You Ain't got pity
Just imagine if you were a screwdriver
manufactured at craftsman tool factory
and you spent your whole life in a tool box tray
never to be used jb49

Jumped down to save the battle hardened pearl made from heaven's dazzling greatness
Evenly spread and crucified the serpent of ocean's darkness
Uplifted the ships of dazzling light he crafted to be heaven's brightness

The snowy mountain of gray
Reflected in the icy lake
Almost like a picuture
Stillness being a canvas
Spring flowers painted by the artist
The master craftsman gifted
Greatest teacher and revealer
Of art depicted by world's nature

I do not know?
Human life a cobweb
each human a piece of thread
no thread is greater in value
no thread is lower in value
all woven to trap vitality
for mutually shared life
for meaningful existence
under the watchful eyes
of the chief craftsman

only the
lord knows
my situation
thus
he
is my
personal tailor
only
he can measure
and
address
the
holy spirit
received in my soul
and
what a pure craftsman is He
that is my personal tailor

Life -
multi
faceted
like diamonds.
Rough around the edge
potential unclear. In
the hands of a craftsman cut
and ground to reveal character
clarity and color. Glittering
facets balanced to reflect its brilliance.

My Grandpa was a craftsman.
He would measure all the wood,
with poor eyesight, best he could.
He would make the cabinets and drawers,
even when his old hands had sores!
My Grandpa was a craftsman.

There was a craftsman named Handy
Who used to a craftsman dandy
everyday day he'd make
a craved wooden stakes
and boxes shaped like hearts to hold candies

Limerick
You crawl on the dry earth
Eating the dust and dirt
You live in the dark pit
You prowl in the wasteland
Murdering foreign cubs
You’re a king of nothing
Serpents, see your craftsman
Lions, see your craftsman

A craftsman of words
Not a voice to others
Says what he thinks
Whether it's right or wrong
The voice of his own private thoughts
If it passes
Thru the poet's head
Then that's what
It represents as truth
The whole truth
He thought this
Whether, it's true or not
He thought it

Naked, abused, humiliated
Crumpled human shell, lifeless and deflated
Holy spirit risen to Godly ministry
Beyond the grave and dust
Forever, majestic ruler
Satan crushed, Christ Exalted!

A warrior can be an artist,
but can an artist go to war
Can the craftsman ever breathe the fire,
that tempered the blade he forged
The warrior-poet not the poet-warrior,
the difference in the score
All fury do his words inspire
—to bridge the liars fjord

Old painted cupboard of blue
In the corner yonder stand
Craftsman maker never knew
What good use would come his hand
Made to last and work to do
One board wide was solid wood
Hand forged nails of iron hold
West oer mountains wagon stood
Prairie home find I've been told
Now at rest for show as should

A warrior can be an artist,
but can an artist go to war
Can the craftsman ever breathe the fire,
that tempered the blade he forged
The warrior-poet, not the poet-warrior,
the difference in the score
All fury then his words inspire,
—to bridge the liars fjord

Delusional scimitars
festive daggers
soft balalaika
captive sword ...
Mandolins,
hot nights
harps, wine
poison,...
dangers
daggers
Banjo and
boldness,
gypsy waltz,
ruby joy ...
I desire
of life,
The beauty,
arpeggios
Utopia...
the art
for art to fight ...
be craftsman
of delights
live life in
complete
Bohemia......

He mended shoes for a mere pittance
His payment was your smile
A craftsman from another age
Pride in his work his going wage
One morn his light was off, his door closed
His customers wept, understanding
Never again would they see his like
The call of his craft daily demanding…

Rhyme
Twiddle, twiddle,
Work and whittle.
You say with wood
You have to fiddle.
Building cabinets
And turning bowls
The saw roars
And the lathe rolls.
A simple piece
Of wood we see.
You have the sight
Of what can be.
A piece of nothing
So lovingly held.
But with your tools
You soon meld.
And from your heart
Wonders appear.
Works of art
That we hold dear.

encyclopedic
photographic memory
fast fast computer
that is not genius
it is not sentience but
an equivalence
teaching machines skill
makes us not equals
but craftsman and tools
could data invent
originate ideas
create new art forms
its equivalence
individual being
people are that too
so then it's aware
of self and world as mirrors
but not my equal
stan sand
