The Street Evangelist

THE STREET EVANGELIST

There is a new dark shroud of wintry mass,
Covering the hidden beauty of the land.

It emanates from a deceptive layer 
Of smooth-honeyed words which stroke
Their spiteful way into artless minds,
Hearing with open conduits. 

The charlatan, dressed up 
As a worthy preacher, 
Smirks through his enticing act 
Of treachery, no one, listening 
Except the

Unlucky Evangelist

His self-perception as master
Has stuck like a sticky plaster
Just like Reggae to the Raster
And prized spaghetti to Pasta …

Now, ahead of our church pastor
In spreading our Christ like Castor
His knowledge of Theology Vast
His reaching of Bible Verse fast …

To many An Overlooked Star,
Because eyes do not grab The Far;
Hence, it’s been an obscurity 
And a

The Telly-Evangelist

He could turn a Spring day
into ash and brimstone.
His wife zealously practiced adultery.
She would join him at the pulpit,
her blond hair glowing like a halo.
She loved his money religiously.
He was a bible thumping man of God,
but his cable show was rocked by scandal.
when a car salesman ran off with his angel,
for many of us it

Premium MemberThe Plight of the Evangelist

Pity the poor evangelist.
He must always be so perfect.
Not for him the downcast brow,
For fear of it's effect,

On those that he may chance to meet,
Who know of his profession.
A man like him must always greet,
A critical procession.

For friend and foe he must remain,
A beacon in the sky,
To sing his song with glad refrain,
And never dare

Rain On Tin Roof: What Are You Thinking 2

I
The first time: "magic," they say
Then taken for granted, almost alway
Music from above
Now unnoticed
Except that first time

II
So, craft every time as "the first time"
And often ... "The Last Time,"
As we live this human experiment of be-ing
LISTEN, O do listen. Rain music, too,
Without a tin roof, harder in auditing
Missing magnificence

III
Human instruments, as in tin roof drums

General Evangelist

B-irthday of the General Evangelist 
I-s remembered by the brethren; 
E-arly fifteenth of June, 
N-ew dawn has just broken. 

S-peaker of the truth, 
A-nd defender of the faith; 
N-ight and day he works 
T-o please the Lord so great. 
I-n spite of the tribulation, 
A-ll he hopes is the glorious bliss; 
G-od is the top

The Evangelist

The Evangelist

There comes a man, more cursed than not
Spiritually guided, or so he must be
To remind the children of things they forgot
Of the price of salvation and eternity
With the staff of moses he prods their coals
Embers of a fire that’s grown cold
A raging flame that had filled their souls
Like sheep scattered, gone from the fold
Through
