a rending of my spirit
but it never bleeds...

for war it tears and never mends

forbearance key to make amends 

or future generations rend

for war will tear and never mend...

Aches and pains, my back they rend
     Day and night without end
  To these I painstakingly attend
         Faithful companions 
       Would that they mend!...

Her eyes drip down scorn
Like pus from running sores
Every word edged and barbed
To rip and rend and tear
She lives to laugh at suffering
But oh she has such pretty hair...

Lady,

In me you did inspire
This poem like wildfire--
For your beauty is so deep
You make me feel small and meek--
From me my heart you did rend 
Because from heaven you did descend...

Tu en croira pas tes yeux
En amitié 
Tu est bien aimé
Parmis vos ennuies
Rend lui ton appui
Son épaule toujours là
Même si tu y pense pas
Jésus-Christ sera notre encre
Miracle après miracle...

The best thing in life is a really good sneeze
Explodes with such ferocity, it brings down trees
Actually thrills me no end
Torn undies it does rend
Makes a hurricane seem like a gentle wee breeze...

Nature's first child with nature's passion blend
Ornated flower where the sun's passion rend
Religious things from the flawed hand of men
Melodious to hear, to dance but never bend
Astute wonder that from Orpheus' lyre descend...

always take the time to send it
have the fortitude to bend it
never fail to carefully tend it
be ever willing to mind and mend it
never fail to stoutly defend it
always give but never lend it
for fear that you might rend it
know that nothing can transcend it

if its water element  
then its all a big event 
freely given its God sent 
 
  
mirroring our firmament,  
liquid matter can't be bent
cuz its fluid it wont rend,
if its water, element.

Pieces of my heart
Left in so many places
Like so many shreds of paper

Rend into little, tiny bits
Like confetti
Used in New York parades

Each tiny bit torn away
Leaves a scar
Which may never heal

Pieces of my heart
That I gave away
And that were not returned...

this drains me 
falling away 
leeching from the source 
they can't wait to rend your soul 
to kill your chances 
one more time 
but you couldn't read it in the papers 
hear it on the radio 
let me explain 
or maybe not 
just throw yourself 
at my face

what should Santa do ?

By serving God I serve man,
  but I cannot serve God by serving man;
  the horse is put before the cart;
  the sheep shall scatter to the wind....
  for I shall see sheep, yet not the herd ----
  one will fall away,
  the rest will follow,
  and the wolf shall rend them piecemeal...

En regardant les peintures,
je me rend compte d'un monde des génies,
où les choses racontaient des choses sans demander,
où il n'existait pas la trahison,
où la nature était en pleine forme,
où pour être belle une fille n'avait pas besoin de changer sa forme.
En regardant les peintures......

We sprint,
We sprint,
We shan’t tarry within the shadows!
Give us the light.

We were not fabricated
To be degraded,
To be heavily degraded,
And narrow volume of respiration
That these lavender things have invented.
We sprint,
Oh, Lord,
We sprint!
We must rend these shadows,
We must find the light....

Cacophony of chaos
Screeching through the night
A barrel-full of simian rage

Nearly human primate hands
Smash, throw, rend and tear 
Destroying at random

The mark of primitive destruction
Stamped on every shard and scrap
A monkey nightmare
Spilling over into reality

A trace of humanity
Perhaps?...

Silver'd whisps, 
diaphanous, floating 'neath 
the ether, flying high like 
prophecy or prayer. 

Black forbidding masses
rumbling out their message,
jagged bolts of lightning 
rend the air.

Innocuous or deadly, 
omens to discerning eyes, 
it would behoove us all 
to heed the skies....

     Hearts designed to beat together
         torn asunder, grope and stumble
     Seminal streaks of lightning flash
         thunderbolts rend and rumble  

     Lips yearning, pried apart
        demonic forceps ice-cold-sterile
      Amnesia, sweet sleep imparts
        Love’s embrace, for aye imperiled
