Paul Amrod Poems

Believing in the principles spoken from the Prince of the Stars
she walked proudly through this impossibly cold world of callous.
"Imagine this environment otherwise as our counselor sustained.
If everyone heeded the love of neighbor and the refusal of malice
...

Approaching the world's stage as a sanctimonious soul-saver
Hiding your horns under your mitre with a proverbial smugness
Healing the forlorn with your hocus-pocus selling a wafer
Human suffering posted on your church walls as token ugliness
...

Holding you enveloped in my arms
Feeling affections with each tender sigh
We coast as a twosome in our unspoken charms
as a nightingale chirps to succulently satisfy
...

The process of Nature's esoteric gorgeousness brings exuberance
or sentimental tears overcome by its beatific sumptuousness.
The reawakening of the buds sprouting in a subtle luxuriance
or the earthly aroma which travels through our dawning hours.
...

Being given the most profound gift is an extraordinary experience.
We leave the sandbox of domination hoping to separate will and pleasure.
Bringing an internal gratification with the assistance of providence
warrants the revelation of true desires evolving our special nature.
...

He played the euphonium in a high-school band
The instrument, the trombone he did reprimand
He found the tone quite annoying and nasal
Performing at football games was absolutely anal
...

Bonifacious was a bishop, a sacredly blessed beneficiary,
who was rigorously trained by the Romans as a mercenary.
He was sent to Turkey to round up newly-fangled Christians
who conjured up theorems of forgiveness as their mission.
...

Graceful, spiritual and arabesque-like
Our life seems like that of fairies
In gentle dances to turn the void,
To which we sacrificed our being and present.
...

I envy your sweet release and your charmed indecisive ambivalence
fading between logic and fantasy searching for the true bona fide sense.
Waiting for a spiritual inspiration to further your innovative exploratory
nature which supervenes the occurrences of your ingenious story.
...

Grumpy Humpty has been creamed and impeached
All of his insidious dreams won't ever be reached
All of his maneuvers will be hung on the wall
Tripping on a banana peel outraged and appalled
...
