And so the show begins
in an effort to simplify
they obfuscate
complicate and
obliterate

Captured and Slain

Where have all the Poets gone,
  has time then captured and slain

Those heraldic writers of messaged truth
  —whose shields once bore their names

Ananais and Sapphira - Peter and Spirit

I
Spirit of God gives wisdom:
Read Acts, chapters 4 & 5
Doing charity and kicked down
Ananais & Sapphira: not alive

II
Peter sensed this couple, Christian
Had ignoble motives, sold land
Lied to him, they donated everything
At his feet. Scary bible study. Be warned

slain

Sacrificial 
Love for all mankind
Agonizing pain 
Indescribable 
Nailed to ths cross

God so loved the world
that he sent his only son 
as a living sacrifice
to set us free
from sin
pierecrd for our transgressions
no words can describe such Love 
that you would die for us
so we can be free
thank you Lord
Amen

Love-Slain

Metaphors
I just can't find

for that which throbs
inside my chest,

for that which floats
and fills my head;

I just can't figure out 
the setting

of my frazzled frame
of mind;

for there's a fog that 
slowly swirls

and dims the sun behind
my eyes,

but not the glow of you
in there

in my love-struck,
love-slain heart!


Premium Member Slain Young Children

Relaxing in our comfortable seats. declaring that it's a crying disgrace honestly, it doesn't matter to us further than just facts are required. to justify all of this suffering and loss of another heinous crime we are refusing to look take a step back. as the number of victims grows. every day

Premium Member The slain damned sister

The slain damned sister
Look at me while you sleep,
Look deep into my eyes.
Sink into a slumber,
Where you’ll never see the rise.
I’ll wash your face with falling tears,
That drown the sight in yours.
While every ounce of pain you gave,
Settles in our pores.
You’ll slowly fade to nothing,
A ghost of what was well.
Sleep tight, my love, forever
And find your rest in hell.

Widow of Slain Ricardo

For full nine months forlorn widow,
Every nine hours by window;
Men watching their every shadow,
Still hoping for her Ricardo,
Who'd promised her Eldorado,
This doing in a Choice Meadow...

Now, The Incommunicado,
Gone her main source of Bravado
And Volunteering Troubadour,
To her a Buck she to him Doe,
Ricardo, not innocent, though...

Slain for vanishing with Grang's dough

Slain

Sometimes I cry,
as the whole world
engulfs into flames
remorseful eyes can't cry
so they glance enviously

Sometimes I cry,
when a shooting star
births a raging comet
that spilled this vodka
all over my remains

Sometimes I can't cry,
When the world turns
it's back on the suffering
that so many had endured
turning their souls to dust

Now you can cry,
As your mother's ashes
is poured in the sea 
of strife to be consumed
by the forces of despair
