Short Crusading Poems

Being self-titled
aristocrat pure
Heraldry solemn
 liege a du jour

Knighted in fealty 
 loyalty’s throne
Crusading triumphant
—honor atoned

Beyond the pit of darkness
I will be your crusading light.
Throughout the dismal days
and the endless nights.

My heart is your beacon
just look and you will see.
You are the fairest in the land
and loved by all of me.

I see the inner you
your strength and all your power.
There is no storm that we can't weather
you are my finest hour....

Valentine Attributes 

Crusading dictations
Gathering together
Professing devotions
Arousing emotions

Holiday flourishing
Underlined greediness
Commercial dictated
Composing emotions

Weariness withstanding
Tirelessly pretending
Valentine’s forgotten
Closeted emotions

We work on the Funny Farm
Charlie And I
Different Cartoon Characters everyday
Heckle and Jeckle, Droopy, Captain Caveman
Careening through the day like Homer Simpson
Curiously, where is he?
Oh, he’s around somewhere
Crusading for a better day
Because when all is said and done
We all deserve a Duff Beer at the end of the day...

conquerors and heroes
singing their way to victory
standing solid and unified

glory days ahead of them
chanting Catholic hymns 
guiding ships across the sea

feeling a pride in their accomplishments
feeling validated and uplifted
their conquests honorable and true

incredible journey
ancestral homeland
kissing the earth

chanting their song
reveling in their return
to their wives and women...

For the lost they lead
On the path set by their lord
For the oppressed they bleed
Modern masons marching forward
For the hungry they feed


Brave crusading knights 
Templar invaders
Entrance through Masonic rites
European crusaders
Selfless attitude ignites


Fraternal in one accord 
Brave crusading knights
On the path set by their lord
Constructing gothic sites
From the west marching forward...

In the fog, odyssey
A cheerful adventurer 
Free to be
In dampish autumn weather
Hikes into the hills 
Awesome and deep
Watching the leafage sweep
Whilst song birds spill
Into the alone to peep
The only other sound --the break
Of distant waves and warblers awake
The air is raw, with a cold whisper
Many miles to go before any sleep 
When sweet dreams come cheap
To a crusading journeyer 
Who has promises to keep...

The queen has all the power
while foot soldiers goad the king
though he maybe important
the church ahead of hymn

as too crusading bishops
diagonally move to sing
the knights gallant in battle
before a fall within

the castle's rabble- rousers 
encircled squares are ringed
battles meant to topple towers
to where the fight was hinged

the territory taken
with patience wearing thin
when black on white is shaken
who turns the tide to win?

Some consecrate the carnage
Of war and infantry;
Or the argosy of navy’s
Crusading far at sea.
Battles have their triumph
When the gun is in the glove,
But the pageantry of war
Can't replace that crush called love.

For love holds more than power
It invades the soul within;
While the slaughter of mankind
Is extrinsic in its sin.
So, then my heart must follow
To the one who waits for me,
And the silence that's between us
Gives peace eternally....

 Ascending In Light Towards Mountainous Peaks
 Within Reach, Zion Bound By The Quickening
 Pressing High With Fire Power
 On Holy Ground My Soul Towers,
 Solar Empowered, Sun Born By The Prowess
 Forever Rising, Thriving Like A Lotus Flower
 Divine By The Essence, Wings Ablaze
 Ever Soaring In Fiery Faith,
 Crusading The Valleys Of Truth Within
 Through The Promise Land Of Eternal Wisdom,
 Ever-Forth By Spirit Aflame
 I AM Solar Rexus, The Solar Sage...

Sshhhhh!!!
Wait patiently
I don't want the stars to overhear us,
they'll fuss like phantoms
if they hear the future between us,
you know, I began as a palmist in Persia
the money was good, the hand lines were thick
and the future didn't waste time on lies
but if the king's court caught you crusading, 
if they heard hersey of heresy
from the palmistry you provided to the people
then they'd cut your hands off,
okay, I found the oracle of the Alpha and the Omega...
