I Still Wanna Know Why
These Hell testimonies...are they accurate? Muslim seeing Jesus. Folks from other religions seeing Jesus. I just don't...I don't understand it. I've heard also that it seems random whether someone goes to "Hell" or not, and that their life circumstances determine their afterlife. But I don't know. I don't understand.
Christianity is the only religion it seems that talks about unconditional love; it feels so right yet so wrong.
Why does Jesus think I wanna be like the Christians who are eager to point out my sin and that I'm going to Hell rather than actually...

Spy
I come to church, so I can later reveal all their secrets. Those dirty, dirty secrets.
Not sure if God can handle me. I'm brutally honest, and if that involves cussing, I will!
I'll call the devil's number to point out all their sins. Heh heh.
They don't call me Princess of Hell and Earth for nothing! My name (Sarah) means princess.
Whether or not I go to Hell I'm not sure. But I want to feel free!!!
God knows I have a dark passenger that needs taming. Creating dark art is the only way to do this. I cannot be afraid of those who want to...

Finding Out Who I Am Outside of Religion
Letting go of not knowing the mysteries of this world and after is the hardest thing to do. What if there's a hell? What if I'm going there? What if? What if?
I don't have the answer. I'm spiritual for sure, but I'm not the one taking away the rights of gays or making sex education weird.
I want to live outside of who's in spiritual danger and who isn't. Live outside of a sheltered, closed mind. My mind doesn't work this way. It seeks possibilities. It seeks the bigger picture.
I don't wish to label myself when it comes to religious views because it doesn't...

My One Wish
I don't ask for bravery like Paul.
Nor brute strength like David.
Nor wisdom like Solomon.
I asked to know
the suffering of Jesus Christ,
so we could be
deeply connected.
My spiritual brother,
Jesus.

Sexy Girl
You told me you knew Jason,
that you were having his baby.
Sad little Sarah wanted to scream,
but Alia wants to know your little secret,
sexy girl.
You got a sexy smile,
there's a secret
behind your madness.
Just like Jodi Arias's
sexy little ass.
Stab, stab, stab
her boyfriend 30 times.
They say evil men
and prostitutes will enter
before the Pharisees.
That little place called Heaven.
I know why,
sexy girl.

Respite Under Arches
O house of splendor, temple divine
With vaults that in gilded radiance shine!
Thy arches soar, as prayers take flight
To pierce the veil of the eternal night
Thy pillars, twelve, as prophets of old
Proclaim the truths in stories told
Each stone a witness, each wall a creed
To Him who hath met our every need
The rose-hued glass, in splendor bright
Transforms the sun to heavenly light
Its beams cascade in hallowed streams
As angels sing of sacred dreams
The sacred font, in marble hewn
Doth whisper of the coming...

Transforms the sun to heavenly light

The sacred font, in marble hewn

The Love I'm Seeking
I do not seek stone that is the Christians,
always holding so tightly to their doctrine,
ready to point out offense towards God.
Ready to give you verses and relay
"the truth."
I talked with one in particular,
and it was a disheartening experience.
I merely made a joke,
and he accused me of
offending his God.
Oh, dear Lord,
please tell me that love is more
than stone.
Please tell me I can still be special
and not a slave to ritual.
I must be free...
I have to be free!

Wanderings
Through barren wastes of ash and stone
The ascetic walked, in faith alone
The sun, a pyre, bled red and pale
As winds did wail a mournful tale
His flesh grew weak, his breath ran dry
Yet prayers rose up to pierce the sky
When from the dust a shadow loomed
A saintly corpse, from grave exhumed
Its bones did gleam with spectral fire
Its hollow eyes burned fierce, entire
“O pilgrim, lost in dread’s domain,
Rise now, and walk the path of pain”
Its voice was both a hymn and cry,
A beacon bright, yet sharp with...

Another World Away
As April's fingers curled around the stem of her wine glass, a delicate dance of trepidation raced in her mind. The rich red liquid swirled, catching the light, and with each gentle sip, she felt the warmth of the wine spread through her, like a secret being whispered from her lips down to her core.
April was short, no more than 5-feet with dark shoulder-length hair parted to one side. She wore black-rimmed glasses that seemed a size too large for her face. Her face was clear and pale with hardly any makeup. She wore a full-sleeved knee-length dress that made her look like a...

And The Dragon Fell
In visions dark, the heavens split
The dragon falls, by wrathful writ
Seven heads and ten horns laid bare
In numbers fierce and symbols rare
By sacred signs, his end is known
A mystery in stars was sown
Twelve radiant crowns on woman’s brow
The serpent waits, yet falters now
With sevenfold seals, the Lamb’s decree
A ciphered truth, a prophecy
Each symbol holds a hidden weight
And binds the beast to coming fate
A shape divine, a holy form
A wheel of fire, through stars is borne
Its angles traced by angels'...

An Angel and The Gallant
Upon a steed so swift and fair
A noble knight rode out with care
A helm of steel, a shield of might
He ventured forth in holy light
Then from the heavens, clear and bright
Came forth an angel, robed in white
With wings like dawn and eyes aflame
He called the knight by secret name
“Lo, knight of seven virtues true
Thine heart is pure, thine courage due
To lands afar, by holy grace
Thou shalt be guided in this race.”
With trumpet’s sound, and sword held high
The angel led him ‘neath the sky
They crossed...

Mysteries of The Ascension
High in the heavens, past earth's dim sight
Where clouds and stars embrace the light
The Lord arose, in holy guise
Beyond the reach of mortal eyes
What mystery binds His upward way
As angels sing and watch and pray?
What secrets lie in heaven’s span
Unknown to dust-bound heart of man?
The stones bear witness, cold and clear
To steps that vanish from us here
While faith and wonder rise above
To realms unseen, in perfect love
Did angels lift His form on high
Or light itself dissolve the sky?
Did winds...
