Itching Ears
Itching ears,
Itching ears
Fill them with flea powder
Itching ears
Itching ears
For they only deny His power
They do not wish
To hear the truth
Always and only
Are they in pursuit
Of
The self
Themselves, myself
Always and only me
Tell me not the truth
Or I fear my ears will bleed
Gently soothe me
Caress my foolish soul
Lie to me,
My pride and vanity cajole
For I fear you know
This Christianity a book
Speaks of
Would not fit me
Hand in glove
It causes pain
Might even lead
Me to an early grave
So,
Silence your truth
I want no more proof
Of
Creation’s Almighty
Glorious King!
What not me!
A sinner
What not me!
Such words belong
Only to the antiquities
God loves me
This I know
& only blessings
Do I want to be shown
Suffering is not what
I deserve
God should give me
What I want when I want it
Is that not what you observe?
I wish to live as I desire
So tell me no unpleasant words
Like
Obedience
Picking up my cross
Salvation from hell
So please,
Such words to me
Do Not Tell!
But yet,
I sigh
Sometimes I cry
Longing for something
I feel I am missing
I do not have that bliss yet
Where is it of that word
I have often heard
My kismet?
So pastor speak to me
The truth
Perhaps that is
Really the only precious root
Of all existence
I promise to now listen
Without resistance
Come Lord Jesus
Teach me
Holy Spirit reach me
I beg
I wish to only
Be led
Forever & always
Toward your glory
Which eternally and blissfully
Now surrounds your Head!
YOU Are
You are the flame
Within the candle’s light
You are the fire
Within its heat
The wind inside each
Taken breath
The song that causes
My small heart to beat
Without YOU,
I would not,
Could not
Begin to exist
Your love alone helps me
Each of this dark world’s lusts
To resist
Praise you,
Thank you
YAHWEH,
God,
Father,
For helping me along
Each of life’s most treacherous
Precarious turns & twists!!
Gut Me
Gut me
Tear me
Shred me
Shatter me
Open me up
Clean me out
Leave nothing of the old
So my same old story
No longer is allowed
To be told
Purge my inner abscess
Of all the rotten pus
Even though its stench
I may most firmly clutch
Give me, Lord Jesus,
Your purity
Your holiness transform
me
All of this above
I seek with unabashed
sincerity

In Love?
In love with Jesus
Is that what I’m
Supposed to be?
New idea at times
Something worth the try?
Perhaps of this should I see
Infatuated, Adoring
Up in my heart should
I be storing
For someone such as Him
These feelings will He win
From within me?
The answer to all these questions
Should be
A loud resounding yes
For to love someone else
You must let go of self
Which is assuredly for most
A very difficult test
But that is what we’re
Called to be
I think I’ll try it
More just to see
What results can possibly come
From making an attempt to
Follow God’s Only Living Son
So,
Forward, onward
I will go
At times not at all to know
Exactly how to walk
Or talk like Him
My goodness, patience
At times will wear incredibly thin
But hoping more & more
As on I go His ways to win
So myself I need to remind
More than just one time
With these simple words
‘Not I but Christ that liveth in me’
Hoping, praying someday
A new better version of myself
Will this world finally be able to see!!
A Devil’s Dance
Around & around
Up & down
Whirling, madly swirling
This devil’s dance
To mesmerize,
Trying to entrance
To fool, deceive
Destroy
Only purpose for
A devils’ dance
More powerful than any opiate
Illegal it should be
For it teaches to never satiate
Teaches you not to perceive
Take off the blinders
Stop watching satan’s sidewinders
Frantically writhing
Rotten to the core
Pain is all that is left in store
For all who will follow
a devil's dance!
