Methuselah

Methuselah
7-8-13

Methuselahs are yet to thrive
Knowing the miracle in that they are still alive
Knowing the light at the end of the tunnel
With faith and trust that I will survive
To consider Methuselahs
To learn what this can mean
Where in another translation
It is said that the horse was green
To win the race that I wager upon
In my faith that indeed again I will.....




Inclination
7-8-13

Today my princes, dauphins and kings dream while awake
Of ordering mild chicken wings
Yet choose to fast according to the inclination
Of being here and now at last
Inclining an ear to the herald angel that sings
Coming in the manifestation of one of convention and originality
Hoping to hang in there where one can take a leave of absence from reality
With his hap and lot just to make it through...




Party
7-9-13

Ecumenical gatherings
Dispute whether or not Jesus spoke English
Where everyone sees it on different levels of discernment
Remembering not here the first three words I was going to begin
Here with of ecumenical gatherings
Around the table of seven
Treated to prime ribs with extra napkins
When it gets messy....
