Adorable Baby Crashes Daddy's Concert from coffey on GodTube.



And so I boldy asked of evil, 'what use do I have of thee?'
 then a loud bellowing rolled on past my shoulder behind me
 It was Lazarus who laughed. Like thunder on the ground below.
And with Joy at the site of victory;
for he and the angels who appreared knew I relaized.
 Sin had no grip on me.
 And good which now had it's day
 could dance and run free...

The God Plan

don't have to withhold love
don't have to judge
don't have to separate
don't have to fear my mistakes
don't have to focus on self
in fact I forget sometimes I'm me
all is made new
like the butterflies above
and the one thing I know
God is Love.

And... then we danced

And... then we danced


Knowing Jesus is like
God giving you a gentle kiss.
And we dance.
Like one family of children ...
we dance.

Engraved "No longer pitied"


engraved inside a fluttered path
sold I thought to a bitter past
awaken clearly a focused hope

can a monster like me be forgiven
can Jekyll's castle be a flower
a redeemed kindle authored beautiful

a sailors anchor after winds with calamity stalked
a whistling breeze
white shore following the horrors I fought

confused I am by my own pity
my heart distraught

My love I think of you
we did not even touch
even though made I an attempt
to your souls right I thought I bought

In my mind I weaved our love like a soliloquy
quite clever but destroyed
ripped it was smashed like a dropped lot

a single fragment of loves sweater remained
no warmth
just my megalomaniac thoughts

in case your wondering I love you
but it did not bring redemption
just pain and a relapse
my worship disorder
did
start

but I see now my true problem
its in and out above me
my true offense did start

I think a premise then quarry
I am was first so in him my maker
did I remark this

if love is a river constant
a water living with froth
burlesquing with energy
never ending

than to such beauty I have truly offending
for not with my life leaving my mark

why with worship of course if you're wondering
nothing clever
then all at once
like Isaiah
stop....

nothing so wonderful as being forgiven
so beauty so beauty
soli deo gloria
you end my start....

forgive me for being clever Lord
heal this broken heart...

There is a scene in the show TV show "Nikita" where Nikita is confronted by her own commitments (titled "True Believer"). There is a scene in it that helps me see what a follower of Christ must do. Quite simply a Christian must first accept grace in the deep recesses of their soul. Then obedience will follow but also a life that follows Christ with a covenantal understanding/experience of God's love.

Ravi Zacharias (www.rzim.org) stated "Half goodness is the essence of everything bad" How true is it when we crawl through  our faith and not realize its of no gain to live as a slave. To have two masters and live in two worlds. To live is Christ and to die is gain. We must give Christ our whole lives, put our heads down and run the race until we die; never looking back. It is only then that the world will be changed. It is only then that we will be changed freed men.

Quite simply as a result of dying to self and living for Christ we will be violent lovers. Prodigal love will fill the earth. A love as sacrificial as the Cross. How blameless is such a love that only points to him.


Nikita: Season 3 Ep 3 "True Believer"

Nikita: She asked me if I was willing to die for division. I didn't have an answer.
Alex: Nikita that's because you spent so much time trying to take this place down.
Nikita: exactly and in that time no one thought I could be stopped because I thought I was stronger or faster....... It had nothing to do with that.
Alex: Then What Was it?
Nikita: I was committed. I was more committed than my enemies. I believed. If I lose that....

Hopeless


Hopeless
it hurts
pointless my bitter end
disire confounded by wind

will I ever win?
love constantly lost
will my ship cast wind
probably not
I drown in faulty
slipping in my own underwear

perfectly sloppy
this is my despair
desire

repeatedly wonky
why do I come alongside fear
dissapear
can no one gift me pity
I have enough for the lot

burdening my hurt
loft swings as master
my home made master
singleness unlike stot

wading for a while
looking for mercy
painfully turning towards grace and eternal savings

crawling toward dawns twilight

Meshed


In your face in your face
I write this line
lines
so rhetoric-al your brain
a pill
pain-full your idiot-synchronicity
provincial non intellectual
when glory inside

I miss you

so these I write verbally masturbate
in your face
using my insides as bait
but wait
so senile your mental aptitude
alone my words will date

but I love you

too late Ill not wait
my lines drop like anchors
will I sink
alone in this ocean
in my mind you'll never find me

perhaps you're honest even

but I let go anyway
dead and awake


10.29.2012




Gust

This wind will gust
then I will trust
though this may storm
your word my norm

ignore me Lord
My prideful quakes
with every burst
my mistrust more late

Ill want Ill desire
morning breaking
more needy
more dire

My perfect storm
is where I found you
Lord master
my fire

10.16.2012

Timing


But that's the way life works..
you see you plant a tree
then you wait for the rain
you say yes to marriage
then you persevere through the pain

you are born from a mom and a dad
you all honor and respect
you all fail and accept
then all stay steady and love all beyond regret

you give to those who need
you friend the crippled and lame
you hold your heart in your hand
knowing those ties will and must cause you pain

you walk two feet forward
bare naked arms outstretched
despite being called insane

say ill love you - - all ready
give you all within I can
you say Ill resist my inner pitiful piety
if you spit Ill say I love you child
no regrets
all the same

you see life is a time called remedy
intuition is in this scenario referred to as lame
its dumb and persistent
it just comes back each time arms ready
beat blood pump
each pulse sure of the next ones steady

You see love is what I hide here
beneath the nativity of my line
love will only help you see the grand mind

You see its love that held him steady
and its love that made life's design
its love that makes you unready
its love that will help you understand time
its love my Lord gives us to give to many
its love all love all day all the time

in those moments you'd rather just give in to pity
how much you deserve
how wrong they are
how right your way is divine
its in those times we're dumber than flowers
more ignorant than grass mice or time
you see at the very least they obey logistics
at least they obey their design
life is a constant Gardner
it takes perseverance
steady
time

life on earth didn't start in an instant
perfection didn't even rhyme
it was darkness wading in chaos
it was spoken then man sculpted from Gods mind
how much care should we take for one another
how much should we give of ....time?



