a family
their sanctuary
under blankets
after thanksgiving
praying
#thecandleblinkedtwice
before dousing out
the tiny room fell dark
a harbinger
a morning star
signaling
a shift was near

weakened by bottom feeders
all I had left
was a healthy mind
whispering hold on
for judgement time

the tied-up old bag
holding all that remained
of such a good man
he watched from the heaven
had ascended last night
sent a dove to be with her
as the dust took flight

my life is bleak
and very tough
the constant chatter
rabbit hole talk
stunted a walk
towards #numinous growth
never meeting ones transcendent self

led by the voices of #ancestors
I found a teacup
with its own dainty #saucer,
wrapped in newspaper,
a headline dated 1957
announcing federal civil rights legalization
a pivotal moment in history
they want to erase
the same year as my birth

dangles on the door
protecting the faithful from the storm
a cross
pinned to a label
reminder of the power of the lord
a cross
placed on a grave
guarding the soul from the #unearthly
a cross
lives in the heart
encouraging us to still be kind

would go up skirts
he stunk
so bad
it chased the skunks
oblivious to the stench
his audience bowed
held their breath
opportunist
owned by his wealth

pull at me twice
But the third time you pulled
my #elastic has snapped
unleashing the witch laying dormant inside
hand raised
swirling my wand
now you're a toad
swimming circles in
my backyard pond

deep inside
recognized in the flow
twinning with soul of the familiar
comfort, like
an old t-shirt with worn holes
star children
coming home
whispers
we have always been #friends

to ravage souls
a battle of evil for power and control
as they kiss gold
crooked crowns
sealing their fate
temporary gains
damnation unleashed
#Untamed flames burning it
all down to the ground
to the ground
