He Will Not Refuse
I asked…
when, Lord, when?
when will I understand?
when will my heart say amen?
I asked…
why, Lord, why?
why can’t I see the light?
why does my aching spirit cry?
I asked…
where, Lord, where?
where is the meaning in this life?
where is the faith and hope in prayer?
I asked and He answered me
hear the gentle in His truth
His peace as I bow...

Blueprint for Amity
you are that feral fox
that’s wild and wary
not easily won over
needing to be approached with caution
ever so gently to be coaxed to trust
opening up in bits and bites
get to know me slowly
get used to me in increments
i’m an acquired taste
a rose blooming in its own time

The Empty VesselWhen love leaves,
it isn’t a soft rain—it’s a thunderclap,
splitting the sky,
leaving you standing in the middle of a field
with nothing but the echo of what should have been.
You become the broken branch,
quivering in the storm,
a kite lost without its string,
floating aimlessly,
a disconnected dream searching for home.
You forget who you were
before love wrapped itself around you,
tethering...

ReclaimedI did not leave like a storm.
I left like sediment—
quiet, heavy,
having learned the language
of sinking.
You called it love,
but I was always the chalk outline
beneath your ego’s bootprint,
the echo that apologized
for being stepped on.
You didn’t raise your voice—
you lowered the ceiling.
I lived crouched in rooms
where sunlight had to ask permission,
where even the mirrors learned
not to make...

Standing In Someone's HeartStanding in someone's heart is important
But if it does not exist
I better stand on my own
Each person's point of view is different
If you don't want to suffer
Don't compare yourself to others
It's better to be alone
That to be with someone else
Compromising your relationship
And not happy to live life as you want it to be....

Best SwordsmanThe sword that pass through blue fire
Would be the most beautiful sword
The mind that has overcome the most trials
Would be the strongest heart also
Those who are patient reach the end
Will be the best Swordsman of all....

PeaceFull MusEcologyRadically erroneous monotheists
have mistakenly substituted
our co-infested
co-operative
co-invested
co-empathic pantheistic HolySpirit's
naturally healthy
resonant EarthTribal bodhisattva powers
of polyculturing communion love and peace
for messianically monoculturing luster
and loneliness
unnaturally unhealthy
irreligiously irritating dissonance
degeneratively devilish
and idolatrous
and disrapturously ecocidal
false-god demonic
anthro-supremacist power
Struggling to survive

Together
in our darkest night
the stars shine bright
with a warm embrace
quietly our hearts race
fond memories of days gone by
assure us love is not meant to die

Some people
Some people think that they’re always right.
Some people ache to find a fight.
Some people would smile while lying to you.
Some people would burn the heart out of you.
Some people never know when to quit.
Some people destroy themselves to be super-fit.
Some people will never know empathy.
Some people love the birds when they sing.
Some people would climb...

Mirror HouseI remember when I followed you in,
looking for my mate.
In this mirror land, I can't understand
this confusing state.
At once, you appear, then you disappear
in this mirror house,
running and racing, losing and chasing,
a wheel and a mouse.
Is it you and me, or knockoffs I see,
none that I can feel,
leaning and lurching, forever searching
for ones that are...

Loving YuckLove without
Love within
Love where I am
where I’ve been
Beginning to think:
far too much abundance
of this foolish, loving folly,
so I kicked my
wagging tail collie --
loving view~
it just ain’t fair! – attempting to escape,
I journeyed to the zoo
wouldn’t you know it,
two loving ape there too
along to the park
high in birch nest
spied I a pair of...

Plagued By MemoriesMemories of whip-lashing words
steeped me deep into a roil of rancid oil
my soul a weeping blistered sore
my heart a gangrene amputee
pus-green-memories rupture to plague me
infection still oozes from core’s moaning cracks
in a pale cringe I sniffled the floor my confidant
a split lip half-wit tamed by the maim of his...

Woman Friend RequestA woman accepts your friend request
That means she accepted your friendship
Not your offer of courtship.
When a woman send you a friend request
It means she wants to be your friend
Not your girlfriend.
When a woman comment on your status
It means she is social not flirty.
When she likes your comments
It means...

Because We Are Before And NowBecause we have all the leading roles
See, you and I are sitting in the same row
Even if our roads are separate
See, you're walking, and I'm walking beside you.
Because we have separate homes
See, we still see each other often
You in other block, mine next to you
See, you're cooking, I smell the food.
Because we are friends so...
