# 100

Wake up, early morning,

Less than six hours of sleep,

We’re in the play practice,

Hurling our lines out like sheep,

Forget and make all weep,

The times getting deep,

In the day, hey I’m O.K,

Little wired, not all that tired

Better work on Act II or I may get fired,

The lights, bright, dim,

Off and on,

First you’re here, then you’re gone,

Wow, drama like magic wand,

Even though of laughing I am fond,

Stay who you’re supposed to be,

Be mad, sad, bad and fill the guests with glee.

#99

All praise be to Christ the King/

The most Holy M.C./

For Him we sing/

Brothers and sisters/

In harmony with God’s will

Toes and heals get blisters/

Cause we can’t stand being still,

But we need to get rid of the crud in our fingernails,

Cause if we don’t get rid of it then the church body smells/

And looks bad to those on the outside/

It even is disgusting from the inside/Let’s call on Jesus for some chloride/

To cleanse/ to get the church out of the bends/ to help us better reflect/

The image of God, that is perfect,

This is what I’m saying/ get on your knees and start praying/

Ain’t no good reason to be straying/ get on your knees and start praying.

Alluminum

#98

I keep my mind on money/

And my mind on my girl/

But the main focus gotta be/

God’s plan for the world/

I been hearing so many punch lines/

Somebody’s trying to get slapped/

How come there’s got to be so much foul in the rap/

Slip the trap/ out of the arms of death/

To savor every breath/and chance ya gonna get/

Cause death ain’t just for a moment/life’s just filling out the application/it’s an eternal enrollment/ Who’s your sponsor/ sure no tripping dogs/cause you won’t get in for being

A mad skilled dancer/We all have this choice: to follow or not/check your answer/

Cause ya don’t wanna miss this shot/What’s the plan?

How we gonna get a man to understand?

We oughta look again once more

To the sacred feet and hands,

And in that love, my friend,

Is where we’re gonna find the plan.

Are you pickin what I’m dropping/

Are you goin with my flow

You’re eternal destination/

You best be sure where you go

Some people try to work it/

Others try to pay their way

But don’t you know (Christ did it all/

He rose on the third day

There’s no need for ceremonies/

Or you’re shoutin in the streets

It ain’t about your tree/

Or what your sportin on your feet

It’s all in who you trust/

I say it’s all about your heart

It’s all about His love that keeps your world from falling apart.

#97

With the pain,

I can feel it by my side

With the pain

Things are going on fine,

With the pain

I’m having a good time

With the pain.

#96

Though my eyes are dying,

I can still see,

For I need to view the world around me.

For the world is more than colors,

Shapes and sizes,

The way I see,

Is greater than with eyes.

#95

“Death is there – who would care.

I’ll run away.

You can’t sit and stare,

But death is there.”

#95

My pencil is blunt,

My hand is tired,

As a poet you’d think,

That I’d get fired,

If I could write,

If I could think,

Maybe I could,

Stop wasting ink,

Maybe you feel the way I do,

If so, I’d like to get to know you.

#94

Have you ever had a good time,

A fun time,

A happy time,

I’m sure you’ve had sad times,

Mad times,

Extremely bad times,

I’m sure you’ve had many times,

But have you ever had a good time?

A good time makes you smile.

It’s a time with your friends

A time worthwhile

The conversation leaves the room rabbit trails and bends.

Having fun,

Singing a song,

Cracking jokes,

All day long.

With all my friends,

With all my memories,

Sorrows seem to be cleansed,

Then, poof, released,

In a storm,

Of laughter and joy,

Ahh! Finally away from the norm.

Many days you may remember things you miss

With your body so tired it’s about to turn lime,

But I wonder as you were reading this

Have you had a good time?

#93

I stumble through the darkness of the night.

The noises bringing you people to sudden fright,

But I’m here for you.

I’m sure you doubt it’s true,

But the reason I’m here is for you.

I haven’t won this here fight,

But the bad guys have more guns

Then last night

You know I want to save you,

You know I’m going to try,

But if I am a failure, then at least together we’ll die.

#92

I walk into

Another view

If I disturb

Your mental setting,

Please don’t sue.

I have found

A hidden place.

It’s mysterious aura

I do embrace,

Though I am weak

And of little skill,

But I still enjoy the chase.

#90

We were having such a good time,

Sure the conversation wasn’t that great,

But the mood was fine,

Till the knight in rich shining armor

Was way too kind,

The way that him and her get along

Frustrated me.

