I Am Now Bullet Proof

I Am Now Bullet Proof

I AM NOW BULLET-PROOF Why did I say those words? Why did I tell her that it was over between us? Pulling each of these syllables like as if I was pulling the rose’s blossoms and the unfortunate thing was that she had over-lived a definite six months in my life but an unwritten life at that. Celine, and that was her name and nineteen ninety one that was the year and she was my first cut into the treacle world of relationships. During [...]

The Very Height of Absurdity

The Very Height of Absurdity

…the very height of absurdity Behold, at the furthest edge of reality Where primordial chaos battles with ancient night At the point where the mind’s eye can no longer see There stands God, illuminating with His heart’s light When all of our science and all of language fail When fair Reason reaches her bright limits and dies On the uncharted seas of absurd faith set sail To the Elysian lands [...]

Champion

Champion

Sun glitters, breath of Hell plays solemn songs of the Devirish across scorched sands. Nothing stirs in the Oasis Damned found in this harsh burning land. Hade’s wind stirs, evil thoughts weave and blurs. Carrion-birds soar like blackened ghosts on updrafts hot; eyes of the damned anticipating mid morning’s ruby-stained grisly meal. Oasis littered with the dead of many; Slaughtered where they stood by an avenging [...]

Islam, Peace and Prison

Islam, Peace and Prison

Former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, while talking on Meet the Press about President Obama’s faith being Christian said, “He’s always been a Christian. But the really right answer is what if he is (Muslim)? is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country? The answer’s no, that’s not America. Is there something wrong with some seven-year-old Muslim-American kid believing that he or she could be president?” [...]

Life Begins At 60

Life Begins At 60

My Sense of Humor: Life Begins at 60 I would not know… I wrote this when my friend turned 60 and I refuse to say how old I am since I feel and act much younger. Dedicated to everyone who forgets their age and goes on with their lives with a smile: Life begins at 60 so they tell and they say Your bones become really brittle and you need more vitamins each day Life begins at 60 I really would not know Being young and in such [...]

Unseen Presence

Unseen Presence

When life becomes hurried and choices are unclear, There is an unseen Presence who will surely get us there. We may not reach our destiny,at our chosen time But there is someone wiser whose help we’ll always find. He’ll give us hope to find our path,a light to guide the way. His Strength will pull us up the hill and help us see the day. He knows the road is rough,he’s been there long before. At Calvary he gave his [...]

The Color of Fear

This was the cold reality Mr. Lee, his father, grandparents and siblings had to face in 1985. Feelings of fear, anger, rage and revenge soon replaced the numbed existence of shock. Instead of letting these intense, understandable reactions control his life Mr. [...]
