Just A One Night Stand

Just a one night stand
Just another life unplanned
One more child be damned



UNDER ATTACK

4
If I had only kept silent
If I had only kept my big mouth shut
Why did I have to attract so much attention
You never bothered me when I was out there
But now, you just can't vex me enough

You've touched my body; it aches.
You've touched my money; it's thin.
You've touched my clarity; cloudy inside an out
You've touched my friends; what friends?!?!

Why have I invited such an attack?
It is not fair.

Still, when I tried to figure it out, all I got was a splitting headache . . .
Until I entered the sanctuary of God.
Then I saw the whole picture: (Psalms 73:16-17)

No, not the sanctuary with all the well dressed people ignoring my plight, but the one within me
The one that was built......by my praise....
There I learned that my Praise of my maker got your attention
it moved you to attack me

My anointing provoked this attack.

Calling the heavenly hosts, for it's not in my strength I boast.
For I know victory is mine, one praise at a time
With my praise, I will attack back.

My silence is the victory you ultimately desire
But my God has carried me through the fire,
and placed me in a wealthy place.
So to my enemy......about face!




Can't You Take a Hint

1
You called and got no answer......again
Can't you take a hint?
You said set up an appointment; let's meet.
I said uhhhh Ok.
Can't you take a hint?
You went for the lips, you got the cheek
You called, "Can we talk"
I said, "I can't speak"
You said, "I love you"
I said, "Me too"
You said, "What you doin' this weekend?"
I said, "I don't know."
You said, "Lets hook up"
I said, "Oh yeah I forgot......."
Can't you take a hint?
It's not you, it's me.

Running In Vain

4

You called

I ran

You called,

but I was chasing something

You called,

but I was in hot pursuit

You called,

but I was busy enjoying my new conquest

You called,

but I was fighting my conquest

You called,

but I was chasing my conquest

You called

while I was mourning my lost conquest

You called

I said what

You said here

It was what I thought I was chasing

when you first called......................

and he doesn't mix sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22)

I've Lost A Great Friend

1
Sad to say
I realized today
a great relationship
has slipped away

Not an overnight severance
or a magical disappearance,
but a gradual decay
much to my dismay

But I'm a reconciler
not one to give up easy
It's my overwhelming desire
to have this charmer back with me

So I'm shaking off depression
fighting the enemy's oppression
determined not to let this good thing end
I'm reconciling with my friend

My friend

in the mirror

You Can't Win

0
You can't win
the war within
since you continue to lash out
the pain you inflict without
metastasises your pain within
 
You can't win
the war within
until you accept
that you can't win
 
Relinquish the reigns
and thus relinquish your pain
Let him in
You can't win
The war within
until you
Let him in
 

Blogging - More Than I Thought - Haiku

Blogging was just words
How differently I feel now
Words are death and life




Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
Proverbs 18:21

Ready? (an abc poem)

Are you ready to answer?
Because once you start you can’t quit
Called not by man but God
Destined for success yet
Enveloped in solitude
For your ear must be accessible
Go forth; but only if your sure.
He’s patient



Jesus replied, "No one who puts his hand to the plow
and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God."


Tired Of Your "Sorry But"

1
Baby; I’m sorry I did you like that BUT
You put me on the spot in front of my boys
And you know that ain’t cool
Cause I can’t be looking like no punk
I’m Sorry BUT You know I love you
I’m Sorry BUT you know I aint never hit you like that before neither.

Baby I’m sorry BUT,
You wasn’t payin’ me no ‘tention
And yo girl was all up in ‘dis
Baby I’m sorry but,
You know since you had the baby
You been kinda distance and
I’m Sorry but a man gots needs baby
I’m sorry but you know this the first and last time Ima do something like this..........




Hi Sorry BUT. Just left you this note to say sorry but,
I had to leave you for a man. Yes a man.
No not another man. You don’t yet qualify to be called a man.
I’m sorry but, all hope is not lost.
The man I left you for has enough mercy for even you Sorry But.


"Come, see a man
who told me everything I ever did.
Could this be the Christ?" John 4:29

Not A Poet

0
I'm not a poet
And I know it
You can critique
Even say it's weak
I'm not a poet
And I know it
But if this is a key
To keep me free
I'm not a poet
And I know it
But I wanna try
I wanna step out of my comfort zone
I wanna stretch
I wanna grow
I'm not a poet
And I know it
But this itch is there
Ya know?
