psalm 7
the Resurrection psalm
a psalm of Andrew
1 mark my grave, O Lord;
mark well this spot
in which i sleep;
2 it is a dreamless slumber
and my memories have gone
away from me.
3 the breath i borrowed
with the nostrils
of my dust
has gone back to You, O Lord,
Who made my body
and my breath
a living soul.
4 do not forget me
in this dark place, Most Holy One;
do not confine me
in my helplessness,

psalm 6
the Creation psalm
to the Chief Poet; a psalm of Andrew
1 the light and the darkness
are poetry, O Lord,
2 for You hang the rolling skies
like curtains
to reveal or to conceal
the beauty of Your Will. Selah.
3 You fold the darkness away,
and we behold
the light of day,
wherein we have liberty
to honour Your marvelous works.
4 You usher the sun
into the bosom of your
secret heavens,
5 and we behold
the splendour
of the nighttime skies, ...

psalm 5
to the young guitarist and budding flautist;
a psalm of Andrew
1 have mercy on me, O God,
have mercy on me:
for my soul is bowed down
like a broken string
without a melody;
2 a broken reed
that has no breath
to sing Your praise.
3 imperfect are my cadences,
for i cannot find resolve.

psalm 4
of Andrew, when the COVID-19 pandemic
made its slaughter in the land
1 i will turn my gaze away
from the silent graves
of countless souls,
that i may see Your
outstretched hand.
2 the hand of the Lord
is mighty,
quickening the dead;
3 the grace of the Lord
is abundant,
saving even unto
the uttermost. Selah
4 for You number
every broken bone
by frailty left undone;
5 not one is left unbroken
by the tyranny of sin.
6 shall the graveyard praise...
made its slaughter in the land
1 i will turn my gaze away
from the silent graves
of countless souls,
that i may see Your
outstretched hand.
2 the hand of the Lord
is mighty,
quickening the dead;
3 the grace of the Lord
is abundant,
saving even unto
the uttermost. Selah
4 for You number
every broken bone
by frailty left undone;
5 not one is left unbroken
by the tyranny of sin.
6 shall the graveyard praise...

Chance of a lifetime- chorus
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance for me to change it all
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance and I won't fall
I look out and I see the stars
I see the shining lights up above
I look out and I see the stars
Hoping for some way to feel some love
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance for me to change it all
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance and I won't fall
I look out and I see the stars
I see the shining lights up above
I look out and I see the stars ...
This is a chance for me to change it all
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance and I won't fall
I look out and I see the stars
I see the shining lights up above
I look out and I see the stars
Hoping for some way to feel some love
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance for me to change it all
This is a chance of a lifetime
This is a chance and I won't fall
I look out and I see the stars
I see the shining lights up above
I look out and I see the stars ...

Visceral
Those screams, A7 shrill
piercing razors
and you're lovely still
I watch you breathe
your heart still beats
you have a choice
yet you still touch me
(chorus)
Is this a dream?
Wash your blood over me
let me taste your fear
and I can take you
away from here-
to ecstasy
Grab a hold of me
I'll take you away..
away, away from here
sweet ecstasy
(verse 2)
Rising naked and dripping still,
I've taken more than enough
but you begged me,
you let me..

But The Devils by my side
I try to go to sleep
I try to rest my eyes
I try to find my peace
I try to find my light
I try to find my way
I try to make it mine
I try to run away
But the devils by my side
But the devils by my side
oh oh oh oh
But the devils by my side
oh oh oh oh
But the devils by my side
oh oh oh oh
But the devils by my side
No way out
Nowhere to go
No way out...
I try to rest my eyes
I try to find my peace
I try to find my light
I try to find my way
I try to make it mine
I try to run away
But the devils by my side
But the devils by my side
oh oh oh oh
But the devils by my side
oh oh oh oh
But the devils by my side
oh oh oh oh
But the devils by my side
No way out
Nowhere to go
No way out...

Poetess Amanda Gorman, Youth Poet-Laureate

of wrongs.

the truest

by the dart
of the tart

POETRY ON MY MIND
THINKING
I got up this morning
With poetry on my mind,
So I sat right down
And wrote the first line.
I am not writing poetry
To see a book on a shelf;
I write for one reason
And that's to please myself.
I got up this morning
To face another day;
The words of my poetry
Started me on the right way.
I do not expect or need
The applause of men;
I have unlimited words
That are my best friends.
"What are you thinking?"
I am asked many times,
My answer to simple:
"I have...

Found
only left in memories
keep you there cause
Don’t exist anywhere else
so I’m Left pretending
You didn’t forget me
Winter, Playing in the snow
Angel, Are you cold?
Silhouette Christmas tree glow
But you Leave only memories
Angel, if you’re lonely up there
Don’t worry,
I’m lost but I’ll find you there
Summer, leaves change
And fall, I feel less sane
Hang from this tree till
All colors bloom back
The same beautiful shade
And Angel, did it hurt falling
Way up from heaven?
But you...
keep you there cause
Don’t exist anywhere else
so I’m Left pretending
You didn’t forget me
Winter, Playing in the snow
Angel, Are you cold?
Silhouette Christmas tree glow
But you Leave only memories
Angel, if you’re lonely up there
Don’t worry,
I’m lost but I’ll find you there
Summer, leaves change
And fall, I feel less sane
Hang from this tree till
All colors bloom back
The same beautiful shade
And Angel, did it hurt falling
Way up from heaven?
But you...
