The Illusionist.... the origin of narcissism
THE ILLUSIONIST
Deception flows through you like blood
Like cells and sinews stretching here and there
Endlessly growing and searching for a place to fit
And find their purpose
And so your lies find their believing lovers
Gentle, trusting innocents like me
Lost in deceptive eyes dazzling with promise,
Twinkles of star shine and lips whispering of love
I fell into your abyss
Prophesying glory, I listened to your magic
I harkened to your gifting and swore allegiance
To your cause
Only to see hope vanish in your hands
The hands of the illusionist, tricks perfected
Through millenniums of practice and hearts shredded
In the gristmill of your seducing smile
You revel in it: Your heartlessness
You stare at your own reflection, enamored
By the beauty you see there in the glass
Unmatched by mortal loveliness and grace
The mirror there that only God can break
I pity you as you destroy me and my pity drives you mad
And as I fall broken in the place of dying dreams,
It occurs to me.........
You, you Prince of Darkness
And Magician Extraordinaire:
You have never loved another, will never love another
And never be loved for who you truly are
There is no place in your heart except for you.

Dedicated to the Prince of Darkness himself
and all of his many twisted and delusional offspring
otherwise known as Narcissists who, finding no love in their own
empty souls, seek to drain others of their love and destroy them
when they are unmasked and seen for who they really are: Shells with nothing inside but lies they have told themselves. People that can only be healed by God, not by draining victim after victim of all their joy and humanity.
In my life there have been several of these people and they all seem to follow the same manual and rulebook. They all share the exact same characteristics and personality traits, mannerisms, vocal expressions, and red flags.
When you first meet them, they are sweet and charming and make you feel
like you have met your dream come true.
Then when they have gained your love and trust, the dream becomes a nightmare as they begin to systematically destroy everything about you because that is what they feed off of to make themselves feel good and better than you because they know inside that they will never be as good as you or as real as you, as gifted as you or know true love like you do. Because there is nothing real about them. They will never share their true selves with you, answer the simplest questions or give you a compliment that doesn't hide a barb or insult. They are full of jealousies, bitterness, pride, scorn, disdain for everyone and everything but primarily with rage and anger and fear of being judged. Not that you are judging them, but they perceive EVERYTHING as judgement, not realizing that they are really judging themselves.
They are sad, lonely empty people and you feel pity for them until you get so sick of their anger and mind games that you just don't care anymore. They hate that. The only thing you can do at this point is just RUN!!! Your love cannot fix them and you have to learn that the hard way. All of the narcissists I have known have alienated everyone in their lives eventually and died all alone feeling sorry for themselves. It is a sad sad thing. But that is the life and world that they have created for themselves and there is nothing you can do about it.
May God heal and deliver them and you, if you find you have these people in your lives. I know from experience that it is like living in hell and will make you question your own sanity. But it's not your fault. Believe that. I do not know what causes them to be like this, I will never understand it. I only know that the world is full of them and that they bring the Prince of Darkness much joy if indeed he can feel joy because they are so much, whether willingly or unwillingly, like him. Miserable. And conduits of that misery to everyone that lets them into their lives on an intimate basis. Outsiders and strangers who do not really know them will always think they are sweet and charming and wonderful (which they can be and you'll love them for that!) but being consummate actors playing roles...it is NOT REAL. That fairytale will soon turn into the ultimate horror movie. And you will be afraid to love or trust any one else for a long time. Learn the red flags now and learn to recognize them in the future. They are like clones. They are all alike (with exceptions) and once you are educated on this subject, you will save yourself much grief and pain. But you will always think about them and all the potential you saw in them that will probably never be. And you will cry for what might have been. But know in your heart that it was not your fault. They were broken before you met them. Now fix all the damage they did to you and move on. Sigh.

Let Me Lie
Let Me Lie
Though I die of love and it's wanting
Let me lie in it's embrace
Until I perish
For there is no softer, no grander gesture
Than to die in love's arms
Even though the many die underneath it's feet.
Still the few, like me and you
Voluntarily give ourselves to the burning of the light
Knowing we shall be together forever in eternity.
It is an easy choice and the only choice
Hearts like ours may make
For we have died a thousand times, what is one more?
With the rising of the golden dawn
We raise our faces again to the silver sky
There on the other side of forever.
And entwining lips and arms and souls
We find ourselves and who we are
There in the empty spaces that God has made
And we are home. Again.

