The Last Crucifixion

It’s naked reality-
Man suffers from the fatal ailment
Of genesis-the safety valve of creation
Serving as guardian
Against theologies of pagans,
Uprisings of gentiles, heresies
Of Samaritans;
For the dust is a
Constant threat to the gates of heaven
Its …

A Search for Oneself

I came when every
Nook in your life had been given away;
It was worse in your heart
For there wasn’t any space left even
For another throb.
What you offered me
Was heaven among thorns and crosses;
Bliss in the …

Spires of Emptiness

In my deepest consciousness
I felt it was too easy to give up
Any part of my humanity.
Poignantly, I realized that what had
Been carved out, was my best part.
Now emptiness is choking me to death.
In a …

Crime of Indifference

Jesus, I wasn’t there when they proclaimed your Lordship
I wasn’t there when they declared the heavens
Like they did once with Pompeii
I wasn’t there when they publicly displayed
Their faith and professed obedience to your cross
Jesus, I …

Cracks In My Cross

Jesus,
You showered me with talents
Too much for me to handle
Almost all of them though
I wasted in the dark
So little if at all I shared
With others
Admittedly
So useless I’d been
Jesus,
You filled my life …

Equinoxial Flashes

Lord, step into my stillness
Blow a vernal wind into my motionless spirit
Sketch upon the centerfold of my conscience
Even just an illusion of my being
Lord, touch me and smooth out the
Rugged edges of my existence
Sprinkle some …

Orphans of Eternity

By heritage
We cross bridges of sand
As we carry our burdens alone,
Seldom a dove offers a song
To lull our weary souls.
Savagery isn’t just a feature of the serpents
It’s everybody’s last defense
For even in the galaxies

Promethean Odyssey

In pink ecstasy
Let thoughts of thine
My senses permeate
In rock bottom sorrow
Faith in thee strongest
In helplessness so utter
Thy footprints
My spiritual crutches
In bounty
Let greed a fiction be
Indifference a total stranger
In fame let pride …

Hostaged Soul

Don’t monkey around with dreams, my friend
It’s a risky game
No one really knows
When the nightmare stalks
Don’t play with the tides too often
They can be so deceiving
The surface currents chart never
The fathoms underneath
Don’t tie a …

The Roses and the Cross

This time I send her roses
Of the most exquisite
And exotic strains
Gently plucked from the loveliest
Gardens of the deities
Ribbons of gold, diamond and rarest
Of the gems
Guild them like rainbows
O’er sparkling prairies
Ah, my heart …
