Mission

I do not sugar coat my admonition
Everything to my own volition
Suffering intently
Ever so gently

I sift through the notions of grandeur
Everything is against the poor
Imagine yourself in my position
Where every turn is a mission

Lucid

My poetry is like a running commentary
On the matters of love and absolution
Ready to embark on creativity
To bring solutions to the problems

But you do not believe in subjugation to love
What else is there in this evil world
That will bring the world to its knees?
God knows we need humility

Forbid

My love for you grows every day
So much I really want to say
But we have taken a separate path
And the path I took leads to wrath

Kindled the kindness to love
Healed the brokenhearted by the Dove
Washed clean my transgressions
By way of my confessions

But what constitutes as sin
Affects us under our skin
But you normalize under the power of law
The right to sin, I saw

The wrath that comes
To the beat of some drums
Comes because of the lack of love
Amidst those who say they love the Dove

Truth is I miss you and painfully inscribe
On my heart these words to transcribe
My joy over reaching you when I did
No regrets but now I am forbid

Perplexed

What has got me perplexed
Are your affectionate words
Which chilled me to the bone
Never reaching you despite
I tried to convey the truth

Now I am all alone and hanging
On this cross you gave me
Abandoned by my closest
And hemorrhaging a lot
Definitely left for dead

But unbeknownst to me I would live
Expecting termination permanently
But in a blink I lived instead
Still hung on this cross I see
But I live instead for God

Been shot at and hated especially
Choked and poisoned until death even
Sabotaged to flip my car
I should be dead but am not that far
Now they fear by what they have done

Let the light of Justice shine forth
Bringing with it the Judgement of Christ
Bestow upon your humble servant
The light to guide and judge just
As I lay my hands on the earth to heal. Amen.

The resistance to love is amazing
Intentionally squashing the affectionate gaze
Not understanding and fearing intimacy
With the Triune God in all simplicity
I am all that which God wants me to be

Watch the world unfurl its hate
All wrapped up and apparently safe
They will not see until it is too late
That the hate is what keeps them
From loving the God the created them

I am here to tell you and live for you
That love is the way to truth and life
Which is all that and Christ Himself
For He Descended without crown or glory
Stooped down so low before you

Yet you ignored His pleas
Pleas for a return to Him
A reckoning and a beckoning
Now I have been given power from above
And will show how and with this love

Beyond Earth

This heart has a certain inextinguishable fire
It yearns for and it burns that which I love
Not to destroy but to purify what remains
I have seen God face to face and no one believes
I say this not to boast
But to make you realize
That it is me that you seek to abuse and destroy
As I stand here a survivor
I have endured all kinds of abuse and hate
Withstanding even the deepest pain
Truth is I still love you because I see
Beyond what this Earth here provides

Disastrous Wind

All I see is hatred imbued
In everything that opposes good
In your comments and your leadership
Convey that it is right to do bad

They rejoiced with me when I died
So I came back to life in spite of death
Silence fills all of Heaven
And I carry my heart in my hand

I distract myself to oblivion
To focus the love I wish to give
To the one that needs it most
And I love her to folly, see?

But I do not wish to prop me up
And to this end I do not
Yet here my word spreads
Slowly like melting butter

What else can I say that I wish to convey?
Other than good tidings to you and love
May your blessings be thrice holy
And that love prevails in this disastrous wind

Discovery

I write what I write because I am love
Poured out for you and for all
Thought my disguise was good
Living among you as though I was dead

Treated as such I embark on a journey
One of love and self discovery
Teaching one of many the ways of living
Is not without a fair share of loving

My ways are not your ways
Looked down upon by your gaze
I lowered myself intentionally
To prove your affection for me

Something to Reap

Been trying to tell you
About something special
About something remarkable
About something curious
About you and your love
Here I am, I say, I cry, I weep
Here, it is you I seek
Will you even leap?
For it is love you will reap

