Dearest church, body of Yahweh
You are counted upon to be
The bride of Christ, and yet somehow
You have lost sight of this ideal
...
Lord Almighty, lustrous above
I can barely see the arbors
For lack of moonlight on this hike.
Each Step I take is a struggle
...
How Much more blood will you shed?
How many of your people
Will bleed into your country's sand
By the flick of your selfish wrist?
...
You faceless freedom fighter
After these long months
Of tempestuous battles
In Syrian suburbs
...
Syrian rebel, fighter
For the ouster of Assad
Yes, war can strain the soul,
But how could you let your goal
...
As the sun rises
On a cool spring morn
Mt. Hood is completely covered in snow
And is painted a light shade of yellow
...
A river have I to travel
For what purpose I do not know
But here I am, heading downstream
Thrusting the oar through the water
...
Music resonates through the room
And, dressed in tribaldress and bra
You sychronize your fair motions
With the composition's rhythym
...
Lead marks swept across the page,
Forming words, sentences and ideas,
Articulating fundamental truths,
An extension of the voice
...
Approach the porcelain bowl
Pants are unzipped, thing is whipped out,
A stream of yellow Is released,
Much to my impatient relief
...
