No Justice; No Peace

Increasingly with undeniable frequency.
Protestors picket.
With words to hear claiming,
Their valued democracy...
Has begun to being noticeably to cease.

They blame corruption.
And political dysfunction.
Lawlessness committed.
By those...

Radioactive Woman

I was born of steel and smoke
Sent here from a realm unknown
Guided through the eternal core
Breathing the magma as it filled my lungs

I was shaped by salt and stone
Hardened from the depths below
Veins weaved by stars of solid gold
...

My Creation

I see your face staring back at me
I don't understand what you're trying to say
If I could only hear your words
What would they be, if you could speak?

Every day when the sun sets
Your little mind will wander away
Dream to be, dream to see...

Returning Ransom

The wilderness and the dry land,
Shall be glad for the falling rain;
The desert shall rejoice as the sand,
Blossom with flowers start to gain.

It shall blossom abundantly,
Rejoice with the joy and singing;
Glory by shouting fervently,

Did You Hear Him Whisper?

On Pentecost, when all seemed lost,
Disciples went to where God sent
Them to an empty room.

They had to wait; not hesitate
For soon He would be where He should
To teach what future looms.

It was foretold and God controlled
Events that...

It Is Possible

'Hey?
Aren't you...?'

'No!'

'Do you know who you are?'

'Sometimes I do.
And there are times I don't.
The only thing I know right now,
Is where I'm going.'

'Where are you going?'

'Home.
Or back to my apartment.
I was told years...

Soul Cannibalism

One day my reality was harshly changed. It's like my mind was awoken and I learned to see things for what they really are. We have no excuses for this cold world. There's more then enough to go around to everyone. Why is there a single child...

Claudia

You are a special graduate,
With eighteen-years of charm!
I pray that God will never let
You come to any harm!

You have so many plans to fill;
Your journey has begun
To seek and find the kind of thrills
Where sadness will be "None"!

And...

The rags picker boy.

The rags picker boy.

I saw a boy of twelve or thirteen,
picking up rags from the dumps.
He was scerching among the dirts
as if scrounging some gold coins.

I came to know,
he was living in a slum.
Where light peeped hardly,
in the damp...
