Coppice
6-21-15


Things of the world grow strangely dim
Speak to the elders
Say to them
Are you come to inquire of me
God wants us to want more of Him
Like roots that never reach deep of my mulberry tree
In dreams I pluck the berries before they are ripe
And am satisfied in a different manner of a strange type
Wondering aloud O, what is all of this hype
Last night I sip the sunset
O, wilt thou judge them
And cause them to know the abominations
As I'm tasting the smell
Where I dwell in my coppice
In a small wood of beauty and bliss...










Baldric Revisited
6-21-15


Self diagnostic
My Dell needed a good rest
Far from being agnostic
I wear my bullet proof vest
Turning the podium over to Greg Allman
I hate the work of those that fall away
But we can keep on going right back to it
We can turn around tonight and choose to do it soon
She will be here and I will get through it
In my coppice and in my thicket
To another paradise I purchase my ticket
My Sabbaths they greatly polluted
Mine eye spares from destroying them
A Baldric across my chest
As we saunter one mile to our west
And in the sea today I invest
No more misfortune
And no more base
In that I know that God's love will not fail....












Bolster
6-21-15


I said, O, my God
Do not take me away in the midst of my days
As I would take up staff and rod
And hope to follow you in all of my ways
Your years are throughout all generations
And I will pick up where I left off
Getting my vitamins from the sun's rays
Ye are the salt of the earth
You are the product of this rebirth
Hear my prayer, O Lord
And let my cry come to you
O, meet me there and O, see me through
A bolster cylindrical
A cushion for my pillow
Take joy in last night's suffering
A weeping for my willow
On a post for lessening the free span of my beam..










Adroit

And I polluted them in their own gifts
Soon to invest today in the sea
A twenty dollar investment
I am glad that I will go there today
In that they caused to pass through fire
And all that open the womb
I wait for Mother's call
To have a happy time together
And I say a prayer for her
In that she is under the weather
Cleverly, skillful, nimble and adroit
Resourcefulness and ingenious
Yet still in ways quite awkward
With oil again I anoint
O, I to them
What is the high place
I cry to them
O, where is my place!










Bamah
6-21-15


In the days of his humiliation and rejection
Much more would be the glory of his resurrection
His name is called Bamah
The high place I reach today
Making the best of the drama
The day ceases to be dark and gray
Son of man, please speak to us
For all about nothing at all we tend to fuss
Yet in this your fathers blasphemed me
In that one goes to sleep and has dreamed me
O, where is the high place to where you go
And how can you be certain
O, how can you know
She's running rather late
But I can wait
In that there is nothing to hate....
