I didn't want to see it coming.
Another lesson to learn.
Got myself involved in something,
Then I got burned.
Put my feelings out there.
Met with a cold-hearted stare.
The devil tempted me
with yet another double dog dare.
If I had been more discerning...
had applied my spiritual learning
then I wouldn't have been
the one wishing and yearning.
Back then called out to God for help
but He didn't come running.
He remembered what I did,
so on with the shunning.
Sit in a mess for awhile
until it stinks like bile.
Rush before the Lord again
and ask him to walk this mile.

Ugly Man
Thoughts and prayers to heal a soul--
take it all in!
Purge the sin!
Got more than enough stuff--
not interested in more fluff!
Need healing for my soul!
Material things can be annoying
like a big black, ugly mole
on a beautiful face,
but that one thing seems to be out of place.
Got a lot of issues,
not enough tissues!
But when enough is enough,
what do we all do?
We pack our stuff.
We get away.
We thank God,
we escaped yet another wedding day.
We pray.
Answers to prayer on a silver platter,
enough with the confusing head chatter!
We had more than enough to say to
deaf, dumb and blind lovers governed
by a too self-absorbed minion.
Abuse day after day,
so we get away.
Get away!
Get out the mind jail cell
today!
Get away!
Get away!
* * *
Realized my truth--
saw a brighter future.
I sat too long in false comfort
to avoid those emotional cries,
just wanted to believe those sweet, ugly lies.
God reminded me.
Oh yes he did!
God didn't want my soul dying
suffocated due to all that lying.
The pain he rid like a baby out
the crib...the pain he rid,
closed the devil's lid.

Godly Man
Man's righteous spiritual self
wouldn't respond to Krampas/elf, nor
the turkey, the tinsel, or the father named Time.
He wouldn't be mixed up in all sorts of crime.
No demon could reside within
causing him to commit any sins--
instead it would be out and about
waiting for the next opportunity to create doubt.
But man got his vision back!
Memories came flooding in
arranged like a card stack.
A spirit found peace
when he stopped thinking in terms of increase
the prosperity gospel had to cease--
didn't see the lasting benefit
his money never did sit--had his share of fits.
The minister and his money were misfits.
We get sucked into lies when we are weak
sometimes we put God in a back seat.
Then wonder why we face defeat.
Heard the stories of men and saw the glories of kin.
God's love letter impacted, made men feel better!