Romans 5:8But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

5.20.2012

Resist

Restart.

Pause.

Breath.

It's my last regret

forcing these lines to therapy my demise

I wait for you to involve yourself with these lines

my instagram of beauty Lord you've captured my heart

Ill not give in

nothing will darken my heart

purified time gives in and Im refined

restore.

renew.

give me my new mind

ashes restored

as sun bleeds new day

clearly clearly

new day

new day

organic licorice



so I drown my sorrows in organic black licorice
cuz that's all it deserves

down them all in licorice
cuz that's the extent
ill give my pain of my nerves


Our Lord has made death a gardener
Ill rejoice in his holy name
ill regret not
making a bed for pity
Ill dance all over my shame

poor and rejected
my high position the worlds shame
let them laugh at my broke and limber
strong dirty stride down the street

Ill suck on organic black licorice to down my pity
that's all it deserves
all it'll get
I know who I am
Our lord Jesus Christ
given me my name

Caught in his light



Its a

God shaped hole in ya soul

Its a

God shaped hole in ya soul

you didnt bake it
regardless of what ya do there's no fakin' it

its a big ol God shaped hole in ya soul

so sit for a while
turn off your pda
wifi signal down

get really lonely
and really hear what the light has to say
in the darkness of your soul

really listen what the blindness has already seen
what the proudness shyly mentioned
what mistake correctly pronounced

what.
what.
what.

you've repeatedly said
caught up in lights web
touched the tip of your soul with this
imistakable force

in the waking moments of your slumber
you're outside lookin' in now
if you just stop
if you've already stopped

for one moment like you asked
if your soul was ready

walk on
caught in the light

The Love Oh Lord and will



I woke from the brokeness
hands full of dust
teeth hurt from the struggle
pits sweaty with musk

fighting my innards
my hearts wayward will
relentless this glory
a king made love his kill

looking down on my kingdom of ruin
how Ive made my life ill
emerging from my rubble
you G-d
for thine i will forever live
Christ Lord
your will

Galactica 17 

For unto us a Son is given.
This earth rejoice
It's mirth this day beginning
let everyone take heart and brace
this day a new morn
we've experienced his face

from age to age his baby skin now shed
put trust.
take hope.
celebrate.
that day of salvation
...our galactic bread

Relentless

Today I woke with the sun in my eyes

performing I crashed

was thought to be my demise

but God rushed in to my surprise

said all will end

calm your heart

just wait stop

listen

the demise is demised

and then in the backroom

a rumbling occurred

a broken scratched scruffy melody

erupted the sky

then all at once the child choir spoke

evangelizing my darkness

it would not relent

Christ woke the dungeon

and would not let me rest

he burned my coffin

and told me to go

there are more who've never seen a cake's repentance

lest any attempt to deny

my glory does move oceans

my canopy covers the sky

my love is amazing

then grace made fireworks fill my belly like pie

#occupywallstreet

If you're working class you were born with a "gun" in your hand.

fighting an invisible man.

with a taste in your mouth you can't stand

your life is a line in the sand

economics are controlled by a few man

you shoot and fire

while your feet are in sinking sand

face red

fist clenched

you cry out

what does it mean...

to be human?

and why am I struggling

for rights

when I have two legs upon which to stand?

Twilight


I was left in the dark
black as night

alone in the pitch
tone like midnight

left in this bigness
empty and silent
vacant Im wearied

then incidentally
a barely twinkled weary
star performed
and gave me some light
limping

all at once they all of them
every star singing
this vacancy whispered
Im winning

this darkness is much less
than I percieved
at the mercy of this twilight army

but wait they said
wait for the mercy of our father
for we are but twilight
a shadow of his light

when he shines
the tears will fall from your eyes

and I turned my eyes
so blinding it did shine

the sun in my eyes
light

so help me God
light took my mind

......and it did shine....

Cosmic Love

If the road to destruction is wide
keep me to your narrow path oh Lord

use me to usher the few
into the dirt of your kingdom

for I'd rather not witness the walking dead
zombies delight in misery

a fleeting hope in vanity
chasing the wind with perfect glee

holding nothing with passionate fire
celebrating a rotting mire

bollocks ingesting and eating thier mind
this lot will not be born again inside


So keep me my lord lost in your cosmic arms
this world is rotating dead
we all need perfect love

7.25.2011





A Loss win



Thank you Lord
for you've been
an eye opener
letting me view my sin
letting me know
what an ass I've been
for consuming my wishes
and letting love win

for showing me a shape
as hard as the wind
for faith it seems
waters my soul like the caribean
I boast in the cross alone

for you my Lord

loss is win

Nothing, either great or small—
Nothing, sinner, no;
Jesus died and paid it all,
Long, long ago.

Refrain

“It is finished!” yes, indeed,
Finished, ev’ry jot;
Sinner, this is all you need,
Tell me, is it not?

Refrain

When He, from His lofty throne,
Stooped to do and die,
Ev’rything was fully done;
Hearken to His cry!

Refrain

Weary, working, burdened one,
Wherefore toil you so?
Cease your doing; all was done
Long, long ago.

Refrain

Till to Jesus’ work you cling
By a simple faith,
“Doing” is a deadly thing—
“Doing” ends in death.

Refrain

Cast your deadly “doing” down—
Down at Jesus’ feet;
Stand in Him, in Him alone,
Gloriously complete.

