NOT SO BAD

Everything good is not known
Often they come too much disguised
Comes the reluctance to but own
Not yet so resourceful; not so wise

Everything good is yet unknown
Too often mistaken as being bad
Thus out of proportiion often blown
Lost the opportunities to but had

CONTEMPORARILY

Our environment is no longer that of a garden
Nor of once purity of existence of Eve and Adam
But of the same reluctance to seek His pardon
By faith and intellect employ His redemption plan

We are but close matches to our environment
Of a purity of existence but of a dire need
Lorded over by private kingdoms and governments
Mostly of what we inherently, acceptably heed

PROSPERITY

Entire societies are governed by political lies
Enticed by make-believe and well-rehearsed deceit
Much too often led to thinking that they decide
Where everything real to them turns out counterfeit

They are daily bombarded with created needs
Further faciliated with indebtness to but own
And deeper and deeper sucked into such "deals"
Until of empty political promise; equalled loan

BUT ONE

within the context and characteristics being God
He is known and worshipped through different names
But once over the worshipper's life would "lord"
Then to all collectively be but one and the same

Within the context and characteristics being God
Irregardless of what the worshipper may stake claim
Sufficient to the guidance of His holy, written words
We all worship the same God calling upon differing names

INSPIRATIONALLY

Inspirationally written must be inspirationally read
To capture what is heart-felt; beyond mere understanding
And when in similar state of mind but the text re-read
Enabling to encompass what was initially but seeming

For inspirational writings arise out of an emotional need
Written in passion towards a deep inward fulfilling
In its dual existence (written and read)but taketh lead
Forms for all concerned; sides, foundation and/or ceiling

GOD MIGHT SAY

What if all that you’ve done for someone
You were ignored and/or rejected
With no acknowledgement; having done
Although only benignly neglected

What if all that you’ve done for someone
A relationship not one bit closer
Yet for them so much more to be done
But with a single act to foster

IN LIFE ITSELF

We approach God by every different way
Though not confined to the practice; our religion
Except in that way would we pass each day
Governing the arrival at but every decision

We approach God but many different ways
Mostly isolated being in our time; type of worship
But interpersonally is how well we actually pray
The remainder of our lives and its stewardship

IN ALL HONESTY

God has His fair share of glory
He would have every human too
That's why each an authentic story
In exact dynamics not even few

If each was but sincerely shared
If each,by another, careful audience
For total upliftment all prepared
In terms of humanity but alliance

DEFORMITY

The need for God takes full priority
Only dulled by varying consciousness
This hidden drive is our one commonality
Yet but responsible for our global mess

Getting close to God takes all priority
Lost by varying degrees; His consciousness
So instead of one whole body a deformity
In terms of whole limbs those much less

CONFISCATED

We deeply crave the fulfillment of God
But of our lower consciousness; substitute
When still not satisfied by all we've had
We orient ourselves; to such feelings, suit

We remain craving for but empty-handed
Lending ourselves to dissatisfaction; diseased
Unable to deliver yet unconsciously demanded
We're captured by lesser: Our lives so seized

GRACE 3

This may entertain as God does
Amidst all your frolics; fantasies
While by His will fed and housed
Easing your pain; very anxieties

This may entertain as God does
Though still not of your care; priority
The very nature; expanse of His love
His grace but awaiting your maturity

BEST BEFORE...

God is ever present; absent through denial
Situationally may intrude upon your thinking
By your own emptiness; amidst life's trials
During the abandonment of any ship asinking

God is ever present; absent through denial
Yet a strong answer when made eventually
At the other end, when at tone, would dial
Best before...Good in any unforseen calamity

OF EVERY MAN

""Every man for himself and God for us, all"
Really no idle saying but to be taken lightly
For every man, in his own way, of a common call
To be free, fair and a need to speak/act justly

"Every man for himself and God for us, all"
Ecompasses the focus of every man but eventually
Whether how well composed or on his face, sprawled
In nothing short of fulfilling own spirituality

JUST HOW

Which scriptural account guide your ways
How did you learn of its appeal
How much of it is of today's
How found practical; how found real

Which scriptural version do you follow
How much of your life does it track
What does it predict of tomorrow
How well does it defend when attacked

CLOSE-UP

If God was near and as dear
How would I do than now
If I did love Him as much I fear
What would I be somehow

If God was as near I'd declare
"Oh what but founded peace!"
Of a particular love; readily shared
In a relationship that can never cease

