Short Severity Poems

Serious shots sounded
Silence untold
Secrets secondary to sacrifice
Severity of serenity salvaged
Sold to the sadness of a sadistic sabotage
Schedule of a senseless soul....

Listen to poem:

Greed holds a vice of severity,
A lure of assured prosperity,
Innocent made complexed,
Sensible made perplexed,
His death folks snubbed his calamity.

Charred pupils
Full of wrath

Bleeding wounds
Deep facial scars

Enormous hands
Holdings guns

Inhuman look

Badness cuffed
Severity born

Deprived of hope
People left alone

Infernal monsters

To death vowed
Obeisance to Lord

To fulfill their will
To hunt, to kill

When time comes...

In the hollows of my being
mental photos move about
doors attempt to shut out
what was already  in - severity
plaster walls sharing testimony 
with squeaky floors
warmth mingled with kerosence petals
ancient melodies oozing hope
ties of embryonic attendance 
anchors of strength obtained...

You aren't,
What you look;
You aren't,
The body you have;
You are what,
Others take you,
When you show up,
Yourself to them;
You are the persona,
Show up when you behave;
Others accept, reject,
'Yes' to your
Serenity and love;
'No' to impiety and severity;
They verify you, 
"Who you are";

    I cling to Thee
With all of My beliefs'
          - And -
   Surrender all of My

Fore You are the Mighty
      Of the Most High

felony figs feigning
pulpy punctured probity
mystic mist moaning
purpled eyes receding
damped desire drooping
salient severity scrunching

two temerarious Varmints -
callous ensconced embroidery
skins sans salmagundi

lusty leery lurching -
atuned atmosphere aiding
cranky coup clustering

chaetophorous Chipmunk saw,
pronto pram's metamorphose.

Trump Far Out of Reach

When President Trump is far out of reach, 
What we should always do is to impeach; 
To us had occurred, 
Completely absurd; 
As President must come to flying screech.

Something That I Know

There is something that I do know;
God hangs on to us not letting go;
Hand in hand,
Which is grand,
Regardless of severity of the blow.

LAMENT INJUSTICE
I am falsely accuse
I dress quite yet innocent not right undeserved outcome
I need reconciliation
I am related to justice exhibited severity
I vacation in the province of Lack of Not Right
My job is undeserved outcome
I desire moral fairness administer
Who am I? Innocent…

L-et your decision be hard as iron, 
U-sing no abatement of severity; 
I-n the midst of doubt and fear, 
S-trong action shows your intensity. 
I-mplacable or hard as iron, 
T-he intention is truly firm; 
O-beying the Lord Almighty doesn't make your mind squirm. 

S-olid faith, hope, and love 
A-re taught after you were born; 
D-ay twenty-nine of January, 
D-etermination is hard as 
I-ron....

Severity of the nails anchored through Christ’s palms.
Oil dabbed on mine - revelation of His gentleness.
Stinging tears that swelled a Savior’s face.
Mine — bright-eyed peaceful countenance.

My knees drop like the heavy cross into its plot.
The bruise to my knees inconsequential.
The thankful beating of my heart —
praising the King of kings perpetually.

Commitment 
Dealing with the adversity 
Staring  into complacency 
The fact that they lie is the majority 
The moment the truth is an obituary 
We stress to test our humanity 
To see if we have morality 
But we dont know our own limits
So we underestimate our competency 
The severity of your impunity 
Derived from the clarity of your immunity 
The absence of longevity 
The presence of obscurity...

Swollen eyes
Smeared blood on my chin
Iron taste in my throat
Stinging nose
Cheeks like a fire truck
Eyes like leaky vases
Drip drip drip
Blood everywhere
Blood not stopping
Blood still falling out
Clots of it in my sink
Lots of it on my cheek
CNBD struck again


*CNBD is Chronic Nose Bleed Disorder
I have anywhere from 4 to 30 nosebleeds a week ranging in severity, so I wrote a poem about it...

FACINATION
 a certain awe
 a kind
of reverence

fancifully
 conceived

an executed

 a

 immersed
in trepidation

a vast moodscape

Solemn and still, barely breathing
Arms weighing heavy lain with burden
Always standing, never sleeping
Constantly changing, nothing certain

Crying out for many lives lost
The tragedy and severity of war
Men and boys have paid the cost
This willow weeps, praying, “No more.”

dreaming on a wish!
unclear on your future.
missing secrets:
so vague and unsure,
even beyond regrets,
unmeasured unwanted longings,
made up of false security.
random sincerity;
closure without pain,
no waste in staying.
running with stains,
leaning on with hiding.
bearing fruitful patience,
kept unclear with whatever reality.
untold with no hold on the clarity,
teeming with unreal suspense.
mirage with severity,
illusion so intense.
this serves you more than it's purpose for me!...

The meekly
mollified man
subtly sews
his silently
simplistic sights
upon reality’s
rickety rufescent light .
Always left
lifelessly looming
beneath the brain’s
bashfully blurred
background
of benevolence.
Frankly flickering out
the faded flaws
whose firm
factual flames
of effectiveness
have by now
grimly grown
themselves
out of Life’s
limp lashes
of limelight .
Solemnly swearing
their silent
silken seas
of sorrow
into the
sulking sands
of insignificance ....

I don't know whether this border
is right behaving so-so
but I know its radicalism
I know its severity
I don't know whether
all borders are so
and if so is their law
then "congratulations" and 
"salutations" to borders
for that is a general rule
perhaps, world knew it
on the other hand 
if it is different, two
problems arise
that is a monster growing
and how to call it
I think to this end 
let stop any of its colour if found to be
a  morally wrong differential experience....