Refrain

Let go my love
and you will see from me
all the things I promised thee


when all the world has turnt to black shrinking spire
come
make the darkness a liar

Thought Raid

No matter what thought
doth come to me

the strange and ill
or what fall oversteps me

there is one thing I know
and will always posses me

his grace it does
and is now me

I will look upon it as a stranger
the wackness of my mind
the green and odd color
which always arrives in due time

I'll send it to the corner
accepting my Jacob's wall
are you ready to be you
says my savior
come one two and all

together we all since
one enormous song

because of my hero
pause
cry
joy

my Lord ... such a dance...

Glory

Dusty road
marching on
a soldiers burden
is to continue on

wreckless is my mind
feet be worn
still I go
singing a soldiers song

it isnt pretty
on key tune or point
it isnt always exact


if given flight
it couldnt sit perfectly on a perch


my soldiers song
my soldiers song
all it does

is march continually on

Lovers cosmic moon..

(listen to the music while reading :))


my lover said to me
today you don't love me
but when you do
ill trade you those two smooth rocks for the moon

sure I said for I'll have you both
cake I will cherish, have it, then eat it too

then my lover said
this cannot be
our boat will sink
cake plus us
in my mind this I cannot think

but I will tarry here
every day God sends
I'll sit right here
waiting for those two round stones
all for me

for my wages are the moon
all for you it seems


so the lover said to my soul
but I could not hear
so my lover waited
and waited
and waited


we both grew old
grey and weary

then one day
I could see the moon
big and bright
so huge
overwhelming me
perplexed I said
how on earth could my lover promise this to me?


for two round stones?
madness describes this thomas crown affair
for 7 sleepless nights did I wrestle
sleeping awake
thinking of my lover

then one dawn right beore the sun rose
my lover did I meet
my weary heart
collapsing at my lovers feet

and we melted and kissed
floating far away
leaving my stones by the river
you wouldn't believe how quickly
they floated away...


####


I love you Jesus. Thank you so much...





Mere Words





The only words that matter to me
are the consonants and vowels my heavenly father spoke to me.

from the dust I move
dance myself awake

his aroma I smell
its his love I take

put it in my minds repository
keeping it safe

no more satisfaction for my enemies
no pity no fate

I stride down that chiminey alter
this ended

all made right
bought
purchased
proud owner of this estate
Break thy schemes of earthly joy

John Newton. Olney Hymns (1799), Book III, 36.




I asked the Lord that I might grow
In faith, and love, and every grace;
Might more of his salvation know,
And seek, more earnestly, his face.

’Twas he who taught me thus to pray,
And he, I trust, has answered prayer!
But it has been in such a way,
As almost drove me to despair.

I hoped that in some favored hour,
At once he’d answer my request;
And by his love’s constraining pow’r,
Subdue my sins, and give me rest.

Instead of this, he made me feel
The hidden evils of my heart;
And let the angry pow’rs of hell
Assault my soul in every part.

Yea more, with his own hand he seemed
Intent to aggravate my woe;
Crossed all the fair designs I schemed,
Blasted my gourds, and laid me low.

Lord, why is this, I trembling cried,
Wilt thou pursue thy worm to death?
“’Tis in this way, the Lord replied,
I answer prayer for grace and faith.

These inward trials I employ,
From self, and pride, to set thee free;
And break thy schemes of earthly joy,
That thou may’st find thy all in me.”

Fuego

Fuego hot perhaps fire
today is alive
more lively than the shire

Ill dance and laugh
pop and sing
this is what the entire state
calls rejoicing

at the county fair we all come
ride in a fairy powered balloon
pixie dust in our hair

dont let it end
happy
delightful
complete
merciful
free










5.31.2011



Beat

lifted up bouncing
levitate me
to the respectability of a sky

emotion enveloping
motion just ate me

I
feel
alright

being is for seeing
let my hand release this mourn

dance expression
but this is more

Ill be ok
Ill sing
walking walking

further away
its all around
like tinker bells fairy dust

I want more
fueling my gut

Im alright
always
ok

Dead skin



callously smooth
this runs all the way through
rottenly warm I grab a spoon

rubbing it all over like calimine lotion
I willll sleep awake
I will run in place

I will request pie in my face
my heart is not ready
I do not want to soar

Ill eat the salty bacon
nourishment no more

after Im done running
it will be dust to drink
no water for me

Ill bodybuild with pencil weights
gain muscle by lying on the floor

Im dead weight
with stamina like the golden gate

I cheated on that puzzle
keywords make me not poor

This is how my heart feels
not caring that it needs you
like warmth from the sun

so wake me Lord
resuscitate the perfectly late
don't leave me alone with me my date
rescue this lopsided boat

callous hangnail and unfortunate dead skin

5.28.2011



Fortnight

Parted lips a waking cry
a valley of death my hearts desire

I look inward an oasis I see
a isle of distraction
a dark cloud obstructing thee

I wait in the darkness
forgetting the light
no pain or misery
bliss confused by delight
awkward is my unveled misery

stumbling over light

proceeding down the pew seats
drunkard man blind and new


I make my way past the vestibule
stiff as oak with speech like mice
truth a welcome hangover
lasting longer than two times a fortnight


slowly gaining my stillness
going nowhere
just light
blessed
blessed
blessed....
light.

5.26.2011



(This is a hymn I wrote)



Jesus our mast of mercy



Blessed risen you bring me to your height
Seated triumphant with septor crown on my heart

Oh victorious champion brimming with delight
You bring children gladness
Your kingdom aressts all this worlds night

In your presence my knees fail to provide tension
I lay prostrate a servants delight

O maker of the universe please give me sight
hold me forever like a son
never again alone your beauty is warm light.

Grace is what I was given
making your wrath a Gardner
forgiveness abounds like day follows night

5.21.2011


And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:

"Give me a light, that I may tread safely into the unknown!"

