THE BROKEN LOVE

STANZA 1
Love at first sight,
Was like the happiness of birches birds.
The lightening of the innermost light,
Desired to be protected with girds.
STANZA 2
Set the bow to defeat her sorrow,
But to her, devil may care.
Ready to marry her tomorrow,
But to her was a nightmare.
STANZA 3
The world even testified that she is my dimeworth.
But all my heart and inner love ended up in tears.
I returned to my inner love with loath.
And my heart was grieved with fear.
STANZA 4
I took all my Morse,
Because I backed the wrong horse.

I'm Struggled

Halted growth
Battled water
Moistures talking
Above the lawless
Days first lies
Desperate sights
Knowing not what they've done
Another March
Visits the spun
Cotton bottles broke
Twice plucked thorns 
And checked
Doses of fringe
Corners of binge
Testified ends
Of witness 
Miracle or Martyr's 
Awnings in futures
A dancing dismay
Pleasant awkward May

Revival

Revival


We humans wept for the revival 
Nothing nor time can be at arrival
Yet, the redshift of revival was horrendous
It often creeps the dream of wondrous 
Sadly, shirked the throbbing drums
Yes! The soreness after the bubblegum 
Thumps that messaged the wounds
Click away the silly sticky bounds
We, humans, sobbed for the curves 
And constantly impairs the scattered nerves

Universe testified the forbearance 
By passing phases of physical sufferance
We, humans, unable to speculate the fade
They rolled the unexpected blades 
Blades that cut and curse the embrace
And we kept shouting with space to trace
Time, clicks away the antidote for pure
And eventually vanishes the miles of endure
We, vulnerable, we, vulnerable 
We, vulnerable, we, vulnerable 

Newness wakes after a decade
Decade of dullness and bone headedness
Create the covering cure and activeness
Yet, unwrap the belief, yet unwrap the belief
We, vulnerable, we, vulnerable.

Death Sentence

{"I convicted myself into a death sentence when it came to dote on, bear the witnesses because they saw me alleviate the tears nobody had reconciled or dared to wipe away; they simply did not. 
The smoke is flaming inside of me, and it isn’t dwelling away or even sufficing. They replenish my lungs in exasperation as I flunk to inhale a tad bit of reinvigorated air. 
You slaughtered me in a way nobody has. Whereas now they beg for the forgiveness of the broken. They measly take a stand and testify against it. I whisper to myself like a madman, for you shan’t be convicted of manslaughter, and I shan’t forgive you in any way probable. 
Your actions don’t merit punishment behind bars,
you deserve death as I have reached my own demise a million times over; bear the burden I have felt, one that cannot slide open the portico and make a legitimate run for it. I let it in me, fused it, relived it. 
I inhaled the smoke of a Cigar and let it ruin me all in all, then I testified against all odds; 
‘It is what it is.’"}

she says she is innocent

the house was on fire
luckily no one is inside said the wife
her neighbors gathered around
offering condolences
hustled her children to their homes
fed them and gave them clothing
lots of empathy and sympathy
this is a small town
people help

then they discovered the wife had lied
her husband’s body was found
burned up in a back bedroom
he had been shot before the fire
there was lots of hugging and crying
suspicion and rumors flew through the town
the coroner’s report was supposed to be secret
but it wasn’t, someone had shot the man first
everyone turned on the wife

the couple had been bickering
their children suspected their mother
they both testified against her
she was convicted by a jury
not of her peers, they had to move it to another town
for everyone in this town knew her
she is a convict now, a woman who has lost all support
no one visits her, not even her children
she says she is innocent, but no one believes her
not even her mother

He has Only Just Begun

Stoned out of concentration, my eyes stared deep into the padded grey church walls, ambient coloured lights flashed through the tinted windows dancing up the ceilings, and tunes of melodious worship shadowed past my ears.

