I said I loved the devil
God knew I really didn't mean it
For angle and for bevel
As a branch to yet preen it
Come the music of the spheres
To assuage all doubts and fears
As galaxies and stars produce a beautiful harmony
O, Perihelion
Pride not your person
Just peace
An idea distribution by Pythagoras
Such an appetite so hard to satisfy
And Geneva's further still
O, Laputa do you love me
And for the point of a planet's orbit
She moves across the sky
As hours pass by
O, decision and cordiality of life itself
A city set on a hill cannot be hid
No matter how messed up it gets
We can always come back....





Chimaera
9-12-16

Hearing in the riff ragged
"don't fill up on junkfood"
For which I'm off in the mood of Stills
And his chloride
Back in the days of right now rocking on
Today with this content with well being
Got to get through today and tomorrow
As saints so ascend and persist to the very end
Come lodestone, our permanent magnet
And another decadent dragnet
Easy to say, "Mundum Odi"
How public like a flog
Time to put on another log
Come chimeric
Our illusions get scrofulous
I pray for them to be on their way
Rocking on today with this
Content with well being
To cease to chase for bliss....

pardoned

Pardoned
10-9-10

I am far from noble and far from wise
And not many of such are called
I am saved by my faith in Christ
Not because I'm good for I am not
Still subject to the base elements of the world
Feeling like a bit of a baby
But I'm still growing
Seem to be drunk on sobriety
Proven guilty as charged
Yet pardoned by God's grace
This is all part of the climb
I feel like voting for Obama again
Trying not to care what my old man thinks
Where every battleship eventually sinks....




Blowing Smoke
10-9-10

Hanging onto my crazy beard
Getting stuck here and there in pits of mud
Writing rotten rhymes
To represent the grapes I have renounced
Some eight weeks ago
I wish I could make my money
By just doing this
Rock stars have every right to hate America
My old man won't agree
For the most part I am above this
But today I am down and out
Just blowing smoke....

just being me

Just Being Me
10-9-10

Some days my voices say I'm pathetic
But so what
Some days I reek to high heavens
But so what
I am not a knowledgeable voter
But so what
My living quarters were always in helter-skelter
But so what
I'm apprehensive of getting back to the work world
But so what
I have my head up my ass
But so what
It is what it is and I am what I am
I am me and that's all I need to be...




Dump
10-9-10

That sucked
But it was something
I'm happy right now
Can't take everyone's advice
Don't want to end up in a flipping hospital
One voice says lay low
The other says you've got to go
Base so seems this state of mind
Base meaning lower than low
Living in filth
But this won't matter to me tomorrow
I can say I'm glad that I never hooked up
That sucked
But at least it was something...

bookmark

Bookmark
10-8-10

I kept the same bookmark for ten years
Yet not tainted by spills of coffee nor my beers
Once an alcoholic always one
So we conclude with the notion
Of, O just what is the point in sobriety
Yet I see this is a better life
Of less depression and anxiety
May us not be afraid of these words
And speak up to sell our story
To help a soul or two
For in such a confrontation
We might just find something new....




Answered Supplication
10-8-10

For years I cried out, save me, save me
And one day it happened
I woke up with no memory of what I did the night before
And I was delivered from my drink
And I still had the will to theorize and think
I never had a hangover once
Correct me if my words make it appear
That I'm still in denial
Pardon me for I am still a sinner
In other fields of dung where I need to watch where I step
So I smile by my conscious choice and the mood becomes real
Taking up this new practice
To know it's more than a way to feel...





In The Now And Then
10-8-10

Discovering precious stones of balas and spinel
Still in my personal nostalgia of cassettes and vinyl
It does not mean that I need to live in the past
But indeed I am glad that I am here and now at last
As tomorrow I pay a visit to Mother
As I put into practice the loving of one another
Waiting for a knock at my front door
As I learn that if I am thankful now
Then later I will know more
As I count my blessings
Of stones of balas and spinel....





I've Already Got It
10-8-10

I laid in bed but I could not sleep
But I have accomplished one sweet hour of prayer
None of this time ever goes to waste
For now I'm back in my corner poetry chair
As it seems I go on searching for what I've already got
As I thank God for what I am and what I am not
The search ought to be over now
For I have the prize in my heart and Spirit....

rampart

Rampart
5-11-16

The vail is done away in Christ
With memory corrupted
And bones that run dry
Blinded in that the day remains
God bring you to a fairer place
To seek a bloody sod for our recessional
Reading readily rampart
Lord of our far-flung battle line
Thy mercy on thy people, Lord, Amen!
But ever unto this day with a resolution
To transcend my ego of shining charms
Be here and now
Resolutions are not laws
Such are ideas
I grow weary in the battlefield
But I must say that God is my shield
And love is the weapon that I wield....




Still Lighting Up
5-11-16

In you I have been blessed
What more can you expect
Lighting one, my pilot sits still
In another version of media overkill
Come the tumult and the shouting that dies
Another beautiful centerpiece
A universe at rest for the sweet buds
Yes every one I've been given
The conviction of lighting up
By the rising of another sun
To turn and walk away
And keep all ego at bay
To accept oneself in the month of May
Taking the dare of curiosity
In all I have to say
O, I have overcome much in my time
Here on earth...

clothes laid out

Clothes Laid Out
5-11-16

Upon whose bosom snow has lain
And for the ark they bring around
Many are to be slain
They left the peaceful river
The cricket field and the quad
And gave glory to the Son of God
There is not much I can do of myself
But to take a novel down from my dusty shelf
Clothes laid our for my next three days
Upholding all things by the Word of his power
Can you hear me and see the spires of Oxford
One day at a time, my friend
And your faith will grow
On a day where chances are....




Run To Obtain
5-11-16

I lost all the other bets I made
I pass the test yet with a failing grade
As a tree may in summer wear
I draw another ace of a new spade
To write about fusion and bark like a chicken
To run to obtain
As the plot doth yet thicken
O, neuropath go out and have another
The devil still speaks of my circumvention
As serenity serves as soil
O, mattock does it even matter
Run to obtain
She said I still got it.....




God Rest You (Happy)
5-11-16

Stop and yield for slop and shield
Cover your face in God's good grace
Research character to straighten my back
Sometimes it seems so far away
I haven't seen the sunshine in weeks now
What's up with that
Come parallelogram and trapezoid
I don't mean to come off paranoid
Our love will make it real today
For if that which is done away is glorious
Much more that remain
So we will take up the khaki
Instead of cap or gown
But even unto this day
When Moses is read
The veil is upon their heart....

behoof

Behoof (How Long?)
5-11-16

Still young and hard and cold
Be strong, it matters not how deep entrenched
The wrong tag along
O, the day how long
Loving her Mantuan maker for the behoof benefit
And advantage of such a wardrobe
But why all of such glamor
One day a week is enough for me
Then spake the mate this mad sea shows its teeth tonight
Take no thought of tomorrow when it isn't promised
Poems are made by fools like me
And I cannot put away these war games for peace....




