Long Lamb to the slaughter Poems

Wind sings praise, and the wings who soar
silent adoration – soft as the light
climbing the skies, breathless and alive
rising in murmurings who bless the night
mounting impressions of the sea’s gentle tides,
flowing with worship, admiring the...

The Lamb to the slaughter*
submitted freely to sovereign will
fulfilling heavenly role to die in my stead – 
with priceless holy sacrifice and precious blood to pay 
for my ransom, as a sinner condemned for everlasting...

His Life, for thirty pieces of silver was sold
And, with a kiss, was callously betrayed,
Just as the Scriptures accurately foretold,
Each prophetic word was obeyed.
Like a Lamb to the slaughter he was led;
The soldiers punched him...

Your everlasting door
Is of ever old
My broken vessel you died for
Your jealous wrath is rather bold 
Your breath giveth life
Before honor is humility 
For your word is pure ,without...

i hear voices in my head,
 vociferating out endlessly,
 with each thumping heartstroke,
 intermitted by eerie visions,
 im haunted by fate

Stupid flowers,
Eaten by a stupid sheep.
It’s all so ignorant,
My efforts wasted away. 

Blind little lamb,
Eating flowers so absentmindedly,
Flowers like the ones I found on the hill,
Where we would watch clouds pass by.

And the clouds would...

I am tender and moist,
Yet, I came from dry ground.
Though in sight there was death
There was life in my sound!
There is no beauty in me
That one would lust
I was plucked out in my prime
As those...

It’s like a lamb to the slaughter
The thing is she KNEW
KNEW that beneath the alluring smile
And enigmatic eyes
Lay
A monster.
A demon.
Inhuman cold skin cluing in
The lamb
Her shepherd leads you to Hell.
But she’s drawn in 
By seductive...

I fear for the future of many young and innocent.
The unfortunate ones whose childhood was spent
without responsible parents who couldn't care less.
Abandoned or runaways, alone and in dire distress
of what to do. To survive they...

If I be, for my God, a symbol of love,
Then may He bear for me, a decree:
That I be a lamb, ready to be offered
To the skies, to reach the glory of His essence
So that...

How dare you spit upon his garb! 
This peaceful bredda who by nature only loves, 
When you should have been his Rasta queen 
Your ghastly behaviour drew a scene 
And I- woman just like you...

Five Arab Men


In the dead of night, asleep in my bed
Suddenly, upon a hill as bright as day
A vision before me, or am I misled

On this asphalt road,to the left, a tractor trailer stands
Waiting as...

he stood 
among the swasticka's 


a star 
in the center of chaos


and still
he couldn't comprehend


with ticket in hand

with lost hope 


he was bound and gagged 
by religion...

I’m stuck in this prison
this Hell that I’m in
How long has it been
since the day
all happiness left me?
Playground days-
the time of no caring
are lost in a maze
as life is wearing me down
They say it gets...

Christ was led like a lamb to the slaughter, 
To make me, a born sinner, His daughter, 
His death on the Cross, the best love story, 
That washed my sins and clothed me with glory;

Lamb to the slaughter 

I didn't ask for this life;
I was created in it;
The color of my skin;
It doesn't matter;
I God's vision;
Created by Him, with my mother and dad;
Bullied and mistaken;
Mistreated politicized and misshapen like...

{He}

Moisture wells from in to out

The sky drapes its dress

Quiescently, you tilt your head and pout

Your shoulder kisses a tiny tress


Vapor is breathed on the glass

A tantalizing blaze flaring from behind

Fumbling your hair into a...

A fallen angel 
walked one shady path 
where the demon creeps 
written from the blood of man
in the darkened chambers deep 

A dark need
that feeds the demon
Like a wolf wears a mask 
Dressed as a...

(Inspired by Isaiah 53)

It pleased the Lord to bruise Jesus 
On Him was laid the sin of us 

Stricken, smitten, Man of Sorrows 
To make secure our tomorrows 

Led like a lamb to the slaughter

He humbly accepted to lay down his life  
To put an end to the enmity and strife.  
This was the Father’s will,  
So that the sacrifice would serve as a seal. ...

Gentle tributary
of a hill-born river
suburban lake caressed
acres of fertile land -
paddy rich, growing fields

Schools of fish raced at depths
water-birds, herons, egrets,
warblers, mynas, pipits,
swallows, shikra, barbets, owls
Bowl that held varied lives

The surrounding city
rapidly scales cloud- heights,...

Oh that I had shunned his first embrace.
And turned away his luscious kiss.
Too young to understand love,
Afraid to feel him near,
Filled with emotion.
He took control.
Dreams rampant.
Thinking 
Love.

I should have dated other people.
Instead I clung to...

 Hanging  from  branches of eternity

You tell me of unimaginable things,
no lungs or breath to ever unspeak.
I am pushed into sparse mindscapes,
unseen acres allow endless germinations.

Yesterday is that which obsessively remains,
where I am selflessly engulfed in tomorrow.
In my ignorance to...