I never wanted a cut on my body. "you have a cyst in both ovaries and it requires prompt surgery." The doctor's words eluded my thoughts, fleeting like flickering LEDs.

I wanted a miracle desperately. Shattered in tears, I spoke to God, asked him to heal me, 
to give me a first-hand embrace of his mercy and I'll share mine too.

Faith is a mix of troubles and losses, dreams on hold, hurts and tears. But with it, God sends a blanket of stability. One month later, the test came back negative. I testified.

IN THE REMEMBRANCE OF THE MARTYRS

They sung for the Lord in the synagogues
Raising mixed feelings to the music analysts
Voices mattered less, the message more precious
Preached his word in the land
The sacrifices they made to secure life!
In moments of trial, they testified of his goodness
Seeking his comfort when times were darker
Faith led their ways, hope guided their motives;
God was good in the old days,
He still was good in their days, resistant to change
He would forever be good!
Unmoved by threats, ready to battle for him,
The victory, he would grant them
Eternal peace was their prize,
So they bowed to human destruction,
Holding their flags firmly still.

First Night of Chanukah Blessings

Baruch atah, Adonai 
Eloheinu, Melech haolam, 
asher kid’shanu b’mitzvotav 
v’tsivanu l’hadlik ner 
shel Hanukkah.

Praised are You, Lord 
our God, Ruler of the universe, 
who made us holy through Your commandments 
and commanded us to kindle 
the Chanukah lights.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Praise You Jesus, Lord at thy birth,
Son of God, Love's Pure Light,*
Whose greatest Commandment is to Love,
and Whom John testified is
the Light of the world.**

Blessed are you, Mary,
Queen of our hearts, Mother of Israel's Hope,*** 
who blessed us with your Son to help us be holy,
allowing your home to become like a menorah centered in
Jesus, the Shamash.

Blessed are you, Joseph,
Light of the patriarchs, Foster-father of Jesus,
who taught Jesus (the Son of God!) how to pray,
and who with the Holy Family did kindle
the Chanukah lights.

Blessed are you -- yes you!
A child of God our Father, you are loved!
Contemplate the miracle of Chanukah with the Holy Family,
and Jesus our Shamash kindling in your heart
the Light of the world.

Witsec

Hailstones ricochet off a steel cellar door
As storm clouds charge like winged hussars
Across the raging sky.
I’m sheltering somewhere far from Kansas,
Memorizing my witness protection profile
And getting acquainted with the honesty of solitude.
I’m contemplating the mystery of consciousness
While ruminating the passage of time.
I explore the big empty, every nerve cell inert.
If I had any feelings, they’d only be hurt.
Happy people piss me off 
By flaunting what I haven’t got.
All my truth can be explained 
By every teardrop ever rained
While sitting in the witness box.
Now, I’m a mystery contained within a riddle.
It’s the melancholy garlic of a saffron affair. 
And if I come off hard around the edges,
It doesn’t mean I testified in vain.

Summer Altar Date

Never hindered by lock-down pressure height
summer altar date wafts love triumphant
vanquishing angst of scheduled wedding plight
tying hearts beating as one, so vibrant.

Surmounting tough attacks of ennui dart
engaged souls, awaiting marital vows 
steadfastly nestled in prayer rampart
assured for life-building home to espouse.

Compliant to protocol enforcement
notwithstanding social distancing task
romance blazes, sealed with “I do” moment
obviously testified by joyed-face mask.

Cleaving* together now with God’s favour
they’re a couple His blessings to savour.

*Matthew 19:5 …For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh…
Congrats and Best wishes, Bro. Warren and Sis. Karen.  I love you both in the Lord.