It seemed now he deserved top notch

Attention,

Destroying my fantasy,

Crushing the key

To let me see

And so between us I feel tension,

But please let me mention,

He was more than distraction, when

He entered the match,

Forcing me to be more and more detached,

With my greedy heart still scratched.

This knight in shining armor,

Makes me jealous for her,

I realize I adore her,

And inside my heart murmurs,

Bidding good-bye,

To the knight

Who I wish would fly away

With someone else on his flight,

Cause this here shabby noble,

Would like the fair dame to join his hobble,

But I don’t wanna cause no trouble.

I couldn’t just tell him go leave,

Still it was hard to deceive myself,

So I let my mind slip way in stealth,

While the words keep on coming,

Out of their mouths,

I start to leave the house,

If conversation wallowing as I may

Cause stay,

Why can’t I just say,

How I feel to her,

Truly it’s a curse,

Cause I’m bound to my fear

Like a horse is a horse.

The knight in shining armor,

Makes me feel jealous for her,

I realize I adore her,

And inside my heart murmurs,

Bidding good-bye,

To the knight,

Who I wish would fly

Away with someone else in his flight,

This here shabby noble,

Would like her to join my hobble,

But I don’t wanna cause no trouble

#89

Hey God,

This is my song for,

I ask how do you do,

To others this may sound strange and weird and bizarre

But still,

I ask how you are,

I know I wrote this song second,

But you’re not my second place,

If I start to stray,

Please slap me in the face,

But not too hard,

I want to stay on track,

Heave-hoeing forward and

Never for sure, don’t look back,

For the wack,

And go to drugs like crak

Or simply loosing it and

Becoming a quack

I love you,

Please use me,

Thanks for loving me,

I wanna say I love you,

Plese help me always

Keep you number one

To me.

Love ya,

# 88

This is my attempt to write songs

Often when I say I say them wrong, I say them wrong

I’m covered and things I find things hard to say,

But pretty much I’d like to hang with you

At least part of everyday, everyday,

See there’s something weird, something strange,

Cause you’re time is of limited range, here, I still want to get near,

And if I could get near, I think it could go on and on so long,

Then again often things change, but even if it didn’t work,

I’d try hard not to be a jerk,

Hopefully, we would have had fun,

Laughing, singing, talking in the sun,

In the sun, Everything pleasing to the Son,

My God and Holy one, I wanna do what’s right,

But still hold you, there’s a bit of a fight, and a bit of a right,

But I love you, tight

I think this is true,

That I really do,

Love you.

#87

We can sing

We can dance

We can make a joyful prance

Because the Lord is alive

And he gave us life,

So rejoice with me,

In a grand harmony

Come on and love him…

Come on and love him

For the Lord loves you,

Yeah man it’s true,

He came down here to save me and you,

So come on and love him

Come on and love him

#86 The Forest Lure

The dark rain splashes in the forest,

Splitter splatter,

Pitter patter,

The smell of wet herbs goes into my chest,

Deep in the forest,

The vines finger themselves around my arms,

I try to find my way through the maze,

And wonder if my quest is a race,

While I am choking in this forest’ charms – deep in the forest.

I now feel idle here,

Oh, forest you now seem old and crippled,

You are not fresh and I feel quite fickle,

Feelings changing I fear – deep in the rforest

Perhaps there is another forest,

But they all seem overwhelmingly hard,

I should be careful, they may leave a scar,

Still I can’t let the urge for it rest, deep in the forest.

The forest’s arms are doves,

Their beauty is like precious gold,

Dangerous! Marvelous! Mixed and rolled,

The forests are loves.

#85 Evangelism

The WORD getting out is making Governments Mad/But to tell you the truth I’m not feeling bad / In the hands of God…Rad/my spirit’s in ascension/ Now look the securities all up with apprehension/ They’re fighting and biting at each others throats/ so much tension/ They’re always trying to take the others votes/ searching for Bibles in my totes/but as I said before I’m under the loving care of My Lord/ With the Holy Spirit my sword/the enemies lockdown. I hope to get near it/ moving forward/ See you can preach/teach/or go door to door/ Or you can fly overseas/pray on your knees/live it your life/ There’s blind people looking for the keys/ of life/ there’s so much strife/ I’m glad I’m hooked up with the church/ whose symbol is God’s wife/

So spread the Word/ It’s fun/ Let them know life saving by Jesus ain’t done or finished/ Soon Satan’s forces are gonna be diminished/ so be fast/ be smart/ and join the side that’s gonna win it!

