puzzle sketch

seeking shelter from the quiet
leaving empty glasses in the sky
she looked at me sideways and smiled
and her skin turned a deep sweet red wine




and i knew when i tasted her perspiring nape
that this spiraling drain we know as life
is littered with bitter berries and puzzling lies
just to heighten these undefined and miraculous moments in time

free porn

i had this profound spiritual moment at my weakest point
it was as if the god i did not know intervened into my ugliest breath
an ugly moment when i was within a selfish spiritual death cradle
it was as if the god i did not know sprinkled cosmic miracle dust
upon my personal chaos
it was as if the god i did not know caused calmness to settle
and love from a hand painted heaven to tremble my soul



i turned to the grey skies that day and made my desperate promise
'god i do not know you but - i give you my heart and soul'
'god i do not comprehend you but - i thank you and i will follow
the religion of your choice'
but no sound nor sign was heard nor seen in return
and no religious logo was shown to light up my failing life
so i took that upon myself
not to choose a man made religion at all
but to control my own skies



thus i accept your shaking heads and lost sighs
i even embrace your evil hate and frustrated scorn
i forgive you as if i was practicing a yet to be defined 'ism'
i smile through every day just as you - as if it is free porn

so predictable





why would a lethargic yawning dawn,
slowly burping out the previous night,
stumble upon a lost morning moon and sneer?
is it because that we remain planted
while invisible energy swirls?
is it because sometimes the remarkable
becomes predictable
and thus we all take all of our stars
and stones for granted?
or is it the just that our aging spiritual pendulum
ceases to sway on it's own?
