Militia of Man

A war of demons, angels, and men
From highest peak to dankest den
Souls and spirits in eerie lights
Burning through the darkest nights
Hell and Heaven come to task
Warriors behind a mask
Demons scourge and angels heal
Until the morning church bells peal

Running Away with Myself

Thoughts like a shotgun spread
Like the hairs on an old monk's head
Pulling out the stone inside
Leaving a candle almost dead
And all the lightbulbs fried


God bless,

Open Your Eyes

Running Blind

The blind man runs fast and far
Straight into a deathly fall
"Why run?" replies "I gave up the war
And feared bumping into a wall."
He stops. "Who's there? Who asked me that?"
"Why care if you have given up?
Why hope again to step to the bat?
Will you not join me to sup?
Will you not willingly pick up your cross
And walk with me a while?
Or have you given in to loss
And refuse to smile?"
"Lord, my Lord, please let me see"
"Then see, then rise, then follow me"


God bless,

Light Haiku

Feast of light
Turning, storing, growing
Stillness of life


God bless,
