The One Winged Butterfly
She'd been lucky once
As a caterpillar
dropped from the beak
Of a hungry Sparrow
This time though
As a full grown butterfly
She'd been breeze blown
Into a somewhat sticky, and dewy
Spiders web
And when she saw the spider
With it's seven legs
Moving across the web towards her
She knew that this was it
Just hoping it would be quick
And just as the spider
Was about to weave
What would of been an ironic cocoon
Within a silken purse
A heavy bumble bee
Came crashing through the cobweb
Blown off...
As a caterpillar
dropped from the beak
Of a hungry Sparrow
This time though
As a full grown butterfly
She'd been breeze blown
Into a somewhat sticky, and dewy
Spiders web
And when she saw the spider
With it's seven legs
Moving across the web towards her
She knew that this was it
Just hoping it would be quick
And just as the spider
Was about to weave
What would of been an ironic cocoon
Within a silken purse
A heavy bumble bee
Came crashing through the cobweb
Blown off...

SCIENCE vs THE BIBLE
(Or General Revelation vs Special Revelation).
Most Christians think Christ came to take away sin, or "save sinners" like it says in 1 Timothy 1.15. But actually you can make the case that He came to father the Church, ie, the Christian community in order that it, the Church, would produce SCIENCE, aka "General Revelation," God's Revelation of Himself via Nature. By Nature, I mean the study of Nature. And what has the study of Nature become?? SCIENCE, of course. Just like if I say the Bible = Special Revelation, i mean the study of it. For to an illiterate, the Bible reveals...

Navillera
chapter 1 // recollection}
Both my eyes closed
Opens an unknown door
A small secret,
I think you should know.
I remember something so clear
You and I,
Our fingertips brushing against our hearts.
The swirling storm inside
N-n-navillera~
Big, brave and beautiful
Stars afire
Should've known that time
The envy of my loneliness
For love…
Now both my eyes closed just in time
~/chorus/~
Let’s start again,
With something else
We didn’t...

Genesis 1.20 and 1.24 Reveal God's Modus Operandi
Genesis One, verses 20 and 24 POINT TO EVOLUTION as God's modus operandi.
It starts off with God bequeathing to Nature ("the waters..the earth") the ability
to create life ("bring forth the moving creature..the living creature..").
But not only is the original creating of life turned over to Nature,
the subsequent development of the species - speciation - is also turned over to Nature -
in the form of the very first original species or lifeforms.
For we read that way back in the beginning, God endowed each lifeform with the power to reproduce...

Dreams Come True ~
Verse 1}
Why?
Tell me why?
Keep hearing my heartbeat,
Rum-pum-pum, pounding in my head.
My heavy heart, cruelly,
Won’t leave alone, truly.
Silence keeps me trapped now,
Searching, for a signal.
{Hook}
No, I just can’t keep it all in,
No, I just can’t keep it silent.
These voices in my thoughts,
Oh, they’re freezing in me.
{Pre-chorus}
Can’t control,
Can’t help it,
They’re dreams in me,
Wanting to fly~
Now I need to,
Believe.
...

metamorphosis
The end is in the beginning.” (T.S. Eliot)
some place to rest my legs
where i can spawn my pregnant eggs
an underleaf will do
where burning sun cannot pierce through
my ovum flush
is marvelous
my motherhood is prime
sleep, little ones
i’ve got to run
my wings are bound by time
five sleeping days is all
that we can spare before the call
for larvae cannot be
confined without catastrophe ...

The Sacred Art of Self Decoration with Monarch Butterflies
(Butterfly Contemplation)
There comes a time when doing what you want
without regard for other living things,
because there’s nothing that exists like you.
Will show all of your faults, and constant haunt
with smallest creature Mother Nature brings,
until you have the sense for what to do.
And who but I of noble tiger breed,
would take exception being told the rules
and heavy-handed lessons, to become
a new example living by the...

Autumn In The Air - Hooray
Respite from punishing
heat wave - yay
which above line,
could "speak" volumes,
and be a stand alone poem
offering readers
a reprieve nsync
whence roasting, sultry,
and torpid unpleasant
weather since yesterday
boot such brevity,
would disallow
me to extemporize,
but more importantly today
this intrepid word
smith doth "say,"
he would never
wanna miss trodding,
the formerly (golden
in their heyday now sketchy),
sections...

Ars Longa, Vita Brevis, (Valse)
the day goes fast thru brightened arms,
into a
livid glow
that lingers
far longer than
it's worth.
h o w could this have happened, child?
h o w could I have failed you thus?
for what it's worth, the price was too dear.
the torture much too exquisite..........far longer
far longer than...
