fiberglass

Fiberglass
12-28-14

O, to burn down the filter of fiberglass
O, to salute my main dream lass
seeking for her as hidden treasures
Like the sap of another tall sassafras
By my dream recall
Where I tried to go back to retail work
In a region of doubt
As defeat did but lurk
One slip and I was back on my feet again
Another sweet sip come Tuesday
To apply another inexpensive ball point pen
By the restless eye across the wind and its rue
We are not to carry their burdens
In what is inside of me and you
I fear that I cannot go on like this forever
But still to this Word I'll be true....





Since Two
12-28-14

Since two in the morning
I got much accomplished
Not to boast
It's all for Jesus
Where love is an act of my own conscious will
And all will be rewarded when least expected
Loving the lights on my east windowsill
O, am I struck like a wide left turn
Of my Fed Ex truck
O, am I bound
To only smokes, coffee and decadence
In its sound swimming in a lake on the border of Indiana and Ohio
If there is such a place
Meaning not to get puffed up
O, am I stuck
O, do I even give a ****....






Dog Eared Page
12-28-14

The last page is dog eared unintentionally
As God has his purpose in such insignificance
And nothing is by accident
Allowing myself a moment to stare into space
And pipe in the music
And to just be here and now
In not need to always rhyme
But still I pull it off
Up since two
As if in a platinum mine
O, heavenly Father
Make me a blessing to all I come across
In hopes to be sincere
O, bless this day in all I do
And say Amen....




jubilation

Jubilation
12-28-14

Jubilation, kindness, love
Omnipotence, passion
Leaving out the me
So I can know my generous ration
Five hours till sundown
But why live in the fast forward
According to the world and her fashion
By more sketches and visions with their crucial choices
And such decisions by lacerations and incisions
I bleed for the cause of this testimony
Chaos in quarters
O, just leave that thing alone
Everything is in its right place
Thom Yorke said this
Leaving out what in me
I can know of Peace and her bliss....





Sustenance
12-28-14

Running a vacuum seems to be a fruitless search
But at least this morning I make it out to church
At least I sucked up all that cat litter in my hallway
Where I would come up with so much more to say
Some pills are hard to swallow
My Floyd fan brother said this
But I did not wallow where nicotine is seductive
As the inhalation I still hallow
What am I going to do in the time between
By beautiful lights of yellow, blue and green
Feeling as if I'm not living up to it
But I still need to make that scene and read the Word
It is my sustenance....





significance

Significance
12-28-14

There is significance
In what seems to be a fruitless search
Which is why this morning I go to church
Stated in the present tense
On a low limb I perch
When the curtain falls I pray for peace
Yes, I pray and not cease
Not seeking after any of such golden fleece
Beyond space and time
So is the writing of another rhyme
I am without limit and without form
I am One to transcend the so-called norm
I am the bliss of the universe
In dreams of my optimum collage dorm
There is significance....




The Klonapin Speaks
12-28-14

When thoughts are not in alignment with desires
So is the signal of the negative
Just as well necessary
To stay grounded in a sin sick earth
Where many seek renewal and rebirth
O, it all seems so fruitless
Wanting to bless the day of my birth
Seeming today to be just spinning my wheels
Where what I think doth influence just how it feels
O, why can't we stay that way
Like clementine peels
And the seeds yet to scatter
O, make it matter...





Ego, Hindrance
12-28-14

Ego doth serve as out limitation
Making one real and no more after the imitation
Trying to impress the theme of the empty
Whatever that can mean
O, million accomplished
I came, I saw, I conquered
Come the whine at noon
I know victory
Most of us have closed their accounts with reality
Like the real me joining another bank
For the money that is nothing but vanity and vexation of spirit
We know it well
Ego doth serve as our hindrance
May it not be so
O, transcend in reaching out....






canteen

Canteen
12-28-14

Aum Mani Padme Hum
O, what can this mean
Going without the coke and rum
Filling with clear waters my aluminum canteen
Not to boast
It's all for Jesus
Bringing in twenty fifteen
It takes two to know
But O so does it
By which we learn and grow
Out of difficulties grow miracles
As love upon my church family
I hope to but bestow
Awake for nine hours so far
Just laying low
Aum Mani Padme Hum
Joy to the world
The Lord is come....





Opposites Create Desires
12-28-14

Come harmony by cacophony
Noise is as beauty
And to pull it all apart
It is my poetic duty
O, why do I still rhyme like so
When it turns out that I don't really need to know
Come pain by comfort
Come warmth by cold
Come wealth by poverty
Nothing needs be bought or sold
All will know such splendor
In the end of a new beginning
Not to be puffed up
But to testify the things I have seen
By my octogram flashing indigo and green
Today I make the scene....

setback

Setback
12-28-14

My setback and flaw
In my bittersweet slaw
Is that I want more and more
Getting grit in my craw
But not according to the law
Keeping the faith happy even when I'm sore
We've been through so many things together
Neil Young said this by the crescendo
I fade back in taking risks bold to reach out
And even if I lose I win
Happy new year
O, all brothers in times base and contemptible
Next to our eternity
The show must go on
As I write ever since the dawn
My setback is my advantage
Until all of this is past and gone....

bronze

Bronze
12-23-14

Silence is my music of the spheres and I rock on
Don't mean to make myself scarce
But I don't want to talk about it
Cacophony is the euphony of no fears
And I lean to with open arms
And not a clenched fist
If silence isn't golden
Then bronze will suffice
And I throw my pennies around
Happy to pay the price
These moments have been beautiful
Like my shrimp fried rice
Another possibility to join her there
In not needing to roll the dice
Bronze will suffice....





Embark
12-28-14

I embark on new endeavors
I embark on violet to indigo
And pink to blue
In my endeavors of He of total light
Unbearable compassion and infinite power
No one is excluded in one dark hour
I keep forgetting what I was going to say about Him
I see the need to break right in that door
In that today is going to be a prolific one
When Satan wants us to think that we are not in a war
Blue to green through the gloaming
Not to boast
All for Jesus
I embark....





Guitar Dream
12-28-14

Still I dream of taking up my guitar
All for Jesus
I mean not live my life for pride
Boasting is excluded by the law of faith
Not to puff up but to be a blessing
To those with ears to hear
And seven feet tall stalks of maize
The latest sensation and craze
Out of chaos, order
Out of cold, warmth
I love you, Lord
And I will not say
"In anyway I know how"
It's all going to pawn out
Even in the face of doubt
Still I dream of learning the chords
But not for the many gods and many lords
I am what I am even in a broken string.....





ephah

Ephah
9-29-14

It is the same with our sin
The dead man still wants to win
Come one ephah
Come one more hin
I put on another pot of black silk
According to consumers of my own kin
In the lazy water meadow
To live out what we take in
I was once as darkness
And now I am light
Come these particular statements
I ask, O what is going right
As I scribble these words
For the cause of moving onward
Straight through into the night
Come goodness, righteousness and truth
Not according to the contrast of black and white
It is the same
So we are yet to find....




What's Right (part 2)
9-29-14

Come these parenthetical statements of due praise
I go back on the dayjob
In dreams of getting a raise
Where I will do just this
For the rest of my natural life
Of sweet days by his life, burial and resurrection
We find that it pays
Where light exposes the darkness
By just being right here and now
It's about what he has done
Not what you can do of yourself
Nor of the how
As so we get to be this light
In asking, O what is going right
O, what's right....