A Paradise Above Other Paradise

Let not the pretense of men get to you
Nor the false preachings of pastors
enslave you from the pleasures of life

Come with me prince and I will show you
Many men have visited and testified
The goodness and the sweetness I give 

It’s hilarious how hypocritical men are
He that pretend to be an enemy at dawn
Is but my companion at night

Come with me and I will show you
Where heaven is located and 
Where the crowns of the gods dwells

I will show you a land of milk and honey
Where sweet waters flows 
With its nature fruitful and fair

Adam your father once ate of my apples 
and was made as wise as gods
Come foolish one and be made wise

Come taste from my strong wine
Enjoy the warmth of my flesh 
Take the knowledgeable milk of my breast

I have caused many men to wonder
How the world would have been 
Without a generous goddess like me

In the middle of my Eden is that tree
with ripe and rejuvenating fruits 
That refreshes a man’s inner soul 

Come my prince, come have a taste 
and know why I’m been called 
A paradise above other paradise

Election Fraud Questions

If there was no election fraud: 
Then why so much determination to stop discussion about it?
If it is one big lie, are they calling all the Americans who testified liars?
Those who testified after signing sworn affidavits?
Even with those being brave enough to do so with death threats?
If it is so much of a lie, then why aren’t they in jail?
For that is the consequence for lying after signing the affidavit
They are not to blame for their testimony restricted to state legislatures,
Instead of being allowed into the courts, where it should be presented
Why didn’t the main stream media cover these hearings in detail?
To me, it doesn’t matter what side you are on or affiliated with
This is a federal election with proven evidence, numbers and facts,
Truly revealed in hours of testimony from credible witnesses
I would like to believe that anyone would want this fairly reviewed
It is shocking such serious matters are ignored and discounted
After all, it is our votes involved in the outcome, regardless of the result
To think that fairness in something like this goes ignored, is appalling

*We all have a right to ask these questions

Unfaithful Path

Love uprooted to the core
Not by winds or torrents of rain
But by that of a mystical lore
To leave your mind in captivity I must refrain

Senses viewed the web of deception
Sights and sounds have testified
Dishonesty aired by perception              
Spoken words were weightless and denied

Selfishness and insincerity share the elements of apathy
Lack of wholeness for the fittest was discernible  
Tandem hearts strive on nurture and empathy
Unity without equality weakens and not reversible

You captured my love from your piercing arrow
I lacked the intuition to know of your deceit
Followed in your footsteps that narrowed
The path of promises is now obsolete

Discovery of arrows found breaks my trust
You could not let go the need to shoot
You held no love for me but only the lust
I will not forgive, I must leave this painful route

The Symphony

The Symphony

The mountains cried, “Praise to the Lord”! 
And the birds and beasts sang His praises.  

The firmament rose up to praise His name, 
The Infinite;The creator.

The soul of man reached up to his maker. 
As all the trees and grasses stood watchful,                                              

Mountains adored him; the mighty and the glorious.
The rain fell as the music to his mighty hymn.       

The wind made up the rest of the orchestra;  
A symphony to His greatness;All seeing and merciful.      

The Planets and the stars testified of His greatness;  
And infinity the everlastingness of His love.    

The mountains cry; “Praise the Lord”! 
The Eternal, the lovely one.

Battle Rap

Let’s take this outside
Your turn to be objectified
Necktied offside and brutified
Come step outside
Where you can no longer hide
Now you and me can collide

You’re worse than godzilla’s bride
Torpefied and vilified
Uglified, mean and evil-eyed
Always snide and undignified

Ringside, in your false pride
the eyes of Hitler recognized
Executing his genocide
Feeling justified nationwide

Lately I’ve been preoccupied
With thoughts of homicide
Accident by countryside
broadside you flip side 
See you land in the fireside
For all the misery aside
you put me through - testified

Is your meanness really classified
I’m no longer taking it - qualified
I‘m no longer hiding it - quantified
No more excuses - are you satisfied?

Germicide and pesticide
Have you ever tried
To drink a ton of formaldehyde
To soften up your cowhide

Now we can go back inside
Your reign of terror on override
You’re toast and you’re fried
You’re been hogtied and humanified
Stupefied and rectified 
Just as prophesized
