To Emily, Who Heard the Quiet Things
Emily, you stitched the world into small, precise syllables, tucking eternity into lines so brief, they might be mistaken for whispers. But in your whispers, there were earthquakes, the kind that only the soul could feel. You walked the garden paths of Amherst, where bees hummed their sermons and the wind brushed secrets against your ear. Did you know your words would fly...

A Slave Walking Into Grave
I cornered a fed-up knave On the subject of The Treasures God gave, Which Nature had fought to save Between Open Hill and Concealed Cave And he acidly began to rave At the wrongs men crave And at their will to ways pave For those who cold lies microwave … Broadly too did he rave At killers who murders brave And unwittingly...

Premium Member Flowery Verbose Sermons
New reverend espouses ridiculously flowery verbose sermons Congregation divides several times over the next few months I stay, imagining they will get better, more down-to-earth, honest. Pretty soon there are only two of us left. We give each other shrugs and glances. He does not ask for help. So we remain silent. Contributing to his failure....

Sermons In My Nations
SERMONS IN MY NATIONS Lucky are the elected, For they shall have all chances, To change the law and favour themselves, To increase their pay and rob taxpayers. Favoured are those with tribesmen at the top, For they shall find no hindrance, In any office they shall seek, Neither shall they be jobless nor be job-seekers. Great are those with power, For no law shall...

Sterile Sermons
An old church stands with a spired steeple Amidst the townspeople at Fox and Main Where the hypocrites pray for sinful souls And clergy holds sermons that entertain. Within this sanctuary lined with pews And opalescent glass and glittering gold Odoriferous breaths of morning booze Betray inebriants among the fold. The Sunday sermon lectures temperance Its message they heard many times before The spoken words...
