Notes About The Poem

Image result for picture of I am not man

~I am not a man, but I am
I am not present tense, but I am here
I am all that I am
I am what I am, I am not just a MAN~
       <jelsr>

I Am Not----

I am not a man, but I am
I am not present tense, but I am here
I am all that I am
But I’m not Popeye
Been to the waters
But not Baptist

What can I do
When will my life be due
And how may I choose

I am not bad, but I’m a sinner
I am not evil, yet been forgiven
I am all that I am
But I’m not Brutish, yet I’m a brute
I’m in pains but not hurt
Been cleanse even though I’m in the dirt
What can I do
When will my life be due
And how may I choose
I am all that I am
I am not a man, but I am
I am not present tense, but I am here
No longer displaced, disgraced
Was lost now found in  His
Amazing Grace
