moving toward speaking

to another vowel sound
all within the same syllabylle
 to another within the same syllable

combiined in the effect to convey the right means

   I have said with pride all my life,
   "I am an American!"
   We will always be on your side.

   Embarressment and shame,
   Fill me every day.
   Murder and hate crimes increase with no release in sight.

   Failing abysmally with our

Oh and then

What is it with the fans and the guy known as 
" Big Meanie" Maze? Some may be used to calling
him "The Craze" of Fresno: there were he defeated
Five reigning champions in one night! An off the grid
Superstar who once wrestled(defending against two
top notch contenders:.when his partner defaulted
and refuse to make the date, he was

Premium MemberBlamed and Shamed

 “When you’re blamed and shamed for something you didn’t do, 
remember the one who looks out for you, He knows the truth”
Long ago when I was in junior school
I was made to look a ludicrous fool
A note was passed around, from desk to desk
Guess who got the blame when it came to rest.

It was

Premium MemberWho Gaze Upon A Woman Shamed

Who gaze upon a woman shamed?
Her clothes torn off, as she’s unnamed.
Her flaming hair pulled into pain.
Cattle calling, cheering insane.
The taunts and tortures of the beast.
He’s in heat - her flesh, he feasts.

Who will save her?
The whisperer
will lead her home,
flames gently comb,
as he wipes tears,
removes all fears.

He adorns her in clothes of white.
Crystal clear, gives

Spread It Around

SPREAD IT AROUND
Without Jesus in my life
I have nothing left at all
My Creator and Redeemer
Upon Him I will call

He knows my every moment
He knows me inside out
He understands and cares
He knows what I'm about

No secrets can I hide
From my Lord and King
And so in joy or sorrow
I must tell Him everything

At times I have shamed

Premium MemberA Shamed City

Our mayor and city council know what to do
The county supervisors and talk show hosts too

Budget measure HHH we Angelinos passed
Costing billions, homelessness would end at last

There were 57,000 unhoused in L.A. last year
Now it’s 68,000, growing with elections near

The garment district downtown and all of skid row
Are squalid tent camps where filth and despair

She We Shamed and Blamed

she had wept and wept
down sun crept than slept and slept
and become adept

as we all had feared
were horrible with a beard
always seemed so weird

for love we did long
even though Russia seemed so strong
they were really wrong

fields were found flowing
much grain they had been growing
with market growing

by us she was blamed
our minds by her had been

Shamed Emotion

What is angered emotion 
that runs so strong
It can take magnificence 
and destroy with one storm
It is the unseen force of power 
that swells from within to erupt 
and not cower
No shackles to break or bars to remove
It simply bursts forth without any reprove
It sets on a mission to ultimately release 
a darkness inside that

The Shamed Woman

She saunters in unbidden
Burning hot as hell fire
Her water as pure as the driven snow
Her scent like a warm summer breeze

Men love her with a passion
Women loath her with a vengeance
Children whisper about her in dark corners
For she is deemed forbidden fruit

She is the shamed woman
A crown she wears unapologetically
Dare you not utter her name

The new Girl at Work (The Coward Speaks)

Should I feel a shamed? 
I want to kiss the new girl at work 
but I don't know her name.
Her understated beauty 
is the first page of a book
I can't put down.
Man... just learning her name 
will be my favorite sound.
She's the one I want, and need.
The treasure

Premium MemberThe Shamed Soul

A life invaded by power of base desire
metamorphoses into an object inert.
A being pristine and vibrant abused
by the brute clutch of carnal instinct
strays like strewn pearls from string snapped.

The sane sense corroded by acid impulse
doesn’t repent for a moment lacerating
the vulnerable unworldly psyche unwary,
fostering fervent dreams of belonging,
decimated by savage affront unforeseen.

For a body caught

A Man

He was a man, he was my man 
Yes! A man enough to propose me
But not a man enough to know exactly the meaning of that
He was a man enough to break my pride
That is my virginity i am talking about
The source that made me to be called a woman
 I thought he is a

Shamed Silence

In this silence
I am flipping through
Your pictures
For me you reserve
The rare of you;
Your videos are keeping
Me company,
That part of you
No one else knows but me!
You make me love me.

What kind of love is that?

When I keep hurting you
With words baseless razor sharp,
After that I regret those
Demonic whispers,
Just how do I allow them
To ambush my brains
