Premium Member Moscow I
It caters to an arrogance of hate when war becomes a method of despite. Through vile contempt, he seeks to cultivate a dogma that defines inhuman blight. The devil’s plan has given due consent to let annihilation be the goal. Let hands be clean, let hearts bear no lament as slaughter tends to those without a soul. Such dogma fades when blood...

As swift assaults endeavored to prevail, the magnitude of death was asinine. ‘Twas such a toll above a measured scale that no explicit value could define. As battles raged, no exploit could surmount the endless waves that fell within the storm. Such tolerance exceeded Heaven’s count and thus, infinity became the norm. But still they charged into the depths of hell with nothing but...

And all the world would change forevermore, for solitude’s content has come undone. Its island bliss could harbor it no more as destiny unleased the rising Sun. The sleeping giant woke to see its rays unfurl their wrath upon its harbor gate. They struck with stealth, setting it ablaze and left the world not knowing of its fate. And as the...

Moscow
Moscow The winter sun, the sense of the cold season! Heavy snowfall was closing the window of my car. Tire sounds echo in the tracks of the road. Confidence sound effect. The noses of the traffic cops on the highway were in shades of pink. The view from the hotel's window was the thrall rise of another hotel. Because the woman...

Watercolor Cat, Watercolor Cat, You are the most wonderful Watercolor Cat I have ever could dream about, And I wonder, my friend Watercolor Cat, and admire you perplexed and mesmerized, Tell me, how you know and how you do that you stand up straight and mastered this dignifying posture, Like a masterpiece, And these yellow eyes, like sunflowers, while sitting...

Premium Member Let's Ban War
“Let’s Ban War” Have your ever thought About banning war? How much better we All would be If we just banned war? So much more we could do. We could buy food And clothe the poor. We could chase butterflies Around in a Zoo. Look at monkeys That looked like you. There is so much we could do, If we just banned war. We could tuck our boys In down filled...

Holy Ornaments
destined sacredness in the red of the blood, intertwined shoots from the wisdom of redemption: - Woman, no one has ever trusted us more than the good God, he entrusted us with all his love, with the seed of the worldly fruit, by his favor we find delight, - Man, no one has ever trusted us more than the good God, he has...

Moscow
Moscow is not in Russia. It’s a town in Tennessee. It’s full of trees and flowers and shops for you to see. We have industry and commerce although we’re a small town, and some people come to visit but wind up hanging ‘round. Others go shopping in our fair town square while some come on weekends to breathe our country air. Whatever is your reason to work...

On a Train To Moscow
'twas very many years ago On a train to ancient Moscow: A man on the back row quietly sat, Like a rat hiding from a ferocious cat. Slow-and-steady the wheels rolled (On that winter night very cold,) As the erstwhile where he sat mute, Stared at a figure before him so cute. And for many hours on that train Which journeyed down Moscow's lane, He...
