An Offender’s Signature vs. Modus Operandi

Sometimes there's some confusion of the difference between a criminal’s signature versus the criminal’s modus operandi when they commit a specific crime.



Are they the same?



No, they are distinctly different because one feeds on emotional needs of the criminal while the other is a procedure.



Modus operandi is the method that is used… Continue

Poem: Losing Myself

Cuddling with my beloved

under the warmth of satin sheets,

I gently sense the merging of souls

as our bodies become one flesh.

Fingertip sensations reflect the excitement

that are already stirred within my spirit.

During these sweet times of intimacy,

I'm losing myself as a fading light

in the ultimate desire of Love,

as the moments are embedded

softly into our memories.

Poem: Lot's Wife

Not wanting to be rescued

from the twin, sin cities,

she's unwillingly led away

by a man she barely loves and pities.



Unable to follow God's direction

and her husband's leadership,

she succumbs to her heart's lust

for a final look, as the horizon dips.



Governed by Jezebel's spirit,

having forgotten that Jehovah honors His Word,

she's transformed into a pillar of salt

for a life no longer preserved.



Fighting tears from… Continue

Banned Book Week

Banned Book Week

This week is Banned Book Week!

The challenges have occurred in every state and in hundreds of communities.

In support of banned book week, you might want to read my vampire novels, The Dancing Valkyrie… Continue

Poem: Chronic Indecision

Going my own selfish way,

based on the ignorance

of my false understanding,

leads directly to my downfall.



For chronic indecision

counteracts God's divine help,

as I traverse the narrow path -

Walking boldly and tall.



My Salvation is not achieved

by what I do or go through -

For I'm mindful of His Guidance

to accomplish a role that is small.



I desire to live a life of Faith

that is visible for any to see;

as… Continue

Poem: Come Forth!

In the quiet town of Bethany

lived two sisters and one brother;

they were Mary, Martha and Lazarus -

people deeply loved by Christ, as none other.



Unexpectedly, Lazarus fell terminally sick;

begging that He not tarry and be late,

multiple messages were urgently sent

forgetting that we upon the Lord must wait.



To justify feelings of utmost despair

the sisters individually met the Christ

with their piercing hollow stares

resulting… Continue
