Lots of things simply aren’t my fault
         But then, some are…clearly by default.

Fault Lines

Justification
of illusion
the surface
unsure

Each step
poorly taken
new death
— to allure

Fault?

Fault?

Forgiveness forgets
Education remembers
Proceed with caution.

It's Not God's Fault

I
cling
to
anxiety
then
wonder
why 
my jaw
is 
tight
and
there
are
knots 
in 
my stomach

self made disaster

                              inner dialogue too loud

                                    to see the light

PLUMBING FAULT

A rather daring young plumber
Worked in the nude one hot summer.
An old lady complained
And so he was arraigned
Which was a bit of a bummer

Mama please do not blame me.
I didn't turn your hair grey,
Nor make it looks so messy.
You're having a bad hair day.

All Putin’s Fault
The man cries
No more wife
No more child
No more family
No more home
No more Ukraine
No more happiness
Huge bomb craters
All Putin’s fault

Blame

Everyone likes to point fingers and
Make sure someone else is
Always at fault, but that can be a 
Lame excuse when the finger pointers share the
Blame.

My Fault

It's all my fault
that I can't even tell you
how much I miss you
I guess it's true
when people say
I am insane, it's wrong thing to do
but all I wanted was to be with you

Have Found Each Fault

Have Found Each Fault

Once you will have found each fault,
Then brought their causes to a halt;
Forever on,
And gone;
God knowingly, gladly surely do exalt.

Assault Was Fault of Cult

Assault Was Fault of Cult


What we did discover about assault,
Was had been created by their fault;
Such a shame;
Them blame;
We came up with a group called cult.

Fault of Tongue

In “Helping hand”
If it’s hand not the man helped 
In Paradise,fault of tongue not Adam, 

If the tongue is burned and punished from the Hell fire all Adam’s people,no doubt go to Paradise!

Fault Line

I repeated consistently,
“It’s all your fault!”
You’ve finally taken the blame,
and taken yourself right out
of my life,
and now, too late I find,
you were right all along.
It was all my fault.

Fault Line

Clothed in fraud,
his disguise supreme

Frightening listeners,
confusion schemed

His world inside,
a caldera waits

Armageddon trembling
—the hour late

Fault

You did it all wrong
where u had to do it right
you left me a big hole
in the middle of my eyes
you left me a broken soul
and a twisted mind
feeling like a walking fault
in life.

Fault Lines

Spiritual draftsmen,
builders of walls
Demanding blind homage,
 tithes of false hope

Fortressing darkness,
ministering fear
Evangelist’s rumbling
—prophets who quake

(Rosemont College: July, 2021)

The gentle beauty of your blooms
are delicate and exquisite to the touch ~
your history's fraught with wrongdoing
but through ne'er fault of your own

Fault Lines

Deeper than love,
deeper than hate
the abyss that surrounds
inclement to wait

Fortune redundant,
heads in the clouds
escape not an option
—lost faces surround
