A New York times best seller

I woke up Splattered all over the front page 

of the Washington post today 

The paparazzi posting pictures

Of the shoes I wore the night before 

 I woke up the story had changed 

The front page is the last page 

The headlines are blank 

The date is right 

But the comics are no joke 

My blood is dripping 

From the crease in the page 

Splattered all over your ankles 

I washed out between the pages 

Of somebody's post today 

Bob Jenkens 

To dissect a poet is to open his pages and read 

Look at his vital organs How did life make him bleed........Autopsy of a poet

what if Putin's telling the truth "2016"

What if Putin's telling the truth? 

fake news real news? is Jesus new?

what would Jesus do

if he were sitting next to you

watching the news

32 channels reading 

the same three stories

catered

like we can't handle the truth

The Anti Christ is in North Korea

The Iranians seek nuclear devastation

on Israel

or the Russians have converted to Catholicism

and started speaking in tongue

with their baptismal ordinance

Put on your poker face Putin

and tell Jesus why you do

what the news guys say you do

Or what if Jesus made the news

turning tainted water into wine

and with Kim Jung un accepting communion

Jesus News

The Ayatillah goes solar

and Putin to call all in

to Peace and Christianity 

(up next on reality t.v)

believe you me, Humanity

Quite simply put, people need to believe 

whatever they need to be at peace with themselves 

to save this planet from our own selfish greed. 

No hate and believing peace could be 

believing in you.  

And believing in me.

Calvary

What's right, What's wrong 

What's changed or not the same 

Why do I feel 

I need to kill 

Hang myself on a cross at the capitol 

The beginning of the end For me But then you'll see 

What's right, what's wrong 

What's changed or not the same

is Ukraine the new Middle East?

Is The Ukraine the new Middle East?

My insight on the war in Ukraine

during my walk today, I wondered.

If a bear shits in the woods and  

No one is around to hear 

does it make a sound?

What kind of question is that?

Is The Ukraine the new Middle East? 

What's the difference if there's nobody listening?

Where is Humanity?

There is a crisis happening Innocent people are in the middle of it 

       "if it bleeds it leads"

Is The Ukraine the new Middle East?

 Two year's ago today debriefed at the pearly gates I took the puppies for a walk in the woods.

Russia was bombarding Ukraine with air strikes commencing with no particular targets, right on the news. I commend the citizens of Ukraine and their military on the resistance and fight against the invasion and attack on the democracy of their country.

I asked myself why Isn't the whole world condemning Russia's aggregation? Do we have to wait until a ethnicity is robbed, brutalized and murdered? I'm watching it in plain view on the news and tv crews what is the truth?

I'm just a dumb roofer but I'm sure there's some roofers in The Ukraine whose lives' have been shattered and they don't know why any more than I do.  where is the rest of Humanity?  what do I know I'm just a dumb roofer that writes stupid poems.

will write for food

will write for food work video My face isn't carved in a mountain I've never been struck by lightning I've never saved a crying baby from a burning house fire nor have I overcome my misfortunes in life to acquire a name for myself. 

I consider myself a writer although all that I've written is broken pieces of torn limbs of my distraught existence.

two faces

Two faces inside of my eyes 

One who fights and one that cries 

I that fights tries to be strong, 

Telling my tears it won't be long 

I that cries is hidden inside shivering cold 

and wanting to die

I've hidden in shadows and counted my tears 

Looking through windows that are more like mirrors

it puzzles me

So look at that 10 thousand pieces 

It's a puzzle, all in pieces 

I can't tell you what it is 

Please read me to the end

Every poem is my life 

It's a puzzle kinda like short hand

It puzzles me where I fit in 

Help me with this puzzle please 

Start at the end or take the outside edge 

Please help me before I'm the last missing piece 

Peace be with you

what kind of alarm

I tried to get mad today 

Idk, all I can do is laugh shrug my shoulders 

and say "oh well " 

It's alarming to me 

Have I given up and don't care anymore?

Maybe tomorrow I'll hear a bell  the under dog

Catch my second wind for the third time 

Go all in,  A gladiator fightdon't stay down

A rational civil dispute 

We don't have to have a physical altercation 

I'm write and your wrong 

Face the facts don't be mad

Let me spell it out for you 

"Truth and Justice"

I request a judicial review Jesus would be rolling in his grave

when I lay awake

I listen to classical music on WKAT

It's empowering in relinquishing misfit energy 

When in my head the mechanics tools are used fine tuning,  calibrating 

Screwdrivers, Phillips and standard are an F sharp

While a hammer is a g string

A sharp woman in a g string 

That will help me sleep..... or not

I calibrated.... now I'm asleep 

           Or not

"God" I have seen this coming!

God is about to do something in hour's 

He has been preparing us for this time 

GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS 

In Jesus name Happy New year!

Amen 

My quietness is uncertainty 

Unsure if I should even speak 

Am I wrong to believe there's hope for me 

Lately I've reserved the right to believe 

It's to late for me 

Uncertain of any resolution I hope 

God hears me 

      "PRAY"

what's the purpose?

I don't know what my purpose involves. 

God's purpose for me is enevitablll 

A painted canvas of Irony 

Don't look too me for answers 

Glory is the kingdom of God 

In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. 

Merry Christmas
