abase and abound

Abase And Abound
12-30-15

A certain measure of righteousness
To practice such and never get bored
And to have as much coffee today as I can afford
Tomorrow is a no go
I've got things to take care of in my walk
In my closet twenty-five empty canisters
Of verily my unconcealed truth of the matter
With seeds to scatter
One God, One mediator
That is Jesus, a ransom for all
And when they were come they gathered
Another chance to score
But not like you would think
You float when you try to sink
Abase and abound....




Happiness Overrated
12-30-15

O, message and messenger do your thing
Note for later on
Take a break and pray
Even if it means lighting up one
It's alright to be happy today, of course
Dearth in the land for truth
Allowing today beard stubble
I caress it to stay out of trouble
Turn and turn again
Roll over and act alive
Hold your breath for the count of fifteen
And the light goes out
I rest my case and release my vanity
Where sorrow is better than mirth
Don't wander off too far
Ten out of a hundred on Sunday I give
Feeling unlimited
Eyes on the prize....
