~Gloss~

Rimbaud
was gay
Morrison a wretched drunk
Sexton suicidal

in their world
excess and reviled
from their minds
came Gloss
and Matte
delirious definitions
scewed out spewed
out the painful intricate
art the words

Memories

Memories

Written by: Mario Vitale
In columns of grain spoiled the base

Through traverse memories in equated pace
With vanquished triumph to exploit
A challenge to be free is a question in time
Every verse in the bible is an index to Jesus

Some say we our intollerant people don't like you
Yet who are they a whole pile of wood spent in trees?
Here I am Lord is it I Lord?
They have selected hearing
An indifference in the church for God hates apathy
God dislikes indifference

God dislikes indifference

Sin

Sin

Written by: Mario Vitale
Anguish taunts through a barbed wire fence with edged grasp

Actions in which human beings rebel against a holy God
Miss their purpose for their lives
Surrender to the prince of the power of the air more then God
Cause all of their deeds were evil!

Shattered
An eclipse of the sun had tainted my inner vision
Push back the pain with radiant guide
Does this notion in thought come at any big surprise?

Brown book
pages shorn
slipping free
a stream
in puddles of
reflection
Pain bending
winces like
the wink of thermo
stars
tiny dancing daggers
a breeze is getting
your chapter
twisting beneath
the dark shadows
of the rolling cars

Dog eared emotion
chapter twenty still
reeked
like cold gusts
shaking this
moved archive

Give Me Shelter From The Storm

Give Me Shelter From The Storm

Written by: Mario Vitale
With faces in the window having storms in the night

You gave me promises they gave me pain
When will we ever live to understand this game
Give me shelter from the storm within cause we may never live again
In shattered dreams brought through its timely theme

Many are still wandering alone in the darkness of night

A plate of desire poured out with a creme sauce of desolation

Pearls in Paradise

I have always love pearls
The reason is for they go with anything
You wear will look pretty good and make
Me feel good and deep inside of my heart
The heavenly love of pearls that shine bright
As I wear pearls that remind me of my loved ones
Who have passed away and how much I miss them.
Pearls are like apart of me as I have comfort to
Know they are with me in through my pearls.
A paradise city where I live in brings me hope
To overcome in my head the reality that God has given

Smiles

I have traveled the earth
for miles and miles,
and found things little worth
warm friendly smiles.

Over strange foreign lands
by great lakes and deep seas,
always are welcoming hands
with kind smiles to please.

It's the language of the universe
be you brown black or white,
and translates in rhyming verse
in bright day and dark night.

For a smile is sweetly made
of understanding so kind,
seeking congenial trade
and can be seen by the blind.

old lust did rust

lusty love
first lust
then love!

How do you say
lust is not a need
after lust only
comes
love indeed

as lovers today
are born each day,
out of wedlock
by lust as they say

when a new babe is born
on a sunny day
many wait for that day

when that lover
new one will grow
in their desired
hubbys way

later lust will be returned
in exchange of love
so love is lust
and
nothing more,
I am quite sure,
what my master
once did say

Women With Their Moods

Women With Their Moods

Just when I get into the groove,

The bell began to rang at closing time
Do you all remember when you were broke
Down to your last thin dime
Getting to the top of the ladder

There still was no where to go
What a tremendous effort and climb
The aura of the plaintiff was extremely rare
This is not another game of truth or dare
With women and their moods

Beading

I love beading my way
Through life as I can see
The work I have done.
Things have gotten so
Hectic in my attitude that
I need a passion to ease
My pain. Like mindedness is the
Anatomy of being yourself to know
You life and what you are meant to do.
Beading is my personal statement said
To my calmness, as life takes me back to
The fact I can feel through my feelings with these
Colorful sparkled looking things that I call home.
Beading to get my life back on my mind and body
