The 5 Senses

We are your eyes through which you choose to see.
     Nothing or something; you can believe!

We are your ears through which you choose to hear.
    Nothing or something; we'll lead you there!

I am your nose through which you choose to smell
     Nothing or something; don't move, I'll tell.

I am your tongue through which you choose to taste
     Nothing or something; I'll discern the waste. 

I am your skin through which you choose to feel.
     Nothing or something; oh you are real!

Another Comedy for the Logos

And there was my heart On that sleeve drenched in blood, Squeezed to the last drop, Trampled, and pressed in the mud. The chalice was raised; “Take drink!” They all said. Whence my tongue rejected it, They cried, “Lie, thee, with the dead!”      And you’ll paint a pretty heaven      And turn mortals into gods      While you stand and watch me burn      Amidst complacent nods.      You place filthy hands      On my emaciated back.      I’ll be what I will be      When, alas, you paint me black! And I sank into my skin As you ripped out my tongue. “It’s for your own good,” Was the song to be sung. And, oh, they stoked the fire To set the demons free; Led by the shackles Of their mental slavery.      And you’ll paint a pretty heaven      And turn mortals into gods      While you stand and watch me burn      Amids...