OF BACKGROUND

Imagine a person, to you, very little known
But who was always interested in your welfare; thus provided
Whom for your lack of discovery bemoans
For of a relationship so lopsided

Imagine a person of whom you have only heard
Whom for generations, for your family, adequately provided
Have not, in any decision but a single word
In spite of such role willingly abided

ONE DAY ACOMING

One day, life as you accept it, would no longer exist
For God and His peace be but quietly yearning
Gone you will be and for a while; missed
Yet of new and of surprise thoroughly learning

That day when all will be changed is steadily acoming
And if not of preparation but be deeply shocked
For it's of much time for reckoning; accounting
And against which everything of chance is stacked

IN ACTIVE FAITH

In the tabernacle of conscience awaits God
For outside stimuli, with Him, co-incide
Forming a base from which to launch forward
With every confirmation felt deep inside

In the tabernacle of conscience awaits God
For the temple, bodily, to be built
Facilitating the blessings thereafter showered
Preparation for with Him to everlasting sit

ROCK-A-BYE

There may be much more money in the wrong thing
And for a lack of proper; a sense of achievement
So for any other but psychological it may bring
As equally to others disbelief and/or amazement

There may be much more popularity in the wrong thing
Owing to shallow admiration and an absence of "deep"
By its sheer numbers so considered good; right thing
So touched and lulled into a complacent sleep

KNOWING IT ALL

You know only too well how deceived
All the places where lurks treachery
You know too of where but well received
Where of life sits its treasury

You know of ways,ill (having been there)
The taunts and of such consequence
The virtues of which but help you prepare
Of better but of former; intolerance

MANIFESTATIONS

The manifestations of these times were all foretold
Obviously too few had heeded their warnings
Attidunally today of that still too many stone-cold
As closer to its worst consistently nearing

The manifestations of these times were often reiterated
With any heed just as many times ignored
Now here upon us-With so many it's complicated
With so little time: Could so ill afford

ATOP 2

Of all the species we're least instinctive
By intellect; its reasoning make deliberations
The very aspect of us that makes dinstinctive
For of every action can be offered an explanation

Over all the species we would thus exalt
But the very trapdoor of potential downfall
Coupled with a reluctance to admit at fault
Too often deprived of but ownership at all

OF CHANGES

Attempt not to change the times
For of it but become a mere trophy
Part of a statistic; some added sign
For so much are of these times mostly

Attempt not to change the times
For all of history contributed “these”
The only changes are that of minds
Either to be better or worst diseased

PSYCHOTIC

Greed and bigotry are two mental conditions
Warranting rigorous therapy
Rendering esteem to lesser; really animations
In over-rides of actuality

Greed and bigotry; indeed mental conditions
Degraded thinking hence behavior
In addresses of issues in slanted renditions
Surviving in an aura of disfavor

ATOP

Uniquely so, we are the best of creation
The lesser (rest of creation) created thus
With those very attributes engineered damnation
Abusing oureslves; all placed within our trust

We were to have dominion over all creation
Cunningly we have transformed ourselves; victims
Of once graceful spot but grave interpretation(s)
Now desperately making virtue of committed sin

GOOD BOOKS

Scriptures are so pure but reflective
As many their interpretations as man's
So to each reader but communicative
Just that simple but a few books can

Scriptures are so pure but reflective
Catering to all in each stage of growth
So fit any mentality; so non-selective
Effective greatly when taken under oath

MANUALLY

Manuals for life are all scripturally written
When accessed in their original state
To life most applicable; inspirationally filling
But where those reading must reciprocate

Manuals for life; often free for the taking
Were written for man's ultimate liberty
When life persuades for such an undertaking
With such an embarkation done faithfully

SUM AND TOTAL

In every aspect of every decision taken
Accumulatively qualify us certain options
For we indulge in or of righteousness forsake
Not without warning; sufficiently cautioned

In every aspect of every decision taken
Bet it's not a matter just taken for granted
Its peddled by all adopted or forsaken
By summarily just how poor or well implanted

APPRECIATIVELY 2

I won't be a part of your act forever
Nor would you forever be part of mine
Currently we are of each endeavours
But two products of the same line

I won't be a part of your act forever
Nor would you, the way you are in mine
If anything at least of different flavors
Once something I had beheld so fine

SOARING 2

Be keen;be precise at what you do
For higher levels so prepare
So gain the skills to tackle new
To reach where never before dared

Be keen; be thorough at what you do
So discover how much; even more
Transcend to places where but few
Over former self so higher, soar
