Premium Member Heart -Of- Stone

Torrid man has a hateful horrid heart of unsacred unsaved unsecured sacrificial Stones Heart porm Heart of Stone Spirit of stone
5/2>/20 Written words by James Edward Lee Sr 2020


Untitled

Terror unending 
Bliss unendured 
Iron will unbending 
Love unsecured 
If God be willing 
Truth will be found 
In some bird's bright trilling 
In some bell-like sound 
And if walls should crumble 
And towers should fall 
My heart will be found 
Buried under it all

Listen to poem:
Encore
David J Walker

The Straight-Line life will
find a way to wind
its way in time

Save the savings they say
for a future day 

Save the savings for 
play days and dates in a future
unsecured

I am the today onstage
there will be no encore 
	and therefor

No tomorrow
	No yesterday

SAND PROMISES

SAND PROMISES

Some promises are set firm in stone
Foundations supporting them forever
Yet in a tide’s constant ebb and flow
Others get washed away in the sand
A pity, but often easy to understand
Well-meant, yet are unsecured below
Unable to survive inclement weather
And unworthy to ascend any throne

My Fate Unsecured

Overspending the bulk
  of my temporal capital
 
Hourly deficits climb
  and pile into notes

Debts I’ll never repay
  stored in vaults I can’t find

Words lying uncashed,
  as I write overdrawn  
   
Pledging to go back 
  and re-sign what’s untendered

 I’m unforgiven—overdue,
   my fate unsecured 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)


Skating

Around and around we go
Faster and faster the wheels roll.
Left and right are a blur.
Chasing an end never to come.
Come play the game now.
Don’t you want to be someone?
He's a lawyer she's a thief
Both stealing beyond belief.
Gold and precious are they
What they desire in this play.
Unsure and unsecured their prey
Put your guard up, protect yourself this day

Premium Member War Plans, What War Plans?

O’ no, the Washington swamp media rails
and the hypocrites are all telling tall tales.
   A war plan group chat
   on an unsecured app
but how soon they forget Hillary’s emails!

Fly boys were good to go in their cockpit
and the Houthi strike targets were all hit.
   A successful mission plan
   unlike Joe’s Afghanistan 
so those filled with outrage are full of sh*t!

Premium Member Still Learning

I killed my hope within me
And found it quite stillborn.
I let my anger sway me
And met the perfect storm.
My vessel looks unaltered,
My future seems assured,
But destiny has faltered.
Intent is unsecured. 
My every motion runs
Away into the night.
My agitation shuns?
The still small voice of right.
No weapon comes so ready
And willing to the hand
Than that which will unsteady
The ground on which I stand.

Premium Member Common Threads

whether bound and dragged 
behind a pick-up 
‘til limbs slowly dismember
or shackled hand and foot 
then tossed unsecured 
into the back of a rolling 
makeshift coffin

whether judge, jury or executioner 
all don the same hat 
and fancy themselves a God
and your only crime was to exist 
in pigmentation unlike their own

let us not forget our tears
our laughter, our blood 
our date with mortality 
these common threads 
that bind us

Premium Member Plastic Signal

On the back of a chair, a plastic bag
Hangs by one of its carry loops
The other free to move in the breeze
Which enters from the window nearby

Back and forth, fitfully waves the free loop
Calling me, or something near me
Passing on a beckon from the atmosphere
To whom addressed?

What elements are signalling each other
Beyond my understanding, if not notice;
What their arcane subject?

Within my being, something shivers
As the unsecured loop
Waves me on.
