TIGER WOODS

Tiger, Tiger, Golfing Knight,
Is your back still not all right?
Get a long rest from the Sport,
Ease in dreams and warm comfort,
Romp thru that familiar course
With telekinetic force!
Order in your mind your ball,
Order it to gently roll
Deftly, surely to its hole...
Still you're Nike's Best Of All!

(Get well soon!)

METAMORPHOSIS

My view from where I sit inside my car is unobstructed;
Embedded seemingly at the horizon's edge is the sky...
The truth, as our eyes see it, must truly be deconstructed.
An image from retina to the cortex is a lie..?
My eyes see both an airplane and a bird flying side by side.
Of course, I know right off that vision is a mere illusion...
Religion deals with truths which supposedly can't be denied.
Perhaps, that caused existentialists to grow in profusion;
Here on Planet Earth, we poor earthlings are often deluded.
Our inability to measure the intangible has caused much confusion,
Since conflict among several religious faiths occluded
Inspired glimpses of the Divine Realm--of God's Reality...
Start driving up on your soul's own road to Spirituality!

NAMBY PAMBY

Name calling is never a gentleman's technique;
A logical and unbiased critique
Must always be the sole weapon in a debate.
By all means, be eloquent, not irate;
You should at all times demonstrate gentility,
Prudence and rock-solid integrity...
A nation's leader should not be namby pamby,
Must never a prevaricator be.
By all means, show that you are not a tenderfoot;
You should not let Putin step on your foot!

DELUSIONS

Dark Matter and Dark Energy confound today's scientists;
External phenomena are studied by cosmologists...
Large radio telescopes carefully observe, measure, and film
Unusual happenings but strictly in the physical realm.
So many theoretical physicists have tried in vain,
Including Nobel Prize Winner Albert Einstein, to explain
Our cosmos' wondrous, mysterious, and opposing forces...
Now my theory is simply that God has Divine Resources,
So He Creates with His Two Unseen Hands His Multiverses.

MISINFORMED

Must searchers keep guessing on Triple Seven's fate?
I have some theories too, so let me speculate:-
Someday perhaps this mystery will be unveiled;
It seems for now a public placebo prevailed,
No need indeed to cause a global hysteria.
Forgot vanished Atlantis, forgot Sumeria,
Or more recent craft disappearances at sea?
Remember, there are cosmic forces we can't see!
Maybe, the airplane was swallowed by a black hole;
Entirely plausible and it's no folderol...
Do not discount a USO grabbing them all!

IMPERISHABLE

Information cannot be extinguished;
My thought energy cannot be vanquished.
Protons and electrons, although matter,
Enter God's realm carrying our clutter.
Rest assured all our deeds are on record,
Including wicked thoughts that we have stored.
So we are sinners, but probably you
Have decided to follow Christ anew..?
Act now for our time on Earth is fleeting;
Be not distracted by Lilith's tempting.
Love your neighbor, have compassion for all;
Ease your own world-weary, bedraggled soul.

TOLERANCE

Treat God's creatures kindly,
Oppress no one cruelly;
Let bygones be all gone.
Effrontery be done,
Respect your opponent;
A clear, calm argument
Needs no 'ad hominem/s'.
Condemn no 'faith' emblems;
Eschew the M&Ms.*

*(the Misinformed & Misinterpreters)

ONE WORLD

One race united as one nation...
No wars, no greed, no ostentation;
Every human being determined
With firm purpose to be illumined
On matters more than material,
Refocused on the realm spiritual...
Lord, lead your people to the New Age;
Deign to show them their/Your True Image.

ONE (lost) GOD

Our world is in turmoil, in paroxysm,
New harbingers of global cataclysm:-
East versus West, Russia seizes Crimea;
Lost suddenly but we have no idea--
One Triple Seven's whereabouts--still unknown...
So where has world peace and security flown?
Tomorrow will Earth become barren like Mars?
Go back to God, puny human; End all wars!
Our species can survive, progress, and evolve;
Don't lose God; With Him, there's nothing we can't solve!

