singing to a far-off gleam

Cakes and other temptations,
Worry not my dear,
I'll vanquish them all bravely
Before they reach your sweet tooth...

The Genesis,

A swindling paradox
Before time,
Before mass,
Before politics.

Begetting creation
To vanquish boredom....

Cloud formations etched

clouds
mutate
shapes shifting
into demons
hovering over
abandoned warehouses
as big city dreams vanquish
barren driveway going nowhere
my final thoughts fading to darkness...

This inner battle

fighting for my life

vanquish these feelings.

Fight them off!

Overcome.

No time to fail

Turn around, take a look.

Deep slow breaths.

Finally...peace and serenity....

I hold you with joy
your essence a sweet fragrance 
a glimpse of heaven
here now must I vanquish time
for parting wounds lovers’ souls

I feel safe in your arms. 

Lost in your warm embrace. 
Only yo can make my heart flutter. 
Vanquish all my fears. 
Even on the darkest nights. 

Your kiss draws me in. 
Once I was lost. 
Untill you found me....

Compelled to fight dirty,
in attempts to stay clean
The shadows conscripted,
clandestine and mean
Surprise as an ally,
you stalk and you spy
To vanquish the monster
—declawed and defied

Poetry’s spoken armor
repels the pointed spear
warding off tomorrow’s scars
enemies in fear
Each word thus protected
as phrases form anew
to vanquish what the darkness brings
— new battlegrounds in view

In the dark


In the dark when the Halloweens vanquish,
Blow the candles of your mind,
Consternation is gripping!

Avarice breeds contempt,
disrupting equilibrium.

Forgotten graces; haughty imps jubilate, 
keenly listening, memorializing news 
of people quietly receding.

Slippery transgressions ultimately vanquish wiles.

X-out yawning Zacchaeus....

In your eyes my dear blue oceans ravels and in your hair night get lost 
Between your lips a poet lose his words and vanquish his thoughts
A circulation of a full moon I see in your face and a breeze from God heavens come out from your breaths...

May St. Michael protect you,
Through the darkest hour of the night.
When we are most vulnerable to the forces
that corrupt our heart and souls.
May he vanquish and cast out all evil
that lurks within our dreams,
so as he did with the fallen angel long ago.

Amen...

Doubt is great poison

smiting faith and trust in God…

vanquish unbelief*.

The ABC’s of Overcoming Fear
     By Dane Smith-Johnsen

Always-
Bear courage.  Delightfully!  Effervescently.
Form grand.  Hopeful, images.  Jest!  
Keep lucid mental notions.  Observe.
Practice.  Quench random satanic thinking.
Undo.  Vanquish weirdness- xenomorphic.
Yird zabernism.  (Bury bullying)...

Teach me the dance
Teach me the Tango
Hold my soul in your arms
The scent of your hair
Firmness of hand
Teach me the dance
That starts slowly at first
Show me the way
Teach me the dance
Teach me to love
Vanquish my fears
Sensual steps
Slowly
Teach me to sing
I'll sing praises to you
But first...
Tango with me...

This poem is really written by the student VK/11 yrs. Read top down and then bottom up

Death destruction and despair
Destroying
Families and friends
Vanquish hope
Never
Say I love you
Always
Be sad
Do not
Be free
Hopelessness and poverty
Take over
The world
You will rule
Nothing
Dissipate the word
Happiness...
