who wanted to live in a palace
he tried everything
to be crowned king
and drink from a golden chalice...

Reach to cup clear mountain wine
Earthly communion

and i did 
say that

from your chalice lips
not a sip

Speaketh not goodbye
but tell of our hearts I yearn,
joyus love we sipped
till the chalice overflows
then once more a sweet hello.

I once had a dog I named Alice.
I built her a house like a palace.
She was just the sweetest.
Not really elitist. 
But still drank her grog from a chalice....

The chalice you drink from
is leaden with spite 
and the poison is eating you up 

Step down from your throne
where you languish alone
and sup from a healthier cup...

Bile-blood
Drip drops
On the
BLacktop
From my mouth,
Christened like
The cup
During communion-
This pavement
Shall be my
Chalice
I guess
Even asphalt
Can be a
Heavenly view....

While they're drinking tea inside the palace
Outside they regard Trump with some malice --
   Sadiq Khan he insults
   Trump's a childish adult --
Turns the contents of his chalice callous...

There was a woman with a heart of malice,
drowning her sorrows within a chalice
Weep not, brighter days are ahead
Truth sinks in as she lies in bed 
The loud cries of her name echo, "Alice"?...

Trump Being Calice

Trump has been crusty and also chalice;
Seems to be smothered with much malice;
He burns bridges;
Tips over fridges;
Deadly as poison in a competitor's chalice.

from the chalice in your hands
pour out your life to me
with this fluid essence
award my heart the potency
to conceive
the truth & light
the center of the sacred rites
of night
& all you are...

Emeka was starving in a lightless land
no passersby bothered to give him a hand.
Crystal tinkles in a nearby palace
wine flows from a silver-encrusted chalice.
Emeka dies alone; purple shall atone....

bluish flowers kissing
the black stones rolling
green tendrils winding
she turns into a rock
of love
virgins are delivering
in the dark corners
they are measuring
the ocean with
the chalice of
blood...

Thrust a dagger into my heart
Thresh me with a flail
Lay me on a bed of thorns
Give me a chalice of hemlock
Burn me on a funeral pyre
Banish me to the Sahara...
And I will only smile,
Because I am in love!...

My cup runneth over
  your chalice half full

The emptiness suspect
  both murky and dull

It shines on the outside
  jewels christened with fire

But to drink from that liquid
  —forever a liar

I'll drink this dark chalice of bitter wine
And let my blood spill on the chosen ground
The blade he holds shall be a slayer of mine
To save you from the treachery I found

One quick lethal blow
One tormenting flash
A taste of the pain
Should we ever part
Harsh poison chalice
Steer far from my lips

Above the Lady's mantle
lay the Angel's trumpet
Fairy wings
on the flower head
& moon dew upon a peacock feather
Belladonna light the candles
unite your brew
& sip from the chalice

the core of one’s soul is his spirit
his spirit can take from the chalice
sips of the promise nectar
rendering the gift of eternal life

the earth beds those who hope
and believes in his words
but for those who hold not
destiny will steer them adrift...