Disembodied

I heard your voice again today
Disembodied and distant
Wrought with your own hope
Ability to traverse the world in seconds

What you have got you take for granted
Not knowing your true purpose
Flights of fancy are taking over
Idioms are missing their mark

So I stir the pot so to speak
Hoping for some sort of recognition
Not losing anything in transition
To building a life with the loves I love

But the love in my heart is for all
My intimacy with them is my business
Their rejection of me is obvious
Hardened hearts are conglomerating

But amidst this suffering there is always hope
Listing to the Holy Spirit speak, I spoke
What you heard, have you now awoke?
I rest my case with every inkling to show

Cornerstone

Nobody wants to be hated
But the world turns around and hates anyway
Do not hate those who are good by nature
But forgive those who are by nature bad
Love them more than yourself

The innocent get caught in the crossfire
I want no part of your war
Your war has three sides
You against each other
And the innocent by your circumstance

I know what I mean when I say
Tear down everything to the foundations even
But you will not overcome that Cornerstone
That stumbling block to the ways of the world
The Cornerstone will never die and neither will I

Searching

Been searching long and hard
For hearts all torn and scarred
Made a special offering at what was found
But did not make any sound

Immersed in the depth of silence
Breathing in a cloud of incense
I let go of myself completely to the Lord
There was no to and fro with a sword

Upon seeing me in a lowly fashion
He lifted me up into His passion
Guiding my every move I live
Including my tongue to forgive

I am here to put the Fear of the Lord in you
Watching everything and all you do
Letting the Spirit log everything
As I am witness even to you sing

Brokenhearted

Immersed myself in your beat
I reclined because of it in my seat
Felt that your mission of conviction
Towards love was not admonition

So simply you cannot avoid it
Everything is joined to it
Lifting up the brokenhearted
According to what was started

Now I stand firm in my resolve
To bring you to your senses to revolve
All your works around the Lord over gods
All the power still at odds

Have you ever felt truly alone?
Abandoned by every one of your own?
But I know more than you
And this love is what is true

Vulnerable

You can hear my heart pounding
Upon hearing about your confounding
Of the wise at their seats
Not understanding the beats

Oy my heart aches
My whole body shakes
When He lifts the veil
There I become frail

Vulnerable and meek
It is just you I seek
I died last week
Among the least and weak

Living Truth

I am living truth
Of the testimony I give
That of Jesus Christ
And His Second Coming

Fulfilled promises and gifts
The Lord does not dismiss
His graces are from beyond
Enabling even thrones for men

I speak of the nature of God
His tendency to love unpredictably
Giving gifts to the lost
And raising the dead to new life

Sparks from my mouth ignite
A flame of fire that is desire
To be one with God no matter what
Even if it meant sacrifice

Reed

The Lord said He felt my pain
Knowing my suffering not in vain
A kiss on the forehead
Soothing the angst instead

My stubbornness is prominent
The Lord’s love is omnipotent
Granting me graces to succeed
He will not break the bruised reed

Amazed

Time to come together
Under one banner of love
Assemble as God’s people
No matter your religion or race
We will be before God’s Face
On Fire and kindling all kinds of flames
Spreading the love that He seeks
In goodness and in grace

I do His will and my own
Living in harmony
I leave the supernatural to Him
So I can be fully human

Secrets like this galore
Your heart I implore
Love to spread no matter what
Where we go from here
Is all by grace and His power

In this picture
Evil has no place
No foothold
No brace
Instead turns into a footstool
For Christ to put His foot on
But not before she crushes Satan’s head with her heel

Look with your heart to see what is real
Not all things that are real are human
Just remember you will soon see
At the lifting of the holy veil
If you want to be fully amazed

Changed

A Mystery!
We will all not die
But we will all be changed
In a moment
In the twinkling of an eye
At the last trumpet
For the trumpet will sound
And the dead will be raised imperishable
And we will be changed
For this perishable body
Must put on imperishability
And this mortal body
Must put on immortality
