The Force of Nature

Apples 'n' snakes
A force of nature 
for the unredeemed.

Love 'n' grace
The new force of His nature 
for the redeemed.

Jesus 'n' covenant 
The sacrifice for the new nature 
for the redeemed.

Jesus 'n' I
Same nature of the Son 
and the redeemed.

Jewels of Fire

The other side
of knowing 
A padlocked world
of dreams
Whose key is tattooed 
on my hope 
Till opened
unredeemed

A treasure chest
of wisdom
Whose prescience 
zero sum
Instinct crowned
in jewels of fire
Burning
—to become

Unredeemed

Are you hiding inside your writing,
making it impossible to see what you mean

Camouflaged words based on muddled intent,
to confound, confuse, or mislead

Is it cryptic or gibberish in nature,
your attempt to impress with your scheme

Are your words still unlived as you write them all down
—unpurposed and left unredeemed

(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2020)

Morals and Molars

to succumb to the allure of temptation
is to sink into the abyss of damnation;
there is no road that will lead us back
to where we started and be pure again
for the stain shall remain forever within.

oh, morality! many souls lost in thy altar,
well-meaning folks sinning despite you;
like teeth guarding the gate to the core,
either we remain clean from start to end
or be sullied, then fall off, unredeemed.

Tombstones & Teacups

Death belies the darkness summoned,
tombstone-colored is the sky,
shards of memories merely fragments,
wailing wind the sole reply.

Violent storm winds strip the tree limbs
like a poltergeist, unseen,
tawdry feeders, heavy wind chimes,
beat against the window screens.

Waiting for the glass to shatter,
like so many childhood dreams,
china teacups, rosebud patterned
in the dustpan, unredeemed.

Dreamer and the dreamed

As entity in the dream we conjure
 we know not we are both the dreamer and dreamed
how then may we wake up when we are in trance
In bondage to illusions we ourselves streamed
In hopes of escaping a reality that is unredeemed
How do we exchange one prison for another
Even if one seems better than the other
In hopes of finding peace
or something as rare as a Golden Fleece
A sea of imagines and illusions
A hope and a goal
What truly is a dream?

Premium Member Emptiness

I am full
Of emptiness
I long for longing
Crave contentment

The insensate pain
Of intangible touch
Indecipherable ciphers
Choreographed madness

Craggy comfort
Of blunt condolence
The decorum of anarchy
Deserted crowds, social solitude
Miles given to intercept steps

At the dawn of abundance
I see only
bones of ghosts 
Whose meager admonishment
I forgot to unlearn

Unredeemed
And unrepentant
I am in love
With loneliness.

Yet Some More T.B.'s T.B.S

The Caspian Sea; is that where friendly ghosts go for vacation?
Big as a football field: don't you know about foot measurements??
The Swat Team;  I called them when my house was infested with flies.
My psychiatrist asked me if I had any "old reservations" about a desire to end
some bad habits.  I said, "Yeah, I have some old reservations- two unredeemed 
tickets to a 1973 Pink Floyd concert"  this really took place.
How come 2 & 2 isn't 22??

Enough for now, all you dedicated "Soupers"
