Help me dear Lord I pray - As the heart & mind do warfare with each other -
-
Looking beyond the day into tomorrow .
In trying to forget yesterdays sorrows .
-
From the depths of the soul the poison flows - Like a river ladden by too much storm water -
-
The children sing along as they take turns jumping rope -
Their voices trail along just out of sync -
-
Pounding aloud the mighty mallet - Crashing like thundar upon celestial cymbols -
-
Sitting at my table with dirty nails & furrowed brow -
After a days work mulling over all of the choices made -
-
Covered up tight the little secret -
Holding the attention of the world -
-
Opening the eyes in seeing all around us - Opportunities abound to be better persons -
-
Blood shot eyes scan the skies seeking signs from above -
As men stoup like creatures to do what is beneath men -
-
A cry goes out like a shooting star across the night time sky -
Devout men & women worship God in honest sincerity & truth -
-
Daily the mouth cries out to you as the heart of man seeks -
Life long is the questing in this life we all lead -
-
Patiently awaiting the impending return - Look to the heavens for the sign -
-
Short breaths are taken in -
As if living causes pain -
-
The sound of boots marching in cadence -
Proud men fighting for love of much -
-
My God, I appeal to you in hope -
You whose name causes the very air to vibrate -
-
I shouted aloud for all to hear -
The way my heart aches when made to witness suffering -
-
Where is the captian of the ship?!
For the ship is rapidly sinking -
-
The earth is spinning out of control -
As conflicts rage and people bicker -
-
Great & greedy eyes molest the entire world -
Seeking to satiate & insatiable appeitite -
-
The watching world sits in quite suspence as the quire play's acted out -
Gasping occassionally in response to the odd goings on there in -

Oh God guide my hand as the arrow is made ready for flight -
Into the midst of the fight between worrier kings -
-
Time goes by and fades into nothingness -
So much so that minute measures mean nothing -

Smoke wafts up from the relics of former glories -
Worrior nations rise and fall to others -
-
Children are sent to school in the early morning -
Where young minds are taught to conform when logic questions life -
-
With a sigh the heavy soul cringes -
Not knowing with whom to confide -
-
As breath returns to the body at sunrise -
The swell of thoughts enter in as well -
-
Alkaline odors float in the updraft -
As wind blows across slowly cooling concrete -
-
Once again I sit under the stars waiting for -
Chance or fate to take my hand & run with me -
-
Tender caresses tickle the flesh resonating like buddish singing bowls -
Subtle kisses from tiny unseen mouths awaken the senses from thei
-
Oh heavenly father I believe in you with the whole heart -
yet, I suffer daily as I bare witness to suffering in this world -
-
Oh God deliever from the devils of Earths' present -
Evil men with hidden agendas -
-
Where are you ?
Seeking souls inquire -
-
Oh God what is this burning in my chest -
Throbbing with each labored breath -
-
Out stretched hands in dire need -
Lowly man is as ever victim of greed -
-
The nightmare continues anew -
But a glimpse of Hell to hunt the soul -
