If A is B and B is C
Then A is C by syllogy
And A, B, C are one and three
The holy classic trinity
So Aristotle comes to be
Among Aquinas’ company
Thomas Aquinas a 13th century friar
raised poetry a little higher
With his prayer anapestic
an AABBA now styled a limerick
perhaps led to the position of prior!
The Agent Intellect…
God speaking loud
Aquinas his servant,
empirically proud
Action is needed,
the soul lies in wait
The body left wanting
—new pearls for the gate
(Villanova University: December, 2021)
I sleep with Saint Anselm,
but wake with Aquinas
My dreams to envision
what the morning will say
Creativity’s twins,
imagined then stated
Epiphany’s birth
—morphing night into day
(Dreamsleep: September, 2020)
Spanish glance
in fields of Aquinas cascades
fur lined trees
Lemons as sweet to taste
Wild African violets
New poetry
in the clothe of Aragon
the clasp of love indefinitely
the finesse of ease
near the village
breathing in
fairest church, moss side
Firmament bequeathed
at oceans ride
Ye of Little Faith
for Thomas Aquinas
Part readily the skin
and readily the pulp,
as readily the tongues
wild apples bore,
eviscerate the cores,
and watermelon spit the pits
they cannot swallow.
Let this be done before
the tongues
wild lemons bore
find no cores.

Without there being a God,
we could never question his existence
Through the shadows of the interrogatory
divinity shines
Do apes question, do birds question,
do flowers question—Aquinas asked
Only through the act of self-reflection
—is the Creator truly known
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2018)
Lord -
God ,
Creator
of the Natural Order.
Chem trails and weather modification...
Let the social engineering not find us oh Lord.
We hide not in you,
but in you -
a shield
armor
and sword.
As the rains come, so does the hurricane. Tornadoes , hail, and floods. The devastating effects of Aquinas sin. Through prayer and contemplation we will understand, man is a greater enemy than satan.
