Digging
11-28-05

And I have only but scratched the surface
In my penetration of the earth's crust
As there are yet deeper holes to dig into the mantle
Where base metals heap corrosion and rust
And if I ever had a vision to reach the core
I would have to strive to be chaste and pure
Yet such a thing is impossible with the nature of the flesh
So I hope to be led of the Spirit
In fruit that is still fresh
And I am yet to glean of the grapes of the vine
In attempts to digest the doctrine
And partake of the wine...




Staying Warm While Hunting
11-28-05

And we ought to make peace with our failures
In knowing that they are guaranteed
And we need to learn our lesson in giving
To prove that our hearts are not governed by greed
And I am yet to share my wealth
So that my heart will not grow cold
As I honor the Lord with all substance and wealth
And return to the way of love
So that I won't get old
And like sugar I am yet to stir up my gift in my flask
As so I'll pull the trigger
As the hunting of the gazelle becomes an easier task
And the game includes more than just the meat
As so the comfort consists of more than just the warmth and body heat....
