PILATE'S DREAM
PILATE'S DREAM



One dream haunted Pilate now´


through gates of rusted steel he was led,
shackled in fetters of rotted human flesh,
two dark robed sentries on either side
escorted him into a wasteland of death´

human skulls dotted the grizzly landscape,
vacant holes where living eyes once dwelt
staring at him as he walked toward a hill
where a legion of demonic centurions waited´

stripped of his royal garments, standing naked
in the midst of a thousand lost souls of perdition,
cheering him, praising him, bowing to him
as he stooMore »

COMMON FACTOR: GOD
~COMMON FACTOR: GOD~



Religion is supposed to
uplift the spirit and take
human beings at a higher
level of morality and help
us live together in harmony.

Over thousands of years
so many religions are born
in various parts of this planet.
They all proclaimed to be the
only true religion on this planet.

War in the name of religion
is not a new thing on Earth.
There has been many wars
just because they differ in
their belief and their faith.

We need to unite as humans
and stop the war of faith.

Mother of Sorrows / Saturday


"And a sword shall pierce your heart"

Mother, how shall this wound be healed?
In your arms he rests, broken and cold,
sweet heart of your heart and blessed

In this, the hour of darkness and sorrow,
you remember only the ancient words,

"He was despised and rejected by men,
a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief...
and he was bruised for our iniquities."

How could it have come to this? And yet,
dear Mother of sorrows, More »

A Memory of Mother

Though it is a month away for Mother´s Day, I am still thinking of my dear mother and the love she freely gave.
Mother was no one´s fool and you couldn´t snow her anytime you wanted.
Mother always had the upper hand in a matter without the use of chicanery.
There were no tricks ever played for they were unwarranted.
I remember so well the times we had together as Mother and son.
It was a special time for me; in that Mother knew there was something wrong and wanted to know what it was.
There was no snowing Mother as we have said.
From the heart Mother know the way thingMore »