Upholding All Things
5-11-16

If the misinterpretation of death is engraved in stone was glorious
So much more is the life of he whom prays for us
They gave their merry youth away for the country and for God
Oxford towns and bourdons for indecorum and lack of propriety
Yet sanguine of the color of blood
Wipe off your shoes so you don't track in mud
Yet apple-faced in full due respect
The minorities not to neglect
Obviously I have issues like the rest of you
When being the brightness
Hoping not to bite off more than I can chew
Upholding all things for the sake of you.....

mouthful

Mouthful
5-11-16

O, Silurian where is your savor
Of our Paleozoic
Known for its jawed fishes
And early invertebrates
By definition a mouthful
As a typo I learn of such
And with Sister get back in touch
As time makes ancient good uncouth
Soon to my prime to leave behind my youth
Do we begin again to commend ourselves
Ye are our epistle written in our hearts
Known and read of all men
I see you gazing blindly at your book
And I believe the phone is still off the hook
Of stalwart old
Iconoclasts unconvinced.....





Grand Credo
5-11-16

Wake with the fake desert dust
On your skin for the shake our lust
Still we can but win forasmuch
As ye are manifestly declared to be our epistle
Miracles happen
I got my phone minutes
Turn those tracks towards future or past
In seas deep, dark and vast
I take off tomorrow to spend the day with my cat
Come mounts of anguish
This is my passion
Tis as easy to be heroes
For a check of seven zeroes
But not for it but of it
I pray that my request will go through....





On Second Corinthians 3:6
5-11-16

On a thick chain of mixed moments
The light of burning lovesick Christ's bleeding feet I track
And a sound of my sigh of relief
Yesterday we ourselves must pilgrims be
As so today I just do me
Deep drills into society's bones
She gives me a rolling eyed look
As I take up again the book
Not that we are sufficient of ourselves
When one call was all that it took
He gained the world and its grandest lesson
On, sail on!
Who also made us able ministers
The letter killeth and the Spirit gives life....

caulk

Caulk
9-26-12

Yeah, my pitch is dark and tenacious
In my asphalt of caulk
Made hard in that construction on these roads is gracious
Taking a detour into town to report to my classes where it all begins
As God forgives me when I forgive them of all such sins
Yet under the construction of refinement
Where the loser later wins....




Love In The Greek
9-28-12

Loving the sensation of morning coffee going down
In the Greek defined as my pleasure I'm entitled to in God today
Devoting these hours to the reading of minor prophets
Dealing with the topic of spiritual adultery
Where coffee might serve as the graven image
As the hour of ten rolls around
Loving this sensation just for what it is.....





Open For Discussion
9-28-12

Carboxylic acid is open for discussion
In my subconscious science class I sit in on
When I wander through dark corridors
With books in my backpack over my shoulder
Weighing me down for the refinement
Where heaviness builds longsuffering
In that I accept the challenge
Of carboxylic acid in its resin and tarnish
Of the sap from the mastic tree
Incorporated into today's carpentry....





On Isaiah 34:11
9-26-12

The cormorant and bittern
Yet possess the lower limb
Where they make songs for those who dwell alone
In the isolation that makes such a recluse what he is
In deep prayers and watching and fasting
Where the owl and the raven dwell nearby in another tree
Mostly changed by the merciful coolness
In the early autumn air
In that I find it expedient to care.....

forewing

Forewing
9-27-12

Forewings and elytrons
Sheathe the bodies of entities
Manifested in my view
Of what lies behind
Where we don't miss our water
Till the well runs dry
As I have in my supply filled bottles
Of what I'll need for the oat
O, how long will I love vanity and my reflection
I admire in my mirror
Loving just what I see....




Munition
9-27-12

Our munition of rocks
And stay of bread so are provided
Not to make war but to nourish the soul
And our head ceasing to throw these stones
Across the line drawn in the sand
In that these comestibles are as sustenance
So that we'll have strength  to understand
In such words for the edification
Passed on like the baton
Of a race I run to yet obtain...





Rolling My Own
9-28-12

Rolling my own cigarettes
Today with nothing much to say
To begin again my day
Watch in Spirit and ink
In that benighted is the moment
Of my radical acceptance
To all that is dark in my room
Rolling my own cigarettes today
Yet to see the illumination amongst the gloom....





Starting Over
9-26-12

Starting over in the minor prophets
As if hitting the sunshiny spiritual lottery
Rehashing my definitions of my earthenware and pottery
Starting out a new day with my feline companion right on my side
Yet to know a love that goes beyond dignity and pride
Staring over in Hosea to read of the spiritual adultery
That no one is exempt to
In the things one desires....





Chosen Vessels
9-28-12

Opaque varieties of chosen vessels
Tend to their service
In containing morning coffee
For which I thank my God for
Passing my first few hours in Scripture
To feed my soul with spiritual sustenance
Starting out the day with Neil
Singing about the way I tend to feel
When we face up to what is real....

zephyr

Zephyr
8-30-16

Hoping today is short and sweet
Up and down our unnamed street  to its circuits
I see your fain reflection
When you look in my direction
South into Jokthan
I can lose my eyes to a view of Jupiter
As things hath seen it shall be
And today I just be me
With no remembrance of former things
In the Hebrew Negov
Called on the name of the Lord
Pray also for me saith the pastor
Calling no man master
To eschew this disaster
West into Zoan for our zephyr
Our soft, wild breeze....




Gust
8-30-16


Of gust sudden brief rush of air of lust
In that we're not afraid to care in the dust
In the rags we choose to wear
Toast crust I must say to be already there
Taking the wind in one's own sails
Disconcerting and deflated in burning flack
All Scripture is beneficial written in red and black
Take her and go your way
If it's something you lack
For sails close to the wind
Verging on the breach
Urging us to teach
Propriety and decency
We go out into the world and take our chances
Time to walk over and wait for our block Dodge.....

at work

At Work
8-30-16

As a radio receiver
As a rodeo deceiver
As a writer and a ranger
A rider of a stranger
Lot goes with me in dreams of the lighthouse
I'm all set for today's adventure
Putting on the whole armor
Helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit
Praying always with supplication for all people
Whether you have a job or not
Do all you do for the glory
And masters do the same
Today is a good day to indulge
Loins girt with truth
Under trial Abram succeeds....




Previous Two
8-30-16

Previous two hours
Seem like an eternity
Once for immunity and twice for purity
For our character and maturity
Feet shod with preparation of the gospel of peace
Touch and go with him today
If we but climb the serried mountain peak
Abram's proposal
You are my sister
So I can write till I get a blister
Do all for the glory
Masters do likewise
Servants follow suit
Very much so, professor
He's in his sanctum with Lenehan
Because we're here....

copious

Copious
8-30-16

For divine dealing with the human race
And all healing by God's good grace
Walking not as fools
Submerged in steady pools
Redeeming the time
In that the days are good
Our brook of a number produced and hatched
We incubate our sincerity
To esteem others better than ourselves
The earth is the Lord's and the fullness therof
As Abram departed into territory uncharted
This is what I have to say
Subject to meditate
With morbid persistence
Copious and abundant
Now I'm in gear....





Testing The Ropes
8-30-16

Blessing those that bless you
Caressing those that dress you
Messing with those that stress you
Testing the ropes
Investing in hopes
I think I'll hang out there all day
Today the earth is the Lord's
And the fullness thereof in you all
Families of the earth will be blessed
What am I to do with fear and trembling
In singleness of heart
Time for one more before I go
Don't follow me single and sole
Our uniform applicable to all
And each day is new for pens of blue
And another opportunity to reach out
Loins girt with truth...

frond

Frond Revisited Again
8-30-16

He and She is a beautiful spirit
I have seen the preceding to piece the glamor
As a dweller waiting for a knock at his door
O, produce ones stem bearing its mushroom cap
For petiole and slender stalk
And she still says that I'm all just talk for Pileus
I turn and face the music
Looking towards the inner door
As the dawn doth end the night
O, so glorious our first light
Back into Mesopotamia and Her grand illusion
By Haran our mountaineer
Let's move on....




