armageddon oops
July 6, 2017
What if it all explodes,
the universe inside
punches through
overwhelming
all existence
above the breach.
What if bricks fly
as leaves in a firestorm,
cellos burn like straw,
fingers napalm
lips like paper.
Will you hail the second coming?
Buddy knows first

He leaps
from the couch
and growls at the sky.
Then looks back at me
to say goodbye.
Soon come the winds
straight from hell
all we can do
is bark and yell.
The Earth is an ember
our spirits release,
another failed planet
another failed peace.
Is Your Candidate an Armageddonist?
September 27, 2008
Belief in the The Apocalypse of John posits peace as unattainable
until the second coming of Christ.
Until there is a worldwide conflagration and a Christ based theocracy –
peace is considered impossible.
How can Armageddonists conduct sane foreign policy when they believe in such inevitabilities?
Armageddon Oops

like leaves in a hurricane
cellos burn like straw
fingers like napalm
lips like tissue.
Will you hail
the second coming?
Today I Encountered the Armageddonists
September 24, 2008
In the middle of town they stood on each corner
yelling words they believed to be God’s.
Their silent wives held signs as if crosses.
The pictures of Jesus dripped Ashouran blood.
Yet another tear parade.
(We have all been wronged.)
Mohammad and Jesus in an elevator stuck.
Would they battle or avoid the others’ eye?
Embrace as a force of love?
Divide the world like bloody soul pie?
I would bet on love.
I would bet on love again.
Dying in some cesspool place
no chance to embrace YOUR divinity.
Condemned by GOD to more suffering,
I want no part of such DEITY.
colony collapse
restless legs
identity theft
tainted eggs
leaded Barbie
cancer genes
home invasion
tainted greens
diseased hearts
deadly sin
broken parts
tumbling in
tasered youth
speech bereft
monks for truth
what love is left?
popping pills
guns in school
glossy pages
skinny cool
