The Pain of Enticing Ice
Th'pain of ice is th'lacquer o'stife
To th'begg'd bane, stilled, thawed
Caught'n satin fame, dragg'd towards
Th'Blood of a sadden'd kiss,
"To this"
"To what o'this"
Seen 'nstead of 'nfringed love
The blade, call'd catharsis a dove,
"To this"
"To what o'love"
Fraught, unthought shove
Fame fall'n still, dripp'd 'n drench'd f'love
Bade blade ripp'd the blanch'd flesh
O'th'pure goers' eternal rest
Lay hereafter, for'ver after,
Goeth detestable

Prelude To A Fairy Tale
Once upon a time
over the hills and far away,
near the sea there lived
a viridescent princess.
She gazed at the waves
which seemed to appear so royal.
Still, they have freedom
that grace the scullery maids.
Rushing to the edge
stopping short of going forward.
The story of life.
Her crown seemed to possess her.
Forced to become rogue,
battle the storm below

Covid Prelude to a Seminal Moment
Most Free thinkers ought then to agree,
that this 'Cabaal' has always been,
Quite sophisticated, hidden
Although very devious utterly,
Yet openly subversive,
With its insipid evil methodology..
Were Trump to return
and Biden resign,..
Albeit though by stealth
of an ulterior design
Their owners in Luciferian Banking decide..
So, a ruse, Good cop/Bad cop
notwithstanding,
What then

He does just barely enough to win

A Preamble Ramble
Before we play, let's preamble with the entree,
Enjoy the soft shoe shuffle, before the souffle.
Dancing tipsy, on tippy-toes, to belay and delay the mainstay.
It's a wily whisper of words, a teaser to savor in foreplay.
To amble and gamble, to begin with the starters on show,
Unscrambles the egg, but won’t scramble the glow.
For it's only a

PRELUDE TO LONELINESS
We let time go by thinking that we will remain the same.
As we were together each day became a change within itself.
The change within us gradually occurred.
Separation was not our plan.
What we did not see or try to understand that our spirit was not the same.
Dividing us a sharp precise division leaving us not as

On Phantom Pain prelude
On Phantom Pain (Prelude)
When an illness
— such as blindess or dementia —
Descends…
Then
Which direction of the heart
Will you choose
To mark the rising vibrance
Of each new day’s stark,
Hopeful radiance…?
** This is the prelude to a poemstill in progress, describing/defining phantom pain.

Heavenly Prelude
As Christian worshipers, there is a special place where we meet
together and offer our God worship that's personal and free.
Although buildings constructed for God's business are also primary,
The prime function and purpose happen in a place called the SANCTURY.
In the SANCTUARY, there is seeing, hearing, and feeling.
In the SANCTUARY, many are experiencing healing.
There are myriads

Prelude To a Misty Morning
Last night in the garden, I bent on one knee,
Proposed to my love and she agreed to marry me.
I picked a crimson rose and placed it in her hand,
the hand that would soon wear my wedding band.
Wettened by the mornings dew
Closely spaced where rows of roses grew
Footprints stained the cobblestone
Where my love

Kisses As Passion's Prelude
In passion's realm where hearts entwine,
Where desire ignites with every sign,
There lies a moment, sweet and true,
Where kisses pave the path anew.
Like gentle raindrops on a parched land,
Kisses quench the thirst, hand in hand,
They speak a language, soft and divine,
Whispering secrets, bodies intertwine.
Upon the lips, a tender embrace,
A prelude to passion's fiery chase,
They dance in
