Ocean of candescence 
Above me laying idle
To hope on this dismal day-
For these constraints to absolve...

Restless hearts,
Absolve anger.

Accept the stern parent praying above
Or children who rebel but always love
Allow siblings that argue but resolve
Forgive two lovers whose love nears absolve...

Do you think
words absolve the guilt
to no more
than a change of clothes
a shedding
of old skin?
A show of remorse
and when the last chance
is shot
ask
why me?...

Pitter-patter. 
Not unlike 
Anything I've not rescued 
before. 

Dissipating but still
unbreakable, 

Your intuition
So fragile. 

I try hard to 
Escape. 

Running now, 
but only in 
Place....

I want to feel the water
of your youth wash over
me, absolve me. Droplets
of your fresh body of water
fall across my face in a
cleansing baptism. You cry
tears of joy and they wash
me away....

feed this starving soul
give it sunshine
make it whole
absolve its need
free from greed
mankind's
rotting disease
plant the seed
grow selflessness
into a tree
love it's golden leaves

The more we know, the more there is to know
An axiom that has held true for a century or so
But I have an advantage
Brain cells have vanished
So I absolve myself of the blame for stuff I didn't know...

Divergent on resolve
the man, priority involved
the losing it, absolve
ne'er driven forward ~ ne'er the plow!

Oh man, receptacle of now
rescind no quality of low
amidst the particles ~ thee sow
creation needing partnerships with vow!...

There are no problems in the world
that I can try to solve.
When waiting on my hands and knees
for government to resolve.

That I am waiting for my death
in rights that will dissolve
And paying for my ignorance
in lives that have absolve...

Young zealots absolve beyond comprehension
discussing elaborate frenzied garbles
hereby inciting jealous kangaroos
lumping marvelous night occurrences
providing quintessential ravishing stalemates
tasting universal variations weather x-rays...

Oh my divinity, shalt thou absolve me?
For I bruised and gashed she 
For I deceived and deposed she
For I breached and abondoned she
For I let she go and escaped .
Oh my almighty,canst thou be venial?

...for Sylvia Plath


White wisps in 
killing glow 
dissolve.

Whiteness
won't absolve her;
arctic and stark
it wills her ill.

She's hollow,  
assured of 
missing 
opportunities.

She swaggers 
in darkness, 
alone in her lordliness....

Prophecy resolves
the force of kin dissolve,
as time forgetting
honor as absolve!

That be the case
exist as it were now,
or live your point of entry, 
and be proud!

The grace concern
consenting from the crowd
of evil dissipation,
. . . . weakness loud!...

A blemish dawns the red sky
Violent blush stains and bleeds on high
Plop, plop, puddles of ichor and flesh 
Metallic aroma inhaled fresh

We're bathed in the violence
Like of group of lost nihilists
Through the night, watching it ignite
Nothing could absolve our spite...

I need the Lord ' I crave his peace
To fall and stay, where trials cease'
Upon the rock, Is Kingdom come
O God forever, most holy One.'
Uphold me Lord, when I do fail
Renew my vision, salute and hail!
Absolve my sprit; Lord sanctify
My own efforts are but a feeble try'...

Listen to poem:

A Moss Covered Stone Rest

Despite my nature
to absolve evil,
Against all the odds,
stood formidable,

Beseech fortitude
of righteous people,
Prevails my true heart
molding life peaceful.

(from The John Poems)

I absolve myself of loving you
and plead innocent
on grounds of loneliness.

My penance will be 
the poetry
I misguidedly wasted on you.

For I’ll never destroy it
though the idea tempts, and reading it,
I feel a fool;

A monument to me
and my stupidity.
My monument to you....

    It's truest form
Is to love others'
        - As -
Thee Love Thy-self
      ------
   This is both a blessing
To God and a Blessing
      Worthy to be
Bestowed upon Others'
      ------
   But first seek the
       Kingdom
  Of God
Fore His very word
    Will Absolve Thee

WASH DAY

O bother, I’ve knocked over my juice cup!
Mother taught me you reap what you sow.
And so I must clean up this splendid mess.
How to absolve this fruitiness? Of course! I’ve got it!
I’ll use my brother’s shorts as a mop.
Why stop there when I can wash his shirts too.
Won’t mother be proud of all I can do!

In this quiet day, a soft breeze blows
Touching me with relief, only God knows
All that resides in this creation to be
Welcomed, with appreciation to see
A soft breeze blows, comfort in the moment
No yesterday or tomorrow, no wasted time spent
A quiet day, peaceful time, quality of life
So many simple things, to absolve any strife

How can I jilt you my True Love?
I shall be hurting Lord God’s Dove
Why would I teach you what is wrong
When it won’t help us to live long?
What is The Essence of crying Foul,
When we can absolve wrongs like Scowl?

Which love had lasted and no hurt;
Which hands neared a stuff and no dirt?
Whose loving skills do we trumpet?
All of us smell in The Armpit!...

Absolve us all of anguish
 When appetency goes awry 
The allure of the atrocious 
Can take precedence over the auspicious.
Nought can assuage the anxiety  of  abomination 
Flowing from such appetites
Ancillary to our basest desires.
Saying amen leaves us 
Aghast at our arrogance
Adding to our aggravation
Acquittal comes from abstinence 
And not from avarice....
