Man Of War - A Poem by Moe



"...except you...you were talkin bout the end of the world..."

oh man of war what is this fire
your belly holds inside
that sword unsheathed should fuel desire
for vexing distant hide

the moon and stars make plain the heights
that feed all wars acclaim
for conquered slain that take their flights
keep marks that scream your name

you seek out time to sheath your sword
and ease your restless heart
but times enrage the flame that's stored 
when war becomes your art

~Apollo

Remove The Veil - A Poem by Moe

"...what can I do with my obsession...for the things I cannot see..."

Lord show me sand and show me sky
declare the truth, reveal the lie
let me not fall to what's unseen
but keep my sight beyond the screen  

remove the veil to heavens verse
and clear my eyes of adam's curse
reveal to me all secrets kept
that I may know what to accept

but most of all allow my heart
to feel the love behind Your art
the passion felt from clay to breath
the I may see and love at depth

~Moses Apollo
