center in Hunstville on hold. Seems the Metaverse has lost the company $9.4B in the first nine months of 2022, according to 1819news dot com.

Meta
I never meta man I liked
Who censored what I had to say.
For when you limit what we write,
Our freedom slowly slips away.
At issue: social media;
The first amendment, in the morgue.
The leader is the offspring of
Commander Data and the Borg.

Educating soul, body, spirit the Jesus way
Revisiting hate, avarice ... Before going away