And he replied:

"Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God.

That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way."

This poem was quoted by King George 6th

Christmas 1939

5.20.2011






I want to be
far away from me

a chimney top
candy mountain top

Inside of me
its not a possibility

for Im the reason
for my own calamity

falsetto ring

I won't win

I'm a broken man

my pride in hand


I wish I could be

on that rainbow

walking to someplace else

away..
away from here


But perhaps
Ill hold out my hand
grab a rope balloon ride hope

and go over the treetops
cliffs trains and local trucker stops

outlasting a bitter moment
Impossible bends.... don't it?

5.19.2011




I have decided to follow


at this point
this juncture in a fold of time

Id like to pause
with an architectured rhyme
something to invest
in a crevice of your mind

a word of endurement
a plea from my mind


a heartfelt cry
a savior will answer me
one who endured the loss
and flung himself onto eternity


so I a soldier on
a combatant in arms
duely serve his army
smoking gun and sore arms

I salute and serve with boldness
smoke and blood in my eye
Ill endure patiently and march from here
for a soldier embraces his calm

no turning back
no going home
Ill embrace my pity
wait for the great beyond

One day Ill take that lilly covered fairy.......
my window folded flag in arms

5.18.2011




Love respect you

It doesnt matter
who you are
I love you
I respect you

dont even matter
how you talk
Ill still hug you

when were both old and dusty
Or if our friendship expires
Ill recollect you
remembering all our good times
the times we sat and drank wine

Im pressed to say
you're wierdness is my sunny day
the oddness of us
never one way

I enjoy you still
my opposing thought
a verbal rush

whatever you are
whoever you are
I love you
I respect you

I love you..
I respect you...

love respect you...



Freaks

the one cast out
feared and on whom
normals cast doubt

I call you my freaks
there is no need to be discreet
the one who were maid lain

those laughed at
scorned
shamed

there is a coolness
to who you are
dont run
be shamed
pull your hair

for the lame will be a remnant
a sripe of pride
will bond us clear

5.16.2011



Metal

chugga chugga
whirl whirl
head spin down
perhaps a curl

melodic chords
reign like fire

spit cool tones
scream beautiful mire

this unholy chorus
it burns in my soul

God bless rock and roll
this wretched beautiful son

5.05.2011







Frist rule of flying


sky sky
poderosa in the sky

I see moon beams
I see lakes
it's a rodeo sized cosmological feast
for each eye

In it I see you
a different expression each time

I look up and look up
and get some cloud in my eye

I pray
that this time tomorrow
the grey turns a silver line

Then Ill blast off into tomorrow
no more red dawn in my eye

Dark Knight


When you wake up
look at him

before you go to bed
look at him

when your at work
look at him

when youre about to faint
when all hope looks dim...

look at him

when you fail
look at him

when youve purposefully done wrong
look at him

when you couldve done better
look at him

when you cant forgive
look at him

when you have lost your ability to trust
look at him

when you have no options and you are at the end of your rope
guess what?

look at him

when you cant love anymore
gaze at him

when you need
look at him

there are many roads in life
we all fall down
we all fail
we all need a friend
we alll need a savior

so I say to you
look at him with all your heart

and let your eyes say Jesus Christ...


I'm not a Hero




although hope seems failed
retart and taken flight

combating your inner legion
darkness enveloping like night

I say to you dont just parry
stubbornly hold on
cling even with all your might

you see it's hope that must be defeated
its the sliver that makes up an abundance of light

they it circumstance cannot defeat it
no matter how hobbit sized the flickr
no matter the winds speed of flight

so i boldly say to you dont weary
dont let that take out your light

cling to it as if it's your only purpose
for darkness cannot defeat light

ζῆν Χριστὸς καὶ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν κέρδος.
zēn christos kai apothanein kerdos


I look down at my hands
these are not my own

I continue to try to scope with my weak eyes
these are not my eyes

I rise and my bones ache aches joints and I shake
these are not mine I said these are not mine

I wake up in the morning and feel the sunlight on my face
the beating my heart does as it feels love approach like invisible mist

there it says there he holds our destiny there
almost ejecting itself from my body my heart pounds

hold fast I say and can hardly contain
for what can I do to hold back such a strong longing
I feared my death was appraoching

faster my heart did beat as the sun did shine
mine it said mine mine all mine
the glory and destruction of this temple

break me down and build me up it babbled

for what could I do but long for it too
if my heart did take me then like the wind
I too would blew

but I did not go this day
for one thing alone made me stay
my heart decided to delay
and this one thing did it say:

to live Christ and to die gain

I guess it was a toss up
to die another day

From Russia with Love

me and my fiance. She still makes my heart beat faster.





What and she in like

like water
in the dry parts of my soul
like sweetness
insert all goodness
inside and out soft and perfect
chewy yet refined
never demanding
patient loving and kind
a triple threat
so easy ill never have to
word play
Ill just say what she is
then rewind and stare
like a silent still moment
in the wind
nothing but truth between us
no lies
what we see is what you get
felt it
flawed yet flawless
persistent yet not wreckless
everything yet still filling it
beginning yet beginning
this is the start of bliss
my love for her
..countless.

