Going Back To the Drawing Board

The best way to proceed after a blunder 
Is to begin again and make it better.

Looks good on paper 
                 Any practicality 
                 Just calligraphy

Back To the Drawing Board

B-ack to the drawing board, 
O-verhaul the system; 
B-egin to start once more, to avoid any mayhem.

M-ake another new plan
O-f action if you fail; 
I-ntroduce fresh products, 
S-oar to increase your sale. 
E-arly twenty-fifth of August, you haven't received reward; 
S-tand up and think again, go back to the drawing board.


Back To the Drawing Board

The ignominy of buying and 
selling 
Is disgustingly despicable 
The church of God 
Has lost its taste 
Its flavour diminished 

The worldly purview 
Is warming its way into the 
church 
Money is the order of the day 

The taxonomy has to change 
So as not to bring the name of 
God 
Into disrepute.... 

The drawing board we must 
go 
Checkmating ourselves...so 
this excesses will not condemn 
us 
By not giving to ceasar what 
belongs to ceasar 

In Gods presence 
You reverence Him in its 
entirety 
Not hiding under the backdrop 
Of christian resource materials 
being sold 

Let's change and digress from 
this sinful way 
Before change changes us

Back To the Drawing Board

Lost in my own sorrow
can't even keep a friend
My constant source and window
just slammed in my face
Chalk lines and smudge marks
travel across my face
I just wish to be held
and someone to hear my fears
Anxiety builds
and screws with my mind
One more day and everything
will most likely be fine
