Follower of Christ
Here's a story of a man
Who fought many battles of the mind
He made one mistake
And started to fall behind
Wounds of the soul took physical form
Unusual wounds not of the norm
Slashes on his arm, his shirt is torn
Blood on his face, his jeans are worn
He walks...

Never Be a Follower
never be a follower 
of others but instead 
by a follower of your 
own heart´s desires 
creating your own rules 
for personal success 
never allowing others to 
diminish your self worth 
only you can judge you 
accurately no one else can 
no one else knows...

Portrait of a Leader and a Follower
Bound by my hands,
And fastened to a chair,
You say, “We’re friends.”
You say, “Stay there.”

Sunlight blinds my eyes.
Through the open window,
I hear cries.
You say, “I hear nothing.”

You shut the shade
And tape my eyelids 
Open, while a movie plays
On a large, wide, white screen.

You say, “This is...

"Will someone please answer!"
I scream and I Shout,
I'm trapped in this hole
And there is no way out!

Will someone, anyone find me?
I'm stuck in the abyss.....
who ever said that ignorance was bliss?

Never seen sunlight, nor moon in the sky.
All I can do is lay here and...

Follower - Revised
I was a follower
A coward,
 
Just trying to fit in
In this busy, busy empire
 
Then I met a person,
who believed she had it all
not in the bad way, as you would suppose
 
She gave me some advice,
Can you guess what it was?
 
Simple and plain,
Just...

One Follower At a Time, Part Iii
...One night when he was compiling
a list of wisdom that the prophet said,
he heard, in the darkness, his name spoken,
in a harried voice that would frighten the dead.

He turned, and from the shadows out stepped
Kel’vid the mason, sire of Dehlarain,
in one hand he held a...

One Follower At a Time, Part Ii
...But with no drink to bring them enjoyment,
more folks went down to the music halls,
finding relief in the soft swoon of strings
that echoed out from within crafted walls.

It soon became so very popular
that many didn’t come around to pray,
they’d rather listen to frivolous tunes
then the...

One Follower At a Time, Part I
When Pelchag first head of the new prophet
he didn’t give it all that much real thought,
some merchant claimed that on a cliff-top
by a trio of angels he’d been taught

what God desired of his mortal children,
what sinful ways of mankind must now end,
but this prophet was...

Most effective teachers
are perpetually curious students.

Most accomplished chefs
have voracious appetites
for nutritional taste
and nurturing fragrance.

Most resilient lovers of here and now life
have known and felt hate and anger
for what they were and are not
what they could want themselves to become
cooperative truth and beauty passionately enough.

Most astute...

Premium Member A Leader Can Never Be a Stolid Follower
A leader is, of course, solid not a blind follower
A leader is a true, real, genuine and patient analyzer
A leader usually leads the pack or the caucus
Follows common sense, the rules and laws of nature
Comprehends the consequences of having a failed procedure
The full process of...

Premium Member The Follower
He stalks through the dark streets and lanes
looking, searching for a victim
seeing a likely women he follows
for days he watches her routine

Once satisfied he makes his plans
then sets aside all he will need
tomorrow is when he will act
he takes pleasure thinking on it

The following night...

The Cup-Bearer's Thoughts
I serve with my heart, all
Your mountain must not fall
We meet servant and master
To run forward the faster

Your goal clearly defined
Mine too more refined
Leader and follower united now
To testify of forgiveness, the how

Why this unlikely pair?
Cause of a God just and fair
I serve before kings
Who...