Here is the testimony - Please listen to this first - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zo6Nu5W256M
Here is the song - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJuxESbF_GA




when you look at me
is that all you see
a quiet still figure
that cant keep you company

when you look for me
what do you see
did you notice
my arms
reaching and
watching thee
I truly
truly do
love thee

Headnoise - Peace lyrics
(These are lyrics to the song "peace" by Headnoise)


glory to God in the highest
and on earth good will toward men
the angel shouted the prince of peace is here
the prophets words are fulfilled
the messiah has come
the spirit of the sovereign lord is with us
preaching good news to the poor
binding up the broken hearted
proclaiming freedom to the captives and
release from darkness the prisoners
2000 years later firebombs and teargas in ancient Bethlehem
the world in distress by the bad blood of ethnic hate and war
millions are plagued by unprecedented suffering and despair
nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom
there will be famine and earthquakes in various places
all this is the beginning of birth pains
America a society of chaos
feelings of tension in our streets hostile confrontations
bigger crowds lashing out in protest on one issue after another
our generation - - - hellish divorce court turning friends into enemies
ripping families apart deeper they run
adult and children talk about dark years of family abuse and hatred
distraught mother kills her baby
the villain boyfriend is blamed
the machine of nihilism has destroyed the idea
that there is truth leaving the youth disillusioned and angry
this is the backdrop of the stage of a million wrongful things on earth
a world of the blind leading the blind in the dark
Christ warned us of the coming wars and the rumors of war
in conflict still he promises peace for all who believe in him
listen closely "peace I leave with you. my peace I give you not as the world gives do I give you.
do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid"
the world in all its efforts cannot give lasting peace to you
it only has lies and pain and germane history to heed
lonely and cold each year adding to the sorrow in our lives we reach for anything but God
to fill our emptiness
still denying ourselves that we can cope with real LOVE JOY AND PEACE
Jesus Christ comes with rest for our weary soul if only we trust in him
anything else we try is futile and empty
listen closely "peace I leave with you my peace I give you not as the world gives do I give.
do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid"
remember war and hate is rooted in the human heart
for years we have tried to obtain but still we fight and covet
like an unplugged chord dangling in the abyss
our lifeline to god
our soul hangs lifelessly severed and separated by our pride and unwillingness
to believe we can be loved, forgiven, and held by God himself
the nations will collide around you your world may crash
but if you trust and believe in Jesus Christ to save you
then you will have true peace in your soul
as for you you were dead in your transgressions and sins
in which you used to live when you followed the ways of the world
but because of his great love for us God who is rich in mercy
made us alive with Christ
It is by grace you have been saved



10.14.2010

What. That. If.


What. that. If?

If god is love
what are we getting away with when we hate?

If Jesus is charity
then what money have we saved when we dont help
that beggar on the street

If God is Justice
then how safe are we when we don't speak in place the oppressed
not caring for those who dont have enough to eat

If Jesus is love
If Jesus is love...

If God is our father
then what great life have you gained by ignoring or leaving your kids?

If the good Lord is hope
then what could possibly be encouraging about one more Gossip like word?

If Jesus is community
then why leave out the weakest among you because he cant afford or is in need?

If Jesus is wealth
then is not living sacrificially gain?

We move away when we think we're moving toward
we push away and walk comfortably on a bed of thorns

we make Christ in our own image
all the while the cross is scorned..

Yurievnachnay


Silence
is all I hear
fine
forces will still bear
mistakes I've made
will dig me a grave
its your soul I see
want to bath in it
make no mistake

not love grandeur
ill do anything
to make us right

I'll fight dragons
or lasso the night

its your smile I covet
the curly grin of your hair

I never want anything but
love in your stare

I long to feel
your hot breath on my lash
perfect eyes and lips
back right leg and face

when my heart pumps blood
into your ventricle its us I can taste
I know you're mine

right now I feel your hands chilling down my spine
you're a goosebump

doctor says I dont have much time
for these won't just sit and wait
they will infect your mind
making it give up the race

doc says:
make peace with your
dear and fluffy lord
because this will take life's taste
say goodbye cruel world
call mom and tell her to prepare the wake
for this ol' gal
won't settle for anything but a
coffin
tea biscuits
and your head on a plate
its the bump o' death
and the two of you aren't at a stalemate
you'll lose son
and your life she'll take

so now I know
without
not an option
on one knee

for YOUR mind
heart
and life I take

with
i'll NEVER settle for without
complete set with rib to boot
together with you

what a grand design we make.

6.29.2010

lover?

So I'm wondering
wondering and
wondering about you
Do you laugh cry spit bark or even care
about anything I do
I love
but is that something you even know how to do?
you I love you.

care I wonder
do I why do I care about you
so much to give up
why do this or even go through

through with it do it complete
the thing we set out to do

or maybe it was just me
maybe perhaps it was all a ship of my making
and you the apathetic passenger
on a free ride or so you think
and when your small brain awakes
kerplunk.
we sink.

flight

no where
I'll no longer stay here
drink a flask of air

im outta here
up up
up in the air

flight im taking
tired of my farina spinkled with despair

this poppy seed bagel
morning air
sunshine
and the good Lord's air I trust

everyday
with pushups a must
everyday
with laughter
hold the fuss

I ride I sail
I king I try
I motion I rock
I steer with rudder

I love I believe
I try despite pain

the cure aaron said
it's in that pain

you blues traveler
you midnight red-eye
packer

take flight
no more fear for you

purposeful pirate

...yo ho me hearty

I will be remade
on the day named again

I'll survive
come tommorow
..if that day comes
ill get up

all in vain?

if I accept it not
hold it not?

no I say he waits
divine romance

he waits for his bride
his bride waits for him

back and forth my mind
he sees
he cares
he loves
i'm loved

but Im so disfunctional
not doing what I ought.
you dont understand what I dont do
what I continue to not due
how could you love me?

