“We live between
the beasts and the Angels”
On this topic
Augustine was right
Our intellects bear
what our impulses share
Separating the wrong
from the right
We live between
the Lord and the devil
Each claiming a stake
in our souls
As primates absolved
into humans evolved
Two halves
—of a now different whole
(St Davids Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
Its Unrest
Can you ever prove a negative,
have you ever really tried
To show that God does not exist,
or love not verified
‘To Be Or Not To Be’
is then a half-truth at the best
Belief a claim you can’t defame
—with logic its unrest
(St. Davids Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
The Truth Is
God does not exist…
existence a material term
Transcending all dimension,
His presence wholly burns
Not temporal or timeless,
His light as knowledge gives
Not forgiving or forsaking
—the truth in God just is
(St. Davids Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
Lost—Unfelt
Beyond all critical thinking,
above what’s right or wrong
There’s a different understanding,
where words turn into song
With a deeper sense of freedom,
light shines upon itself
All reasoned dialectic,
left abandoned, lost—unfelt
(Rosemont Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
The Fire\'s Burn
Can you understand
without thinking
Can you know more than
your mind can learn
Can you overflow
without leaking
Can you see
—beyond the fire\'s burn

Diamond Of The Soul
May your reasons bejewel in truth
—the diamond of the soul
