POETRY CHURCH

Not to belittle the real Church of God Not to belittle the real benefits of communion Not to belittle kneeling and praying for a miracle Not to belittle the laying of hands Not to belittle a good bear hug Not to belittle the hope of Christ’s return Not to belittle the Wrath of God Not to belittle the trials and tribulations of living Not to belittle delusions of grandeur Not to belittle the pain I feel Not to belittle wars and rumors of wars Not to belittle Global warming Not to belittle the great I AM Not to belittle the prophets of the Ages Not to belittle Buddha’s nonthought philosophy Not to belittle fairies in the flowers Not to belittle the sounds that Whale’s make Not to belittle the awe of a perfect Sunrise or Sunset Not to belittle the Man in the Moon Not to belittle Black Holes, Quasars and the immensity of the Universe Not to belittle microorganisms and viruses Not to belittle the glorious honey bee’s make Not to belittle the missing books in the Bible that women wrote Not to belittle the tear that trickles down my left eye Not to belittle sin and its impact on the human soul Not to belittle other people’s pain Not to belittle our belief that aliens are real Not to belittle my cat’s purring Not to belittle my neighbor’s beautiful lawn Not to belittle Superstar's getting rich, they deserve it Not to belittle being just a pawn Not to belittle the atrocities committed by Man Not to belittle feeling so alone in the Universe Not to belittle the pheromones of truth Not to belittle that The End is always near Not to belittle truth from the mouth of babes Not to belittle Bhai's attempt to unite religions Not to belittle the Sufi’s dance Not to belittle the Witch’s brew Not to belittle the Medicine of the Drum Not to belittle my belief in Pan Not to belittle the Heavy Metal screams Not to belittle pipe dreams and cold sweats Not to belittle the glow worm’s glow Not to belittle the lion’s roar Not to belittle when the earth quakes Not to belittle when volcano’s blow Not to belittle my belittling thots but Poetry Church is all I got.

Not to Belittle Praying For a Miracle, but this hit me in my spirit because I just got on my knees to pray a position I hardly ever take in prayers. I love the flow and the message. Stay blessed.

Yes! all of your poetry exudes inclusiveness. Love this one in particular. Gutsy to stay with the repetition. Church is exactly where we sit when we tap into that stream of elusive consciousness and pray for the first word.

So cool! Love how some of your lines are serious and weighty things and others are flippant. I want to be a member! This is so unique and I absolutely love it...fav! Xo

Hmmm? In my opinion, you should get a free membership for being Best New Poet there for a while. You should ask administration via email them.
