Hundredth Lambs ARCHANGEL OF THE MOST REVILED
Perhaps it was first said
by kind Dr Haynes
that Emma will give you
blood out of her veins
When others say 'no
room in the inn'
Emma's sure to say
'why do come in'
When others say
'impossible'
Emma always says
'I can'
She forgives the most
angry roars
because she sees
the painful scars
Her geiger counter finds
hearts cut in twain by pain.
She the first to say
'they know not what they do'
Everytime she gave
away
her kind heart it grew.
She knows that broken
souls derailed from the tracks
warm with the fire coming
through their big heart cracks.
Befriender of the 13th fairy
not invited to the ball
Loves the leper, the pariah
.. the ostracized.. the blackballed
Treats the suffering
as her own child
She's the archangel
of
the most reviled
COCKROACH BLESSINGS
Oh a cockroach
is better luck
than a cricket
upon the hearth
for he magnetizes
to your home
those
who love every heart.
FLOCK FLOTILLA
A floating flotilla
of baby clouds
.. to earth they fell
and became a flock of
sheep..
but new sheep
who no longer go
whichever way
the wind blows
who refuse to
submit
to the shears
or the branding
in the ears
SPILLED SEEDS
The spilled seeds
swept out the door
became corn on the cob
from corn on the curb.
