Preacher Man

the crazy preacher man 
he speaks
to me
I and the crowd
hypnotised
confused
and squinting
his shadow stands
before the sun
his silver words 
are slivering
forth from ancient nets  
fisher of men
gathering
it may be so
maybe it was
ever so
and so 
some say
it may well
ever be
yet know ye this
that nothing new 
shall ever stand 
against the sun 
and speak as He

it takes courage to tell others of God in this way, i see people in town telling of Jesus and its amazing, i write poetry and songs but takes more courage to preach on the streets