New Connection
8-30-16

O, stupefy and benumb
Our faculties of mystical rapture
Far from unfruitful
And leaf-like expansion
You are my guiding light for foliage
As in Lichens more blessing than burden
The trouble is worth the gift
Differentiated into our stem
Where theophanies are preincarnate
No longer barred
And today I meet sister Karen
And things reproved are made manifest by the light
See to walk circumspectly for days gone by
Knowing with my heart redeeming the time
New connections say
I thank you, Lord for this is Jesus' name
For emphasis fiery vision bright...

covet not

Covet Not
8-30-16

By our success at Babel
We walk down the avenue again
In one language we speak well  when silent
How are you, Dedalus Shite and Orions that will be
Let it all be named among you
Never to covet nor desire wrongfully
In highest and beyond Joktan begets Almodad
Put on your best dress of cupidity
Good to cover our prayers
No more inordinate
You were sometimes darkness
Fruit of Spirit in all truth
Come let us build our city together
I've been through much since I've seen you last....





On Genesis 12:28
8-30-16

Jesting not convenient
Filthiness filthy still, let them be
Ye were sometimes darkness
As far as purblind eyes can see
Fruit of the Spirit all in all I Am
It's going to turn out a good one
I can just feel it
For comaradarie and stipend
Periodic payment of scholarship
As the petiole of the fern frond
My stem supporting the pileus
And stalk like elongation for Ur of the Chaldeans
And she moved on the solid ground
For our receptacle cleverest fellow at the junior bar
But rather reprove them and carry on
In southern Mesopotamia....

diaspora

Diaspora
8-30-16

Just living for today
Help me share my load by metallurgy
Of intermetallic compounds
In the twilight of an eye
Our everyday example of Henry's law
On the dark side of the street
For partial pressure and its concentration
In mixtures of alloys
By our fertile crescent
Mine dumps and tailings
And all smooth sailings
Chalcolithic bordered by the Jordan
Of the great diaspora
Come let us build ourselves
A city among the whispery shady trees
By the Persian Gulf lifted up again
And then back down on my knees....




Disambiguation
8-30-16

O, black onyx
Apply your makeup
For the cradle of civilization
I'm stepping out again
Over to the island of Cyprus
In our coffer
Ate all the wad back into town
In disambiguation in all determinism
And my chrysanthemum
Look up and say it
Back down to Ophir
Of the table of nations for our ragweed
Rambling again choosing freewill
It's a love and much more words
In my next endeavor
Seeing that nothing save God is forever....






Grim No More
8-30-16

Cadaverous and pale
Where God's love will never fail
Haggard and gaunt
Looking for houses to haunt
Walk in love as Christ loved us
Giving of himself grim and stern
And so much more to learn
Hallelujah he's here
And I had to get on with it
Gruesome cruising
Repungance no longer
Now that my hand is stronger
By Aran and Lud
And Jesus' blood
Set free thrice again
And His native Doric giving
Verb to our hopeless grown
Glad to have made your day.....

numbered

Numbered (Amongst Levites)
8-19-16

Twenty and up go to war in the second month
For Reuben and Simeon
For Issachar and Judah
Considering Christ as well as Buddha
We are yet to number them
But not encumber them
For Joseph and Zebulon
Levites appointed over the tabernacle
In the midst of the camp
Ordained to minister in the priest's office
Now reality
Taken instead of the firstborn
Most of us have closed our accounts
With such running my air twenty-four seven
All or nothing at all....




On Romans 5:5
8-19-16

O, lonely face Levites take
Instead of the firstborn
For Libni and Shimei
For Amran and Izehar
Still up to par
Even if I never had a car
For Hebron and Uzziel
Psychadelia and social scienceand yogi
As long as you have an ego
You're on a limited trip
O, paradox our planter's peanuts
Thinking of you
And in bears the fruit of deceit
Mete out the valley of Succoth
For Moab my washpot
It had to be you to be displayed
Because of the truth
God has poured out his love into our hearts....

ossifrage

Ossifrage
8-19-16

Cruelty knits a snare
Kindness so seems rare
I can feel it in the air
My flesh and skin He hath made old
Surrounding me with gall and travail
His compassions are new every morning
Great is thy faithfulness
Back up at five
This is more like it
Got my seven hours
Why does a living man
Complain for chastisement
Let us life up our hands to the sky
How is gold become dim!
For eagle and ossifrage
Of the consecrated ones
September will be here soon
Our eyes yet failed
For our vain help....




Foxes Walk About
8-19-16

Give me strength to carry on
Redressing the wound at dawn
For Nazarites our consecrated ones
Purer than snow and whiter than milk
As our eyes yet failed for our vain help
Not as an ostrich
To hide my head in the sand
Where emotions create desires
He sits down with holy fears soon to spread
In the dismal shade
With a visage blacker than coal
Come the daughters of Edom in Uz
Not just because
Aliens from the commonwealth
As waning is my buzz
Foxes walk about....




Pull Up A Chair
8-19-16

Lord, renew our days as of old
Can't have peace without chaos
Can't have warmth without cold
Looking for William Hazlitt
A strong passion will ensure success
Where emotions either help or hinder
Regard space and time
The butterfly lands on a brother's hand
Everything is in me
I am the bliss like a wine
Aliens from the commonwealth
Desolate foxes walk upon it
To be our portion
This day of such happy returns
Pull up a chair....

jonses

Jonses
8-19-16

Laying aside malice
To put away all guile
As so sings Alice
We tarry for a little while
Putting away hypocrisies and evil speakings
As I hear the hiss in the riff
As newborn babes to desire
The sincere milk of the word
So that ye may grow
If you tasted that the Lord is gracious
Born again with incorruptible seed
As the Word that abideth forever
Then humility takes its rout
Getting my jonses for morning coffee much too soon....





Aum Mani
8-19-16

Enduring grief
Slandering wrongfully
Make the people hold each others' hands
Honor all men
Love the brotherhood
And see to it on desert sands
As the living stone disallowed and rejected of men
But chosen of God
Christ suffered in like manner
O, shepherd, O, bishop
We are to follow in his steps
Eschew evil and no good of at all possible in man
The opposite of ensue in the sight of God
Of great price purchase your pearl
Aum Mani Padme Hum....





On Lamentations 3:20
8-19-16

Because He of total light
With unbearable compassion and infinite power
I can almost understand the large hearts of heroes
How the skinner saw the rudderless wreck of the stem-ship
Chicken scratch gets worse before skies clear we fly from here
As we are entering by the suburbs in future world
As Soul is humbled inside of His graces
I'm going to miss you
Death and back to conception
Chaos and order
Cold and warmth
Wealth and poverty
Celebrate the opposites
My soul is humbled in thee....

envoy

Envoy
8-19-16

Excellent speech of truth
Let them teach in their youth
As the poor use entreaties
And the rich answer roughly
Our earshot request and petition
I beseech thee for the envoy
No as he says and line
Hewing out the seven pillars
For more page fillers
As a ballade often containing recognition of summary
As she hath hewn out her seven pillars
At Bithynia
Why don't you open your eyes at Capadocia
We've got the right to say we are here...




