Premium Member Inquisition

leave my skin on sight
leave my limbs in their sockets
I believe in your god
life is a tendered spirit
Religion? the Devil's work.

	       What we currently see from radical Islam
                  is inaccurately termed ‘anti-Semitism’

               It actually is fanatical hatred of the Jews
                  as ancient as Abraham ~ it will inevitably lose
Form: Couplet

Premium Member The Petals of Paranoia

She loves me? – She loves me not?
The petals pay – ripped from their stems -
tossed aside in trembling despair.
Innocents – deemed soothsayers – 
victims of love’s inquisition
sacrificed on the godless altar
of insecurity’s insouciant idolatry.

Virgin Queen

Deep in the forest
of a wanton tomorrow
two virgins sullied forth

One but a temptress
from loves inquisition
the other devil sourced

Together they exit
where fear is incepted
to course on different paths

One a diversion
distracting our vision
— the other Queen of Wrath

Galileo Galilei

An avid student of Copernicus
And keen observer of the universe,
The founding father of astronomy,
Philosopher and polymath was he.
Punished by Urban for his heresy,
For his heliocentric the-o-ry,
He appeared before the Inquisition
Which required his public recantation.
Imprisoned, muttered :”and yet it moves”
But this false recantation nothing proves.

Pecuniary On Judiciary

Pecuniary On Judiciary

On Trump we need to have an inquisition,
Which should be each and every position,
Will wear spectacle;
About are skeptical,
And of course on imposed an imposition.

Trump was in way by being a big pain,
Driving each person practically insane;
Being a bother;
Terrible father;
This is why in position will not remain.

Summers Moonlight

Sweet summer set amid moonlight
                              rest young poised perfection.
                                Lying supine among stars
                                 questioning inquisition.
                             Endless night let not be dawn
                          Thou hast dreamt this far too long.

The Inquisition

The spirit of inquisition lives
It suspicions and fears; it never gives
Peace, love and joy are estranged
All those around are deranged.

In the blood, mind and hearts
With each generation it starts
Over and over in mankind
Until in Jesus the Savior they find.

The New Birth miracle He brings
The D.N.A. and mindsets of kings
He, the Creator can recreate
Hope and faith with a beautiful fate.

Grammar

Only the love-birds will know
it was time of inquisition.
There was a lot of prodding in
the neighbourhood.

A voice without sound
was resenting with guilt-virginity
and the bell tolls
for a zero hour.

The entrusted trust was
still moving off the transparency.
Was it not a weird night ?

The newly hatched babies,
jutting out their necks
from their clay homes were
to know the roots of verbs.

A Plea From a Disgruntled Voter

(Or Please God, Let It Be November 7th)

Dear senators, congressmen
Please hear my plea.
Your phone calls and commercials
Mean nothing to me.

Your muck-raking and mud-slinging
Go from night until noon.
This election could never 
Be over too soon

Please understand, I've made my decision.
I don't need your e-mail or phone inquisition.

So please can we just stop the attacks
And go give each other a pat on the back.

And Compliance REGOLOGY….

WTF!!!  Is REGOLOGY????

The religion of the WOKE.

A mindful excavation of the cavernous abyss of addlepated thought.

Perhaps a “REGOLOGY FOR DUMMIES” book is forthcoming

Maybe…”A DOXOLOGY OF REGOLOGY” Hymnal?

Followed by an APOLOGY

Awareness Is Everything

Awareness is everything 
But, we must be willing to open our eyes
For they do not see everything 
Moments often catch us by surprise 
The unpredictability of life 
Often puts us in this position 
So thought provoking 
Nothing but an inquisition 
The fickleness of life 
Often takes our breath away 
Confusion and frustration 
Makes its appearance each day 
When we lack awareness 
It can lead to total chaos 
Filled with bewilderment 
Some of us may appear to be lost

Premium Member Consecration, the Sun Bleeds over Seville

The beast Alhambra 
roared a violent psalm
Vile conversos
horrid moriscos, 
the heretic herds
A spear thrust into
our sun’s martyred ribs
Held in hateful grips
the yellow warblers
dripped in crimson sheen
Flying like Michael
the vengeful vassal
of Aragon’s decree
“O Torquemada
Hark the righteous call
King of Suprema
Execute them all!”
Cold unfeeling wretch, 
the flesh guillotine
Teeth clicking sparks
lit endless pyres
Three made Seville
weep at the sight of Friars

Muteness

When you walk alone in the dark
In the seconds to midnight

When you inhale slowly
In the deepest inquisition

Which part is quizzing, puzzling
Great creations surrounds you

The stars guides you, tells you the right direction
But you are deaf to judge muteness

The limit line of dimension, space and time
Extending to unknown limitation
Muteness getting worse

Which part is quizzing, puzzling
Great creations or your self
