Looking Up the Heavens

For my pals did led me thus; For feel I need a touch On earth I did been On who Will I be comfort Sought A lone Tunnel But dim Its Led Me Still Then I recall my Memory verse off from these locust years Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. Then I made away my plight this crazy days like garment worn on me Heb twelve thus: For in needs no tunnels, no dark my shines even the streets are made of gold Where God seats of the throne And the angel cry holy holy to Him only And the Lord Jesus seated at right hand side His majesty For there all hope should stay cos its away the fake drains Earth made. For there neither buying nor selling so foreign exchanges Neither schooling so no lecture goes thus No social media, like fb no twitter, no LinkedIn all no pinging Where peace meet the saint far on high No elections so no rigging No sickness no autopsy, no vaccine, no antidote No colour so no race That where my hope is That where am looking Looking up the heaven Where the angels sing no blues, no jazz, no calypsos, no pop, no reggae, no afro beat But holy songs forever truly pure quietness thereby. This screwed up years mind only on high Where worries are drain caked This screwed up years Were all troubles turn sorrow 5/23/2020
