A Clever Man

Mike Blake

A Clever Man :: 
This poem is a send up poem written about the insatiable drive that an over zealous 
optimist has of self, that possesses boundless energy, and enthusiasm for life, without 
fully realizing the implications and inherent mistakes that can come about. 
It encapsulates Youthful exuberance in spades, without the experience that sets a calculus on 
ones takeup of endeavours. This poem was written by myself sometime ago, and has only now 
had the opportunity to be spoken of. 
It incorporates a lot of the famous and the great from the past, in the speakers soliloquy he pits himself as on a par with their greatness and accomplishments.

Odyssey One Day In His Courts -...

Stephanie Dale

A collection of twenty-five poems on faith and ocd. Intrusive thoughts come up with what seems like a million flashing warning lights like those coming up all at once on a car's faulty dashboard. None of them make sense but they all feel so real, so personal, yet so alien to the person's heart, nature and beliefs. Suffering in silence, unable to talk as it feels like no one will understand, or worse, that they will judge harshly... anxiety levels soar... isolation follows, even from God, because "He knows". The thing is, He does know. Brains glitch, they can be like the car's faulty dashboard. They are not our mind, and they are not our heart. The battle is very real and the steps taken to overcome must be acknowledged, but the journey was never meant to be travelled alone. These few poems are a prayer voyage towards restored intimacy in the courts of Grace and in the safety of one's hiding place, tightly tucked against His heart, positioned for recovery.

Modern Man - Neanderthal with...

Modern Man ~ Neanderthal with Manners 
Poem about the comparison of what it is to be a Modern man today. What it may have been yesterday, and what it 
was to compare it to our relatively recent ancestors from just a hundred thousand years or so 
- The Neanderthals. 
Would they have been as cruel to their fellow beings as possibly we are today. What does it mean to be classified as 
MODERN ! A modern Human ?
