Morning rebirth.

Stirred by a dream.

Rendered my serenity.

For the soft requiem.

Defer our mortal fate.

For life awaits.

With all of its virtue.

And veiled charades....

Beneath the candles of the sky
I find my altar brown
The cushions damp upon the ground
And for leafless ceiling sigh
Against this its vain to pray
The climate constant change 
Yet is my custom at end of day
To thank him for the strange...

a pleiades poem

Our blessed Father, in whom we find our true worth.
Order the thinking of our leaders here on earth.
Occupy our nation in these upside-down days.
One and Only Redeemer, Your standard we raise
Off’ring up repentance for grace we can’t merit,
Obeying the calm, rousing voice of Your Spirit.
Oversee our great land, bring your crucial rebirth....

When life is full in my throat,
I pray with an embryonic want.

I hear the needs
of the innocent and dragons,
they do not seem
so different to me.

The plaintive calls of the lost,
the tigers panting bruit
are not so different.

I am what the egg wants.
I want a pulsating engine
that crashes through the tangle
of this worlds face.

I want a hammer-bright orison
to challenge with a shell-breaking voice....

Barack cool as a schooner in wind
Anchored his vision to the sky
Rinse the blue and uncloud his mind
Rose up sweetly, bloom to defy
Ancient customs screening light 
Callous suppositions on human rights
Kindle a candle on his bow

Omniscient one, keep this orison for him
Black as the night but better to show
Africa's star on the Atlantic brim
Mending fences, sweeping pretenses away
Allow him to bring his cargo into bay....

Let my words
be my words, penned true
from my being-ness,

Let my words 
be consistent
with open-ness

Let my words
be profusely scribed
with no relapses in between

Let my words
be of harmonious sound
throwing no slander around 

Let my words 
make reason
to the rhymes

Let my words
have logic
flowing along the lines

Let my words
be pleasing to hear
for the listening ear

Let my words
be my words of prayer
spoken from my mind....
