#transgression
of This World, Not a single mote of dust exists, neither the peaks of Kilimanjaro - not this moment, not this breath, Not the beat of a drum, nor even eternity, and neither blood. Our Mother Whose name is of Art, praise to thy beauty, that drives the Beat of our Hearts. give us Our nights of Divine Passion, & bless us - so that we may never shy from the Absolute comfort of Solitude. Lead us to the persistence of Folly & the Destruction of Slavery. For thine is the love, & the mercy, & the grace and the Wild yearning. Forever, And Ever More.

Threat Land
O search me, inside and out then heal me. I beg You. Search me to heal me. Save me. Hold me. Don’t let go. Take a good look at the place that I dwell, See how my plight is being engulfed with great floods, the waters swirling in even unto my soul; Sinking into the violent sinkhole where nothing but doom awaits, drifting away from the lighthouse, rock house. Storm-proofed. Or so I thought. For it seemed unable to withstand continuous, raging storms Could it be that it was made from sand after all? I ponder to know; but how could I know? I have become foolish, as though, I know You not; I have forgotten Your face, longing, but I see You not. my heart is dull for my loyalties are wrong; I’ve forgotten to eat daily bread, Your Spirit groans. My throat is dry and parched, My eyes shed streams of tear, all too harsh They say, “Ask and you shall receive” But I’ve been asking, searching, slamming the windows of Heaven Yet it’s as if I'm still ever more drowning in depression. Oppression. Same old transgressions. Wrestling with wrong questions; Suffering in suffocating silence with emptiness and nothingness as loyal companions, Scarcely breathing in an ocean poisoned with my own thoughts It taints my heart with unbearable numbness Holy. Crippling. Sadness. My life is in need of the Anchor, the pseudo-anchors I’ve had are now shaken from their footings My vision fails as I wait for Your deliverance and saving. “Hear from Heaven!”, sweet, Lord, this is my 900th prayer! I’ve begged You. Still, I am begging You. I am exhausted, too desensitized, traumatized to swim. Come again to my rescue, teach me once more to tread, stay afloat, or stroke. Better yet pull me back to the safety of Your shore, for I still believe that in this life and to the next, there is more But only in Your presence will I see, what’s truly in store. While life may now appear desperate, nonetheless, I wait upon You. I cannot afford not to. For who is a pardoning God like You? Or who is Mighty enough to save but You? Who understands a thousand sorrows and guarantees unending joy tomorrow? Who can breathe life to the dead and render death stingless? I know no one — not even one — but You. Your sovereignty over the storms that grieve me will sustain me in my tears, it is Your grace at work even through my shallow fears And it’s not that You have not heard my cries. You have. You have answered a thousand times. Just that it’s not how I pictured it most of the time. But in the midst of grace denied, I got daily grace supplied. I know now that You truly know best When, where, and how to apportion your infinite grace to me and all the rest — So, Dear Father, grant me the grace me to trust. Satisfy me day and night with Your unfailing love, as you have sworn to my fathers from the days of old Cast my sins into the depths of the sea and let these sufferings work for me, Teach me to expect no less; rather pursue faith in the midst of distress for You are using it to shape me into Your image. I am appealing to Your zeal for Your own name. Quietly, I wait for the timing consistent with Your good pleasure Praying without ceasing, I will wait ’til You finally come for my eternal pleasure and saving, endless safe-keeping.

Man's Desperate Plea

the Hail Mary transgression: falling in love with me when it crosses over the line *guilty of the same, so even when I condemn the errant woman, with an ice block from a Northeastern pond of no soft forgiveness, which is still and yet, the only cutoff ending appropriate but you woman, deserve to learn that emboldened fantasy that crosses broken bold lines, is a jagged rot that doesn’t cure the dreamy unreality of the-cannot-be, it’s pouring hot water on scalding burns entrenched guess time to share that your fantasy is the number one commandment that this boy also violates routinely so he has a phd of experience, and the burn proofs when he thot he too could be, Cervantes, the knight errant, lover of the impossible woman I, guilty as charged by “The Duke,” am an idealist and bad poet, so many poet-women here I secret cherish at levels that are nonsensical, absurd, ludicrous and hold the fantastical fantasty of them dear, so close and so near, so mine wrote them each love poems, and they know it, now, here, in my confessional booth, my priestly punishment always the same, ten thousand Hail Mary’s, but I cheat the cohen priest, and just write another poem,* this one is about the line that never can  could  will be crossed, hail mary!

