'A Small Request'
They turned out my light
And now with corners
Dimly lit
Do they even "give a shit"?
I have no way of knowing
Nor do I care to find
Another judgement waiting
To hurt or tear and grind...
For I have kept Life's motion
To the best I have to give
And now I only ask
That I might live....

‘Life’
It oft time seems
the mighty waves
Just wash right over me
And leave me weak
and trembling....
A young sweet
waif at sea...
And I’ve not harmed
a single soul
I’ve smiled and
lent a hand
I’ve walked
a thousand miles
with some
And tried
to understand....
I look into
the mirror and see
A lovely maiden fair
Then another wave comes in
And I’m an old grey mare..

'The Bible'
Carry your bible
Inside of your heart
So it will be there
Right from the start
The pages are thin
But the message
Is strong
No matter the problem
It won't take you long
To make the right choice
To lead , never follow
The lies that Satan
may tempt you
To swallow.
For God is your strength
You have nothing to fear
Your life will be blessed
Hold His hand
He is here.

'The Message'
A shining light
In this foul darkness
I shall be
For I love Him
Who bore the cross
For me
Some...I know
Must crucify Him still
For God hath given them
their own free will
But woe to evil demons
Who delight
In smothering the goodness
Of this night
For Satan plays the tune
To which they dance
And all seems fun
Obsessed
And in their trance
Until the moment
They shall see their fate
and find
It is...just then
A heart beat late.

'The Last Question'
Is WAR
Man's response to death?
(that surly thing that makes
no sense to mortals?)
Is it like the small boy
Who screams at thunder
to prove he's not afraid?
A "Death isn't scary
so let's do it up big?"
Attitude?
And what of Mothers
The givers...the bearers of Life?
Reluctant to feed
Their just grown babes
Into its ugly jaws?
Yet stand beside their boys
Hand over heart
Pledging
The world into oblivion...

'Unshed'
Why can't I cry?
Doesn't betrayal make tears?
Doesn't pain given through years
add up to screams?
I want to scream but who will care?
Just absorbed by rancid air...
I don't have the energy it would take
I need it now to be a fake...