Kept And Protected
8-19-16

Our pioneers
Out catalysis for civic liberties
Follow the sign for strangers in Pontus
Begotten us again
Unto a lively hope
To an inheritance undefiled
That fade not away
Reserved in heaven for us all
I love you
I'm sorry
Can you forgive me
At Galatia through the sanctification of Spirit
Obedience and sprinkling of blood
Begotten us again to a lively hope
Protected by this power kept and safe and secure
Fashioning and conforming....




On First Peter 1:24
8-19-16

Receive the end of your faith
The outcome of your love
Not fashioning to former lusts
Turn around with me as time marches on
Not redeemed with corruptible things
More precious than gold that perishes
As He is holy to be ye without blemish or spot
Where manifold temptations are a trial of faith
Sure to cry
Lost to that pity
World be no more if he did not make somebody Poor
But the Word of the Lord endureth forever
Thank God for it according to your faith
The grass doth wither and the flower falleth away....

redress

Redress
8-19-16

Yet to redress
And regardless the wound
She is great among nations
To the sound of our invitation
Because of affliction and servitude
See, O, hear and consider
For I am become vile
As suckling swoon
In the streets of the city faint
I love you, I'm sorry
Can you forgive me?
She has become a widow
To create a better time for the snapshot in time
Seeming to be a burden
Got my four hours' sleep and I'm ready for Pa.....




Rosin Pine
8-19-16

For vermifuge
Tonic and absinthe
I rock on till the flock is gone from me
With wormwood as I am drunken with it
Sometimes God says no
Why have so many innocent people died
O, virgin daughter
Thy breach is great
Like the sea as the balm of Gilead
Is available to those that believe
By rosin pine
I'm up for the day
Tastes bad but it's good for you
Come our first degree of a musical scale
Our keynote of thee family Bursere.....





Pray For Tears
8-19-16

No fear of the night
I step out soon for another fix
By the waning moon shines bright
For fragrant gum resins
Tastes bad but it's good for you
Resolution, yeah whatever keeps you in the Word
The Lord's mercies are new every morning
Tears, a bitter gall to hear
I am their music on a warm summer day
This is why I admire Jeremiah
And with some deity
It is good for a man to bear the yoke in his youth....

hexagon bridge

Hexagon Bridge
8-18-16

Time and space to intervene
Seeing every kind of sorrow
Half hour till it's time to go
A wise son maketh a glad father
But he had no way of knowing the scorner, not love
One that reproves him
Addictions are not desires
Only a way of escaping feelings
O, brothel keeper
Seeing the water getting deeper
One more before I go
Batten down the hatches
Days of the afflicted are evil
But he that have a merry heart
Hath a continual feast
Tome to get one more 'fore I go
For my hexagonal waffle cloth....




Swizzle Stick
8-18-16

Losing joy
Yet to get it all back
To penetrate in all parts as the undermine
Today's going to be a good day
For pleasant words as an honeycomb
Sweet to the soul and health to thy navel
Understanding the wellspring
Still one just to do my thing
Sitting down in holy peace
As one to pray and not cease
All for the human abstract
Because of affliction and servitude
Fifteen minute wait
I'll be there soon
Consider for I have become vile
As desires choose me....

taking it out

Taking It Out

We've been to upstate New York
And we're going back again for people greatly wondering and marveling
Killing the Prince of Life through ignorance
It had to happen as times of refreshing come from his presence
I anchor my ship for a long time
O, praise opposites and celebrate the negative
Haven't seen my dad in two years
As my messengers continually cruise away
Time to take it out!




"Thank You!"
8-18-16

Thank you, music
Thank you, Jesus
Thank you good coffee
For the early Roman Kings
Time to raise these frequencies
To fetch my man's body up dripping and drenched
To understand large hearts of heroes
Come sluggards and muggers
Regarding the prudent
Thank God for it according to your faith
And my bell still rings
Without opposites one needs not desire a thing
Without cold no such hot
Without darkness no such light
As I break it wide open
Acknowledge the good
And the universe loves it
As lips of the wise disperse knowledge
Thank you!





On Proverbs 15:15-17
8-18-16

Skies darken
And weathermen hearken
Never a dull moment
Wholesome and conducive
Suggestive of good health
He regards the prudent
Seeing the rudderless wreck of a steamship
For cards all of the same suit
O, reckless fool
Namely me
Correctly and aright
And more sunlight
Better is little with fear
Than great treasure with trouble
Better is a dinner of herbs
Where love is not about accomplishment
But our merry heart as a continual feast  of our sacrifice
Not the abomination
Work through this
Even when it doesn't make sense....

they do!

They Do!
8-18-16

Love is teasing
My charity is not always pleasing
Don't overdo it
In the persistence as it seems to assist
Third hour of the day
These are not drunken
Appearing cloven tongues as of fire
And young men see visions
And old men dream dreams
Sun to darkness and moon to blood
Who that call on the name of the Lord will be saved
Praying for all notebooks to serve God's purpose
And these days they do!




After 9AM
8-18-16

Searching for phrases
To sing your praises
As I write straight on through into the night
I break every book in the rule
For blood, fire and vapors of holy smoke
I'm in no great hurry
Reality is merely an illusion
Albeit a very persistent one
On a day for the fairy queen
Thanking the Lord for where I sit
And wait for the business with a nurse with cold hands
And a warm heart
Whom that call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.....





On Acts 2:41
8-18-16

Look down angel from the starry skies
It's a long and narrow way
Thankful for their company this weekend
In the courtyard of the golden sun
As the Spirit gives us the utterance
These not drunken nor faces sunken
Added three thousand
Save yourselves from this untoward generation
By the gate of the temple called Beautiful
Where a lame man asks for alms
To stop honoring that what-is and the be-all
To be free to focus
O, hocus pocus
Coffee is served
Added are three thousand....

Theophilus

O, Theophilus
8-18-16

Folks losing their possessions and leaving town
It's tough out there
Suffer today
Live good tomorrow
Things are breaking up
Come the pouring of another hot, sweet and black cup
His soul dwells at ease and abides in prosperity
The poison is sometimes the remedy ever of old
Unto thee Lord I lift up my soul
O, Theophilus seen of us forty days
Jesus walks
Buddha sits
And Atman meditates
And I am desolate and afflicted
My bag is packed and I'm ready to go
Not to depart but to just go there and see
Unto thee, O Lord I lift up my soul....





Matthias Numbered
8-18-16

As the bell tolls for you and me
Won't you meet me riding the first class train
The poison is the remedy
For time and love with its claws
Wait for the promise taken out of sight into a cloud
Getting the taste to obtain what I lack
Stoner has lost it
So she used to say
Unto thee O Lord
I lift up my soul
O, Aceldama don't hang yourself
I did it for you and all you gave me was a smile
Mount Olivet from Jerusalem a Sabbath day's journey
Keeping a low profile
Matthias chosen and numbered with the eleven
We'll see them all in heaven.....




