Servitutem

Indentured as servants,
and not as our masters

Words are conscripted
—their meanings enslaved

(Dreamsleep: October, 2020)


Public Serpents

often, those who piously claim to be

                  taxpayers' servile servants

                    are but public serpents!

through echoes of dawn's funny song
while servants eyes desire escaped expressions
through ones journey

Voters, Beware

Many candidates 

      for public office

            who claim to be 

            public servants

       oftentimes turn out 

to be public serpents.

Cats are okay I guess
If you really want only a guest
But for a pet whose love never ends
Dogs are both family and friend




Dogs have masters
Cats have servants

Reverence

Having a high regard for the Lord 
lets a prayer be heard by God. 
Obedience to His commands 
even during troubles 
is quite important. 
He shall be with 
true servants 
through the 
storm.

new misogynistic hatred
springs forth from the altar
worship my deity
breathe the chemical imbalance
and choke on my godhead
you, who are meager
you, who are my servants
you emaciated addicts

Masters Versus Masses

If the masses works a slaves and servants
For these politician… great and giants
       Poverty will prevail
       More families will fail
There will be a war of the plants and ants.

Jonah - Chapter 10, Verses 107, Holy Koran

If Allah do any harm to you
No one else but Allah can remove it
If He wants to do some good to you
There’s none to keep back His favors a bit
He gives it to the servants of His liking
And He is the Most Forgiving Merciful Being.

Ink

Poetry like your love reveals all my untruths. It is amazing how naked our words can make us. Poets we are. Servants only to the ink which exposes us. Ambiguous in nature but defining in language. 

Poets, my ink is your forever yours.

Still Born American Fetus

I wont entertain these stillborn
Ideas with a bandanna and a cross
I wont bargain for insurance
While fake servants roam the floor
There's no love on my tongue
For pasty, plastic American dripping dreams
The thief of the garage
Stole my conscience

Seven Servants of Hate


Behind heavens beauty, there sometimes lies the serpent of hate
What pleases the eye, sometimes may poison the heart
Beware the servant who entices with the rose
And strikes with the thorn
Love disguised
Uncovered
Hate

Premium Member A new story of light

Light

Portrays the scene

Defines what is seen

In convincing detail..

It seems that

Light is a word which

Like all words are

Servants of separation..

Yet light in effulgent

Resonance may erase

An old and write

A new story...

Snake Sirloin

Serenading with sermons at services,
Serious seraphims searched out self-serving serpents.
But serrated silver certainly surpasses serenity.
Sirloin snake steaks seared and served by servants.

Apolitical

tithes, alms to atone for lies and murder

            politician, shrewd provider

            feeling saved all over


            often, those who piously claim to be

            taxpayers' servile servants

The Servants

Who runs Oz? The task,
A public servant you must ask!
PS clerk run our land,
Admirably, it's quite grand,
As they will tell you, tee hee,
They run budgets efficiently,
Managing Oz quite capably,
Pollies come and pollies go,
PS clerks are keeping on, lo!

Atop Holy Hill

Atop thy holy hill,
Thy pine – so banished – weeps.
It reaches high for clouds of rye
But falters incomplete.

Atop thy holy hill,
Thy servants kneel and pray.
In holy stone thy bell atones
And beckons forth the day.

‘Why dost thou hide behind thy wooden doors…’

My Lord,
    
I Thee implore to hear my plea: 

         
Last on Thy list of your humblest of servants let

My soul a place to find 


While


Disregarding my heart’s request, first to be on 

The list of mankind!

My Lovely Twins

I have my lovely twins
they love me so much
they are dutiful servants
compassionate they are
I’m never left lonely
when one is cooking
the other prepares bed
when one is on duty
the other one waits
to take over gladly
that is, life and death!
always together but apart
