A downy clay near
fingertips. I ascend light
to meet darkness.

An ambush memory.
Remember your name ?
No, I don’t know me.

Gambler raises
the stakes to win his dirt
from golden nails.

They took Him down from the cross,
Joseph,both Mary's,mourned their loss,
From any angle,it was 'finished'-
In dead marble,the moment preserved,
Yet by living power,in Him, we're cured.

Slumbering downward 
Our temporay light.
Interwoven like doubts in dreams are we
Faces, finished and unfinished, in the glorious fright
Of art and its truth; death and rebirth; 
Of heavy flesh 
And shifting winds.
The Deposition
May arise from within....

Lord, Agony knows no bounds
of sex or sect.

Flesh can not
hold the sainted heart
or stop the fall of death.

Lord, for agony knows no bounds
of sex or sect.

And yet joy, also,
knows no bounds and Earthly death
may yet bring its get.

Alter ego you
Assailed shall laugh in the end
For refracted light

The mirror unveils
The face, the face unveils the heart
Love unveils the man

Let them twin us wrong
I dance the rhythm not the song
Mirrors feast on light.

Let us love us still
As one, and to one be true
Surrendered in will....

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!



For Raul Moreno's contest-The Deposition by Michelangelo

Do not snatch away the
clouds in disdain.
The snowy peaks were burning.

If you do not run with
the moon,
I will not blink.

Unclosing the chapter
a chill develops when
a harbinger of mayhem –

comes to my house.
A graphic testimony
will give you the details-

of disintegrating sheen.
The Neanderthal man used
to make a flute from the bird bone.

If roses are read is it a book;
Is violence purple;
Would that be rage;
Bruised deposition;
Flowers covered chicken;
Spicy blazing sun;
Big warm religion;
Delicate conditions;
Early morning treasure;
High blood pressure;
If roses shook it would be the wind;
At start no beginning nor end;
Extra
Extra

Roar goes the monstrous winds of the west 
Whooshing against the coast 
The Blustery waves battling against the sails and boats 
 
Surfers loving the gigantic waves 
Hydraulic action, 
Attrition and Deposition 
You name it 
Gives us a wonderful coast 
Beautiful and peaceful 
 
The lovely breeze, 
Green hills, 
And the attractive landscape 
Make us fall in love with the countryside....

From any angle,it was 'finished'-
In dead marble,the moment preserved,
Yet by living power,in Him, we're cured.

Vanity!
Vanity!
Vanity!

All i see is vanity!
Wether i cease to breath
or i go on breathing
all there be is vanity!

Whether i choose to write
or i withhold my words
in my thought from my pen to book,
all there be is vanity.

Whether i choose to live 
or i embrace the golden path
all i see is vanity.
All there be is vanity.

Vain is you!
Vain is me!
Vain is the world we live
the deposition of God in us
is the point we hold.
For all is vanity....

Crafted in marble
Over a period of years
Discarded by the master
For it's impurity smear

Newly down from the cross
Lay Jesus Christ
In the arms of faith
Thrice

Nicodemus
And Mary Magdalene
With the Virgin Mary
Complete the scene

This sculptured beauty
In rebuild recommission
Completed by Calcagni
Is Michelangelo's
The Deposition
