  • 20070502-Fiddler’s Burns

    Nero and Caesar cast their net.
    A great test with blood, tears and sweat
    Division through burden of debt
    ‘Billowing’ winds arise
    Territorial prison threat
    From south east donning guise

    Unity between head and ass
    Distinctions blurring of the mass
    Fire burning and brimstone gas
    Heroes of tolerance
    ‘Ring of fire’ where Satan’s last
    Give them ‘ball of’ a chance

    Her saving grace of one, four, four
    Troops storming by fighting God’s war
    Fall! Alleluia! Bag of whore!
    Wrath as believers priced
    Keepers hold keys to ways of door
    Servants with eyes of Christ

    Anoint them well with fresh Beast oil.
    Blood brothers call from up the soil
    Forgive Lilith like friend and foil
    New cons serves agendum
    Of victory — the enemy’s spoil
    Paradise lost for some

    Four dreadful yet wondrous stanzas that Burns.

    Nature:

    Felt quake at eight thirty tonight
    per atomic clock to my right sight.
    After three minutes later without fright
    heard copters above without sight
    and felt the low flyby with might

    Family:

    Did not feel all this much excite
    after hearing ‘Mar’s’ hothead ignite
    about religious icons’ right
    at my ‘Onion’s’ house by invite
    and about my advising slight.

    Growing tired from the incite
    of miscommunications with fight
    and disregard for the polite
    who perceive this life with bright light
    and those things and folks that are alright,
    especially the white knight

    A poem of two, five-lined stanzas and of one, six-lined stanza with eight syllables in monorhyme.

  • 20070228-Deny Sighs

    We are dead in your holy eyes
    and believed in your plaintive cries
    as we continue these playful lies.
    You prefer the likes of cream pies
    and the fluffy clouds in disguise
    with no more trails left in the skies.

    As you bid us your fond goodbyes,
    you will forget our sad demise.
    As your love for us slowly dies,
    you will remember our supplies.
    This paper tiger will surprise.
    Fools are without discernment wise.

    A poem of two, six-lined stanzas with eight syllables in monorhymes.

    Tree of Life Flower of Life Stage

    Turn this skeleton key upside down.
    Thy kingdom comes via the crown.
    Pray from the beauty of the heart
    and fill with love from you impart.
    With voiced foundation, sing your praise
    through a sacred name of Yah-Ways.

    Test us not with your human lies.
    Trespass not with your godly eyes.
    By the six winged one flying,
    be not afraid for complying.

    Attempt at sonnetina quarto with eight syllables in a sestet of aabbcc pattern and a quatrain of aabb pattern.

    What is water?

    H2O
    Two parts hydrogen.
    One part oxygen.
    Makes water.

    Refreshing.

    Patterned similiarly to poem under my blog entry of ‘20061016-Truth Tickles.’

  • 20061016-Truth Tickles

    What is Truth?

    Truth tickles.
    It makes me laugh.
    It makes me laugh more.
    It is the biggest joke.

    Whatever.

    I remember reading an article online and discovered an interpretation of my Truth. A model for ‘20061016-Water Molecules.’
