Art poetry


The stage was dark as evil being
souls play in coal
only repent
one man
hanging
on a cross
burning
hot ash

heart takes me a long to be a master of rate
willow dresses tree in live braches singing
with the wind in a sea of breeze

place is gore rated in this
haven crawling faster than sun and moon
taking a heretics please in silver left in a tray
cost to be greed please what is not taken

no lights to guide healing presence
as edge pledges itself on a rock cast
caught in temper placed from pentacle higher than man

home comes to be
what is pleased
love songs
played in heaven
as kiss of truth
finds hearts screaming
night is steaming past

all man can feel
no pretence
only embers of reach
stars burn bright
in a black blanket
filled to hilt with swords
grapes of wrath bleed cold

stroll to willing
accept life works
dare in fair sleep
leaves peace not
yet held to press
confess hate
empty plate
as all is done

lady takes a lead in hiss
as snake draws next in victim
to venom of streams seeding
able figures to reapers blade
fade last scene
in red as the cloud
takes reality past
lovers of drama
going home
passion a score
in more need
pleaded but save
man kind

last feeling free
candle twinkles in flames
as scorn ripples past storm
evil to ramous needs
hand in hand steal thunder
clouds to sand turn fate
spirit takes in awe
last of love
camel broke
straw as needle
came in light
hidden

richman
bore
to
hell

May I reply with this!!

“Love Greater Than Sorrow”

To sacrifice and understand

The void inside my heart

Is to embrace the open space

Between heart and soul

Trying to escape the thoughts

Through snares of darkness

As silence gathers hope

Desire and beauty

Go their separate ways…

To sacrifice and understand

The greater meaning of sorrow

The void inside my heart

Life the motionless phase

Between heart and soul

And as silence gathers hope

Greater than sorrow

Bearing the weight

Of unshared dreams

Greater than sorrow

The sacrifice

And the understanding

To love with all I have

And hate has the power

To destroy

Ever joy