On Acts 1:20
8-18-16

Had enough nicotine to kill a horse
And to hamstring a black stallion
Let his habitation be desolate
And let no man dwell therein
And his bishopric let another take
Standing up before a hundred and twenty
Now it's your time to cry awhile
About two men in white apparel
Sorrow is better
Tears are more profitable than laughter
What you believe you can achieve
We yet wonder and open up our eyes
To taste of sugar
My desire today is well being
Judas' betrayal was necessary
Learn from joy....

wisdom is a she

Wisdom Is A She
8-18-16

Reset button
Yet to doodle
O, how salty the Ramen noodle
The fear of God is the beginning of knowledge
Subtility  to the simple and prudence to the naïve
Yet fools despise it
Let's move on!
Fruit of the Spirit
Can be the byproduct of trials
On trails that can lead to the same place
Reading "Feel It Real"
And "Power Of Now"
Time for my leftover lasaugnia
As my midnight snack
O, humble sheep and threshing
Horn in the garden of love
Learn from joy as well as suffering if you can
Crying in the chief place of concourse....





Pick One Desire
8-18-16

My desire today is well being
And to ascend to the foretruck through my clear atmosphere
Don't be afraid of it
This is your wisdom
She utters her voice in the streets
Come the turning away and the waywardness of the simple
As to pop another pimple
Pick one desire
What you believe you can achieve
To eat the fruit of ones own way
Hearken unto her and dwell safely
Pray for it
Get the trial for it's all worthwhile
Enjoying and storming
Submitting and conforming
To this well being
Where reality is merely an illusion....





Remember: Tender Mercies
8-18-16

Time is running on and not just out
Read next Psalm twenty-five
As so my journals are my riches
To but mend the stitches
Putting it all into God's hands
In a house on a hill
Taking another swill
Remember tender mercies and lovingkindness
They say times are hard if you don't believe it
You can follow your nose
Brother of mine talks about a roller coaster
Called Helter-Skelter
The meek he will guide in judgment
Remember the ever of old
Teaching sinners in the way namely myself....

something to do

Something To Do
8-18-16

Still primping
Mentally challenged but being alright
Carrying its own full mother in the belly
And I can go for some toast and jelly
Come my dark-checked bush-boy in me
A wet wristwatch dampens the poem page but it's alright
And my hairbrush is full of water
But I do no magic like happy poker
O, mighty eagle where rainbows fly free
Letting them see the enormous masses
Together we fly
Rejoice evermore
In everything give thanks
Pray without ceasing for those in need
Proving there is always something to live for
Why don't you just use the door
And the mystery is Christ....





Christmas Of Twenty-Twelve
8-18-16

The strength we have inside us
Is more than you will know
And a little bit of faith goes a long way
To get me through the show
Not a novice lest being lifted up in pride
We must be grave as men of dignity
A bishop must not be proud
By my latest invention
Egg nog in my coffee
In Christmas of twenty-twelve
The stone set at nought of the people
Has become the head of the corner
Now viands, social science, our psychedelic
We try to ask him why
The woman picked the fruit
Does this prove anything?
In out lettuce lecture...





Next Scene
8-18-16

Viewing a circle around the waning moon
I have more on my plate than I know what to do with
For wisdom praying and for patience, justice and equity
It's a new day and I'm going out for therapy
Next scene to purify the spleen
Leaves soon cease to be green
Filling the canteen
Saying what I mean
In the year of sixteen
Emulating art is part of the trip
You have so much more to live for
Let's move on!
O, modest rose put forth a thorn....

storming

Storming
8-18-16

For the sweating Methodist preacher
We clap our hands at the end of the sermon
To join in on the unity in diversity
Recruiting at the Alamo
Come and see
Loving, planting cautioning
The kids are in town
I tread day and night
Such roam and out of my bag
I pick a good one
To play on my old school Sony
Hunting polar fins
We share his gun
Rocking at dawn at six the sun comes up
Coming home with the bush-boy
Where the fun is
Ascending to the dump truck
To get again unstuck....




Chalked
8-18-16

Chalked in large letters
Fifty-three days till summer vacation
Taking my place late at night in the crow's nest
To understand large hearts of knees
As no guard could shut me off
O, Lamed
This time around stay out of bed
Prepared for war and peace
Paul's son in the faith
He led him to the Lord
Our lawless and disobedient
Twice atomic committed to my trust
For this cause I obtain mercy
As the ancient are persecuted
And I'm loving my coffee
Like milady
Hot, sweet and black
That we might learn to not blaspheme....




Time To Catch The Light
8-18-16

Loving the prog like the legs of a frog
One mediator between God and man  and that's Jesus
Whereunto I am ordained by giving of thanks and intercessions
For kings and all in authority
Even those corrupt
Getting ready for the light of day
Come Alexander and Hymenaeus some make shipwreck
One more fix before I bathe
O, war a good warfare
As Eve is deceived
And to He belong the firstfruits
To desire the office of an elder is to desire a good work
For white-topped mountains in the distance....

jangle

Jangle
8-18-16

On a catch five point five
Roll over and look alive
Eat not any old man's bread
To be counted worthy of the kingdom
For which we also suffer
And it's only going to get tougher
Work with your own hands
For fables and genealogies
Where the outcome of the Word is love
You let it grow in my mind
Pray to be hospitable
In our jangle metallic coins in ones pocket
Some swerve turning aside to wrath
Rambling
The end is not always the end
As upon faith without sight we also depend....




Go Fetch
8-18-16

Left in Crete alone for this cause
To set in order things that are wanting
For the object for which a thing exists
The outcome of the Word is charity
Victory again at nine
Up at five and doing fine
Hebrew alphabet is followed by the Psalms of Degrees
O, caph, make me laugh
O, Jod hit the road
They fetch my man's body up
Drowned and dripping as so my early morning coffee I'm sipping
Salivating as I partake using my rocking to intercede
For those on my mind to pray for....





Some Stagger
8-18-16

Some stagger at the contradiction
Of terms, "I can't live with myself"
As if they were two different persons
O, how he saved the drifting company
Give a little bit of love and pour yourself a third cup
And this weekend let moderation be known to my folks
I really feel that there's hope
Same ink nine months later
Hello again, crocodile
And what's up alligator
God is good
O, how he knuckled tight
O, Resh do your toil and thresh
O, Schin do you hope to win
Some stagger....

salute

Salute
8-17-16

I rest my cause
Don't lay a leaf on me
In silent midnight still
As prayer O, indictment
Our formal accusation and malarkey
Making perfect sense
We are left at Athens when we could no longer forbear
So we send Timotheus for this making
Of rue and of weal and gradation
I'd like to have just one hour without interruption
And breaks are part of life by the camouflage of the chameleon undetected
By those of authority for malarkey ordained to the sacerdotal
And a long walk home
Destitute of the Spirit
For malarkey.....




On First Thessalonians 4:11
8-18-16

Ears filled with adulterous methods
Woke up short of breath
I wait for my coughing fit to subside
To be counted worthy of the kingdom
For which ye also suffer
Sacerdotal and pastoral officers
Study to be quiet at least till seven
So many false teachers real as well
Not work, not eat
Be not weary in well doing
Pastoral and sacerdotal
The ministry is on fire
A brother comes out prepared with a pillow
To sit on our wet bench
For which we also suffer
Study to be quiet and do your own business....

whither

Whither
8-17-16

So the old story goes as leaves soon fall
For maples I cannot be accountable for
Stables at Macedonia
At Achaia and easy harmony
All in good time
Spreading the gospel
It is my desire that everyone makes it
With and toward
Still leaning on the Lord
I'm just jittery nigh unto you
Namely that is to say specifically
Our entrance to you is not in vain
God-ward not listed in the lexicon
Turning from idols to serve the living and true God
I cannot say this for myself
I can't wait till tomorrow morning
Ensamples to all that believe are my words scribbled here....





