PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

a cold afternoon spent

in the devil's backyard

playing quietly by oneself

looking for my one favored trump card

'Love'

a mother's

a son's

a devoted lover of life in general

that I am

and unashamedly so that I freely admit

nothing harmful can touch me now

only 'happiness, light and God'

I am only more inspired by the tragedy of

my imagined surroundings as well as that

of my uncorrectable past

hideous beast that it is!

as I lounge alone in my cluttered room

to write

these incinerating visions carry me

beyond that which lies in mere physical

sight

my theatrical thoughts feel weightless

as they lift me from the personal to the

objective

inner strength is truly a golden asset

bequeathed to one by the very grace of God

alone

the beloved Father has freed me of my before

heavily chained creativity

in my body

this aging shell I now occupy

my hungered spirit expands

REACHING out further to the Lord

'Jesus Christ'

to me the two most beautiful words in the

entire world's multitude of languages

Happy Birthday Dearest Eldest Divine Brother!

I love you more even than I yet know!..........
