Death in comparison,
a covetous dispatch
Jealousy reflected,
its courtiers attack
An emperor left naked,
his crown a vacant throne
Jesters flee the castle
—as envy sits alone
(Villanova Pennsylvania: December, 2016)
The jester has a foolish air;
he leaps about and juggles fruit.
While wearing motley, hung with bells,
he'll tumble, caper, dance, and sing.
The courtiers are unaware;
behind his act, he's quite astute.
He gathers secrets which he tells
to no one but the reigning king.
Deifying themselves,
the scientists disprove
with their tools
the existence of God
To sit on a throne
artificially made
the Creator to them
falsely shod
They loudly decry
as their courtiers boast
about how powerful
their laws have become
While built into their structure
a flaw starts to crack
their self-glory
—a darkening sun
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Dream of you always
Can’t stop thinking about you
We need to meet soon
Let us explore each other again
Between those fine satin sheets