POETRY

Poetry is a volcano in eruption,
Outpouring lava-verses filled with emotion.
Every poetic outburst comes deep from the soul...
Try to empathize, for poems are for us all.
Reader, share the poet's passion, his earnest view,
You with love, joy, and anguish are a poet too!

OSMOSIS

Our hungry credulous minds, like leaves, have osmotic powers.
Similarities among men's faiths exist, one discovers;
Many Biblical stories parallel Zoroastrian myths.
Obsolescence seeped into the religious continuum...
So many sacred texts, holy temples, churches, monoliths.
In spite of differing rites, there is only One Dominum.
Some brainwashed humans sadly see their god thru a dark spectrum.

CHILDHOOD

Carefree childhood days, myself I remember well;
Howling, shrieking, laughing, weeping, while teachers yell...
Infancy thru college, then it was time to work;
Life as family man with tasks I could not shirk.
Dreams of Camelot and castles have flown, all gone...
Here in bed immobilized by gout, am I done?
'Oh, No! You have not reached the end of your sojourn.
'Octogenarians like you have much more to learn;
'Do learn anew, dear child, at My Ethereal Bourne.'

APOLOGIA (Re the Benghazi brouhaha)

A glimmer of truth, I believe, could be in sight.
Perhaps, while he's in slumber in the dark of night,
Our leader dreamt rescue attempts he must abate
Lest more lives the Grim Reaper will confiscate.
Obama chose to forgive those who did not know...
Give him a break; Didn't Jesus Christ also did so?
Indeed, resort to Lex Talionis won't succeed.
A cruel act will just compound an evil deed.

OSSIFIED

Our faith in God need not be diminished even if it seems Science has prevailed.
Some scientists may think Traditional Religion has already been derailed,
Since many Biblical stories about heroes' deeds strain rational men's belief.
I wish the Vatican would publish an updated version to provide relief.
For instance, that tall tale about a mere human making the mighty sun stand still
Insults the intelligence of even the youngest primary grade school pupil.
Enlightened President Thomas Jefferson wrote an uncirculated version...
Do we have to wait another eon ere we can read a revised edition?

TRANSFIGURE

That 'solid' body that encases your real you
Reveals itself to present-day scientific view
As mostly empty space. This explains why Jesus Christ
Not only could freely pass thru walls, but also surprised
Some frightened followers cowed by His Crucifixion...
Few humans, I suspect, believe in resurrection.
In fact, our soul energy is beyond destruction;
God gave Man a Soul to do a spiritual function...
Unless I'm mistaken:- To reach transfiguration!
Recall to mind His empow'ring words, what did He say?
Emulate Christ Jesus, for He has shown us The Way.

AWESOME

A huge star eight thousand light years away
Will burst into supernova someday.
Earth creatures, if struck by its gamma rays,
Sicken and may vanish without a trace!
Our sole consolation:- We become souls...
May that star lead us to God's hallowed halls.
Exult when Star WR104 finally calls!

OBITER DICTUM

Opinions expressed by obiter are not engraved in stone.
Believe me, however, if you could; I'm sure I'm not alone...
I've no power to force you; It is your right to disbelieve;
Traditional egregious practices nonetheless deceive.
Example:-The belief that self-flagellation sanctifies,
Regardless of the fact it's your corpus your soul occupies.
Disfiguring your physical body won't make you a saint.
If your lifestyle is unhealthy, you'll get sick; Learn some constraint!
Control your appetites, obsessions; Go for moderation!
Take time to raise your thoughts to God whatever the occasion.
Use the many blessings our Lord has given to serve Mankind...
(May my lines above help enlighten those who are weak and blind.)



TROJAN

Troy fell on account of the Trojan Horse.
Reminder:- Force will flow thru the same course.
Our insight says Putin may feel remorse
Jeopardizing diplomatic recourse...
A Tatar horde within the Russian fold
Negates people's dream for Peace to unfold.
