Short Demonized Poems

Flaws and faults blame each other.
Demonized like Succubus-Incubus.
Philautia, amour propre cursed lover.
Garden fountains, tears and mucus.
Morally peaceful dignity of lover.
Love is aloof and leaves the circus....

Between you and I
Nothing has changed
Really.....

These confines we share
Brothers too

Columns and columns
Of phallic glass totums
Piercing the freedoms above
Business is a rapist fiend
Of love

The demonized heavens.

Who am I to judge brother?
I chose to live here...

Spawn of Satan

Behold the demonized beasts, Satan's spawn!

Chained to the gates of Hell for all Eternity

Eyes of fiery coals and drooling mouths agape.

They roar in anger to sate their hunger with

                             YOU!

Will it be?

People swarm, a list to see
the winners list, it's never me
whose the best, and at the top
and whose to write another flop
approval sought and recognized
or is this winner demonized
now at the top they can only fall
a just dessert or curtain call
answer the call and face the strife
or just sit back and waste your life






for the "I Just Can't Win" contest...

Scars left behind Imprints ,
Memories I held, 
A cosmic tale
Where art thou
Whirling black empty space 
Nothing to replace
Masks to wear
No joy to retain
Dreams of repetitive endless spinning reunions
Mirrored by cracks that bear your name
No shame in love 
Trapped in your smile 
Eyes that burned souls 
Entranced and captured 
Demonized your name
No shame in love
I bled for it
I have its Tattoos...

What worth poetic words
Of grandeur so sublime
Inimitable verse
True scholars recognize

What worth poetic words
So roundly demonized
Which flagellate teen nerves
Inure unmolded minds

What worth poetic words
If less than five percent
Have read and said, not heard
The meaning or intent

What worth poetic words
If told in simple rhyme
Elitists grow perturbed
But, OH, the rank and file

Make simple poets smile...

If you were much lionized
Later no more recognized
Or by some men demonized
Would it leave you traumatized,
Judge it a foul play dramatized;
Have the actors stigmatized:
As Satan characterized?

You must not try the dreadful:
To fight them or other frightful!
Put up you should the easeful
That makes painless the painful…

Your arch smiles now the stylized,
Your movement systematized,
Time for Apps digitalized, 
And once again ways modernized…...

AGAINST all odds,
By God's mercy and grace,
Here I now stand.

MALIGNED, demonized,
and criticized,
But here I stand.

EXCEPTIONALISM has weakened;
My moral leadership has waned,
But here I stand.

RIGHTEOUSNESS holds my hands,
And God's mercy embraces me;
So here I stand.

IMPERFECT and flawed,
but here I stand.

Christ is exalted in spite of 
my adversities. Yet I stand.

ASSURANCE remains through faith
in God; and here, I forever stand.

At last found a soul sent from above
Finally working at a job that I love
For a short time the ride has been great
Alas nothing in life goes at perfect rate
By my own hand demonized by offspring
Heart slowly decaying and unwilling to operate
Terrorizing body and soul with an ugly sting
Under the knife - heart, body and soul
To mend what’s broken is the goal
If I should not make it through let it be known
I was happy for a moment or two
Nothing in life is perfect it’s only on loan...