When You Are
8-17-16

Our way will be dark and slippery eventually
Prognosis: Phobia
Occupation: to overcome
Exhortation not of deceit
Not for pleasing men
But for God that trieth our hearts
Downhill town spiral as a serpent
And spoonful for desire changeable
Indictable gazing at the full moon last night
When you are all things are yours
I trade my tears to ask the Lord for proof of love
No longer inordinate nor covetous
For the valley below
Using not the cloak
Because you are dear unto us
When you are you can have it all....

splash

Splash
8-17-16

Writing my rhymes for the universities
For the scorpion shadows
Hearts as hostages
And splash of swimmers
For our weed trimmers
Where herds of buffalo roam
And she admires my polished chrome
And I maintain humility
If we met for the time
Could you imagine us falling in love again
Of band-necked partridges
Our views of highways on concrete bridges
By the dense isolated flag
Our force in favor in taking another drag
It's a wicked habit
They are like Balaam son of Beor
God bless the whore
It's just the way I'm dealing with my joy....




Happy Returns
8-17-16

Don't wish to stop you abruptly today
Studying the print of animals' feet
For Silvanus
For Timotheus
And Paul, our assurance
To stand tall in promise
And pledge our guaranty
And no such surety
Yield to the holy ghost
And get the energy you love the most
My head is a lollipop for presumptuous boldness and impudence
Not to brag in using such words
I've got its cliché with prayers and wishes
And many happy returns
And in much assurance
Like nature's brute beasts
Not to judge but to acknowledge....

insulation

Insulation
8-17-16

Apt to teach and preach
If you are a breathing and living creature of the day
Speaking needs buffer zone for the will to do more good than harm
I understand mysteries
The fruit fly is not a threat
Only a nuisance
Profoundly blunt here and there
Until the day we die
Giving ones body to be burned
For the fire of fellowship
Many of us think too small
Our gift needs be insulated
Through the sugar-lick of pink glades
Behind shades
It: Not me!




Insulation (Part Two)
8-17-16

Tired starling
Darkened horses where the sun always shines
Where the shadows run from themselves at the station
Restless diesels of understanding mystery
As of now it is ancient history
Keep it protected
Something pops and the light goes on
Charity our buffer zone
Isolation, now forgotten
Yellow tigers best of efforts
Have little effect on hurting hearts
Say aloud Jesus loves me to soothe the stars
Whereby angels that gather
O, love so insulated
Question: how do you get it?
Answer: It just is
Fruit of the Spirit
Against which there is no such law....





Nothing More To Fear (When The Coast Is Clear)
8-17-16

Consider Trataros
In the Greek nether world
Face up to it and you should have nothing else to fear
As gifts can keep you out of trouble
And unspotted from the world
Getting wounded and offended
It happens
The devil wants to keep you
From speaking out for God
You say you don't believe that
But to each his own
No offense
I'm just doing my thing
Without love it doesn't work
The more you doodle
The tastier the noodle
For victory at nine tonight...

catkin

Catkin
8-17-16

Staying close to the Word
In the face of calamity
When you do you never get lonely
It's just my foolish pride
Begging darling please
O, shrug thee shine your changing foliage
Of simple leaves and flowers in catkins
Clothed in sheepskins
For children will be our teachers
As kindred spirits
For vermillion of mercuric sulfide
We do confide and just enjoy the ride
Focusing on the foliage
With the two dogs in the back
And great Christian virtues
So far, so good, so what?





Fruit Fly
8-11-16

Have no fear, me myself and I
Back over here
Landing on my page a fruit fly
Tell the truth we judge and plead
For all want and need
Looks like a whole new world
I can feel it
O, the comely hill of Golgotha
I can see it
Have not charity and it profits nothing
One truth, one illustration
One type, prophet, poet, pilgrim and peasant
If you see a turtle on the top of a fencepost
You know he had some assistance
Yet to be moved by the Spirit
Even in deliverance
The secret to elevation
Is delegation....






One Unity
8-17-16

Nothing God has for us to do
That we cannot afford
One unity, one bread
Yeah, one Lord
Knowing His destiny
We can face ours
O, abase and abound
Shot rings out in a Memphis firmament
Go there and see it for yourself
Come eight wonderful qualities
Against a ninth to build a buffer zone
By insulation
We have a privilege in this gift
Yet deluged with people that want to talk about it
O, take your talent and use it for goodwill
Dwarfing the situation in peace and tranquility....

soursoap

Soursop
8-17-16

Many nations that pass by
say to our neighbors
Wherefore hath the Lord rove unto this great city
Where all our pastimes shall be embraced
God will provide in all deficiency
By sourwood and sorrel
Our tree of the heath
Trusting that it will still be here when I return
For our soursop of such Annona grass for edible fruits
All things are yours
And yours is God's
Today, o beat the odds
By his own glory
It's a beautiful day to fill in the gap
Somewhere O soursop
We will manage and cope...




Osier (Alder)
8-17-16

Add to virtue knowledge
When I was in high school
I knew the good trip of collage
Add to knowledge self control
And you'll be always on the roll
Praising God for my support system
Good for my soul
O, where is the sun
For Osier and memory
I look through the lattice and I see the light
Son of Josiah do your thing
Bemoan not the dead
For they are alive and well somewhere
By dogwood and alder
Where is the love?
Barren but not idle.....

Lychnis

Lychnis
5-11-16

So far conscious eight hours straight
Now thanks be to God
That it is as it is
O, Gee Whiz
Be my froth, foam and fizz
And all of the other idols we can muster up
Come Lychnis and our champions
Going up against Clampiont
Looking for Andrew Marvell
To his coy mistress
He writes about the reflection of love
Another good read if I ever get around to it
For we are unto God a sweet savor
In all that rove the planet up and down to and fro
All I hear is passionate music
And songs written about reality
And a reason to begin again.....





Silurist
5-11-16

For a slackening of tempo
May we slow it down just a tad
And find that life isn't all that bad
Upward still and upright we fly from here
Come Vaughan known as the Silurist
We dig up your guns so we can lay them down
To delay and impede
As one to see the need
On a cold desert moment
And nothing much to say
Keeping abreast of truth
Lo, before us gleams for champions
Of notched and fringed petals
And with all due respect , my chastity
I practice for a slackening of the tempo....

acquieced

Acquiesced
5-11-16

Shew me something that will help me to hang in there
Today and tomorrow
Having the rights who dare maintain in holy ashes
Freedom's new-lit altar
Fires
Strike up a conversation about your music
And God will do the rest
Yet to acquiesce
And pray for love, joy and peace
Against which there is no such law
For the gift of curiosity
Keeping us keeping on
In the distance I can see the town
Where I was born
Yet replete and abundantly supplied
To whom ye forgive in His person
All is well with my soul....