Everyday/ we should try to pray/ for the people living in an unreached society/ I’m not trying to preach about piety/ I’m letting you know there’s a lot of people in large amounts/ People haven’t heard/the Good News of the Word/ I won’t even try to count/ but staying home is what some Christians prefer/ don’t be obscure/ about reaching sick/ and gone astray/ just ‘cause they don’t fit in your flick/ don’t mean you shouldn’t go out of the way/ let them know the Truth the actuality/ God sent His Disciples on mission/ that is reality/ and under his permission and supervision/ Let’s head out for a grand collision/ bright versus night/ Good verses Evil/ Wrong verses Right/ Cause it’s God verses the Devil/ It’s clear whose gonna be victorious/ The King of All Kings: Christ Jesus Hallelujah/ His name is so Glorious!

84+ 3

Green mean lean

Round as a bean

Think you’re a queen

I don’t like you.

84+ 2

Light is bright to my sight at night,

But I don’t think its right,

So I hold on tight in the fight

Falling, drown out the darkness,

So I connect to the moon light,

Start to sway feel a little fright

Fall into the dark and feel its bite

The jaws are close – quiet, but I go ta go

#84+ 1

S.E.W. Is there something that troubles you?

Well I got questions. Will I get answers?

Distracted in sessions? The thoughts keep growing like cancers.

What is what?

And Why will I?

Or Why will I not?

I need a cloth for my cut

Cause my fever’s getting hot.

#84

I feel tired. My head is heavy as led.

Don’t care about sounding good just want to go to bed.

Not my bed.

A bigger one.

A softer one.

And pillow that is taller than mine,

Larger, stuffed, fatter.

Sheets that are cold.

A blanket that is warm.

I would lay there hours.

Until I became restless

Then I would stretch, groan, yawn loudly,

And jump out of bed.

Sounds nice dosen’t it?

You’re probably feeling sleepy now and wanting the same thing.

Of course you do.

Who doesn’t?

But it seems when you have a cold, and you’re sick, you want it more.

When your head is heavy as led.

#83

Reign of water on my eyes

The sword will fight you.

Let’s see who dies.

Gates of black and fragile spears

Cannot hold back the horde of tears.

The funny thing is, I’m not sad.

They’re wasted on naught,

And that’s too bad.

Ink of my soul should not be squandered,

But should write for a reason.

Write like a comic-tragedy well pondered

Write of love and its occasional treasure

Then perhaps I can laugh, really laugh.

#82

Lions and tigers eat people,

But loneliness eats the soul

Alone we can do many things,

But alone we are not whole.

Something rubs blisters inside our skin,

And our hearts soon turn gray.

It whispers and screams deep within,

And makes us start to pray.

It makes our heads grow cloudy and full,

As red curtains taunt the raging bull.

If it stays, the skin may go away.

# 81

Bob was a boy, but now he’s a man.

He plays hand bells in a rock and roll band.

He plays games like Wolfenstein

And occasionally Master Mind.

You may meet Bob.

That could be fun.

If you call him a slob,

There will be no malice spun.

For in the cobwebs of his brain,

He’s rather pococurante.

Purple dudes once beat him up.

They tried to make him see

That if you do not shine your shirt

A “slob” is what you’ll be.

But Bob’s pococurante.

# 80 (wasn’t a poem)

Campfire

Dancing

Smoke

And ale

Tomorrow we’ll start on our treasure trail

Fa la la la la la la

Smiling

Drinking

Singing

Laugh

Fa la la la la la la

Ride, Ride, Ride all night

That warrior rides

Ride, Ride to the fight

Zena, Zena has come to soar

Zena, Zena, now we’ll be brave dodging through the trees

To the left and to the right

As fast and cool as a midnight breeze.

Zena, Zena, has come to save

Zena, Zena, now we’ll be brave

Sword she holds slashes around

She hurls it to and fro with ease

She keeps on fighting till hers is knocked down.

# 77

Funky hip disco lights

Oh so shiny oh so bright

Multi colors swirling round

Gonna make a happy night

Funky people love to dance

Waving arms and sway pants

On the walkway

On the stage

Everyone waves their hands

Funky dudes

Some have fros

Even some girls with pierced up nose

Yeah, all these people got style

You’ll be doing it to, when the fad grows

Funky music in my ear

Slowly pop a nice root beer

Sip it and feel the rush

Disco’s the way, truly dear

#76 EXTRA

Flowers

Smoke

Pink elephants with white wings

Lay on soft sheets while an angelic voice sings,

Peace dude,

Peace is what I feel,

Floating

Falling

Pine cones

And shining sun

Falling through barrel lit nights

Dude, it’s so much fun
