Soldiers pray to God
For the choices they must make
To kill a child bomb
Evil has a face
Laughing as it destroys friends
Who believed in LOVE

The water flows
Without discernible movement
The sun shines
But no shadow detected
The wind blows
Without a puff of air
Plants grow
Void of fruit
Seats sit
Without a place to rest
....while I wait

Fixed eyes
No longer present
Soul seized
On a half-moon crescent
Down the pole
Up the flag
War on land
Winners brag
Tools boxed
Hands bound
Horn blown
No note to sound
Sky rips open
Lightening strikes
All are counted
Peace fights
...TRUTH stands

Standing in place
Working to wean
Eyes playing tricks
Seeing unseen
Shoulders hunched
Head in the lead
Moving the pieces
To serve a bleed
Toys to others
Pawns to Kings
Benefiting widely
Authority brings
Final trump
Blown and heard
TRUTH applied
Lesson learned

Covered in shadow
White to light
She is married
To the night
...yet she claims
I am owner
I am might
I have won
It's my right
...to rule man
Androgynous
When at war
A goddess
No more
...to appease appetite
Kings and Queens
Bound to glory
They honor and venerate
Her ancient story
...empty womb

On the floor
No more
Going through every door
Up the ladder
Here, batter batter
Home run in every matter
Walk the beam
Never give lean
Make life seem
...real
On the slab
Cold steel stab
To release the grab
Yielded still
Nothing left to feel
Resurrection seal
Up from the grave
Living out the save
Giving what LOVE gave
...life

There is a place
Beyond reason
Where people go
Without believin'
...in the unknown
No sickness or disease
No aging...
No sex, no race, no color
No....difference
No voice
Babies with bubbles in their mouths
Mothers without affection
Dereliction
Movement without purpose
Slavery a better state
Nations abandoned
...to become
HUMANOID

There it is
Hard steel
Lined in felt
Walk the line
Toe to heel
Cards dealt
...hmm
Movement limited
Agility required
Success after failure
Repetition inspired
...hmpf
Music added
Flowing vibration
Fear dissipated
Leaping without hesitation
...triUMPH
Flooring preferred
Elevation elation
Not required
No name
No fame
Heart fired

I could write so many words
Created to move, shake, and inspire growth
But I'd rather tell you of babies in baskets
Mothers placing offspring in steel cages
To ensure their continual safety
While piling food, toys, and drinks
On top of tiny legs
Making sure eyes are on the screen
Feeding empty mouths with scavenged product
...gotta bounce babies in baskets

Different worlds
Different times
Growing up
In our minds
Neither here nor there
Ambivalence reigned
Father ruled
Mother gained
No holding
No cuddling
Sin running
Reason befuddling
Sickness and disease
Chaos ordered in line
Six days left
To leave it all behind
What's ahead
More of the unknown
Just a basket of fruit
Showing how creation has grown

He runs around
Cleaning up her mess
Secretly wishing her
To let down her dress
...and stand
She follows him to death
Making him pay
Holding her heart
While he prays
...to god
They submit to rules
Acting like fools
Let someone else take the wrap
Comfort lines their beds
On satin cases they lay their head
As colored pegs line the map
...of a world
Unowned

There they sit
Unmoved, stilled
Yet fully filled
With recorded words
A journey of sorrow, grief
Great loss...my proverbial cross
Proof that I was me
I can't bear to open
The plastic lid
Peer inside the ocean
Where all the fish are the same
Swimming in a nice, neat row
Declaring, "She made it!
She's finally WHOLE!"
....WHOLE, with nowhere to go...and no one to be

I put myself in your hands
You put me in your heart
I ran away from your will
You pursued me with fervor
I dug my heels in against the pain
You washed my bleeding feet
I saw you loved me - I raged
You held me til my tears
washed away my understanding
Done with all my fears, I walked
You walked with me, and I found
PEACE.

I shall not lend an eye
In your direction
Knowing that power
Is what you seek
I shall not speak a word
On former connection
Knowing that relevance
Is your pay
I shall not make a move
Toward reconciliation
Knowing that condescension
Is your game
I shall not offer up a prayer
Toward LOVE
Knowing that treason
Is your heart's intent
...hell bent...on my destruction

As she sat in the bleachers
Same people, different place
Whitney is on the screen
But in a different...phase !?!
Fame has gone without a glitch
Unrecognizable, can't be fixed
Killing is normal
Living is wrong
Helping foes
Days oblong
No rhyme to reason
No flow for the river
Hurting babies
No cause for shivers
Dead...all is dead
The soul is breed
...gotta get out

I hear the faint rhythm
Of the familiar dream
Beating the song
My feet danced to
My lips yield
To the words
That brought life
To the surface of reality
My heart
My...grieving...joyful heart
Filled and emptied
With old and unknown
....fighting it out
The earth I knew
The one in which I grew
Is gone...I, well, I am moving on
Living in possibility
...for eternity

Come one, come all
To hear the family call
We count every head
Reminiscing about our dead
Play our games
With important names
Casting out the slain
Who wants only gain
We decorate our leaders
Wealthy little feeders
Our birds have open mouths
Right under their spouts
Pestilence are fixtures
In a poor man's mixture
Orderly houses crafted
For God's only grafted
...saints

I veered past
Your naked soul
And glimpsed
The scars
A slipped up sleeve
Revealed truth
I never wanted to see
Quickly, my eyes averted
As I squeezed away tears
...not here...not her
The breaking
The shattering hope
Gone, as crystal in wind
Beauty inside and out
Yet not one mirror
Can convince
Torment to let go
Of a yielded soul
Willing to cut away
...sorrow...seared sorrow

There is a bench
Under the Tree of Life
...no meaning
There is a church
Ringing a bell, at the end
...no salvation
There is a dorm
Waiting to be filled
...no companion
There is a grand library
Angels take me to the high place
...no enemy
There is a book
Golden, connecting to my core
...no lies
LOVE stands to my left
Peace settles my soul
...no separation
TRUTH is heard....forever

Like a meteor shower
Hailing down from heights unknown
TRUTH bombs dropping every hour
Into a heart where WORD has been sown
Opening up new possibilities
Unimaginable til now
The VOID in every door jam
Beckoning rhythm to bow
Sorrow and grief want to dance
With depression upon the back
Swing, two three, jump, and glide
Over the dip, missing the crack
...where LOVE embraces lack

Sing little bird
Give life to wind
Let the rhythm
Of physics begin the end
Woven in Word
Root to fruit
Death to life
Volition in pursuit
Masculine to feminine
Woman from man
Water in formation
Yielding up land
Right on Wrong
Trees to offer choice
Appearance of lack
Muted love's voice
Existence requires both
Ebb and flow
Circumstances in opposition
Reveal the slow
...process

Patterns emerge
Lines acquiesce
Points splatter
What a mess
...of matter
Darkness looms
Spaces concealed
Light blips
Stones revealed
...nothing
Boxes opened
Toys inside
Innocence gone
Wounds confide
...secrets
Ways create
Paths lead
Familiar journeys
Cultures need
...seed
Future bound to past
Moments drown in buried treasure
Transformation broke the mold
No frame could measure
