“She is my home of affection
and serene refuge.”

“Information is compressing into metamorphic intolerance
As we face two cosmic—terrifying entanglements…”

“that subtle serpent slithered
like a dark—vaporous spirit
rising from aches of stony deeps
to flood our peaceful home…”

“My dreams drag shadows
gouging cold chasms—churning
with wild darkening…”

“Imagine a wilderness trail that intertwines its story with the calm and soothing babble of a river’s youthful legacy…”

“When my fractured skies
rain sharp shards of azure glass…

“Science secures hope
our future’s vast wealth and health…”

“angst drowns me in fear
till lunar dreams flood my night…”

“one angry magpie
chases countless birds away…”

“each path led to hope
when we were God’s Promised Land…”

“it begins with a quiet sensation / the odd feel of a distal tremor / then it quickly descends into a panic of total emotional abandonment and physical desperation”

“Of all the dreams I could’ve dreamt—
I hesitated—tumbling numb into another
cavern—mined in my own bastions of fear…”

“…we can choose to find hope within God’s beauty
cherishing His devoted creations of divine nature …”

“wake me from this hell
guarding my dark—lucid dream…”

“I stand at the precipice of forever
where I can freely choose my destiny—”

“darkness bleeds
streaming tears of fear…”

“sculpting peace requires only a few small words
words mirrored in the divine gifts of happiness
but unleashed—fierce tongues spew evil spells…”

“blessings yearn for steady streams of pure hearts
patiently refined in the flames of God’s Spirit
hearts that grew up—suffering in the furnace of life…”

“if your heart is hurting—avoid the machines—
social media, pundits, politicos, reality TV
prophets who mold nations on indignations…”

“the days are getting shorter now
as dark storms spin a cunning entrance
gathering fears below my autumn realm…”