REMEMBERING TOMORROW
Remembering Tomorrow
Remembering tomorrow
And the things not yet to be
Things unspoken, dreams undreamed
The story of you and me.
Forgetting yesterday
And the way the two of us
Fell in the love that fell away
As our hearts forgot to trust.
Thinking of you in my arms
And the light shining from our eyes
In the game of love, declared the winners
With one another's hearts as our prize.
All we could see was tomorrow
Yesterday was just fairytale lore
A dream come to pass with a promise to last
Needs fulfilled but always needing more.
What happened to us, tell me, love
All the joy has drowned in sorrow
Tell me how to let go of yesterday
When I'm still remembering tomorrow.

Ode To Women
esday, November 20, 2019
ODE TO WOMEN
ENTWINED AROUND AN APPLE TREE
SATAN SAID TO EVE:
"WOULDST THOU LIKE AN APPLE
FROM MY GOLDEN APPLE TREE?"
AND EVER SINCE THE APPLE
WOMANKIND HAS BEEN
BLAMED FOR ALL CALAMITIES
AND EVERY KIND OF SIN.
WHENEVER WE MAKE SMALL MISTAKES
IT'S TAKEN AS AN OMEN
MEN ALL SHAKE THEIR HEADS AND SAY
"NOW, THAT'S JUST LIKE A WOMAN."
AND MEN BELIEVE THAT WE CONCEIVE
CHILDREN JUST BY WISHING
'CAUSE THEY ALL SAY THAT MEN HAD RATHER
BE OFF SOMEWHERE FISHING.
HURRICANES AND SHIPS AND STORMS
ARE CALLED BY FEMALE NAMES
BECAUSE WE ARE SO WILD, THEY SAY
AND DIFFICULT TO TAME.
EVERY TIME YOU STUMBLE ON
A DRUNKARD BY THE WAY
HE'LL TELL YOU 'TWAS A WOMAN
THAT TURNED HIM OUT THAT WAY.
WOMEN MAKE MEN DRINK, THEY SAY
AND GAMBLE, STEAL AND DIE
WOMEN BREAK THEIR HEARTS OF GOLD
AND NEVER EVEN SIGH.
WHEN A BAD BOY GOES TO PRISON
WITH ALL HIS CRIMINAL BROTHERS
HE'S SURE TO SAY WHEN ASKED IN PITY
"IT STARTED WITH MY MOTHER."
POOR WOMANKIND HAS BEEN THROUGH MUCH
SINCE EVE PUT US IN PRISON
BUT AT LEAST SHE HAD THE GUMPTION
TO MAKE THE FIRST DECISION.
THE FEMALE IS THE STRONGER SEX
AND I PROVE MY STATEMENT'S WORTH:
IF MEN WERE MEANT TO BEAR THE CHILDREN
THERE'D BE NO LIFE ON EARTH!
WHAT WOULD MEN DO WITHOUT WOMEN
THOUGH THEY DISDAIN US WITH SCORN
DO NOT THEY REALIZE WE ARE ROSES
AND THEY ARE ONLY THORNS?
OF COURSE, WE NEED OUR COUNTERPARTS
DON'T MISUNDERSTAND THIS SONG
AND WE'LL COMFORT, LOVE AND KEEP THEM
(TILL SOMETHING BETTER COMES ALONG.)

