Swill
12-29-13
Of swill and of swine
Of kill and of kine
Holding out for something sweeter
Along the lines of water and wine
On this darkest day
Where the sun does not come up in the east
Of blessing and of beast amongst yours
Yet in the yeast
Swilling this morning
That which cannot be described
Of kitchen refuse and of waste
By which we seek to make haste
Soon to make my transition
In justification and juxtaposition
And the completing of our mission....
On Ephesians 1:7
12-29-13
In him we have redemption
And have been made whole
Wagering my bottom's dollar
Putting on the line my soul
And we have forgiveness through his blood
Like a snowman with his carrot nose and eyes of coal
In that I reek to the high heavens
In the depths of these bowels of mercies
In that in him we have redemption
In all prudence and wisdom by my senseless pastime
Forgiven by his grace
In Him we have redemption...
Woah
12-29-13
In astonishment and of sorrow
By one's woe and weal
To but lend and borrow
In our hopes of a brighter tomorrow
Of deeper emotions to taste of
Yet in the shadow of all rue and regret
In astonishment and in sorrow
In a need to be yet progressive and tolerant
Yet they are not of we in astonishment
And in sorrow the truth doth set us free.....
