Armored with God, coffee, sunshine
                                in cold cruel world...

For you I live
Armored head to toe
In preparation 
To fight the good fight of faith
Hoping in you to gain eternal life in heaven....

You ask me what I was?
Meek solitude sustained in armored mantle
a wave of movement never moving onward
a shade lost in humanity’s shadows
and nothing … before you...

There once was a golden goose named Alice
Who lived with the King in his Royal Palace
The Careless King tossed down
His armored knight and gown
Poor Alice was found flatter than stale Guinness...

Without you 
I would be an iceberg
Frosty & cold 
A steel foundation 
A mighty fortress 
A vault at the bank
A self imposed prison
An armored heart 
A concrete soul
With no admittance allowed...

You are my Days my glowing bright Daze

You are my Night my shining armored Knight

You are my Son my daily rising Sun

You are my Peace you are the final Piece 

Every Day is Father’s Day...

A funny thing happened to me at the saloon last night
This dude approached me and asked me if I was up for a fight
Answered “sure, why not”
Punched him on the snout
Last time he'll try funny business with an armored knight...

It's esthetic yet pathetic,
from the garden 
in her brain,
Which she never,ever
waters,
she keeps waiting
for the rain,
of affection and protection
from a shiny armored knight,
so her garden all has 
wilted
in the burning
mourning
light....

I guarded my love
a prisoner in chains
armored in Pain 

Your love waits in the distance --

A precious gem 
illuminates warmth
of the heart 

Your eyes burn Deep
the passion of oneness

In a waking dream
the destiny of our souls
forever one
The one…...

with a trembling hands
                                 mentally armored for strength - 
                                 the death's love story

Repugnant Pugilist,

A Lummox dim with a rubble fist. 

Rock to Roc’s Feather.

A Stalwart Rook to blotted weather. 

An over armored Savant slain by adhoc ether. 

Hands empty without effort. 

That sweet and Sable Rune.

Opening the Gates of Nether.

 Fire and Light, Elijahs Creed
 Of Lightning and Thunder, Progeny
 Riding Ruby Wings that Gleam Supreme
 Armored in Faith, Grace, and Majesty

 Feet Shod in Gold and Fleece
 Head High, Thus must be Elijahs Steed...

Guns are firing
bombs in the air
people are dying
it's just not fair.

Tanks and armored weapons
injuries so severe
we will never truly know what happened 
during these awful years.

Now the war is over
crosses all around
the fields are calm and peaceful
poppies lay on the ground....

FALLING AWAY FROM ME

detaching I fade far flung from
my body
a walking corpse dissociating
my mind
trying to pursue yet suspended
in time

a nowhere place of nonentity
so numb
forcing snapbacks triggers whiplash
a crack
shielded by hollowed armored shell
I fall

,Center>The streets are ridge-backed and growling.
City lights glare like outflanked samurai.
Your thin hand dices words
into sideswipes.
Whiskey blooms in your orchid mouth.
I am led to where a lust
is armored, and snorting to be free.
Stories groom our hungers.
The night camps
in a small neon room....

(Poetry Form: Divine - not included in list of selections)

The clock stood still in shock, refused to chime;
an old alarm designed to warn,
as sneak thief scrambled through
the window frame.

He thought he'd planned a perfect flawless crime;
they caught him in the early morn
when armored men in blue,
the coppers, came....

Listen to poem:

(Another childhood poem.)



Filaments tightly woven,

a chrysalis cradles me,

deflects the dangers;

it is an armored womb,

bright and hard.

Loosely woven,

a web imprisons me;

struggles snare me firmly

in these threads.

What weaves this armor

and this trap?

It is I --

I am the spider,

and the potential

butterfly....

Lieutenant General Georgie Patton also known as "Old Blood and Guts"

   Was so eccentric and egotistical that many people thought him nuts!

      His armored divisions delivered relief to the beleaguered at Bastogne,

         But to hear him tell it, you'da thunk the SOB had done it alone!

Worry and strife 
  never really leave

They just change 
  direction and form

When one plant’s watered
   another wilts

Your heart no longer safe
   once torn

Trouble that’s papered 
  over with wealth

Set fire 
  by money and fame

Is a sadness you try 
  so hard to lose

Hiding re-armored 
  —and waits to reclaim

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2018)...

This marine creature grew to as much as ten meters in length.
It had jaws that displayed amazingly quick strength.
A heavily armored fish that thrived in the primeval seas,
this predator could make mince meat out of its adversaries.
All members of this species are extinct and have gone away.
We should be thankful this deadly fish does not live today.

Wear
thy breast
thin, now rest
thy cheeks rosy
upon my armored chest
smashing the headboard, tea cozy
Now we play ring around the rosary
In me embedded, stroking silk strands of my hair
Thoughts growing so hazy, day dream dozy 
Your fiery eyes keep me toasty
now roaming kisses quest
our lips mosey
mounting crest
Last test
Bare
----------
This is a Diatelle....

From watered womb burst 
From poppied fields sprung 
I Comeforth 
With Penance scarred skin 
Fines of blood given 
My keeping bondage loosened 
I Comeforth 
Standing attentive in destiny's battle 
Fighting fates torrential onslaught 
I Comeforth 
With armored soft and wounded heart 
A soldiers eye for dying 
I Comeforth 
In the spring of new growth 
Reticent tears of rebirth 
I Cry 
As I 
Comeforth...

You can put your trust in Man
to protect you,
if you want to ...

But my mama didn’t raise 
no fool
Daddy didn’t raise
no dummy too

I hid my precious, sparrow life
in the secret pavilion
of God’s refuge

I placed my bosom trust
completely in the LORD

That’s the honest to God truth — 
Unwise bullets 
can’t harm an armored soul, 
whose infant cries are prayer foolproof...
