she saw a faithless groom...

Power to
Feed and clothe
The hungry lost...

They say I can't write about God
Nor how faithless the saints have trod
A Saint I ain't
I lack white paint
But you should see my fishing rod*

Relish jealous
Constant fetish
Backend catching
Missing subject
Constant breakup
Faithless what's up
Distant cousin
Dirty dozen

Nebulous angels vacant worth
Foresee no fortunes adulate
Dawn's desecrated, faithless birth
Supine mother to stillborn fate

Quiz form mind keep
How deep it is
To understand.

Reason covers
Human made pride
Defense a crime.

Verge of danger
Force to call God
Short of faithless.

True success comes
When soul is save
None can compare....

Years span
Like breaking ripples around heaven,
By a huffing, winded fan—

Soon
Cloud expressions on the sky,
Long ago's faithless spaces, like new—

Crime
Drift lines
Time

Years span—
Cloud expressions on the sky,
Time...

I cry less for the hungry, more for the junkies
I weep less for the poor, more for the dull

Give a penny to the helpless, a slap to the faithless
Those who has sold their names and hold for gains

I rather be a maggot than a bigot...

the ceiling
over hope
      collapses
            t  r  a  p  p  i  n  g
the faithless
in the heaping rubble
of suffocating
despair.

render to Caesar
what is his,
lost faith hoovers
try to believe
leading a spotless life
bottle half full
don't forget your soul
burning midnight candles
pledge your touch
a chagrin of a chance
leadeth with me
to a challenged place

The point of no return comes suddenly,
and without a whit of subtlety,
saying: I told you at the start
that blaggard has a darkened heart,
and no amount of rosy coloring 
will stop his faithless plundering;
and still you go running back for more!...

The Willow


Rhododendron,
Baobab,
Methuselah.
Steadfast. Unbent. Pliable.
Wind. Water. Fire.
Arrow. Sword. Brick. 
Cupid’s missile.
Weeping Willow.
Rigid. 
Frigid.
A ladder. 
The tower.
Faithless Leap.
The salt water stings. 
Weeping Willow....

How can one be or changed to see
Everything you want, change ones belief
And all to praise the change you've made
Very faithless, selfish and so inhumane 
Every soul that you have tried to change
Nothing wrong has done, but called our God...by a different name!...

Earth slowly brings new light from night
Turning to face the day
Orchid sky reflects upon still water
Sparkling water gems
Birds wake calling softly 
As new day is born
Rising sun gives joy to Rising son
This Paschal morning
Bringing hope to a faithless world…....

searching forward, dying, waning
looking for someone worth saving
always stopping, never trying
infinitely circumscribing
flowing forward, back, and forth
frivolously seeking scores
inward, outward, all around
jumping up at every sound
lost while searching, price is steep
now, i lay me down to sleep...

What if this was my last brew, blow,
last blathering scribbling,
unfinished, tragically abandoned
because of a faithless unforeseen?

Would I be content, or bent backwards?
What good would any high stilts do me then
and how many blind mice
must be interned
within a never ending last breath?...

Many flakes
It takes to make 
A snowman 
Little sisters
Little brothers
Make no mistake
Flakes melt and cake
And some are flakier
Than others
The silent fake
For it’s own sake
May replicate
One then another
And float to ground
Without a sound
To lie unfound
A faithless
Lover

The earth trembled and all felt fear,
Some murmured a prayer.
Most ran out. oft tumbling the stair.
Faithless led to despair.

Apathy led to bars,
Others caused some crashed cars,
Most escaped to watch stars.

Sin dissembled.
The earth trembled.

While my eyes were watching God,
All hell was breaking loose,
Refusing to be contained,
Overpowering emotion
Until nothing remained,
Not even the notion.
While my eyes were watching God,
I was blindsided by reality,
Subjected to the formality
Of the faithless,
Leaning on my faith less and less....

Awesome Faith
Ask and you will maybe see,
Seek an you will bloody find,
Listen, you might bloody hear,
Shut your eyes, and you are blind,
Visualize and it appears,
Comes forth, out of your mind,
Close your mind,
It dissapears,
Faithless always comes behind,
Now aint that queer  :)

Faithless are those who would leave at sunset,
for there is greater strength in hope at night,
then there ever can be in hope in the light.
Yet all who dwell in the light, outside of grief,
will be faced sorrow they cannot mend.
and never could they comprehend,
the torrent of wind that moves the leaf....

I waited for the ray of light
As would a silkworm for the cocoon to break
For your warmth would break into my mould
And set me free as would a butterfly
But the light never came because night was too long
The cocoon withered and the silkworm died
So it was with my stony heart
That doubted God
And fell apart....

My motivation for leaving rests squarely on your faithless shoulders
it's your flippant smile, your quiet disregard
the devalued way you make me feel
It's the many nights spent alone resting my head on your lies
the callousness of your hands, the chill of your touch
sending shivers down my spine
finally the goodbye you won't say...
