Love's Greatest Costs Are Pangs of Deepest RemorseLove's Greatest Costs Are Pangs Of Deepest Remorse
Life is not all love, sweet fun and joyous games
nor pure enjoyment seeing dawn's early rise.
Sometimes it may be our deeds revealed that shames
and cost us dearly, our heart's most precious prize.

Freedom At All CostsEven should a mother forget
but she cannot
but even if she could
God has sent His mother
to hold the bloodied limbs
in her arms
just as she held God’s humanity
in the folds of her dress
when all had been done.
Her altar of flesh
prepared His Body to rise.
She is there, too,
in...

Transport CostsIts My car
Thousands of miles together we travelled
maps then a sat nav journeys unravelled
collected all sorts, even went to the tip
bus into town, no in the car I'll just nip
MOT services tax, insurance as well
paying the bills down to me it all fell
Now at the...

Ballad
Calculating Costs of Hate CrimesWherein lies the great dividing moral distinction
between hate crimes of socioeconomic historic proportion
and multicultural perpetuation,
and the more mundane population of defiance crimes
of a more personal nature?
Why is society's right to aggressively imprison unto nutritional neglect,
to kill and maim in just vengeance of angry sociopathic retribution,
politically...

Costs of FreedomThe value of individual freedom
seems impossible to quantify
without at least knowing,
What is this freedom for?
What is this freeing political and economic purpose?
Will my freedom
and your egalitarian
side by side
sometimes competitive
sometimes cooperatively multi-sided
liberty
liberate us to live in robust wealth
of interdependent multicultural health?
Is this individual freedom's disvalue
to die...

Respect Costs MoneyLooking back in retrospect
Previous owners were circumspect
Not meaning harsh disrespect
But years of neglect
And upkeep gone unchecked
Amount much to the domino effect
Our new architect
With his cryptic dialect
And superior intellect
Presents his bold new project
Structural troubles to correct
Existing building to protect
Proud addition to erect
For...

Recounting Wounding CostsI know what it costs
to parent a tyrant
24/7
52 weeks/year
and yet avoid judging,
feeling guilty,
self-blaming shame
for all I am not sufficient,
yet.
I remember learning curious distinctions
between genuine remorse
given, when LeftBrain verbally requested,
yet without RightBrain capacity
to feel even the least caring difference
between natural brown girl
and spiritual white light...

Love Costs EverythingLove Costs Everything
To love another person
more than yourself costs you a lot
but to love the Lord as He deserves
costs you everything you’ve got.
For His love was not selfish
His love was certainly not cheap
His love came to deliver us
and He said that the price He paid...

Don'T Offer God Anything That Costs You NothingIn order for us to redeem the time we need to give God our best
and be willing to do all He asks as proof of where our faith rests

in offering all...

At All Costsits filthy in here; bodies litter the floor

the need is what brought us all to this place
In our desperation our morals...

At All Costs7/15/17
Picking up the pace, instead of lagging
Focused on me, not when others are nagging
And continually bragging
No matter if the scales are tilted or even
Following through on what I believe in
During every season
In any region
Using logic and reason
Below the stars, moon and sun
I've got to get...
