James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Rhyme

Holy Father--

Holy Father
Once upon midnight prayerful
The purposeful pontifical priesting
Holy Father
while I pondered, discipline and careful
I discovered the believers
I crave the evangelic, exegetical evangelism
I crave the sacerdotal, sorrowful scriptures
Holy Father
I came believing
Deep into that darkness preaching
The Pentecostals came impeaching
As of someone gently speeching, speeching
Eagerly I looked for the contemplative
The solemn sermon sidetracking
My mind always strays to unbelievers
Help me be an overcomer
And not to be a bother
Holy Father
I heard a humanistic, unrushed exonerating
I heard an apostolic, ruminative legislating
Death shall bring souls
And the individual never upholding
Deep into that darkness extolling
I felt compelled to sniff the scriptures
Much I marvelled this devotionalist partial
While I pondered, subtotal and impartial
The melancholic mammon moralizing
My mind always strays to saints
Can't help it
And so I screamed, 'Is that an eldership?'
'It's that bible,' I muttered
An echo murmured back the word, 'scriptures!'
Help me, help me
Holy
Holy Father
