Listen to poem:
on the cusp
poised precarious, point perched,
lies threshold brink verge,
the tipping-point pivot to,
rise/fall from grace.
But is not strength weakness, and weakness, strength?
For water, while formless, is invincible
While the tallest tower will suffer
the highest fall from grace.
Words of wisdom caress my face…
Returning from the fall from grace…
She is here, standing before you without a trace…
Patiently wanting you to discover this place…
In a field of bloody flowers,
Stood a lonely boy.
Over him a flower towers;
Eyes him like a toy.
He tries to cry,
To run and shout,
But the red sky,
Has no way out.
He cries;
He calls;
He dies;
He falls.
Form:
Houses and people
in disrepair...
Memories reduced to
the dust of despair...
Distorted reality...
Confirmed disbelief,
Subjective fall from grace...
Times of life, times of lace...
Hover about this gloomy place.
A chasm divides us from spiritual realms
Bringing inner conflict as we spiral into chaos
Yet the divide gets deeper with time
Shadowy preachers spew twisted sermons
Steep is the fall from grace

An upward trajectory.....
The lows haunt the dreams of the believer
Afraid of heights
A fall from grace could shatter one's faith
The downward spiral....
Drinking the liquid that never quenched thirst
A currently reality
fortune is reversed
hog-tied and thrown off a bridge ~
once was riding high

They fall from grace to grass,
aged, scorched and dehydrated,
fluttering away further
the vanity of previous
greenness and elevated times,
reminding us of the fragility
of life,
the futility of striving to hang on
when time is up.
A gentle breeze
on golden face,
eyes dark,
like ace of spades.
Your footprint in sand
I touch,
a wanting more potent
than lust.
Your hair that dances
in time,
to the ebbs and flows
of tide.
A smile I long to kiss
and taste,
to have one chance
I'd fall from grace.
Branding the wayward
as a perpetrator of evil
let us pause a moment
to examine origin of sin
knowing not love and light
is the cause not ignorance
resulting in fall from grace
all that then is required
is to show the roadmap
that such souls may awake

Through the looking glass
An undoubtedly strange place
Gold doesn't always glitter there
On their glory days
Film stars are festooned
And paraded around town
When they fall from grace...
Even once, they're hog-tied
And thrown off a bridge!

Ethereal plane decides fate
Prior soul agreement
Upon earth, let not love abate
We’re soul luminescent
Fall from grace, no disgrace
See God now, face to face
Cave of heart, sacred place
Free from karmic chain
Ethereal plane

Winter follows hard ~
upon Fall’s green(s)leaves
each soul in as identity
be it manifest as form or not
as long as it behaves as an ego
feeling incomplete nurtures desires
thus presupposes separation from God
which is delusion borne of ignorance
representing the human condition
spoken of as our fall from grace
redeemed by purifying heart
A maelstrom fell from the heavens,
Dark clouds a limbo of vertigo,
As the blind lives hurried to avoid its wrath.
Great angel of the sky,
Must these clouds cry to watch you die?
Not one great grey could hold such tears,
Humbly joining in the fall from grace,
As it lands upon a traveler’s face.
Those at my behest…
know that limits persuade
and words orphaned alone
into emptiness hide
with the snow passing on
a new robin will sing
each breath left forgotten
until spoken aloud
as memories fall from grace
—in the silence unnamed
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2019)
Fallen.
Down into the cold dark morass.
Earthborn once more.
Discarded.
From the warmth of your secret fires.
Out of grace.
Into the wilderness.
Love no longer mine to give.
Nor yours to have.
Requiem.
Into a labyrinth scene.
With shades of your face sketched in reverting dreams.
I bask in the warmth
Of heavens glow
Gentle raindrops
Bathe my soul
Daemons retreat
For where they came
To no longer point
Their fingers of blame
A healing light
As the sun shines down
Lighting my path
While I’m homeward bound
Rising up
From my fall from grace
I have arrived
At a sacrosanct place
Racing through the night
Our hearts must take flight
As the beasts give chase
We flee from our fall from grace
Consumed by sin
We desperately ignore the evil within
The devil lurks near, preying on our fear
The apex of insanity becomes uncomfortably clear
We are young and we are mislead
We are apathetic and we are dead
A moment in the blink of eye,
When angel statues fall from grace
Flaming from the steel blue sky.
A moment in the blink of eye
The trailing embers wail and sigh;
Draw a portal that will efface.
A moment in the blink of eye
When angel statues fall from grace.

In one swift stay
A solid say
In one swift stride
A message rides
In one swift breeze
A better squeeze
In one swift turn
A hustle burns
In one swift touch
More speaks as such
In one swift show
The rancid flow
In one swift pace
The fall from grace

When did this ice age happen
how did I miss the signs
when one upon another we fall
so cold in our designs.
When callous hearts forget to feel
how can love bloom and grow
when I to you and you to me
so many insults are thrown.
When caring is the victim
how sad this time and place
when what is gained is paramount
so far the fall from grace.
(Stoic)
L ove is life ,with give and take .
O pinion split on how to share
V endetta's venom will always break
E fforts made, in goodwill-care .
I dols that we venerate
S oon lost, with time's uncaring chase ,
R eveal their medicore state
E arly , in their fall from grace .
A ll things come to those who feel
L ife's warm call... yes.. love IS real .
I'm relaxing on
A beach with no sand,
Marveling at an ocean
With no water
Under a sky with no stars
I'm relaxing
In my mind,
Or what's left of it,
I think it likely,
It's just a tiny bit
Of what it once was
Did I, in fact,
Fall from grace?
Insult someway,
The human race?
Oh, who cares,
Let it be,
What matters most,
Is what I
think of me.
