Literature

War Torn Times

Trust is a lie spoken so we can be fine Trust is the bond and bullet of the heart In war torn times little pains more than the heart In war torn times this pain changes the heart In war torn times the heart is the only thing you own. The blood in your veins the only currency All we have in war torn times are those Childhood memories of love, home, and purity Home the seat of trust and family Of safety and love. Such sweet memories. All we have are mother’s meals and her shining Smiles telling us all those same old lies I give you bone and blood for nickels and dimes. Faith and power for the childhood’s fading memory. M

Some Altered Genisis verses and the story of Babel

010:008 And Cush begat Nimrod: she began to be a mighty one in the earth. 010:009 She was a mighty huntress before the LADY: wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty huntress before the LADY. 010:010 And the beginning of her kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. - 010:020 These are the daughters of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations. 010:021 Unto Shem also, the mother of all the children of Eber, the sister of Japheth the elder, even to her were children born. 010:022 The children of Shem; Elam, and

In war torn times little pains more than a heart In war torn times this pain changes a heart Trust is a lie spoken so we can be fine It is the bond and bullet of the heart From a body pumped with adrenaline. We give you bone and blood for nickels and dimes. Faith and power for the childhood’s fading memory. Here, Mother. Here, Father. Take your due. Take your time. Make me run and make me scream for that memory. With each hissing scream I finish your lesson. My voice the rifle’s barrel as you speak of trust, Of each favor unasked for and each unwanted lesson. I loved you then and love you still. I must Never forget the things you&

We Are Free by Bookmen, literature

Literature

We Are Free

I have found in modern times we are Free. Free from the monsters under our bed. There are no more banshees on the wind The closet monsters and devils are dead. Free from bogeymen and all the fey. No longer are there Knights in gleaming Armor. Fruit withered on the vine. Eden Has burned away and there is no Santa. Today we are truly free to play in This ever-lit world of human Understanding. Our dreams are the neuron’s Firing. Babel little more than geography And there is nothing where a rainbow was We are at last free to become human.

Home by Bookmen, literature

Literature

Home

Mother smiling always supporting us Our home like a shrine with her smile’s perfect shine Mother’s house is a place to be carefree. I remember the shining counter tops so pristine. I remember eyes never wavering. Piercing so deep they never missed a sign. No matter where we wandered home was always There and with food so warm for us to dine. Her sons rank and file marching to the beat Of their idea of father’s dream towing the line Home is a love you need never question, But you will all the same for nothing is fine. In war torn times the pain changes a heart Trust is a lie spoken so we can be fine

Dream by Bookmen, literature

Literature

Dream

There is a sleep I desire. A sweet dream to sooth my soul. Weeping sand, bleeding lies, I call to her, needing that ache fulfilled A shoot of whiskey, liquid bullet. A story lovingly crafted, textual bullet Castles of air, flash of darkness, gypsy’s dream, I find her. I speak with her again, my little madness, a goddess in my mind. No place is home until Theá has spent the night. Why am I clean I’ve asked. Because you are you she spoke. Why am I twisted I’ve pleaded. Because you are you she cooed. My little goddess in the doorway, my dark oracle. She wraps her arms around me as I stare out the door. You don’t h

Running from the Sunset by Bookmen, literature

Literature

Running from the Sunset

Running from the Sunset. Frost and sea beneath our feet. Steel wings. The warmth of memories Coiling in my mind, But so to a dread, a sorrow. Sharp like the cold When the sun sets I’ll be home No more in the lands of Tommy Atkins Steel wings fly us Through wind and frost Over seas and forests The sunset will catch me The last day shall end Sending me home Bittersweet love Honey and blood Victorian Masks Beyond seas and forests The sunset shall find me Enthroned and trembling Yesterday is the day Tomorrow the night Today is twilight Yesterday stands beside me Tomorrow stands beside me But sorrow shall find me at sunset

White chalkboard cleaned and ready White chalkboard green Write on it now and draw your thoughts Three families so separate They hardly know each other, but But they know the Contradiction Gypsy soul riding an elephant Lotus in his cup while mother drinks wine and eats bread Cover her ears for Morpheus whispers again I hardly know what I say these days, As Morpheus whispers to me A thousand labels and titles. Barriers constructed to be honored and then I breach them, But none of this is new. A virgin’s trust and A sage’s wisdom In my hand again A mother’s love and A father’s pride In my hand again I stand tall ne

Angry by Bookmen, literature

Literature

Angry

I don’t like to feel anger. What good does it do me? I like to be calm. I like to be simple. What do I want? That’s easy. Just let me wander. But they don’t like me to wander. Who? Friends, family, society itself. They want us to stay put. “Why travel if you’ll only be there a few days?” “What’s the point?” I tell them I need to wander and they tell me to sit down. Sit and work, sit and work, sit and work, sit and work. Even still I don’t like to get angry with them. So what if it pisses me off. Stay home again? No I’d rather not. I’ll take a walk. “Only five day

The Gender Swapped Story of Creation

Book 01    Genesis 001:001 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 001:002 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was        upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon        the face of the waters. 001:003 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 001:004 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the        light from the darkness. 001:005 And God called the light Day, and the darkness she called        Night.
