Best And So Forth Poems

Just how did the whole thing befall?
What was there before that?
And before even that?
And so on and so...

You know sailor man,
You woke the spirit in me
I thought you were drunken and carefree
I could not hope or dream
The whore of the seas must take her place
I was of the lowest cast
The lowest morale
After you
I was with a baby you see
I had to run...

My life hasn't been easy 
I've experienced much pain. 

As a young child, I had a some- 
what of a normal childhood.

came from a two-parent home. 

I knew I was loved, but they 
weren't perfect.  

They had...

scared and excited about something in the dark
coyotes or deer or maybe just their own shadows.

It makes me think of ‘Hate Speech’
laying in bed wishing I could get back to sleep.

I think how I...

First there was oblivion, before emptiness began
Then everything grew from a (dot) and so forth into man
Using reverse extrapolation, large brains, and a plan 
Intelligent beings worked this out, as only they can

Logic itself explains two plus two, if you do the math
Belief invokes a...

On the Trans-West Africa High way we drove
Thoughts of decades we carried 
Rich history to be unfolded
Beautiful sights of trees and mountains we view
Hail God’s creation
For his handiwork is perfect
Stories of the Liberian camp at Buduburum were unravelled
How we drove through the hush villages of...

if only
one could
program 
a computer module
put it into a sugar coated capsule 
swallow it 
and be updated

you could also

become pregnant
and so forth

you could also
give them to your friends 
as gifts
and program them 
accordingly...

Is it the wreckage of a wasted life or the beauty of Zion?

Creating and destroying; so on and so forth
Life continues, chaotic, steadfast in it's course

The order of all things is beyond our control
The wonderful earth, the...

I can not understand now passion with a man without love,
This happened when I got to know the big guy up above,
Many Christians are still lost in sexual sin for some reason,
Still having sex without love like they are in the milky season.

I have seen...

who harassed, harangued, and so forth
  Reports had been filed
  evidence compiled
She is 'net restricted henceforth...
