Wrench the pages from my worn hands as my voice shatters
Leave it aflame as the embers rise, my soul now scattered
Within the bounds of sanity, I try, try to claw and scrape
A restless spector of taunt as I endeavour to escape
Concealment shant queal it, it lingers, never away
Perpetual pulverization, lo, shall the ashes stay
I’ll lay my ash remnants at the poisoned tree
A coiling branch tilt napes, suffocating me
Embed my teeth unto the apple of feign
Was not I told for safe?--now it’s pain
They’ll mock me, an “enduring lost”
I’ll swear to those above at cost
How to not yearn does it feel?
My freedom now to be heel.

burried and cured in sod's wallowing gallow
ground as tender flower of wonder
reading worlds into the hands
mired in swallows and clawed
she began trunks of brooches
for her second son
to flee the falling failing rakes
bested in deserts earthen ovens
rebuilding the gingers shant, easily
carnate fury, easters menage
blurry tests to bleak to smear
exposed to a heartless ember of septs
reticent snakes frail and drunk
back to the chest my second sons hum.......

the wrists of those intended,

The center of energy resides in my heart
Wherein the seed of divinity shant ever depart
Their joy's root anchors firmly, yet lightly
In my I AM presence it shines ever brightly
The Trinity is embodied in three glorious plumes
Blue, yellow, and pink; It's grand sacred rooms
Of Power and Wisdom and Eternal Love
Father, Son, Holy Spirit; on earth and above
The Threefold Flame I humbly seek
To arrive at last to the spiritual peak
With elation I fulfill my reason to be
The Liberty Flame! My soul's eyes can now see
At long last I've completed my life's fated course
As my soul splendidly weds the One Supreme Source

Luckleaf the leprechaun loves the spring
flowers and birds and the songs they sing
for gold and rainbows
green shamrocks you know
and all the mischief Luckleaf will bring
for Luckleaf has always been quite bold
no you shant get yer hands on his gold
try hard as you might
you wont win that fight
his gold is only for he to hold

Taking into account; the Poeter's quip
Shant it be unfurled to reveal thine
Penned and newly coined path of authorship
Paying out the Poeter’s plumb line
Veering from the course
Plotting new wave points
Carting the next rhyme before the horse
Beginning each line with the next conjoint
Taking time to proceed; and dote
Forsaking time tested ways
Remaking each verse concave and connote
Breaking the norm; within this phrase
Plucking the strings of a mental violin
That one trains to adroit and therein
Making each intellectual a rational linchpin.

I've made the wrong choice,
the voice,
in my head said go,
when instead,
it should have said,
whoa!
Take what you know
and think for a while,
reconcile,
go that mile
before you act,
show some tact,
don't react to feeling,
you're dealing
with bigger things here,
the fear
of the unknown,
you need to be shown
another way,
which, on another day,
wouldn't let you stray
down this path of least resistance,
so, in this instance,
you have no choice,
don't listen to that voice.

the date
it wasn't
random oh
no WE had a
planned on
schedule that
would put us in
front of each other
in an
airport
but we
resorted
to finding
our flying
times and
matching
like the "Dating
Game" what was
ideal so that when
we would feel we'd
be so real
be surreal
my smile would
equal hers but
hers would be
blinding so
it would seem
but deep down
i'm sort of kind
of like hanging
on a ledge with
one finger or
like Lloyd
not at all
just play ball
and do you
want strikes
or walks
or i could
even try
a bunt

i shant try
to write or
even sing
a shanty
about my
wife
she was born
as Annie but
in Japan she
is known as
Emi but if
any
one wants to
know my wife
just think of
savory dishes
with saving
grace
my mouth
waters when
stupid me
bothers to
taste her
soup
and it has
been awhile
since i've taken
her out for dinner
but i still feel i want
to carry her not out but

it started
with a ramble
words to self spoken
then came
a tapping
windows
blown open
starting to rant
with a sonorous
bird voice
that shant
keep me
talking
of love
and loss
without me
starting to rave on
and on and on
for evermore

Never say die or you might just believe it.
Those words you ingest go straight to your chest
and if your heart is sick, you might just heave it.
Never say die. There's a mighty reason why--
we were meant to live forever!
From the garden's sin we begin to disintegrate,
but by the pardon of Him we shant forever die.
Speak of Jesus' death while your breath is able.
Repent of your sins, for Christ has paid the price:
Nails of agony, with absolute compassion!
Despite mankind's cruel humiliating mocks,
Jesus bore lashes of love in sacrificial fashion.
Then after three days, he rises and walks!
Likewise, live again, leaving death behind.
Embrace the miraculous life you've been handed.
You came from the dust, and by trials you are sanded.
When you hurt, your High Priest can sympathize,
and when you rise, by this you'll know Him greater.
You shall forever live by the making of your Creator!
Now live with motivation, by the grace of the Lord.
Never say die, because you've been restored.

Life & Time
Written: by Miracle Man
2/1/2019
God bequeath us time for His pleasure,
So time is something we should treasure.
For once we've expended it shant return,
So for His work we need to show concern.
On fun filled days time seems to fly,
And once time has passed we can't retry.
On days of drudgery it seems to creep,
But nothing changes because we weep.
We oft look hinder at some time spent,
And for our shortcomings must repent.
