Revelations ch eleven verse eighteen.' (When I was a child
I acted like a child and thought as a child..? Yet now i am
Grown i must put away the things of childhood ' this last
Parable talks about me as a person..For I did once think
That the ' climate change ideaology' had merit.' And God

Vampiress Unmasked
u play the part of death so well
The drama queen - welcome to home sweet hell
Ring a bell
Yeah I know your tell
Succubus nocturnal always on the make
Far too nefarious to suffer a mistake
Dressed to thrill, eyes that will
Priceless, will never be left to pay the bill
Anywhere you go there is an unmistakable chill.
You want it

Fulfillment Unmasked
fulfillment is achieved,
when all is said and done, by the trek not the prize
ill conceived.
as way forward
when it's not a shallow, hollowed
reward
chest task
as memento
mask
fulfillment is achieved
when it's not a shallow, hollowed
mask

Unmasked Empathy
Inclusion
births Integrity,
As contentious Equality
bows to common Equity,
As Acceptance
longs, yet, for Appreciation,
As Sympathy
hopes for Empathy,
As being Me-Autonomous
moves toward becoming
profoundly We-Democratic,
As multicultural Awareness
embraces warm Inclusion
births Integrity

Unmasked
Unmasked,
her smile summons
hope held hostage by fear.
It feels good to feel free again,
assign yesterday's woes to memory
and once more, indulge in a hug
received in a world where
everyone's smile's
unmasked.

Cops Unmasked
There are policemen in the subways
Who refuse to wear their masks.
Ironic, since enforcement
Of that rule’s among their tasks.
When a patron on the platform
Asked some cops if they’d obey,
They at first pretended that because
His mask was in the way…
They couldn’t hear him but, of course,
Somebody filmed the scene,
So everyone could see the cop
Was simply being

Unmasked
The mask was torn from his face.
It lay broken, cracked, discarded.
The flawed illusion,
the imperfect facade of worth and value,
revealed at last for all to see.
Behold! A bare-faced liar.

Smashing Thrill
Indomitable Will
Unquenching Desires
To Conquer the World he Conspires
Now made to sit still
With a Mask … by his window sill

Nothing could stop

Mask Unmasked
She opened the door and tiptoed in,
golden luscious hair, tossed to spin,
her legs were naked,longer on heels,
Here she was with my evening meals!
Blue eyes smiling behind black lashes,
Mask on face and shoe without laces!
She adjusted bed to serve me food,
For man of romance, so far so good!
She poured me water, from a bottle,
My heart was

Unmasked
I see beyond today,
come closer..
hear what I say;
I see beyond your mask,
trust me..
it's all I ever ask;
I see beyond your pain,
be healed..
And live again;
I see beyond your cry,
hold my hand..
I'll dry your eye;
I see beyond it all,
turn to me...
And walk tall.

You Win Again,Virus
Running early at heavens gate
The late, at hells gate, wait
First blood and young too
Under forty but already blue
This virus stalks us all
Shades of the 1920 fall
Community spread fears, a reality true
Unmasked, they sing and shout, without a clue
The experts know enough, not
The politicians cover up the rot
The people are hungry for work from home, away
So

Heaven Unmasked
I walk the streets of heaven
all alone
blinded by the alabaster
GOLD
searching for the God
of endless names.
The streets are empty
under quarantine
the clouds all closed
no angels in the fluff.
While hell is flaming still
in merriment.
I wonder - was I chosen
or just sent?
There are no children here
they took a pass
refusing to accept
salvation's splash.
All the flags are white
no rainbows here
wherever GOD
