Idols

idols become gods
 leaving churches desolate
 like ancient ruins
 rising without glory
 but still reaching for heaven

Song Mates

Cicadas
like Maronite chants—
night churches,
tree numbers,
heat August more than hellfire;
without kinking wings.

To All the Churches

Did Jesus, his disciples, or other prophets, offer any money to churches?
Or just secrets of God.
Which is more valuable.

Cross Chewer

3 black churches 
turned into smolder
a flint toothed ogre 
munches a wooden cross
in the shadows
of his black soot mind

Pig Eon Aka Rock of Ages

A bird like a pigeon or dove
will always choose food over love
They poop from their perches
On people in churches
Excluding Nun of the Above

Fox Flash Fax

Donald Trump has just claimed that God
Orchestrated election fraud
So churches should close
Since everyone knows
The "God We Trust" gave Trump the nod

Pull Pit Perspective

The churches are filling with dust
Alms boxes are turning to rust
Congregations are sad
Priests and preachers are mad
WEEKS pass without citing a bust!

Gone To Churches

Gone to churches
Now gone
Pray I God
Your mercy to send
To calm the night
Tremors and
Terrible thoughts
And show the shooters
There is another way
Than at all costs

Looking For God

i go to the churches
i find only the devil
i go to the the river
he's no there ether
i walk by the lake
still can't find him
i look everywhere
to find him in a mirror

Churches

Forget your churches… they are cages for God
That capture only those…with hearts at odd
Looking for salvation…after a life of lies
Soon to be captive… by the prayers inside

Small Town

Born in a small town,
Rain never let us down,
A pub, lots of churches,
Narrow minds did not disturb us,
Now it is busy suburbia, you see,
Come a long way, since its infancy!

Church Culture

All the baboons of the churches scream in my blood,
And all the wild hot devils of the churches whine in my
soul.
Frankly, I fear this culture ---
So callous,
So tough,
So frigid.

given gold medal by Charles X
inspired by villages, churches,

from East Bergholt
who took sketching trips

An Erupting Volcano

Mau Lau
An erupting volcano
throwing out volcanic bombs
boulders larger than elephants

Mau Lau
the reason we do not build
schools, churches, homes or stores
at the base of a volcano

Eye of Faith

But can this eye, into
The invisible
Not so nonsensical
Truth of things, outline.

Have they, of the churches
Retained, for vision
What of the child's, frowned on
Did mystic incline?

Arson In the Churches

Arson in the churches,
Who set up that service?
Bombs for God?
Wicked and odd!
Faith shall survive,
As we are alive,
Fire within,
Never growing dim.
God does not deserve,
Arson in the church.

Christmas

Children love this period
Carols flow through the night
Call to celebrate as 
Christ the savior is born
Churches render praises
Cakes served by mothers as
Crowd gather at fun parks .

Trump's Legacy

Trump's "Them against Us" is a curse
Which only has made matters worse
As violence rules
In churches and schools
With patients attacking their nurse!*

*65% of nurses reported attacks
last year

Uncle Didi

Uncle Didi stays in abbeys and churches.
Ministers, nuns, monks gather.
Group of seniors, veterans lurches.
He was never a minister -- a butcher.
Behind the church is a shop,
  where he used to work and chop.

Hold Me Tight

churches make me mad as hell
preaching turns me out of mind
war is around we dont know

hold me tight dont let me go
hold me close dont let me leave
then the church bell struck thrice

My Faith

My faith is not in religion
Or denominational churches too
My faith is not in any good work
No matter what I do.

My faith is in my Saviour
Who shed His blood for me
My faith is in the finished work
The work at Calvary.

Gossip

Hollywood secrets
who’s sleeping with who
not just Hollywood
number one question
most Americans

read those tabloids
mostly gossip
in our churches
and in our streets

truth no more
tell us lies
we’ll believe

the facts
boring

lies

A thought, before we go far away

God, you should know
that we,
the many
ordinary people,
will never 
let you die !

Poor and sick,
abandoned in churches,
alone,
without anyone,
we, 
will never leave you!

Without God
the universe is empty…
without any purpose!

Chainsaw People

Noisy mankind 
Riding mower machines.
Rip the cord. Rev the engine.

Bang the nail, throw debris.
Point the blower, louder, faster.
No one heard the angelus ring.

Everyone forgot to pray
The churches fell
And came the last day.
