Fallen Angels

My lot in life has ne'er been clear.

To give. To take. To hide. To fear.

Back and forth my thoughts are tussled,

My feelings always muzzled.

Perchance, me thinks, my hist'ry speaks,

'Tis not my thoughts that guides the weeks,

but my heart that drives my every step

to find the fallen angels who from heaven's portal leapt.

A heart of beauty, a soul divine,

the sight of heaven from there resigned.

Yet still they yearn for the face of God.

To bask in the light while praising, awed.

Who pulls them back, refreshing the heart?

Who opens the window to a dream gone dark?

Only can the hand of God this spark provide

Through means unknown to bridge the divide.

As hearts are drawn to Love Divine,

The means unknown withdraws, by God's design.

Staggering

Staggering, a yoke on his back. Waiting, waiting for death, then life. Thorns, blood, smeared vision. Anguish, of a thousand pounds, people Watching, jeering, jabbing. He       falls. A friend, the yoke lifted, momentarily. Clothes tattered, knees bleeding. Needed strength, fopr one more step. Humiliated, to a mere man, since birth. Thirty-two years, gone? No. Ages and peoples, fulfilled. Clothes gone, a skeleton left, The nail,     the scream piercing your ears     cold metal between bone and skin.     Twice more,     The scream across the land, twice more.     A mother looks at her Son.     The earth trembles, centuries are freed. Date:  probably junior in high school

(Sum) Sand

  One inane grain.  Insane. It does not give life. A particle of silica. Contra ipsum invicta. Empty weak and worthless. Deftly meek and mirthless. So dispensable indefensible. Incongruously inconsequential. Untermensch and moral stench Sleeping on a parkside bench. Goo-goo-ga-joob. A house built on sand Gets buried in shit-made land. 7/25/09
