until it halts,
and then, like a goliath,
climbs aboard,
and to the solider whispers,
peace.

Where on earth should a girl wander?

The die is cast
Why worry? Goliath yonder!

Goliath stood up straight and tall
But David knew that he would fall
Goliath was stoned
And everyone groaned
His shoelace tripped him after all!

There once was a voice that took flight,
I chased after prepared for a fight,
we fiddled with fickle
and stumbled a little
then scribbled with all of my might.

goliath frog throws his tummy around
rainforest is where he is often found
snapping up shellfish blue
consuming littler frogs too
slurping up insects with nary a sound

There once was a diver called Trish,
Who met an enormous jewfish.
She was dwarfed by its head,
And then, drooling, she said,
‘I’d like to see you on my dish.’

I get up at sun rise daily
Ready for garden work
A hoe on my shoulder
Cutters and rake in my hands
And gum boots in my feet
But with Goliath at the gate
The courtyard I cannot leave
And hunger is my daily bread

Do you find yourself
under those stones that you’ve thrown
Pummeled with self-hatred
forever alone
Looking up in delirium
Goliath parades
Blinding your vision
—a gravesite charade

David has become Goliath
Goliath has become David
the world is spinning
out of control
nuclear bullets
battle paper butterflies
The indigenous as usual
suffer indignation
history spins in circles
again and again

Like a beacon shining with eternal bliss
The victorious underdog will always exist
As the true diehard David and Goliath fan
Resourceful as the incredible shrinking man
Motivated by lack of respect and esteem
Never saying die and fulfilling the dream

Placed by God in a
Babling brook, five stones
David took, to fight
Goliath giant man
David shephard lad
Five smooth stones by
God commanded
Make your mark as
God intended
Running fast
One in sling
Listen hear
That stone
Singing
Bling

David and Goliath
I stood before the behemoth,
(aware of my dimension)
and cast my eye upon his intention
and feared not, for the Lord is my protection.

Epigram
The Goliath reaches deep underground,
grabbing a hand full of coal
Crushing the black rock in his huge maw,
polishing it to gleaming diamonds.
Flinging the treasure into the ebon sky.
So at night we can look heavenward,
and enjoy a million stars
in a midnight sky.

Does corruption blind intelligence,
does greed devour truth
Will intention cast the final vote,
its motives never moot
As David slew Goliath,
Lilliputians lie in wait
To bind and tie an Angels wings
—the Devil at the gate

Natures sweet angel has arrived
metal eye that doesn't discriminate
invisible warrior jousting with a giant
slowing the destruction of earth's heart..
David slaying Goliath with sling and rock
from the cool-cool lungs of a bramble God
We're always six feet from our prayers

The typical becomes so cynical
Silently the moon lulls me to sleep
With a celestial song
In my dreams I'm so naive
I'm not myself
Unafraid & strong
I lead an army into battle
I slay Goliath with just a stare
I fly with invisible wings
While the muse of music sings
Her song to victory.

When Bayt lahm guttured Bait lehem,
no bagels and baguettes are baked.
As hummus and labneh melting down,
prickly grapes grown in Golan Heights,
Awakened Elchanan terminated Goliath.
Raising Rachel tribes of nomadic life,
goes to a mysterious hypogeum.
The underground chamber,
forefather of Hebron and Nablus.

Parallelismus Membrorum
Titan Goliath challenged young David to a floggin'
But David with his slingshot beaned him on the noggin!
Dave viewed the carcass and was heard to say, "Nothin' to it!"
His envious brethren said, "Yeah! 'Twas just a lucky hit!"

Goliath*, mighty giant
Against young David he was defiant
With God’s strength triumphantly prevailing
Goliath, smitten by David; forever in defeat, ailing.
*1Samuel 17:4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

Goliath intention
Glitters within reach on
Grecian hallowed ground; the
Girl forged by sweat and chalk
Greets the beam with pristine
Gainer flip, ready to
Grace the world with her feat.
