Psalms
Holy writ - Inspired script,
Psalms divine and witty,
Fills the righteous with pearly mirth
And promises wrath to the uncouth,
Taught me aphorisms pithy-
And guides me along the right paths!...

Religion
Wrapped in clothes of holy writ,
Evil wears a sacred guise,
Shielded by its faithful flock,
Fooled by decades of comforting lies

Outside its hidden cloister it parades,
The naked ego cloaked in robes of white,
While deep within the dark it forges chains,
To trap the hearts and minds of happy slaves....

Listen to poem:
One nation under all
founded for a single cause
this is the mantra that resides
in the minds of simple folk

this passion above all else
so say the pundits to themselves
the holy writ applied across
imaginations in the now

this becomes the fervent lie
by the ones who reside
in the boxes built with walls
from the delusion of the mind

uniformity becomes the joke
denying nature of its course
reality will have a say
disallowing the fever dream....

Premium Member Convictions and Visuals
The difference between
the carnal and the spiritual,
has as much to do with
convictions as does visuals.

The Carnal's favorite epithet:
I will believe in it when I see it.
Living as a mere fleck in the universe
his chances of vision grow steadily worse.

While Spiritual cling to holy writ:
I will see it because I believe it.
With the number of faiths available,
all options, it seems, are on the table.



NOTE: Another oldie that I've never showed before ......
