Do you think Christ would say
“Send the immigrants away”
Do you think Christ would say
“Love your neighbour unless they are poor, brown, black or gay”
I don’t think Christ would preach
Hate in the streets
Arrests of the homeless
The downtrodden
The queer
Forcing them to live every day in fear
Yet here we are
Forgetting “love your neighbour”
Unless they are straight and white and able
I think Christ cries when He sees what we’ve done
When we see how we treat people’s friends, sisters, parents and sons
So I will cling to my faith
I will cling to my love
I will cling to my faith in a better heaven above
Because the Lord said love my children
And for Him I will try
To love and to care for those facing abuse
And so maybe, just maybe, my Lord won’t have to cry

Aphrodite
Is born from the sky and into the sea
And you can find her in the vivid, exquisite earth.
In the ripe, warm-coloured fruits on the tree which may remind you of the lush softness of fatty flesh or the tenderness of the heart.
There is so much love, so much beauty to be found in all that surrounds us,
And you can always find her there
In the depths and on the sun-warmed surface
Of the world and of yourself.

₊⋆·˚ a prayer to the Sacred Heart:
“O most holy heart of Jesus,
fountain of every blessing,
I adore you, I love you, and
with lively sorrow for my sins,
I offer you this poor heart of mine.
Make me humble, patient, pure
and wholly obedient to your will.
Grant, good Jesus,
that I may live in you and for you.
Protect me in the midst of danger.
Comfort me in my afflictions.
Give me health of body,
assistance in my temporal needs,
your blessing on all that I do,
and the grace of a holy death.
Amen.”

one day god will come back
and he'll see all i lack
and ill hang my head low like a dog
that got caught eating food off the table,
cuz i said heaven is just a fable
n he'll tell me im a dumb, dumb mutt
dumb mutt, down on my luck
and ill say im sorry god
youre the man, im just a dog
only doing what i thought was right
i promise i truly meant no spite
but he'll see through my lies
death stare my big wet eyes
and he'll hit me on the nose
'thats not how it goes'
he says
'these days
everyone is a nonbeliever
or devout in hate of the dreamer.
every child is full of hate,
indoctrinated in my name
such a wretched fate,
with their parents only to blame.'

Poetry Request | Pan
oh to sing a song of untamed pan
keeping the hum of natures enchantment strong
truly wild , half earth - half man ?
one side warm
one side cool
with dancing nymphs he did preform
followed the stories of a god so cruel
i sing his song in revelry
lord of shepard - and - Hungering Wild.
a story lost long to unfound devilry
by christian panic his story defiled
though hes died
his notes hav’ last
as i sing just know I Tried.
to remember the song of natures past.

Goodness and Mercy – Poetry 
Tumblr media
I feel there is something
Or someone who or that
Is always there
Watching over and protecting me
They are surely the perfect pair
They aren’t conflicting or argumentative
They are loving
And if you ask me
Much too fair
And even when I was angry
Their love was always there
It’s some Jesus stuff they sprinkle
When things are dark like night
And they will never leave or forsake me
No matter how tuff the fight
There is one thing I am sure of
Although my choices aren’t always right
Goodness and Mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life

Poetry in Prose. i.
When the clockwork ticks its last breath and the lull of the ether quiets to a murmur; only then and there in the ancient rumble can the old gods be truly found, truly felt, truly experienced—and to dig deeper into the chasm than there is a feat that molds and shapes a soul into the fabric and doctrine of the primordial womb, the sacred embers hollow of a life once lived and a soul once lost, wherein lies an iceberg that may go so far down into the shapes and forms of the nebulae that you will find nothing in your arsenal but light, pure and holy, that bathes you; moribund as you are. That is divinity, pure and wrought from the vestiges of the water that trickles from the Garden, down until it drips onto your palm the way the serpent's venom drips into the sacred bowl. Divinity as it exists in humanity. Or perhaps that is angels. I could never tell the difference.
all these excerpts are from my devotional journal. do not steal or use them for personal or commercial benefit. i do not consent to that. all of my 'poetry in prose' posts are offerings to Lord Apollon. this post is no exception.
this post is also an offering to Loki, as it references Him.
