Now, I Am

Now, I Am
10-2-13

Now we are the children
And therefore the kingdom
And now we know salvation
Where we don't need to wait for heaven
In my memories of getting coffee at seven-eleven
In that now, O, indeed I can know it
Wanting here to change the pattern
Of all disposition and inclination
To step out and taste of more
Where new indeed I am
And I don't need to wait for heaven.....





Turning Around
10-2-13

By faith I turn back again to the book of Numbers
Quite like the comparison of zucchini with my cucumbers
Asking my God for strength to get through the day
With His Word as medicine to assuage all taken extra care
Told to be anxious for nothing
Turning back the pages
To get back in touch with names of tribes
Hoping to know of comforting positive vibes
If I can feel it this way
Hoping my words will be more than just scribbled ink
By my faith.....





Quoting Cockburn

I wonder O, was Herod paranoid
According to another folk song
Telling the story of the history
By a singer songwriter of the nineties
Numbering those twenty years old and upward
According to their polls
Inclining mine ear to be given my next clue
Of what to do about what is me in what is you
Where redemption rips through the surface of time
In the cry of a tiny bay.....