I do.

obsession

why is all i want to know

wont you
let
me
be free

im not going with you
im not condemned

damn. these. chains.

you wont destroy me

I wont give in to thee

i can sing
feel
dance
sing
breath
love
rock
absorb
create
laugh
fly

this one finger can shoot lighting
though your dirty eye

i'll chop off the hand of my acuser

I WILL live free
I WILL overcome

I WONT back down
I WILL express

This dark cloud IS a passing thing
four wall blackmail
meet my two point smile
a cross with nails

four wall blackmail
meet my two point smile
a cross with nails
Samson

so I look into you
your eye body and soul

are lovely

filling me like delilah did samson

wrong apparently is the new good

judgers pass by
condemn

but never help

I understand the gangs now
pornstars with tattoed crosses

were all waiting for Jesus first disciples

telling us were free
good Samaritans who truly care
friends
who will be a community with us
exercise the demons for us
talk everyday with us

I'm no different
still haven't found what I'm looking for

like Samson maybe I'll bring it all down in one last act of redemption
God don't cut me down
don't give me a malediction
I swear I'm not a contradiction
there's just a pool of spit I'm choking in.

friendless
pointless
writing a poem because this world is heartless
a friend..

a friend instead

that's all i really wanted

alone alone

a city called alone

pain

frown

all alone

to touch and hug

a friend

but instead I clasp alone

some addiction

a bit of vice

worship

all alone

lonely

alone

in a careless world

alone.

and think of thee

I wish I might
that you were free

the bond of man
that distantly clings o thee

warped obsession
that's in me

id wed
id love
i hope
in a hallow you plus me

long lengthy medows
no long states of seperation
calmness
gazing
my eyes not parting from thee

my hope my hope
my distant shallow hope
why do men cling
to warped frustration
that keeps them roped

no sacrifice
Currently Watching: http://vimeo.com/2768429

I asked Jesus how much I had to give

he simply replied more

I asked Jesus how much more for him I had to live

he simply replied
more


I asked Jesus how far I had to go

he simply replied
more

I asked Jesus how much I had to forgive
he simply replied
more

I asked Jesus how can I possibly to the ungrateful give

he told me simply
why not more?

for all at once our father did give
for all at Calvary he did give
our life a response
to what he did

for on that cross he did
not see
all wrong created being
did to he
our friend our father
now we can call thee
no enemy
no foe
pardoned

because he extended a hand
not asking why
just giving to you and me.

walk me not and talk is pretty

Currently Listening to - http://www.amazon.com/Theme-For-The-Elthenbury-Massacre/dp/B001CQFYZM


I
eat
the pretty
but reminded of how I'm ugly
I eat the pretty but
yet

Im so ugly

I love
the pretty

but ugly

I enjoy the beauty
is it becuase I'm muddy

I dine a walk and love to gander
oh how the lines
pregression and waltzing lines

fill my soul
release the toxins
that bind

Lord save me
from my own mind

laughable petty
but it tears at me
eating like these lines

in the dungeon this pantheon
form the corridors of my mind

are all this shallow
alone am I?
regretfully this small miniscule road is mine

all the world and all I own
are contained in it's wind

to and fro
round it goes
the path
it takes
all
in me

the path
it rolls
going
until it consumes
all of me

not strong
not lovely
not awesome am I

just walking
sometimes weary

but am I to walk alone
he contests I'm not
and that he walks with me

and this
is all I know
humbly these feet growl amen.

peace twas it


and so once again
inside
the one thing that I fought
crept in

but fought I did
nevertheless

indside I died

the wench I said I'd leave alone
performed a feat and made me cry

dry tears nonetheless
performing a feat few wanted or cared

to try

but broke now is my prized pony

she did it
she did it

all with no effort

as mangled as her mind she did it
all to easy she did it

so I drag my feet long the dirty road called delta

sittin' on a rock stargazing
just fighting my evils

trying not to let satan in

sittin' on a rock star gazin

tryin' not to let the demons in..

Will never end.

One day church.
we will meet over there
then.

In a banquet a feast
fit for kings
and honored guests

This. This.
Will never end.


I'm telling you all
we will at once at times edge
be there over where
when time itself ends

a grand reunion
dancing singing
with all our closest friends.

Where mirth unfettered
and jubilee never ends

come one and all to Zion
this story came not from men
come lose yourself in the rapturous poetry

because
This. This.
will never end.

All surrounded by blinding lights
all centered like a flock
our shepard and a grand chorus of amen's
Shalom be our bread

the only name that can give life to our feet of misery
heaven
a name worthy to wipe away all life's pain

fruitless

sad to say
this organic thing
living in me today

a forbidden desire
a faulty sink

eyes that glow
hair a pretty shade
breasts that gleam
smile deceitful

my heart a shade mean
mean
mean
mean


like Samson I shaved my head
bald and clean
unfortunate my gratitude
polka dot stockings
prancing around
making a scene


I'm weakened by the now
hearing with my eyeballs
feeling my way to the seen

now is my port destiny
eventual is to far to walk
tomorrow is what is truthfully mean

my hearts lifestyle petty
it's a house straw brick sturdy

glass houses full of rocks can't be seen

Caterpillar Arm

caterpillar caterpillar
turned into a fly
caterpillar caterpillar
grew an arm
reached out and touched sky


you see I shot the mailman
the messenger offended my eye

the letter was delivered a year too early
so I turned him into a dirt pie

for all my expectations
for all my work is a fulfilled pity

this world works without my satisfaction
there appears to be a greater I and again a greater eye


sitting humbly with variety
still silent and relaying to the listener a defeated sigh

pride my un-maker
my undoing
attempting to run away with my mind

so no longer do I pretend I'm dressed in fine linen
throwing this here arm up

God
I give up
its your show now

Look again

there is something pretty there
something not so dirty about the air

some clean in that look
perhaps its not so infested
give it a chance
look
and again look


its me
I am that

one you turn away from
a dirty window
soiled with the black

deep inside
there something worthwhile

but go a bit farther
outcast a smile

I'm on the other side of willow creek
underneath your roasting chimney
in fact

I'm your dirty window needing cleaning
but still on me living water kisses in drops

I need words

my words hit the wind
and told me

it would soon be bright against the day

my hope hit the wind
astounded at this thing

carrying it

taking it away


my words and hope flighty with wonder
astounded
can there be anything better said they
is there greater?
are we really being swept away?

my reality hit the wind
but this is where I now leave you

this is where I get carried away
my doubt all mangled like confetti

there is a greater
it's real
I'm going away...

