Amen
you rot, but karma is
uneven, unjust - so slither, crawl through:
WANT! WANT!
- the mouth full of lust, cries
craving, the end of
the beginning of the last end
of the last beginning. So here, take!
but give not, but Naught, and
save your skin for
a superior pollution -
Contaminate and Conquer,
Divide and Betray.
Whose stillborn pride
is this? Magnanimous
Hoo-Ray! Come All! fall and
fail. Bend the knee,
crude fortune -
Gave up on hope and
settled for enlightenment ...

A Crescendo Of Death
The Bell Tolls
Another soul doth depart from my family tree and soon the branches will all fall and it'll be down to me.
When death comes knocking, I'll not bend knee, I'll stand proud and tall. It's the final adventure, the final thrill and I'll take the call.
---------------------------------------------------------
Tuesday, Midnight
I'm under no illusions we've a certain repertoire. I've danced so near you, challenged you, to burn out my star. It's a strange sensation to have you as my lover, to have you in my being where life is rediscovered....

A CHURCH CONVERSION
A CHURCH CONVERSION
How should one feel when an old church
is not left for Christians to preach?
They behold their ancient glories
are converted to old stories.
How can l endure? I'm Christian.
I observe our own depletion.
Turkey does that near our own eyes
and our hearts obviously defies.
We have nothing but eyes to cry,
looking up and asking the sky
to observe what happens on earth,
where the Christians have lost their warmth.

The Billion Faces of Jesus
Touch not a one
some are women
some are Asian women
nailed, kneeling, blessing
coming in the clouds of glory
These are works of art
others died to sculpt or paint
in quiet liberty
Shall we now deface
their memories?

Man
When were you cast out Brother?
I had named you
Adam
Your woman still lies
In great beauty
Red hair spilled on the desert floor
Great sands pillowing against
Open thighs
As sometimes
In its infinite piling
As it would be rough
With your fingertips
Pressed
Preparing her for entry
Sweet tendrils
Wrap vermillion and dark
Like the cinder curling of
My word as it burns
The ink bleeds mankind
Into ashen wandering
And back again
To dust
In only the blink of my eye...
I had named you
Adam
Your woman still lies
In great beauty
Red hair spilled on the desert floor
Great sands pillowing against
Open thighs

As it would be rough

Pressed
Preparing her for entry
Sweet tendrils
Wrap vermillion and dark
Like the cinder curling of
My word as it burns
The ink bleeds mankind
Into ashen wandering
And back again
To dust

Letter to Jesus
I need you Lord to save me from myself
I'm dying lord because I'm worried about everyone else
Wash me Lord in you pure righteous blood
Forgive me Lord for I know you are Gods son
Guide me Lord through this maze that they call life
Help good Lord and get me through this strife
Protect me Lord from the devils evil ways
Prepare me Lord for the final judgement day
I know Lord that your light never fails
I've learned Lord I can't trust nobody else
Remind me Lord of the commandments and the word
Provide for me Lord so I can use the bible as...

Perpetuity
If I drift please let me know
Through Jesus my salvation will show
The earth the seas and winds obey
So I will hang on to everything you say
Through the bible I will read your word
Because falling into the devils trap is something I can't afford
It's not up to me to decide whats just or fair
So i won't see what I want I'll read whats really there
Out of Adam you created Eve
Now all these years later you made me
So now I must fight off their sins and mine
For me it's impossible but that's why you sent Jesus to die
And up on his...

One step forward two steps back
Doubting myself but never blaming God
Hating to sin but not knowing how to stop
Hurting in ways that I can't explain
Growing restless because everything stays the same
Talking to Jesus but still feeling alone
Still wondering when the holy spirit will make itself known
Giving up and falling on my knees
Praying hard but still the devils holding me
Fighting back thoughts of suicide
Holding onto hope that Jesus is still on my side
Trying to do good but always slipping up
Thinking I have faith but not knowing how to love
From my mouth...
Hating to sin but not knowing how to stop
Hurting in ways that I can't explain
Growing restless because everything stays the same
Talking to Jesus but still feeling alone
Still wondering when the holy spirit will make itself known
Giving up and falling on my knees
Praying hard but still the devils holding me
Fighting back thoughts of suicide
Holding onto hope that Jesus is still on my side
Trying to do good but always slipping up
Thinking I have faith but not knowing how to love
From my mouth...

Antidote
The battle rages inside me
A tug of war
Back and forth for my soul
The righteous path is clearly
Laid out before me
Yet is deceptively
Hard to follow
A life saving antidote
Impossible to swallow
Lord, even though I may stray
Help me keep my eyes on the path
And in my heart please stay
A tug of war
Back and forth for my soul
The righteous path is clearly
Laid out before me
Yet is deceptively
Hard to follow
A life saving antidote
Impossible to swallow
Lord, even though I may stray
Help me keep my eyes on the path
And in my heart please stay

the kingdom
Maybe because its Sunday that i feel so satisfied,
Maybe because i'm worried and honestly I'm terrified
Maybe its the lack of sun or maybe its the rain,
Maybe its because i have the wisdom to appreciate the pain
Maybe I've gone crazy and fell out of my tree
Maybe I fell asleep or i'm not really me
Now it's still a dream and life's not really real
And since I lost my nerve I can't tell you how I feel
Now I know some science contradicts the truth I've heard
But I've looked so hard for answers and found them in the word
One day I...
