Stimulus Plan

Sin ravaged world free falling into emptiness and doom Tentacled false cliffs of wealth on time's bluff: Images of illusion, shrivelled leaf after morning's bloom Messiah annexed from dream and devotion, Ultimate giver of life and love, urging us through the fall Latent in our secular aspiration, to reach beyond Upward falling on bended knees, the templed trumpet call Sovereign Master, I walk on water, as you bid. Pilate's response was to wash his bloody hands, poor he Leached of love so freely given, cannot prevent Atonement for my way to heaven ... I have tasted glory Nature and Word transforming desires in me.

You are so brilliant about writing your poetry dealing with God the Father and the Son that anybody could be intrigued with them. It flows so brilliantly while telling the Truth. I love acrostics and your poem flowed to the point that you didn't know or care what word it was spelling out. Brilliant!

the poet made me think of a Great leader ~ who came through time and could see all the sins of his own and of the world and through understanding of a greater good he was changed~

I also have little or no faith in the stimulus plan - I don't believe that the current situation we are in is one we will be able to buy our way out of - Wonderful Acrostic - God Bless, MJ

This is beautiful! What a wonderful acrostic. I really like the"...Upward falling on bended knees..." What a wonderful image. How nice it would be if falling up was as easy as falling down. Love you, friend. Keep the good words flowing. (smiling)
