38/M/Jerusalem I'm Paul. I'm a human being. You are too. I'm glad we have that in common.
Fresh seafood! So important..! What other creature... Could come up with this..? Boiled alive! A lobster's fate! Poor invertebrate! To die in such a fashion... Boiled whilst living! As some winning human specimen... Casually prepares a plate! A great way to die, no? Incredible intelligent animal! Could have crustacean social life... Instead bound by rubber! Claws forced upon themselves... By wicked ape creation! Poor shelled thing... Not considered a person!

Why Keep Kosher?
Vain emotions guide how one sees the world 'Tis a way of life for one who's a child True passion & purpose exist in the ether A resilient one growing, wicked & wild

Inspiration When it hits Has one near the end of one's wits Each word I'm posting Keeps me from ghosting Instead, I will write poet tree Maybe in verse or mayhaps in free It does not matter so much the whole lot... The feeling of ending is the feeling I've got It's what happens when there's no more writer's block..!

Overcoming Writer's Block
Seeing the sort of someone In white shirt, black hatted Knowing what goes on behind closed doors Crude & lascivious But before your Maker..? Oh, on all fours..!

Religious Hypocrite
It's not a matter of the Creator needing to be praised But rather how such praise elevates humanity

Religious Aphorism
Through thousands of storms Through bitter winds and snow Through distant foreign lands where few are known to go Through abattoirs that house rotting flesh and swarming flies I travel ever forward, for I will not be denied I'll brave Hades where tortured souls wish for brief respite Fabled Fields of Elysium? I will not spend a night I'll be not seduced by pleasure, tarried not by pain Nothing will deter me I travel not in vain So still I journey onward Through dark valleys where but shadows lie Through unforgiving deserts Parched by endless summer sky I wade through lifeless sloughs that would persuade one to resign Though not one on a journey of as great import as mine Beyond the words oft spoken By those who would be heard For every word's a prejudice and I will not be deterred Holy texts and ancient tomes seem to me devices To make a man forget his way and lure him into vices And the aftermath of entropy All creation's derogation Tells me my journey's at an end I've reached my destination Standing face to face with God I know I'd best not linger Unto Heaven I raise my fist Extending my middle finger

Good Job
Strange days of boredom Oddly flavored Typical, worn out... And hardly favored Routine What is necessary Camouflaged verbiage Made playfully literary & some approximation Made writ and authoritarian That's all the information Fit for publication

Verbosity
All police are facilitators of **** It's a truth no logical mind can escape! If in form of abusive officers Or what happens behind bars... All these copper oinkers Regardless of any "good" they may try to do From this fact there is no escape: Being a cop ensures people get *****