The Light That is Merely Visual Darkness. a powerful video and word to be heeded
So tired of the deception spreading across the world like a thick blanket.
So tired of satanic songs and demonic shows.
So tired of seeing the Adversary of all mankind receive the worship
that belongs to God Almighty. So tired of the old "new" age rising
that was birthed by fallen angels who pretended they were gods. So tired
of Wiccans pretending to follow Christ. So tired of atheists pretending
that this life is all there is. So tired of witches, devils and those that call
evil good and good evil.
So tired of watching all of those that are blind to truth
marching proudly toward that forever darkness where your
masters will soon join you. Those masters you will curse
eternally when you realize how they have deceived you and
used you like a soul-less puppet. Every song you now sing
to bless the enemy of your soul, every poem you write drenched
in witch language, every movie you make to give glory to satan
and terror, every filthy word, every blasphemy and sneer you
aim toward your Creator...
These are the very things you will be tortured with forever
and ever. Begging for forgiveness like those who now reside in
chains in the Abyss but no forgiveness will be given. It will be
too late. Too late.
But if you are reading this and watching this video, it is not too
late for you. God in His mercy is giving you yet another chance to
walk out of the darkness voluntarily and into the True Light and not
continue in this counterfeit light in which you now walk and espouse
with your New Age "blessings" of 'Light and Love'. No one loves
you in that realm you walk in. It is fake and counterfeit and full of lies.
Look into the mirror and see how empty your eyes are, your soul is.
You have swallowed the poison, received the deception, believed the
greatest of all lies. The Darkness is Visual now. It can hide no more.
No mask can hide it. It is there for all with eyes to see and ears to hear.
There, in front of you, smiling at you with it's sickening grin and
you don't even know how much it hates you and wants to destroy
you along with everything that God made beautiful and for His glory.
No man can serve TWO Masters. He will love the one and hate the
Other. Ask yourself: Who am I serving? Who's words
pour forth from your mouth? The voice of Darkness or the voice
of Light? You cannot use witchcraft and receive a blessing from Heaven.
There is no witchcraft there. It was kicked out centuries ago with the
Father of Lies who invented it. And now it has become the religion of
the masses who had rather perform rituals than dwell in God's presence,
receive His blessings as grateful children and walk in the light of
holiness. For without Holiness, no man will see God.
But see only the golden glow of His city and His throne from a distance.
And as we who love Truth dance in joy and unending Love, you will
beg for mercy and weep in the Darkness that you love now.
Please! I beg you.....come out of it while you still can. Renounce Evil!
I love you. God loves you. He waits with open arms......for you.
WAKE UP!!!!!
WHAT SURVIVES OF US IS LOVE
What Survives Of Us Is Love
When all is said and done
And all is done and dead
It’s not the declarations shouted
Or hard thoughts in the head
It’s not the way we walked
And not the turn we took
It’s not how much we spent on shoes
Or how fashionable we looked
It’s not how long we waited
How strong the stance we stood
How many days we held the fort
Wondering if we could
It’s not the might or money
Our fall or rise above
But when we’re gone, one thing lives on
What survives of us is love.

I AM THE CROW
I AM THE 
I am the crow that scarecrows flee from
Falling over their feet of straw
Losing handfuls of their dusty brains
Out among the ruins of cornfields dead and dying
But still inhabited by ghosts.
I am the crow that junkyard dogs howl at
As they run away in terror from the paleness
Of my face
For they know the truth: I am no ordinary crow.
I am the crow that love glances at
In midnight pools of moonlight
Screaming it's horror into my eyes
And crushing my still beating raven black heart.
For love alone knows above all things
That flee from me: This crow is not of this world
Does not belong, is not wanted here
And never shall be.

Beware The Kitten's Claws....(The Enigma of Love)
Beware The Kitten's Claws
(The Enigma of Love)
Love she is, a red red rose 🌹
With thorns within her leaves
Perfumed coverlets on graves of the dead
Left there by the left one that grieves.
Love she is, a sparkling wine
Waking feelings that sleep and wait to be woke
Inhibitions set free by her intoxications
Birthing passions and poetries that wait to be wrote.
Love she is, the sweetest thing
And the saddest thing of all
The cold of Winter, the heat of Summer
Spring's bloom and the decay of Fall.
Love she is, the tiger's wildness
The soft and playful paws
The kittenish purr wrapped up in fur
But beware the kitten's claws.
For love she is, a two sided thing
She gives and takes away
With such tools employ, she'll bring you joy
And then leave you where you lay.
How do I know this tale of woe?
This mystery I speak of?
This gift of Heaven oft tinged by Hell
My friend, my name is Love. 💓
And Love I am and Love I'll be
Until the end of days
An enigma even unto myself
And no man can learn my ways.
A rose with thorns, a life filled with death
A wine that reveals the deepest, dark flaws
A tiger, exciting and a kitten, enticing
Who will love you and sleep with your heart in her claws.
