CONSIDERING CONCEPTION

Go ahead and 
Flare up, scare up, even try to tare up
The seed in the ground
But soon you'll see
The sprout, wondering about, even a horrible draught
To show it's been found
.....in LOVE

Many hit against
A wall, trying to appall,the idea of The Fall
In the horrid flesh
But the spirit
Has produced, a tool that's loosed, and enduced
Unproductive labor to rest
...in Peace

Mind systems of fear
Can still inject, try to infect, move to reject the effect
Of the connection
But intimacy
Has stripped, gripped and tipped the soul
To yield its erection
...in Knowing

I am held by my Master

WAYWORD

She followed love
To an unknown door
Having no idea
What she was there for

The answer to all
Unrelated to situation
Spoke the words
That rang the perfect vibration
...in her soul

He sat in a cell
Boxed in by behavior
A cook in the kitchen
Treated him to a new flavor

She smiled as she presented
The food offered to the throng
A simple gesture displayed
Gave good in the presence of wrong
...systems of thinking

The babies lie in their cribs
Too many to cuddle and hold
But a touch to each
Kept hope alive til words could unfold

Lies that have captured
A culture to believe
That girls are not valued
Beyond what their wombs can conceive
...in a nation of men

There is a Way to Word
That straightens out our mess
No experience, perspective, or position
Could lead us to guess

..........meaning

MAY I HALF YOUR HEART

Maybe I misunderstood
When I agreed to honor your request
Half belongs to me
And the other, I choose to invest
....in loving you

Boundaries are important
No one can have ALL they desire
So why are you disappointed/surprised
That I don't have a ROARing fire
....in pursuit of you

After all this time together
Why would you question my comittment
We have children together
Wondering has produced resentment
....in my needing you

Now, why now, would you want ALL
Is my heart supposed to breathe for you
Shall all movements in life
Reflect the beauty of blue (means love)
....though I thrive in green (means life-giving)

Where am I if I am in you
Do I not have a "me" outside of your name
I am naked before you
Accepting that I am to blame
....for being deaf
........I didn't hear......correctly.....forgive me

....................no, HEAR me

Am I a ME on my own
Can I be seen without LOVE
What is LIFE without LOVE
No more than breathing without purpose
..hmmm

If I have no greater vision
Than to be the green inside the blue
You may HAVE my heart
If I can be your LOVE in all I say and do

Note: Shema means "to hear." The whole point of the WORD, is to HEAR. When we look at the woman in Genesis 2, she didn't "hear" Daddy God, because she was inside the man when Daddy God gave instructions. She indeed made an error in her words to the serpent. Check it out, and get Revelation.

MEANING MATH

Love and marriage
Love and marriage
Go together like
A...something and carriage
....cause that rhymes

He loves me
He loves me not
She loves me
But...maybe, not
....cause I don't think I'm lovable

We're going to the chapel
And we're gonna get married
....cause, well, that's what pretty girls do
But...what if I'm not pretty

Johnny and Mary
Sittin' in a tree
K-I-SS-I-N-G
First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes a baby
In...a...baby....carriage
....cause that's the order of things, right
I think I'm barren

College, Great Job
Excellent Man to provide
Then a nice house and car
To show the world I've arrived
...where
For pity's sake, would someone tell me

........where are we going????

Something is missing from
The facts we've been given
No matter how much information we have
Something HUGE is missin'

Two means difference
It provides humanity a choice
But if we lean to one side
The other has no voice
....how do we know TRUTH

It has to be on the line
....in the expression of the = sign

GRAVE GARDNER

I've been troubled
As of late
Stumbling in the darkness
To the presence of a golden gate

The moment I reach
The glistening bars
I awake, irritated
That I can only go...so...far

~then Reality~

That feeling of want
Presses me to find
Perceived treasures
In my empty mind

There has to be a key
That will open what's closed
Beyond the boundaries
Of what this world knows

~about the Sacred~

Without the all from beyond
The confines of this place
I must reconcile my knowledge
To that locked gate

Imagination and dreams
Invite the bored to entertain
That life would be better
If you possessed all you COULD gain

~without unpleasantness~

Everything in this ground
Grows with weeds and fruit together
Each plant has to fight
To not allow self to be tethered

What is this place I'm in
It seems to be a garden of death
Where the withered and worn
Lay down their last breath

~to a black earth~

And the Grave Gardner
Collects the doomed soul
Awaiting the Revelation
Of a hidden goal

~there has to be a reason~

FAMILY MATTERS

He took our stripes
To give us health
We took His stripes
To gain our wealth

He gave up His crown
To redeem our thorns
We took His crown
To blow our limitless horns

He gave us His tears
To soak our enslaved ground
We took His grief
To silence conviction's sound

He gave us His word
To fight our guilt
We took His word
To grab what others have built

He took our tree
To give us life anew
We took His tree
To do all we desire to do

He took our spear
To give us unity in spirit
We took His spear
To make a megaphone so the WORLD would hear it

............WE RULE THE UNIVERSE......

...............................because Jesus WINS!!!!

He took our grave
To give us resurrection
WE took His grave
And erected a stone of insurrection

that reads:
         You did your job, Jesus
         Now your family will take it from here
         Our grand status, wealth, health, and intellignece
         Will deliver our enemies into fear

Note: Let's get it straight...Daddy God is who we pray to, and His name is LOVE. Jesus is the Way who made it possible for us to talk to His Dad without being incinerated by a HOLY and AWESOME God. If we continue to think that the purpose of Daddy God is as small and earth bound as our biggest dream, we will never engage in His vision to make a world without FEAR!