Hail Mary transgression: falling in love when it crosses over the line
How can I be better When I wasn't even good, To begin with? How can I not lie, When it makes me real When it gives me direction I know there is a truth in fear It plays the fiddle for guilt When faced with it Your body bets on red You ignoring it Doesn't make it go away It's all turned to **** anyway Maybe I'll die not even trying To **** myself I'll be ash and you'll be grey What's the difference Is all you'll say

Be. Better.
****** **** such a tragedy. Between kin bloodlines abominations of unrighteous unity. Speak loud and spare not, victims stop keeping it hidden. A sin so scandalous so forbidden. This secret is the reason for some insane things. Punishment on our Nation it brings. Stop the transgress it’s time to progress to detest the ugliness of ****** The sin of ****** put out from us such wickedness Crimes within the family. Outcry why oh God why. Emotions cry spirits die. Survival with scars somehow. Child kept secrets at least for now. Innocent sweet nectar just taken. Abused shattered then forsaken. Inwardly hating the humiliation. Lingering curse.   Bound to be rehearsed. A bloodline search, unthought-of   curse our generation. How can we cleanse this crime  from our nation. Child **** such outrage of wickedness. Such a corruptible trespass. Men lusting after little boys. Using them as ****** toys. Outcry iniquity.  Loss of innocent purity. Killers of purity, thieves, bandits doings malicious things in secrecy. Abused children in mind body and spirit. Hear their voices silently cry who’s close enough to hear it. Legal laws. Often with flaws Putting children in harms way. Hard to prove it allowing perpetrators often to stay. Courts judicial systems poor outcome. Criminals getting counseling with their worst still to be done It’s a unhealed spiritual condition. Warriors do our best to rid ourselves of this affliction. Wrongful unthinkable vexation. Impure affections of ****** connection. Between the bloodlines. Children with Children sexually learned crimes. Scares of a lifetime. People wake up let us not be blind. I beg you I pray. Let’s do more to protect our children in any way.

I'd share the sky with the clouds but I had to grow my wings but I had to lose my skin I dared to reach paradise but my brothers took my skin but my brothers used my skin and I couldn't let them win so I had to let this in now it's tearing us within and it's the fruit our sins cause I had to grow my wings but my brothers used my skin I made them crawl took my time nice and slow feels so good to lose control like a witness, watched them fall now I'm free to flee this skin but I will not shed this sin and I cannot be complete

Moth Dream (song lyrics)
I've scorned and derided, Needled and spited, Those, who are closest to me. I've cheated and lied, Vilified and decried, Those, who are closest to me. I've toasted many glasses With strangers in places Where I shouldn't have been. I've smoked and laughed, Admired strange *** In lands where I cannot be seen. But mention your name, And all seems so vain, Those promises I failed to keep; The losses that haunt me in sleep. Despite confessed sins, My transgressional whims, I know I've always been true; And when I bow out, My whisper will shout, Above all, I've always loved you.

Above All Else
i need you to keep me awake until the palace band stops playing and the trapped sand in my hands turns into sea glass i'm lit up but so easy to smother by a wayward breath of wind or the waxing moon's light temper the errant smoke will twist forever

No one ever wants to read a poem other than one about love. They’re only interested in thoughts from another that might just be about them. I mean it’s pleasant if you happen to read a poem that relates to you, but don’t just click copy, save, or reblog. Someone put their heart in to that poem; they shed tears and carved crevasses into their undoubting mind that everything is worth it. They found their worth. Some through words of love and transgression, and others through words of doubt, vexation, and sorrow. They’ve been able to overcome themselves, and now it’s your turn to take the wheel. Understand the words you want to say about the grass dancing in the wind, find the comparisons between yourself and the sun, and reach for the top of the clouds with the courage of a self-spoken soul. Not everything has to be about love, people just make it out to be. (j.a.r.)
