Notes About The Poem
I wite this against the current world backdrop of war unrest claims of right
And wrong from Afrikaans suffering to the historical suffering of even older Native
Populations throughout there and the world.' As re-hashing of past events causes
More suffering.' The 'only way' is new life through Jesus Christ.'
To forgive, and to live'
To live and forgive' to turn from hate..That insitant suggestion.' Raking your memory, insinuating that
All is fate..And every avenue, or road or track you might
Well travel.? Is full of twisted events in wait.' To steep
You still deeper in sorrow.' A heart of stone a dismissive
Mind seems the way to choose.? To throw away any hope
Of joy.' That way what can you loose? And in the deepest
Sense. Much of the above is true.' In this human world
We know..? Thats why we need to exit from such stony
Streets of woe.' Listen wisdom is calling.' As day and night
Fleet on.' Get you to the cross-roads; thats where she is
Standing strong.' Right where the skull is leering.' And darkness seems to win.' Fall now at the feet of Jesus.'
And be done with that burden of sin.'
