exploit

Exploit
3-24-14

The Lord does not see as man sees
Looking upon the heart
And not on the physical stature
Like another beautiful mind that this poet frees
As he is ruddy, good looking and bright-eyed
According to the fact that today again I lied
Arise now and anoint him
For which the priest hath cried
As Samuel doth rise up to go to Ramah
Where I prefer my mushrooms fried
To yet perform my great exploit
Returning to my Bethlehem to yet come and see
As the Lord does not see as man sees....




Harp
3-24-14

O, command your servants
To bring a man who is skillful in playing the harp
Being as one to yet flounder and carp
To discuss the matters of music
Of which many have their opinion
Whether such is secular or sacred
O, who's to say in such a matter
Of the inclined ear to be one to live by faith
That doth dissolve all fear
By which Saul sends his messengers
In that I made my way through one more year
And just as well two, three and four
O, send me to your son
Whom is keeping the sheep
As on all sides we are given rest from war....
