Realities As Poetry Gems

Lingering scenes hide in my subconscious Vie for favor vicariously precious… Soul that struggles against human nature Contends to glow toward spotlight feature… Hypocrisy keeps lurking amidst pride Brags along false humility’s long stride… Grievous regrets expose frustration pain Leave heart in agony against joy-reign... Repentance* that I neglect to express well Faith's spirit basks in God’s miracle-swell.
*Romans 2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? October 10, 2022