(love)the overused word that doesn't mean the word

love keeps you steady
it tests you
make certain it will test you

how silly of you
if it is you
to try and date love

make a temporary statement and call it love

for it requires all of you

all ten toes
each of your ten fingers
one nose
both eyes
even that brain inside your skull

no fleeting passion
no flighty moodswing
away passing emotion
forsake passing circumstance

don't even speak it's name in vein
for love is sacred
holy
look up its above


it takes more than you
it takes all of you
it requires more than you can give of you

death alas be it's alias
"do" dear fellow be it's armor bearer
"everything" be it's closest brother
and "long suffering" it's mother

to know love is to be loved
and to love is to never ever let go
even when met with eternity

dark encamped around thee
nothing left to cling to
hand in the hand of love's liberty
smiling in the face of catastrophy

with an air of certainty
you say
this I do all and I do mean ALL

for

you
blue district



soli deo gloria


shine shine
round
perfect
light

yea ill go ahead and say it
divine

this I can not deny
this feeling

its not mine
not it
not might

and oh
oh
oh
it feels right

looking above
and outside me

it feels right
this small
unearthly
blue light

Four Wall Blackmail


Freedom is screaming in the night:

walls walls
damn these four walls

they curse me they curse me
all night I've been on my knees

they whisper they screech
they howl my secrets in the night

did the trees hear?
did they eavesdropping owl's take flight?

but not more
no more blackmail in sight

he took the sledgehammer
smashed the lying walls
crumbling them all

none left
none with might

a bitter morning cascading though the asbestos bight
crumbled my horror
new day
end night


Author's Note 1 Corinthians 4:16
16 Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

Dedicated to every single male who struggles or has struggled with pornography. Jesus loves you and is that thing you search for on your screen. He created you to worship him. Imagine all the ecstasy you feel surpassed by freedom in him. That is salvation.

single

so said I with certainty

a love has past

none now with me

fond am I of what I wish to be

lovingly cradling a ghost close to me

for you my love I thread silk along the sea

an ocean I'd cry not if again I lost thee

far better for me
to love
then lose

then never to press close to thee
kiss
and hold
to speak words of poetry

to miss
to hope
to cherish
to love
to dream
to quarrel
then reconcile

to have another
together

so then God says

"ok now it's going to rain
and billow and ruff and the sun I will snuff
the darkness will timber and fall like flakes
the roar of no sunshine will fall on your face

so hush child just hush child
there is no hand but mine to take"

for a season this persisted
for heavy a heart it did make

my salvation my trusting nature
my fathers hand I must take

and he said
"so trust child just trust child
this won't last forever
this will appreciate the laughter
smiles will reign down on your face
for I made the dark as well as happy bright laughter
embrace me
embrace me
my joy is a shattering earth that quakes"

"so hush now and hear all promise luster
my joy is an earth that quakes"

A Cloudy Brooklyn Street

Now Playing: Enya - Now we are free



lovely,awful, and pretty

I contest that for far too many
spring is no longer spring

I contest that for far to many
a flower does not sing

that air no longer nourishes
that laughter is not angelic

and children a bothersome thing

I contest for far to many the day holds no occasion
for the discovery of new things

no bright thankfulness of sunshine
no promise
no viewing of the sun complimenting perfectly
the air touching ever so lightly
the color of the birds wings

no redemption of former misery
no talk or song or lovely word can make love win

rain is a constant bother
not a miracle without which
beauty would not spring

you see dark must turn to morning
and to know pity is to be aware
there is another side of even the darkest sin

two sides to every quarrel
four seasons
fahrenheit to every celsius
and a loss for a win

pain for a cross in victory
hope it seems
is not what we've thought to have seen...

today I said goodbye to thee

a leaf gone for now off the family tree

so long farewell
no more
c'est la vie

another leaf gone for now
off the family tree

brief was the fall
and close was the breeze
on one swift morning
awakening me

another leaf gone but one day
there will be a new tree

so long
fare well
carved in love on the trunk
in due time
we will all see

for grace I live

how blessed are are you
to not sense what i sense
not feel as I feel
that this darkness for you is not real

how blessed you be
to stand where you stand
for God to uphold you
with perseverance's stance

how legendary it is
to have the eyes of a hawk
giving no unsound thing a fair trial
and with humility squawk

for this I'm often undone
so for heroes I sing
and one day I wait for a lone chariot
that one day low
very low it might swing

High Street, So High.


Intent before content

the truth for you
my hope for you

the truth for you
is my hope for you


no more servitude to a waterloo
giving yourself to what's untrue

my better years I would give to you
to give pause to the growth in you
the monstrous child you cling to

it's taking you
it's taking you
draining the better mind
using your eye with seeing and not through


look my friend
outside of you
fear not fear not the dirt
truth will indeed bury you

cast side the lies
let freedom ring true

outside my dove
out not in will carry you through


Author's Note:
what is truth?

sky birds



true blue sky

In an hour of eruption
I asked God why
why I said master

why can some not see the sky
the adornment
the beauty

the division of the hours
when some men toil
some play
all composing twenty four
all things under which time fly

do they not perceive the body
the motion of the heavenly body
upon which the sun imprints it's thigh?

the complexity of the ray and all it empties
the nourishment it provides to the eye

do they not see
do they not perceive this plenty?
do they truly never want the why?

