Starward commented on: Titanic by jenfool 2 years 4 weeks* ago* This is a most respectful: This is a most respectful treatment of that terrible tragedy. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: thicker than blood by arqios 2 years 4 weeks* ago* Sometimes that slow simmer is: Sometimes that slow simmer is absolutely required. I just posted a poem that started in 1974 . . . only 48 years late. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: thicker than blood by arqios 2 years 4 weeks* ago* Thanks Starward. This was one: Thanks Starward. This was one of those slow cooking poems that boiled and simmered over several decades, more for the emotion transferring into articulability rather than a lack of words. [ go to comment ]
Starward commented on: Poem to end all poems by Unseen.warfare 2 years 4 weeks* ago* The porblem with so much of: The porblem with so much of Christendom today, especially in America, is that we want to preach judgement rather than present salvation. And judgement is the sole privilege of Christ, not of His servants. Matthew 7:1 specifically forbids judgement---and yet that is what your words seem to be doing. We who believe are called to proclaim the Gospel---the Gospel of Salvation, not of condemnation. The condemnation will be administered by an Authority far more competent, and far more fair, than either you or I could ever be. [ go to comment ]
eyeball.kicks commented on: Poem to end all poems by Unseen.warfare 2 years 4 weeks* ago* I realize you aren't: I realize you aren't disrespecting the Savior by calling him a "know it all". But, I can tell you this. The world will bow at his feet. Judgement day is coming. I know it. I'm terrified. he's opened my eyes to it all. America is Sodom. We were founded by occultists. Pornography is nothing major. Drugs and death and murder. Corruption in the highest and lowest levels of society. Nobody picks up their Cross and dies to this world of sin. “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.† “ [ go to comment ]
eyeball.kicks commented on: Poem to end all poems by Unseen.warfare 2 years 4 weeks* ago* Here in the west we don't: Here in the west we don't know what it means to die to the world. “The world” is the general name for all the passions. When we wish to call the passions by a common name, we call them the world. But when we wish to distinguish them by their special names, we call them passions. The passions are the following: love of riches, desire for possessions, bodily pleasure from which comes sexual passion, love of honor which gives rise to envy, lust for power, arrogance and pride of position, the craving to adorn oneself with luxurious clothes and vain ornaments, the itch for human glory which is a source of rancor and resentment, and physical fear. Where these passions cease to be active, there the world is dead…. Someone has said of the Saints that while alive they were dead; for though living in the flesh, they did not live for the flesh. See for which of these passions you are alive. Then you will know how far you are alive to the world, and how far you are dead to it.” +St Isaac the Syrian (7th Century) [ go to comment ]
eyeball.kicks commented on: Poem to end all poems by Unseen.warfare 2 years 4 weeks* ago* If you think you can pin down: If you think you can pin down God with a pea brain you are deadly mistaken. Sounds like you are having some theological issues. "Moses this is sacred ground take off your shoes" this is how we should approach God. When he lights us up we don't burn we illuminate. The Bush was on fire but it wasn't burnt. The enemy has a spirit as well it's Antichrist. .1 Corinthians 1:21 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.

crypticbard commented on: would be people's queen by arqios 2 years 4 weeks* ago* On the outside it is but: On the outside it is but deeper and in the underlayers it is also for leadership, the monarchy and faith in humanity and the inverse of that. [ go to comment ]
crypticbard commented on: MY SON by arussell1965 2 years 4 weeks* ago* That is both sad and: That is both sad and beautiful all in the same breathe, with pristine expression and articulation. Plus, I lost my father to multiple strokes early this year, so it resonates quite clearly with me in the reading. Thanks for sharing. [ go to comment ]

lyrycsyntyme commented on: Poem to end all poems by Unseen.warfare 2 years 4 weeks* ago* Jesus was a know-it-all who protested war: Just a side note. Mainly, I want to say that when you find good medicine in life, keep taking it. It sounds like you have found your good medicine, your well-lit passage through the woods, half way through a feverish, winding search over unforgiving terrain. [ go to comment ]
patriciajj commented on: Men by rachel 2 years 4 weeks* ago* Superb and enlightened: Superb and enlightened commentary on the harmful social conditioning men experience from birth. I was particularly charmed by your humanitarian candor, eloquence and insight in these words: "Oh I wish I could give all those young boys flower crowns Oh that I could teach them to be sweet to each other And that tears aren't just for girls" A crucial message, skillfully penned. Kudos! [ go to comment ]
