CANNOT HOLD

Got struck on the spiky gate
a half-eaten deer
shattering the panther.

Daggers were drawn.
Terrier was in the glass house.
Canine discretion to draw the blood
between friends.

A crisp murder of a terrorist.
spotted face of the relentless moon
sending flames to jasmines.

The little skulls popping up
amongst rumors.
I scream in a celestial leap.

I could walk in ruins
of incarnations
preaching for death.

flash in the pan

przekrwionym okiem
boga
spoglądam
na siebie
bez litości
jak na wydrążony kokon
owada którym byłem
zanim zrozumiałem
że zardzewiała struga brudu
w pękniętym klozecie
piękniejsza jest niż
urwana ręka madonny

bloodshot eye
of god
I gaze at myself
no mercy
as at hollow cocoon
of insect which was
before I realized that
rusty dirty track
in cracked toilet pan
is more beautiful than
hand of madonna
torn off

Na śliskim bruku, w Londynie /On slippery pavement, in London

coraz mniej mnie jest
śpię na kawałku podłogi
wszystkie moje rzeczy
pozostawione w kącie
zmieszczą się w plecaku

coraz mniej mnie
chudszego
jadam byle co
przeterminowane
lub kradzione żarcie

doskonale obywam się
bez pieniędzy
i bez kobiet

odpadają ze mnie
kolejne zbędne
warstwy pragnień

już tylko kilka niezbędnych
spraw toczy się siłą inercji
higiena, sen, jedzenie

nie oglądam TV
i nie czytam gazet
o rewolucjach dowiaduję się

z Facebooka
gdzie wchodzę
żeby pomilczeć
z setką znajomych

im mniej jestem
tym coraz więcej śpię

może po to
żeby się w końcu
obudzić

****

there is less of me
sleeping on a piece of floor
all my stuff
left in corner
gonna fit into rucksack

I am less and less
thinner
eat anything
outdated
or stolen grub

perfectly managing
without money
and without women

falling off me
another unnecessary layers
of desires

there is few only
indispensable matters
which pending
by inertion
hygiene, sleep, food

no watching TV
and no reading papers
finding out about revolution

from Facebook
where I enter
to keeping quiet
with hundreds of friends

less I am
more and more sleep

maybe that’s way
I wake up
finally

Sometimes you turn my world upside down

Sometimes you turn my world upside down
when you bring change to the routine of life
and sometimes we do together laugh and believe
that good things jump into our way.
Sometimes you do smile and I do wonder
where you get such happiness
and sometimes I am blinded
when I find signs of love in your eyes.
Sometimes I want to hide you in my arms
when on your birthday ill-mannered people make you cry
and like a scared child
you long for better, more beautiful and wonderful days.

Every spring (Persian / Rubiyat quatrain)

Every spring after the rain
new life comes again
when seeds are sprouting
and even the smallest petals of grain.

WALT WHITMAN

Sage of words, to read.
Counting every heart beat.
One that looked upon life.
Tears hidden from strife.
Wanting all to read.
His words like flowering seeds.
His anchor was mankind.
The war he knew, unkind.
When one hears WHITMAN name.
A POET OF KINGLY FAME

REMINDER

Sitting on the heap of mortals,
an angel failed. The world
was not going to change. The kill
had inspired only a naked aggression.

Not blindfolded he took the bullet
in heart to become a holy martyr.
The pretention caused no ripples.
River flowed without blood.

A rotten tooth rolls out.
Another smile spreads. Many headed
cobra strikes again. The ooze tosses out
from the broken skin. I pray for the death.

The veil lifts. The bone of ruined
Conscience juts out. A terrible reminder of crusade seeps in.
What do we want from the gods of masses,
while the time does not want to look back?

Accountability And Judgment

Many people intelligent and bright, have been seduced into the night,
Led away by Satan’s spiritual spoof, they do not believe God’s Truth,
By many today, His Truth is denied, for they’re filled with sinful pride,
The same pride behind Lucifer’s fall, trips many today, big and small.

Some do not want any accountability, to The Creator over all eternity,
We’re all accountable to The Lord, a fact that’s chosen to be ignored,
But, it is The Lord over all creation, Who, determines your destination,
Every person’s destination eternally, this my friend, everyone will see.

God’s Judgment all shall face, at the end of life or this Age of Grace,
It’s appointed for all once to die, then receive judgment from on high,
Judgment, by The Lord for all; the rich and poor, the great and small,
Many have fallen for Satan’s ruse, but, all shall stand without excuse!

Both death and life is facing us all, as we all come out of Adam’s fall,
From which, creation is under curse, and judgment will be only worse,
If the Creator did not intervene, bringing His Salvation onto the scene,
His Salvation offered to every soul, everyone cursed, through the fall.

The Savior came not to condemn, but, to be the salvation for all men,
But, the individual must believe, before His salvation they can receive,
Salvation that grants men eternal life, through the Savior, Jesus Christ,
So believe before your last breath, and you’ll see life instead of death.

Trust In God

God in His Word is so clear; so why do will fill our hearts with fear?
Moving our thoughts into tomorrow; what may bring pain or sorrow,
While thinking about what may be, focusing on what we cannot see;
God is clear, we must understand, and live this present day at hand.

So much time in worry we spend, about what you can’t know friend,
Instead, to God’s Word we must go, to lean on Truths that we know,
To visit promises from The Lord, promises that at times go ignored,
God’s Promises that will uphold us, when in God, we place our trust.

For today can be a struggle in itself, so we rely on Scriptural Wealth,
A wealth of promises, to all of us, those who belong to Christ Jesus,
Who’s surely a promise keeping God, this I say with an assuring nod,
All the promises that He must keep, are promises, which we can reap.

Through God’s Word, we can learn, God takes care of every concern,
And The Lord is faithful to uphold, the many promises that we’re told,
Providing strength, so we can face, all of the trials, all along our race,
In the present race that we call life, strengthened through Jesus Christ.

The Lord promises us His Peace, which from Christ, shall never cease,
With God’s peace and God’s care, just why would we fall into despair?
This is caused through worry in part, as our thoughts from God depart,
So why not depart from anxiety, to simply trust in The God of Eternity.

He Is Risen

The Savior who died in our stead, now has risen from the dead,
The Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, from that grave to New Life,
Those who saw Him could rejoice, praising God with one voice,
In light that He now has risen, Eternal Life to us, God has given.

Christ, who died for all man’s sin, now in power can reign within,
In every Believer, in their heart, once residing, He will not depart,
New Life, He gives to you and me, life that extends into Eternity
Since He rose we’re not the same; readying us to eternally reign,

When on earth, believers died, they were given bodies Glorified,
Through the power of His Name, each body by God is changed,
That change assured to you and I, by Christ, who reigns on high,
Change gained, from only One, Jesus Christ, God’s Eternal Son.

All Authority was given to Jesus, to change the heart of all of us,
Leading us when we follow Christ, to point all others to New Life,
Pointing men to who we’ve adored, Jesus Christ, our Risen Lord,
The Only One, with power to give, to all believers, new life to live.

The Spotless Lamb, claimed victory, for sinners like you and me,
Victory over both sin and death, providing for His, eternal breath,
When we depart from this earth, then Glorified through New Birth,
To reign with Christ forevermore, upon reaching the eternal shore.