Purport Revisited
5-11-16

For all restoratives of agents authentic
It was a long walk home from collage
They all rank strangers to me
Come strength and consciousness
And a lot of static in between
Often a false appearance
Where items soon go on clearance
Come the scent of cinnamon
Shuttered and bordered with signs that just say, "Gone!"
Now thanks be unto God
Which always causes us to triumph
And make manifest the savor of his good grace
Lo, before us
Glean her campfires
Where the wood is dry enough to burn
Yeah, I have a lot to learn....




Five-Eleven
5-11-16

O, Replevin remembering brother Kevin
And actions to recover the peace furthermore
When I come to Troas to receive these rhymes
In another dream of going there
A door is opened unto me of the Lord
And I step on through to reach out to you
Having not much rest in spirit today
Exploding with new and fresh material
Asking myself why do I do what I do
O, Replevin
May it be brother Kevin
Or five-eleven....

squirrel

A Squirrel Survives
5-11-16

A squirrel survives the climb by day
I've got a shiny small blade
I'll cut you in half
For what you're made
Mixing it together with a mind
Wishing for real leather
Some say it is murder
O, such stinging stagnant words
Stick to me like the addiction
A fire down the road
Coming up here
Consorting with Paul and Silas
Branching out into many broken twigs
I what am I even doing here
For out of much affliction and anguish heart
I write unto you in this fashion
For more abundant love to you....




Mouldy Provisions
5-11-16

Truth of contradiction on our minds
With belief in the oxymoron
For lemon rinds out of guilt of curiosity
In using such metaphors
Great is your reward in heaven
Hoarding it in mouldy parchments
The last to die for a mistake
And I write the same to you
Counting the miles
You and me in a country that ought to be free
Looking back on previous pages
I sacrifice my time
Getting lost in my phones
Having confidence in you
All that our joy is mutual
With past's blood rusted key
Where the wise men were all fools.....





Blind Enough To Return To Sea
5-11-16

I jump overboard
And sacrifice the boat
Sweating it in the taking of another note
I don't care if I'm crazy
In such times where I stand for what I believe
As coffee and smoke heat up my esophagus
For better and worse
We ourselves must pilgrims be blind enough to return to sea
And I hold you in my heart for a downtown window fused with life
O, the same that makes me sorry by me
God forbid
God is my lover and not my jailer
If any have caused grief
He hath not grieved me
Sufficient to such a man contrariwise....

public

Going Public
5-11-16

Donate today
Coffee for our troops
Almost forgot my Captain Crunch and Fruit Loops
We are as wise men of prudence valor
It's a different feel of steel still learning to fly
As his manner was he went into them
And I take up this example to reach out to my community
And stand up to the big bosses
And this will go public for candle lights so dim
Not to be hidden under the bushel
It's a cooler day besides the tracks
Babe, I'm serious and beside myself
Where pride only says
I don't need your assistance...




Climbing By Dark
5-11-16

This will soon be again sunny
I must die for I have tasted honey
Voice gone weak and coarse
And tongue frozen
But yet to be as one of the chosen
I share it with your spirit
They found him not
City on an uproar
Assaulting the cause of who I am
A rabbit in my het
And a collar up my sleeve
I still love to smoke
But it's no joke
Climbing frozen twigs by dark and pretty sights
Trust less of what you see above such iced twigs in the dark
And her scintillating spark....

tracks

Besides The Tracks
5-8-16

Sunshine in my stomach that hungers
It's been my fantasy for crabmeat savoring
That thought sunny and windy this morning
What else is new?
But I determined this
No harm is done
In getting a good head start
For beautiful hues of green
Finally she comes around
A chilly day besides the tracks
Noted by their strings
For out of much affliction
So is this addiction
Turn those tracks between future and past
And soon I will know coffee again at last
For sunshine in my stomach
O, how sinful!



On Acts 17:1
5-11-16

To God's supreme design
I wanted it to be all mine
And out of much affliction
So is this addiction
O, joy, this new pen and notebook
Call me back Asap
And we'll do business
Passing through Amphipolis
Wherever that is you want room for cream
Right, I'll give you a fork in the road
Since the first man stood
God-conquered with his face to heaven upturned
And I am as one learned
I play the drum set in a dream of being among the spurned
To God's supreme design...

gossamer

Gossamer
5-8-16

Slavery the earth-born Cyclops
Fellow of the giant brood
I get my Papermate in the mood
She works for me on Mother's Day
This morning sunny and windy
Gossamer, delicate and tenuous
Finding a focus in my face
Soon I go home to my Grace
For rainbow halos
Like the angels wear
Another dim candle cruel but fair
O, sound that horn and spit out your scorn
A tippet for the shoulder
Soon I am one year wiser and older
She's tuckered out but not far from home
Gawky and ungainly
Happy Mother's Day
Angular, bony and lean
You know what I mean!




Weedy
5-8-16

Weedy, spindly and gawky am I
I don't want to tell another lie
In all angularity for echoes on the broad Everglades
O'er earth's chosen heroes
And God's supreme design for tippet and covering
And horrible calligraphy
I walk north in my shades for a casual viewing
Of people in their struggles
The rude grasp of the moment of truth
I join Mother for a lunch before I return
And God knows I have a lot to learn
As of fur with long ends
It all depends
At the chime of noon
I know I'll be home soon....

bondservant

Bondservant
8-17-16

Late bathing today
Never scathing for such
I pray our mural landward
I love them no matter what befalls the conscience
Yet leptonic and muanic landmarks
Loving the last days of summer
As the harlot as well a sister to me
Out socializing
Missing a call from Pa
If these things abound in you
Make your call and election sure
In muonic mass walk barefoot on the grass
Landward....





Lepton Bronze
8-17-16

Come with me to the cannibal landwards
And you will see what you wan and need
Exactly what you want to be landward high leptons and drachmas in my pocket
If ye not hear these words we remember them on a later date
A hot date with fortune and fate
Add to brotherly kindness love
And to knowledge self control
Not exactly in that order
As we have the prophetic Word confirmed
I swear that this house will be inhabited with the Spirit
Cutting down choice cedars
Where winter wolves warble
Thou art Gilead to me!





On Second Peter 1:17
8-17-16

As the hand on Lebanon
I will overcome
Casting choice cedars into the fire
By my glen and its secluded valley
It picked me up for drudgery
One day to be in turmoil
In that we forsake the covenant every day
To eddy, whirl and roil
And given plunder and spoil
She's going to jump and shout
When the train comes around
I'll be going through it
Learning to embrace these quirks of disquiet
Take these stripes and wonder
This is my beloved son
In whom I am well pleased....

sensitive

Sensitive
8-17-16

Sensitive and vulnerable to her energy
When the fullness of the time is come
Nobody knows when I'm troubled
Execute judgement
Let my fury go out like fire
Deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor
Pleased with the foreign as well as the handsome
The heir differ nothing from the shoe
I was off the deep end with her energy
O, let the feast begin regardless
To feed upon small lambs not keeping tabs
Come the yellow-crowned hero
She differs no more than a sister
For the walnut tree over the well
In the game of my trouble....




