This New Day is the Next Step in Our Journey
There are no fence sitters where Donald Trump is concerned
And his effect on America and its populace has been biblical
Picture Jesus with Lazarus
However, just as in John 11:39, after so much time in the tomb; "Lazarus" surely stinketh
America,
now alive like no time other than its genesis,
or a major war,
Has spoken
Joe Biden is now President
Awaken!!
Arise!!
Lazarus!! Come forth!!
"The Donald" is gone
Joe Biden has arrived
Once Again
A history maker
First elected to the Senate...

What Do I Believe In
Do you believe in God," I was asked.
It's a complicated issue.
The easy answer is I'm an agnostic. But that's so vague. It doesn't tell what I do believe in.
I believe in possibilities. While it's possible that God exists, it's also possible he doesn't.
In the movie version of 'Angels and Demons', Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) says, "Faith is a gift I've yet to receive." It's the best way I've found to describe it.
Einstein is credited with saying, "There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as...

BE STRONG BE BEAUTIFUL AND BE YOU (INNER STRENGTH)
BE STRONG BE BEAUTIFUL AND BE YOU (INNER STRENGTH)
This is my mantra I'm sending it from me to you, to give you more self belief in everything you do
Look for your hearts fire that burns so deep inside, it's there waiting for you, I promise it hasn't died
You are stronger than you think, you have more power than you know, now the time to fan the flames, just let your power show
Stand up and face the world, this time you don't back down, you take no shit, you call the shots, leave your foes with a shell shocked frown
Let them see the...

Penance
I
death, alive in me
I am pleasure and suffering
a moment of joy and regret
sin and love, change agents...
II
alive in death
breathing in, the end
personal, collective apocalypse
filtered through perspective
one man's salvation is another man's hell...
III
speaking elegant hypocrisy
well said liar
when did sheep howl at the moon?
you are blind with eyes wide open...
death, alive in me
I am pleasure and suffering
a moment of joy and regret
sin and love, change agents...

Used To
I used to watch love take over you
Now I watch love snow on you
And leave nothing behind
But the slushy,muddy remnants
Of long ago confusion
God only knows why or how
You could love me
It's a fairytale in a fever dream
But God, I'm grateful
For all your time
And those grey-green eyes
It started so melancholy
Almost like a sales pitch
Crude and pragmatic--
"Are you happy with your late model?
Come on down to Alexander
We'll beat any competitor's price''
Of course the true...

The Pause
Heaven paused and held its breath,
the Warrior stood to draw his bow
and sighted on the certain death ;
Heaven paused and held its breath.
The arrow sails, the foe's bereft--
for what they've reaped, is what they've sown.
Heaven paused and held its breath,
the Warrior stood to draw his bow.
O' hearken now, these words of woe,
the prophets' words upon the land;
the Red Sea swallowed Pharoah, whole,
O' hearken now , these words of woe.
The passage 'twixt the waves did show
a narrow road upon dry sand--
O' hearken now,...
the Warrior stood to draw his bow
and sighted on the certain death ;
Heaven paused and held its breath.
The arrow sails, the foe's bereft--
for what they've reaped, is what they've sown.
Heaven paused and held its breath,
the Warrior stood to draw his bow.
O' hearken now, these words of woe,

the Red Sea swallowed Pharoah, whole,
O' hearken now , these words of woe.

Doubts
My mind is consumed.
Feeling stressed.
I know I'm blessed,
But right now I'm having doubts.
They say when it rains it pours,
True story.
I know to God be the glory,
But right now I'm having doubts.
Just when I thought I was rising to the top
I get knocked back.
Seems like the devil’s on the attack.
I need to fall on my knees and pray.
I know my God will make a way.
Need to get rid of these doubts,
But it's like they’re tying to stay.
Oh, Lord I come before thee.
Hands together.
Head...

IF ONE CAN THINK IT SO SHALL IT BE
Is it not true that it is possible to achieve that ultimate goal to finding, peace of mind something that we each seek and search for in life as we evolve and transcend mentally and emotionally. Is it not true that it is possible that we can control, our own thoughts and feelings and emotions and still be willing and able, to make and manifest our deepest visions into life's existences. Is it not true that it is possible that the skies are the limit, even when it feels unrealistic with expectations that no one else can see but you. Yet is it not true that only to you it is definitely within...

IN DARKNESS WE TRANSCEND
It is here within the depth of the darkness the light shines through an open porthole, yet we are here alone and afraid as we journey into this transcending moment of silence and darkness. Where we must confront our deepest levels of our fears, and weaknesses and flaws as it is fuel by the darkness of our past. As it comes with it's mysterious ways of holding us frozen unable to walk or move like a block of dried ice. Yet as we try desperately to make sense of it all we don't really understand, just how much life has changed right before our eyes for now darkness has become the new light of...

2020.
The craziest year of humanity.
Fighting to keep our sanity;
In the midst of sickness,
Racism,
Politics
And stimulus checks.
Looking at the news,
Wondering what’s next.
Thinking about what the new year will bring.
Already doubting it’s possibilities.
Sure, this year rocked the nation,
But we have to raise our level of expectation.
For God is still here.
Proving to be a healer,
A way maker,
A protector,
A provider.
He’s about to bring us over
And out of this mess.
So lift your...

Love Is Dead And Makes No Sound
A Love lays dead upon the ground
B His heart has been ripped out yet again
A Pride rarely even makes a sound
A Love lays dead on the ground
A Faith is nowhere to be found
B Nowhere to be seen is love's young friend
A Love lays bleeding upon the ground
B His heart has been ripped out yet again.
B His heart has been ripped out yet again
A Pride rarely even makes a sound
A Love lays dead on the ground
A Faith is nowhere to be found
B Nowhere to be seen is love's young friend
A Love lays bleeding upon the ground
B His heart has been ripped out yet again.