my father calmed my inquiry
with a sentence he unraveled
all like a calm sigh
he said to me
the reason they know not is because the ask not
the reason my son is: they never look up at true blue sky


Author's Note: The reason the unbelieving man has never found the smallest molecule is this: The smallest molecule is composed of faith. Jesus Christ is the meaning of life itself. He. Lives. (John 14:19)

Hope †




simply heaven

arising to meet the new sun

a look at my own heart

to my shock and awe

the Lord God did light more than a spark

to my certainty

directly in my ear he sought

to impart a new begining

and give me a new start

"you see my son hell is a reality

but it's not what I want

to avoid the travail and go to heaven

all you must do.

is simply not listen to your own heart"


Authors Note - C.S. Lewis once said " ultimately there are only two types of people in the world. One will look to the Lord and say, "Thy will be done" and the other the Lord will look to and say "Thy will be done."

waiting for my boom boom crash
thunderous pow

I'm a trapped pitter pat
waiting for my enthrall

I'm just a wee pitter pat
in a world

sounding it's useless whirl


Authors Note: "Intense is the agony--
When the ear begins to hear, and the eye begins to see;
When the pulse begins to throb, the brain to think again;
The soul to feels it's flesh, and the flesh feels it's chains."

lovers made of mud

the heart of me
the heart of me

the devil did sigh
for he thought my end nigh

this heart in me
this heart in me

poison did wait
to watch this world part from me
but wait was for naught
for still two legs I stand heartily

new heart given me
new heart given me

for an ancient king
fought insurmountable odds to set me free
bigger than pride
rushing towards the plee

you pardoned me
you pardoned me

what my new king
doth I owe thee
for debt to pay
these chains of me now broken free

no longer to set foot in mud
no war of prisoner I be

for set in blood
this conquest of love
all for lovers made of mud

Ecclesiastes

He reached for the top
but there was nothing there

no pandora's box
no rocky peak

no gasping for air
no mountainous view
no pot of gold
nor silver lake to view

no rush of might
no warn of defeat

just empty grey dust
just him
looking down at his tired feet

what instigated this fool
what sparked his feat

why try to be the measure of all things
why leap a tall building
what would posses him
what illed him like unsalted meat


for all his toil
at journey's end
he stood with waking eye
searching for loss of sleep

no marching bands
nor trumpeteers

no quiet young girls to calm his jeers
no cash prize could dry his tears
no one here but him all ears

wondering what had let him steer

for all his quest led him here
vanity he exclaimed
as he stood
no chair

Now playing: Lord of the Rings:TTT
- Helm's Deep



Warm it felt


bereft of reason
he woke the dark
his belly quaking
all is lost

maddened by iniquity
squeezed with dispair
he said
"is there no one to save me?"
"does a soul even care?"

but then a light parted darkness
a hand bit the cold air
he felt the warmth of a stranger
indeed quite nicely
a one did care
Bathroom

waiting for.
the bathroom.

hope my pants.
resist my fears.

Goodnight Tunnel

Goodnight my love
good night and good flight

it seems this tunnel I've always noticed
has taken no height

the crevices and longitude

are not the same not quite

the shadows seem more elegant
the stench of refuse left here
all are a delight

I recall a memory
but none seem to fit quite right

so it would appear reality
dimly lit
is now a beacon of light

and this old tunnel

doth now see good light


so I say this now gladly

good night tired memory
good night
good night
and
good night

Life is in 3D



sun light party


I looked at the sky
filed with light
and I watched the birds dance

kissing sunbeams
partnering with each other
flapping
laughing
and all this with no pants


I looked to the sky
staring at the gay seagulls
glaring with amazement
observing their freedom

as they danced in the sun's light
smiling happily
hugging piety

and all this
all this
all this
with no pants

prettier is he

the only point that matters
to me
and to you

is this

the fact that God stopped me
he redeemed the moment with every moment

prior

leading to

and present touch


the darkness disguised as light
turned ugly
as he whispered
I'm fond of you
gracefully I love you

and I'm pretty
pretty
oh so so
pretty

I'm prettier
prettier
pretty

then all at once my heart began to fluster
erupt
and explode like the crimson sundown
I witnessed this day

I'm in love you unperceptive ninny
I've fallen for one more beautiful
quicker than a sad eye can turn away

and all he said is
I'm prettier
prettier
pretty

God it seems
takes my breath away


Authors Note
- I love you Jesus. Thank you. With every breath and wake.

Dad hood. Safely home.



tiny image

im a tiny child
screaming into a television screen

a small child
comprehending all that is seen

Im a tiny child
begging for a world to see
there is a world outside the tele
so much more that you can see

put aside your glowing living rooms
smash your glassy screen
no longer give listen to commercials
for wasted are your dreamy visions
unexplored are heavens means


there is a world beyond your generated imagery
there is one greater beyond your tv screen
for your god will swallow your forgotten memory
a boob tube is all "this world" sees

for my re-birthday is a new impossibility
my father now grafting me in his tree


for him I gave toss to my tele
to look at dad's arms hold someone like me

Merry Christmas!!



The working people of Bethlehem

I wonder what Bethlehem and the world
were doing that day
when God stepped down from heaven
and in a manger lay

before they knew
they would be pardoned of all sin
before they knew
a babe called Jesus
would make them all new again

was the candlemaker crying
left hopeless in despair
was the woodcutter fretting
life in shambles contemplating fear

my mind wonders if the peasant girl
felt useless
in a world that gives her no more worth
than a bearded lady at the fair

did the working man lie in agony
before the beatitudes were ever sung
or maybe the man in prison
had a ray of hope before he was hung

you see God stepped down to Bethlehem
to give them hope that day
in a manger a babe lie wrapped in linen
and all were given hope
yesterday tommorow and today


Author's Note: Merry Christmas
