Today, Christian believers still
Reject one of God's commandments,
As to God's words, "Thou shalt not kill."
No religion sanctions war, but
Sins of omission are still sins;
God's will isn't open to debate.
Religious leaders aren't good at
Edifying God's written will.
Shamefully, many willingly
Sully the meaning of God's words.
Interpreting God's commandments,	
Oft justifies Man's transgressions.
No one can override what God
States is a

Fractured Soul

Eyes surrender to the amber of the morning light 
Beguiled and stagnate is the mind from the somber of the night 
And again begins the whispers of the voices from ago 
And to its torment colorless ignites the thoughts that flow 
Questions rise to surface though elusive as the wind does blow 
Blood stained hands

David, Psalm 32, Lords Prayer In Matthew 6

My sins are covered, sang David
Joyful in Psalm 32
My transgressions forgiven, he added
Sing songs of Deliverance
Teaching Disciples (us) to pray:
Jesus did not mention "sin"
Matthews Gospel, 6: 9-13
But returns to forgiving again
At prayers end: caution
"If you don't, Abba won't"
But David's psalms show his Love
For He whose Ears always attend 
None talked so much to Yah
As King

In peace she consumes curds and whey
Miss Muffet on tuffet will stay
The spider retreats
While she giggles and eats
Now armed with a can of bug spray


Author's note: Apologies to mother goose. I never liked the original. I thought it was a destroyer of childhood innocence. 

Why can't we enjoy what we do without being bothered? I

As the sun begins its return
mall parking is available
shadows pencil mark their growing length
as breezes in Canada huff and puff
the ten day forecast  leads listeners to therapy
super markets or hardware stores
rubbing salt into not yet open wounds
breakfast, accompanied by a canine chorus
howling in a growlish taunt
as squirrelly churchgoers cover their ears
a child peeks out

Always polite she has done it again and again

Kind apologies in apoplectic reverberations


‘I am ever so sorry’ and never an honest lie

‘I promise mea culpa won’t happen again’


Regret is never far from her mindful tongue

‘My fault entirely just slipped out of my mouth’


‘Please forgive me my hurtful transgressions’

‘I beg you’ she lays prostrate before the

My Transgressions

I gave destiny a different version
As I wallow in self pity
With stains on my dignity

I err out my transgressions
Submissively
As trickles of tears
Caress my skin filled with regrets

I have failed in my mission
And I seek redemption,
So speak to me of heaven’s grace.

A scornful attitude towards others
Inordinate in longing for status
Concuspicent of the carnal desires
Evoke wrath in ideas responses
Overindulging in consuming foods 
Copying the traits and abilities
Showing laziness in the own duties

My Transgressions

The glowing sun is just about set
And I have a glass of wine in my hand
A candle burns in a robust flame
My beloved snuggles in my embrace,
There’s a prospect of romance in the air--
And Muezzin* calls the faithful to prayer…

O God
Pardon me my evening prayer!

My evening has blossomed
into a promising night
Her long and lustrous hair

Violent Erratic Transgressions

My mind set to overdrive
my mindset erratic
it all comes too easy now
as I make blatant transgressions

For I am the anti-God
simply don't give a nod
to the rest of creation
in an against everything nation

release of my stranglehold
to let doors fly open
for if your too narrow
how will order fit in?

I kill the conflict
as it comes to arise

Stymied By Moral Transgressions

While the church of today continues to wrestle with prominent issues,
like those of leadership, moral credibility, or fidelity of her members;
society remains critical to address certain weakpoints already at hand,
those seeming endless lawsuits against the clergy and religious members.

Moments in time unfold the wreckage of moral credibility, trust, and confidence;
it’s like a downfall of the

Are you death
Why yes I am 
Is that who you called
Is that what you want

I am also life
If that's what you want
So which is it you seek

Centuries of faith I see 
Have passed between us
There is love between us

Is there, not sure I see
You might wanna get your 
Priorities in line between us

If I am
