Defies Poems

It Lifts, Defies Gravity 

That great curving line
made of countless droplets
in shades of aquamarine
to showers of foaming white

it creates an opening
a cave where light can spin
then plummets down again
its passion has been spent

rolling gently to the shore
tumbling sand and shells
small remnant lives
then going back for more.

When Man Defies God

They tell me I can be whatever I choose—
That a man can become a woman,
That flesh can defy the hands of its Maker,
That truth is no longer truth but mere opinion.
Lies! Deception! Blasphemy!
Has the creation risen above the Creator?
Shall the clay rebuke the Potter,
Claiming He has made a mistake?
Oh, foolish generation, drowning in pride,
You shake your fists at heaven,
You mock the divine order,
You call good evil and evil good!
You corrupt the air with confusion,
You trample the sacred covenant of marriage,
You spit upon the wisdom of the Almighty
And call it enlightenment!
But hear this: God is not mocked!
His Word stands unshaken,
His law is eternal,
His judgment is sure.
Do you not tremble before Him?
Do you not fear the One who holds your breath?
You drink from the cup of rebellion,
And judgment waits at the door!
But still, His mercy calls
Turn back before the fire falls!
Repent before the wrath descends!
For He who made man and woman
Has called it good and will not be silenced!
Glory to the Most High
The Alpha, the Omega,
The Righteous one who was, who is, and who is to come!

For the woman who defies

Her audacity is worth trekking
She's weathered hell and high.
No other woman of her age
Has faced such trials.

In silence, she weeps,
A mountainous pain
Nobody dares to listen,
no one has walked her shoes:
it's bone-chilling.

She discover herself amidst the pain,
A spark that ignites her soul.
Forged in struggle, she's reborn,
Rising higher and stronger.

She Defies Every Doubt

She defies every doubt
I must not betray her trust
Those long legs of hers

This is above feeling
Anything that we know
It is not what you do
Being nice for a show
Never what is keeping
You all good and well
It is not that secret
No one will ever tell
Does not think itself
Better than any other
It is the last energy
Gravity will discover
