This Lonely Little Hovel

when the sun gives her last wink
hours spent in thought 
to leave the safe sanctity
this lonely little hovel

Premium Member Cloaked Evil

Beneath the Holy
Veil of sanctity
Men and women
Play, tease the Devil
Offering up children's
Innocence 
For lust and
Momentary pleasure.

Untitled #287 / "why Don'T You Just Kill Yourself?"

“Your poems are all so depressing.
Why don’t you just kill yourself?”
Because respect for the sanctity of life
follows respect for the sanctity of love

The Hidden Face

The hidden face

Love to a Swiss Army knife more akin
Dumbfounds the blind's ear and elates
Blasts a rocky,impregnable barbican
Yet torpedoes nests and sanctity flatulates.

Travesty of Sanctity

Daughter, sister,
Wife, mother,
Adjectives of kinship
Are worthy of worship

Markers of purity,
Idols of sanctity,
Yet victims of atrocity!
Strange cozenage of sanctity!!

Push the ship, sail!

Premium Member Intrusive Thoughts

Intruders
Invasive interlopers
Encroaching on the edge
Of thought
Prowlers invading
The sanctity of the soul
Clumsy burglars
Violating the boundaries
Of whispered secrets
Purring cat burglars
Seeking comfort

Sanctity of the Cross

Truth by lip service and rote

Nailed to a cross

Judgment by history; cut short

To appease the blaggard and bullies of faith

Nailed to idolatry

The future by judgment; cut short

To appease the Judas heart

Premium Member Holiness On Christmas Eve

There's holiness on Christmas Eve
whether snow does fall or warmth may call
  
  It's a special time, when Sanctity
  enters -- not majestically 
  but silently, moccasined 
         ~ through night's corridors and halls

Better and Better

And you do imagine
the imagined childhood
that was not yours
will bring peace and sanctity 
to the child of yours
and when it does
it is never good enough
because you want better and better
nothing will ever be just good enough

To Fall To See the Ocean

as i fall to see eternity 
i rise up and swim 
to the sky above
although i feel 
there is no sanctity
i clearly see it does exist
no one calls 
from the ocean
they only look 
to see...me
when i fell 
below the 
waters
i still rose 
beyond the
sea.

There are possibilities of restoration,mutual love,sanctity and redemption__
Amidst disputes,desperation,infidelity,incest and violence.
Even though,we are torn apart by irreconciliable differences__
Grace and forgiveness has become indispensible for each other!

Return To Wholeness

The body is precious
a vehicle for
awakening
treat it with care,
said Buddha

I love its stillness
beauty and sanctity
here and now

sink into its calm
to hear the whispers
in all
its ebbs and flows

erect, penetrate
the edge of life and
loss
return to wholeness

Medallion Moments

Medallion moments dawdle,
shading hints of ruby and brass-
grains of sand linger,
like lost sand in an hourglass. 

I feel the blazing embers of
heated passion in a lover's dream-
the sanctity of a desert landscape, 
feathering a vista so serene.

Sanctity

Lifting eyes I see a vision.
Senses feel cool crisp mountain air.
I know not my mortal mission.
Though this glory I hereby share.
Rising peak of Heavens highlands,
Paradise, our ecstasy withstands.

Premium Member The Strange and New

Sanctity arises
In this flesh of the doomed
Whenever burrows are kicked-in...

       I hear you calling from the top of a grassy hill
       Your skirt waving in the sunlight
       I remember receiving your radiation.
       And it left my burrows a broad palace,
       Strange and new.

Premium Member Annwn's Cauldron

Many brazen men have 
failed to win her sanctity;
shouting foolish taunts
to vex The Fays of Chastity.

How eager they are 
to gnash and gnaw
the bones of 
The Strange-Very Strange,

and how willing they are to wager 
away precious wit and whim
to win a prophetic poet bride 
for the musing of Taliesin.

Premium Member Pure Passion

Orange blossom scents fill this space. A flower and rose on the days of magic. The infinite is bitten by the green sea. The finger is wrapped in yellow. Efforts are required to pray. The way our faces looked at the well. sanctity of seraphim. We find pure passion in another world.

The Monastery

The Mystery of the Monastery 

In the Entity comes Sanctity

Repentance giveth to Admittance

Cleansing of the Sensing

To Homogenize and Energize 

Around All Periphery Leads to Epiphany

The Summoning of the Soul

Giving Truth To the Worldly Toll

HOLY ORDER

Where is thy sanctity and mystery?
Where is the vow of celibacy?

I’m i asking too much of this odour
Or is it a fallacy or a rumour

Scandal all around you and no remorse
Do i read it to be greed-what should i endorse

Why should priest crave for asset and wealth?
There still a lot not known in the depth
