SOJOURN

And alone she stood,

amid the ruins

the blowing winds

reminding of her promise.

Amid the ruins

patrolling the night are her guards

for a return of peace is imminent.

Reminding of faithfulness

she awaits standing

hard earth beneath her,

the sunlight softens her face.

For her reflection

transcends all doubt

her stance dispelling

injustice.

And the winds pick up

and none can hear,

her word shoots forth,

and her face reminds.

And they remain

mesmerized

for she effects and transforms

their love.

SEVEN STARS

THE POINT OF RECKONING

Taking account of right and wrong

that point of reckoning is greater then we

the star that governs

shines mightily.

Men, are not yet reaching

this divine intention;

and that awesome day,

that recounts.

A lesser light

and a greater one

illuminating deeds

that none can fathom.

The star that guides remains great,

even greater

than that point,

reckoning.

governs;

the safety

of the inhabitants.

of the souls of men;

is guarded

by the fi rmness of the lights.

the foundations

of the earth.

of the unknown.

The land swells

and quakes

for the times

are hard.

AGAINST THE SHORES

The ocean beating

against the banks

retreating slowly

unto itself.

Against the shores

with strength, beating

manifesting

persistence and power.

like the eclipse of the sun

and moon

remain to witness of actions untold.

The spring equinox,

a meeting of sorts;

for wonders transcend

and tell of God’s glory.

And every form and kind

challenges to become;

for mighty they will be

exceeding is their source.

For nature is their own

creation is a part of their existence;

changing and transforming

the ways before them.

For the failings are silenced

by the waves and the winds;

and through the elements, and Godly spirit

all is formed.

all exists

yet on earth

the soul comes forth.

in a body;

so through creation

he transcends, refi nes and forms.

and spirit;

even in desolation

love pursued.

Hesitation I feel

for dire are the paths

presented

before my destiny I stand, and I break.

The breaking of the knees

the lowering of the head;

for humbly I understand

the fall.

Binding, what is good

on an alter;

for doubt

has overtaken my call.

Safety thereof

bringing stillness,

to my own devotion,

for peacefulness is fruitful.

Slow are the steps

mine, I must inherit

bestowed

are the blessing of the Lord.

Humbleness of spirit

for destiny is from within

I recede

I fall.

The world caved in;

for my love for you,

I couldn’t bear

the destruction.

The world broke down;

when I spoke your name,

I couldn’t overcome

the barren lands.

The world overcame;

the depth of my love,

such an end.

I look to the heavens;

you pray to your God;

for mercy,

forever.

A covenant

for the world.

you left

for eternities.

Light my way,

illuminate my night,

release these never-ending questions,

never-ending doubts.

Weariness and hunger

deprivation and neglect

are conditions of humanity

a condition of regret.

THE VERY MOMENT

He battled

for his honor,

he battled

for his name.

He fought for his own recall

he yearned for his own longing.

He gave up his honor

for a sin he did not know.

He struggled eternally

to keep up a moment,

the one that let him cry

and let him feel his fright.

That very moment,

made him an equal

thay very moment,

broke him down.

The moment he saw,

the moment he came

he knew he would never lose again,

he knew he would never win.

The very moment he conquered,

the very moment he achieved,

he knew he would never surrender;

he knew of his imperfect state.

That very moment he battled,

that very moment he fought;

he knew it was forever

he knew it was the end.

IN CAPTIVITY I WAIT

In captivity I wait;

your gates I must open,

your temple walls

will protect my ground.

Protect me from the lashings

of existence;

protect me from the drunkenness

of the times.

Your sacrifices

will melt the oppression;

the ropes that bind me

will come undone.

The chains that hold me will burn

because of your pleas;

cruelty will dissipate

because of your righteousness.

In captivity I wait;

your gates I must open,

your temple walls

will let me overcome.

THE SUN IS HOT

The sun is hot

in these hard times;

give me shade

so I can think.

Another day

I will ask for,

so I can mend

my irreconcilable state.

The moon cools

the scorching times,

inspiring us,

and our imaginations.

Another night

brings me shade

helps me mourn

my desolation.

The freezing rain

in the cold morn,

the falling snow

will appease my existence.

Another season

passed by

perhaps tomorrow

you will know.

Hail, rain,

snow and sun,

water cools

my thirsty soul.

READY TO BE MOLDED

The clay

is ready to be molded

the mortar

is ready to be formed.

From nothing

he built;

from void

there was something.

He supported,

he formed,

he anointed;

snow to dust.

An even life force

ebbs urgently,

last hopes

are actualized.
