Apostate Doom

Behold, the Lord comes with thousands,
Of holy ones to pass judgment;
As they come with righteous demands,
To repent at your arraignment.

To execute judgment and convict,
Of all of your ungodly deeds;
For ungodly ways to inflict,
On another...

The Course

The Polish are not social creatures
Too ornery.
If you want happiness, go to England.
I really should lighten up
but too many real trophies to collect.
My watch … right on...

Curtain Call

Sitting here thinking
about the past
regret for time mislaid

What’s done is gone
all swan’s in song
— tomorrow’s yesterday

(The New Room: May, 2024)...

Morgan's

can’t sleep at night unless he’s there
when the curve of his neck smells like caramel
and the essence inside tempts my tongue
the warmth he grants my lungs and my heart and my liver
a warmth that denotes to love and care and euphoria
i...

Ciel

Des fleurs jolies dans
le mur, ciel beau, des nuages
se promènent avant des mes yeux.

 
Ces fleurs aient le mal
Ils color ce ne pas important
les nuages sont indifferent
avec les ordures ici.

Je suis une étrange dans ces cadeaux...

My Dog

Frolicking, jumping and running free,
I hope you know how much you mean to me,
Eyes like saucers and a button nose,
Peacefully sleeping I watch you dose.

Through mountains and forests and hills we'd climb,
I am so glad that you are mine,

My Cat

Your eyes are enchanting an emerald green,
Your coat is so soft as I watch you preen,
Tiny toes and tiny paws,
But one thing's for sure don't go near those claws!

You love your cuddles but your spirit is free,
And sometimes you say "don't...

When Internet Poet Friends Meet

When Internet Poet Friends Meet


 

Poet friends are a curious bunch,

They wear their souls on their sleeves

Without ever meeting they have a good hunch

What each and the other believes


 

They’re able to feel what other folks feel...

We Are the Ticktock of the Universe

Consider this, my friend.
Reflect on it with great intention.
Our brain provides images
of what our mind imagines.

Our brain is therefore like a camera
whose lenses are the human eyes;
whose ears provide the audio feed
by which we hear.

My green patch.

My green patch.

I had a barran patch
infront of my house.
I never thought,
i could turn it into my choice.

Oneday I scattered some seeds of grams.
Sky spread modarate rains.
I was elated
when I saw some peeping heads.

Then I put into...

In my hands.

A whisper of you
In my hands
Your tender life
Who understands
Your hands
In my hands
All your finds
From all those hands
In my hands.
In my hands.
Each breath with you.
In my hands.
Everything you make.
Each touch you take.
In my...

The feat of you.

Come back sweet love that bore no scars.
Come back belief safe in your jar.
Come back dear faith in all your glory.
Come back my best wish and tell your story.
Come back sweet hand that sat in mine.
Come back thoughts of innocence and devine.
