A Pathway To Unfathomable Love
Kiss me as you’d kiss a baby,
softly to show your love.
Touch me gently,
as you would someone hurt and afraid.
Hug me and hold me tightly,
that I might feel secure and protected.
Smile at me and laugh with me,
so I can see your joy and inner peace.
These are the things that sooth my soul,
inviting me to join you

Protective Darkness
It was a million years ago
I walked out of the light
Left everything, I cared about
The darkness wrapped around me
Feeling so much like Death’s shroud
I never looked back at my past
Never looked toward my future
The darkness became a womb for me
And I had no desire to leave it
So, here I stay
A part of the

Shall Lift Protective Hand from the Unfaithful
You decided to abstain your vote for or against Israel, United States. You stabbed your ally in the back.
You know that we are the only ones who stand with Israel (who was attacked over Red Heifers and the right to rebuild their own Temple in their own Land).
You know that a

naturally protective reflex
Mayonnaise in my mouth;
it was turkey—the first Pollack
I saw. His fault that the splatter
looked like a forgotten egg on the side.
Walking toward the waste
basket, I threw up in it after.
It tasted like sour metal
with rusty, iron edges.
At the sides of it, not

Protective Provision
You are being transported
On the road, HE, provided
In the JEEP promised to me
I got to walk the way
Following,HIM, in the dark
But never, really, got to see
How it would play out, in the natural
You are living in the home
A place of peace and rest, He, provided
To shelter from storms, outside
In the house promised to me

An angel earning his wings from an epiphany of prophetic elation

Protective Lyricism For the Ages Part One
Protective Lyricism for the Ages Part One
In awe of Bob Dylan’s poetic creations
The war of the villains eccentric provocations
The score of penicillin for preventative medications
The law of premonitions filled with the Holiest vibrations
Refusal to compromise when faced with an ethical question
The commercially incentivised disgrace of advertisements ill-intentions
The indisputable power of a loving embrace when the

Protective Before a Detective
“Not sure of being familiar
With Washed-Ashore Emilia,
Neither saw The Cadillac
Not The Woman in Lilac,
Whom they’d decided to waste,
Stripping her down to the waist”.
Oh! How my two ears did burn
And my quiescent belly churn
And I stopped seeing Keats Urn
When the cops said “It’s my turn
To down sit for questioning”
And me was positioning,
Their routine activity
That

There Is No Other Dad Like You
Dad,
I loved it when you showed me how to hammer in a nail.
The many times at the lake you carried my shovel and my pail.
When you taught me how to hold a hockey stick.
Shooting the puck is what I learned quick.
The times you hid behind the tree.
Making sure my sisters and I were as safe
