Naturalism
When the world falls silent
After an uncomfortably long pause
I will be completely alone
While the buildings creak and the crow gnaws
Finding a path along the crest of the mountains
And living naturally upon life's bountiful fountain
After an uncomfortably long pause
I will be completely alone
While the buildings creak and the crow gnaws
Finding a path along the crest of the mountains
And living naturally upon life's bountiful fountain

Puppeteer
Is it just me,
Is this life just a joke?
An imaginary illusion
All mirrors and smoke
“Trick them I will
Let them think, feel and see
Believe in a greater purpose
How naïve they can be”
Am I fool here on earth
A mere puppet with strings
Hanging here waiting
For the masters next fling
Today you’ll feel love
Tomorrow it’s sorrow
Yesterday was sanity
Master decided to borrow
Sway over that way
Move in that direction
Is it really our choice
Or are we just a...

Can't feel God
I let the Devil take hold of me again
I gave him an inch
And he took a mile
He got in my head
And took my smile
Insides burn with
Embarrassment and regret
It's happened before
You'd think I wouldn't forget
I can't feel God
Through paranoia and fear
A desolate situation
Where no solutions are clear
Feel like ending it all
To get rid of my guilt
I've destroyed everything
That I've ever built
That's the Devil talkin'
He's always very near
And the line that divides us
Is...

Forgive 77 Times, Not Just 7 Times
Peter asked Christ, how many times should i be willing to forgive my brother??
7 times ??
Christ replied, no, not just 7 times.
Rather 77 times(Matthew 18.21-22).
Realistically speaking, nobody sins against us 77 times.
We separate ourselves from their abuse way before they can victimize us that many times, usually.
So WHAT was Christ getting at??!!
Well, a lot of the time the need to forgive someone comes in terms of our old memories.
Someone named Jack did something to us 20 or 30 years ago.
But we go over it even now.
THAT is the...

ABORTION - How Bad Is It ??!!
ABORTION IS WORSE THAN YOU THINK:
Not only is the baby killed, the womb of the mother
is defiled by being turned into the opposite of itself.
I mean it is a place for the creating of life.
But abortion turns it into an execution chamber !!
Not only that, in the Law of Moses (the Torah) the Temple is patterned after a woman's body.
And the innermost room ("the Holy of Holies") corresponds to the innermost organ of a woman's body.
Namely the uterus.
Why is this important??
Well, Antiochus Epiphanes was a type or miniature of the Antichrist. ...

Timeless.
Thoughts come rushing.
Like southern wind.
Warm currents rushing to.
A new tomorrow, pushing me out.
Over the border.
In search of the peace i crave.
To state upon God's angels.
Far from the hurts I suffer so often.
A new heaven and earth promised.
When the love will banish all discretion.
The narrow path of trial and tribulation.
You will say is the suffering worth it?
Yes!!!
Jesus is so worthy of all my faith and enduring.
To dwell with him in the house of the Lord forever a prize more...

Gospel Music
Gospel Music is fantastic music because it praises God.
When it comes to Gospel Music, it's something to applaud.
Anything is good if it praises the Lord.
When it comes to God, he should be adored.
Gospel Music is incredible music and that's a fact.
It's awesome and that's a statement I won't retract.

Peace is not Silent
Shared humanity
not hateful speak
words of forgiveness –
required speech
Acts of kindness
empathy, grace
hostility and malice –
compassion shall erase
In service of others
tolerance proposed
sensitivity, sincerity –
trust reposed

Silence
The silence speaks, I tell my thoughts to stay quiet. Because I love the way the silence sangs to me. It says a lot without saying anything,
It feels the room with its presence, yet it remains unseen. It neither comes nor does it ever goes. It never argues or cry, it never leaves my side. It is easily disturb by voices, and the coming and goings of mankind.
But it never complains, just sit and listen, to the stories of day. Day or night, darkness or light. The silence embraces them all. Just waiting for it chance to speak. It sits and waits to be heard, it could be...

Happy Mabon :)
I give this quietly
With socked feet
And caved forward shoulders
Bent over a soot-stained fireplace
That bristles to life at my word
A basket of flowers that lived through hard storms
Rash-red leaves
Vodka for warmth
Please, body of mine
Allow what is good inside
Easily for longevity
See, my racing mind,
To it that I think
Thoughts deep on the rind
Of joy-saturated fruit
Liberated from insects
And slippery rich in fertile dew
That I may live the next year with as many hands as I desire to...

Difficult times
Difficult times
As God took a left turn
(Sinistra, sinister)
Crashed and
Bejeeeesus !
Was crucified
For landing on some
Weird (sacred?) zone.
Hard times
Hard rules.
As God took a left turn
(Sinistra, sinister)
Crashed and
Bejeeeesus !
Was crucified
For landing on some
Weird (sacred?) zone.
Hard times
Hard rules.
