like a key
Like A Key To Pick The Lock
6-10-14
O, supply him liberally from the winepress
Threshing floor and flock
O, send him away not empty
In leaning today upon the rock
This is book thirteen, my friend
Like a key to pick the lock
The ship isn't coming and I cannot pretend
But we will all know each other well in the end
Yet remember that you were once a slave in Egypt
And that there is nothing to defend
I can feel what you feel
It just makes you stronger
You can make me smile in the end
Yes, you can.....
* in this poem I quoted Rush
On Romans 7:15
6-10-14
The law is spiritual
But I am carnal sold under sin
As so I repeat the new mantra
If I snooze then I win
No better than knocking down a bowling pin
As that which I do I allow not
And that what I do I do not
And what I hate, that I do
So that I might reach out to you
The law is spiritual but I am carnal
Yet sold under sin
This is true in me today
I snooze and I win
No better than a bowling pin
And these verses are likened
To a mathematical equation
Like a science to yet purge away my tin....
No Thorn, No Throne
6-11-14
Today I by my conscious choice
Yet relish in the riff
On the edge of my precipice
And the brink of my cliff
In that there is no throne without a thorn
And no glory without gore
And no crown without a cross
Suffering no damage and no loss
And I will begin again today
While by my conscious choice I enjoy the music
It takes a second to say hello
As any circumstance out of my control
Are in the will of God
To come in love or with a rod
To play your lucky numbers even and odd
All is quiet save the music through my headphones
Nothing changes
I will be with you again....
It's Not Me
6-11-14
If I make it through
It will not be me
But God in me that wills
As trials are permitted of God, Father filtered
In where all is well as it is in one's ills
Wherein I make peace with a nemesis
Dying to understand such a stigma
Getting my day started with refills
If I make it through it is not of me
But by his grace I will survive
And on such sustenance
I yet will flourish and thrive....
Crown
6-11-14
I am given a crown of life
In that I endure
Nothing to lose and nothing to gain
But waxing more mature
As change does a work on me from the inside out
I am given a crown of this rejoicing
Even in times of doubt
A new heart is what I need
I can make it bleed
O, is there nothing left
In my want and need
Soon it will be time to sauté my mushrooms
And when I am tried again
I will receive the crown of life....
Jason's Day (Tomorrow Is My Lucky One)
6-12-14
Tomorrow is my lucky day
According to the calendar date
To learn how to love and trust and forget how to doubt and hate
Jesus, thank you for today and for tonight
Now O give me the wherewithal and the will of the know how
By the invisible things clearly seen
Being understood by the things that are made
Even his eternal power where we have it made
Here in the shade God gives through us and not just to us
As so the debt is paid....
Pour It In
6-12-14
As one's voluntary surrender
The truth sets us free
According to the one advocate and defender
By the path of the pilgrim and pretender
God is there because he is in us
By the topic entitled, "I share my life"
In that we are his representatives
To but represent
He that is in control of it all
In that I am not my own
Any more than you are yours
We were bought with a price
Yes, even the gamblers and whores
By one's voluntary surrender
We make peace even in such encompassing wars
I give my life as a living sacrifice
As by such sweetness the coffee yet pours....
Get Up And Go
6-12-14
Let's hold out for something sweeter
Dreaming of the coming of another winter
In which we take up the pace heater
O, can one be both high and low
O, can one be both ignorant
And as well be one to know
O, can one travel fast and nimble
As well as taking it slow
I will quote the psalms today
Referring to my sermon notes
Taken on a day by which to but grow
Don't wait for the seas to part
Or for the Messiah to come
Now is the day of salvation
As God says get up and go
Get up and go.......
Today I will Quote The Psalms
6-12-14
Today I will quote the psalms
And acquire ink spots on my palms
As to be seen I do not my alms
But in secret where the Father sees openly
Quelling qualms today
It is my request to know of his peace, love and joy
Yet to build again what we did once and twice and thrice destroy
Swimming out there in this love
May the name of the God of Jacob protect you
May Jehovah lead, guide and direct you
May he send you help from the holy place
As living gets in the way of being organized
But we get it in order just the same
And we get it together
Today I will quote the psalms
As if it were a report of the weather....
