The Watchtower
Rough waters startled,
The vessels terror sounded,
Blackness overwhelmed,
Suddenly ahead,
The Luminosity of
A star led them home.
The watchtower knows,
That sometimes we go astray,
His light guides us back.

Abandoning the Watchtower
Dylan got bitten

and though wounded

in makeup and veils
jesters by the score

The world heard an eclectic electric version

reverberate “All Along the Watchtower.”
“Hey Joe,” “Are You Experienced?”
“WELL, I AM !”
*To honor Jimi Hendrix in Raul Moreno's contest....

The Promised Deliverer
The hearth of God speaks inwardly
to our hearts and soul when we accept
the house of bread is spoken of in our Holy book
In the place of the skull balance holding truth
from the watchtower of strength you grew Almighty
As One Star You remain the brightest lit
when you stood at the porch in our church
In the place where the olives are pressed
the word made flesh became King
Corpus Christi Amen...