Speak There
8-17-16

In bondage under the elements
Having escaped the corruption
Being even more diligent to make your call and election sure
Waiting for medicine
by the inventions of Franklin and Edison
This is all that I do today
Lest my fury go out like fire
I am for thee
O, inhabitants of the valley
And rock of the plash
Speak there
Execute judgments
For we all have the right
Go down to the house of the king of Judah
Come the fire of the forest
It devours all things round about you....

hello to Janet

Hello To Janet
8-17-16

Hello to Janet
The fairest on the planet
The law is not of faith
Though it be a man's covenant
Keep on cranking them out
If inheritance be of the law
It is no more of a promise
But God gave it all to Abraham
I believe in a better place and a higher calling
The world is a place to play
That no man disannul in America
Faith comes about by hearing
To those who obtained like precious faith
Something good is going on today
To balance the law of the man up above
In America and everywhere else....




You Make Me Sweat
8-17-16

Learn of all my vein
My Lord, my craw as Scripture concluded
All are under sin
You make me sweat
The law was once our schoolmaster
To bring us to Christ
Put him on like a jean jacket
Sometime next month
Most of us hate change
Differing nothing from a servant
The heir differs nothing
Even so we when children in bondage
Delivering the spoil
Hold onto love to set my face against the city
And after another smoke turn to the Dell and face the music
Through patches of citrons with silver-wired leaves we find it.....

Back In The Feasting Mood
8-16-16

If I build again what I have destroyed
I make myself a transgressor
For through the law I am dead
That I may live unto God
Eventually Peter was martyred
And we find it not odd
Eating with the Gentiles
Hanging out with the wicked
With no such partiality
For rages yet to be written
As my elder cat still thinks she's a kitten
Turning back the weapons of war I set before you
The Way of life and death
O, let me catch my breath
In the light of his coming
And drummers drumming.....





Clothed With Humility
8-17-16

User still busy
Fourteen minutes and I'll be out of here
Why not go now?
Clothed with humility
For this junk in the system
In a country at battle
Sheathe the snakes
Skin from her rattle
Saying to Zedekiah
I turn back your weapons of war
Set me on fire today, O Jesus
Rock will never die
Going out to fall to the Chaldeans
That besiege us
Back in the feasting mood
Praise God!
Why not go now?






For Good
8-17-16

Of heap and cairn
One doth sleep in blankets of yarn
You ran with all the glory
And stood right by our side
I live yet not I
But Christ lives in me
For the curlew on the shore with bill curved
Doth be sober
Be vigilant, she in Babylon, elect
As the rainbow in the west sky
Such but reflect through the law dear to me
I do not frustrate his grace
Setting my face toward this city for good
I'm up for the day
Hello to Janet
Christ is not dead
In vain who hath bewitched you
Imputed unto us for good.....

Galations 2:6

On Galatians 2:6
8-16-16

Going home to Mother on Labor Day weekend
God accepts no man's person
James as our pillar
Cephas as another
I still think of you, my brother
Giving right hands of fellowship
Because of false brethren brought in unawares
Since Christ suffered we will as well
As the Turbo swarms across the borderline
Metallic and acidic this strange taste
In a mouth that has tried much in my good time
And so blessing I wish to leap
Me in my head
God accepts no man's person...




Ate My Eight
8-16-16

Ate my eight soon to be nine
Six years so far without the sweet wine
O, Darling, my only life in a twenty ounce cup
I have my whole life ahead of me
For songs yet to be sung
Of ten thousand shields and spears
As one yields to doubts and fears
Carried away with dissimulation
Jews dissembled likewise yet inwardly
As the fresh water whale
And so a blessing I wish to send
Like a picture on my phone
You are not alone
I ate my eight....

ellipsoid

Ellipsoid
8-16-16

Firm and steadfast
A word to but outlast the splint but not a cast
It's the best thing that ever happened to me
Grabbing another big round stick that does the trick
Doing good as to a faithful creator
In the flesh arm yourselves likewise
On another day of Lee and Lifeson
Got to have it on my old school apple
Oval and ellipsoidal
Our omission from a sentence
Undesirable from the context
Say, yeah, got to have it
This is the spirit of the jukebox
In my front pocket....




Chrysolite
8-16-16

One hour and I'll be out and about
For the contact in your head of solitude
Come our solid figure whose plain selections are the ellipses
And the coffee is amazing
It is my policy to get what I need
Before I order up my first cup
A question of my honesty olivine
Of basic igneous rocks
Peter says it well
Where the church stands against the gates of hell
For magnesium iron silicate
Another story to tell
Deciduous in derision
Still on the wagon
Six years now and going strong.....




Fourteen Years Later
8-16-16

As far as I know you're on
Deciduous and transitory
With the energy and emotional feedback
From that cheap amplifier , our pivot
And another good conversation with my hedge
Commonly grown in desert sands
God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble
In the light of his coming
As I on this night idolatrous observation
For all endometrium
Titus the Greek uncircumcised
All sunflower!
Weary of time....

tyger

Tyger
8-16-16

Today a grease monkey
Anointed in the oil of gladness
Little fly, thy summers play
There comes a time when the blind man takes your arm
Somehow on a dream you just want the cup but you don't want to race
By the writing of another ream
If you take it patiently
Yeah, you're all at sea am not I
I fear the wolfish howl
Wake up and smell the coffee trusting and hoping
Rusting and groping
His ears are inclined to our supplication
First forty-three pages are torn out
Tyger burning bright....




Oil Change
8-16-16

Dwell with them in understanding
Living the blues all night long
Vallery, what's the matter
With me I cry, "O, violence and spoil!"
In need of a fresh change of oil
Overwhelmed by my honest engine
To watch for my halting
Not afraid of the heatwave
As another diamond in the rough
Let us seek peace and pursue it
With all creatures
The morning butterfly lands on my hand
A person of uncultivated worth
This much I am today for peace on earth
Of he that loveth life to see good days....





Scarce
8-16-16

Living off almond M&M's
Plenty of protein in coughing up phlegm
Of the righteous one is scarcely saved
Where will the sinner append such as is yes
All of us blessed be the day
When I was born of staunch
Watertight our downplay to yet belittle
One who thinks to own the prize
Making peace with us by wars against us
A six inch battlefield
In the middle of my skull
Scarcely and with difficulty
For foreign objects of their beauty
To take in the view would be my duty.....

reeve

Reeve
8-16-16

Honor the kings' servants
Be submissive
She didn't put poison in your cup of tea
For the mission in the rack to cool things off
That's the idea
We make a fine connection
Lord, you can see it's true
O, reeve in a game of whist
Make up that grocery shopping list
And stick to the plan
As well the roe for this is the will of God
That indeed I am....





Sail On Along
8-16-16

For excellent, our praises
I take up a melody
Of plumage mottled
To pass a rope through a hole
Sail on along
Early form of Bridge without bidding
As Lyca's parents go over valleys deep
Comfort in my home
You better believe it
To see what I can do about it
And no more doubt it
Pale through pathless ways
Sail on along
Rising from unrest
The sun is up and the lights are out
And the music is on...




Aftertaste Revisited
8-16-16

Shine on
Keep on trying
At the light of dawn
For my gold I am mining
All nights in weal in just being real
No guile in ones mouth
More than a way to feel
While the lioness loosed her scorned dregs
I must confess famished
Smiling strong
Stay hungry for dinner
Out Friday night
Tore up over you
I need to learn how to relax
Still paying that sin tax
I'll cross the bridge when I come to it
In the sweet delta dawn
A spirit armed in gold....
