Political Foolishness!
Democrat/Republican? USA can't you see? God is saying "Look up! and pay attention to me!" They are only humans and both full of flaws! Puffed up with ego's while creating man's laws. I am Creator! All will answer to Me! I am Maker of them, earth and the sea! I gave mankind freewill to make their own choice. But if you want...

Foolish Crowd
There are a lot of mysteries, anomalies and such, things that seem to have no explanation why they are. One of these (above the rest) that makes me wonder much - is how the foolish crowd is made of people who are far from being foolish on their own. Yes, people who are good. Yet somehow when they’re in...

Premium Member Why Should I Doubt
Why should I doubt, why should I fear When Jesus my High Priest is near? Would He desert His blood-bought child And let him sink in sin defiled? Has He not love and grace combined With power and wisdom sweetly twined? So would He leave me to decay If I neglect sometimes to pray? How much more faithful He than I, When sometimes I...

Ships of foolishness
My Ship sails on a stormy sea thrown by the winds of anger I was dumped on the yellow sand I am the lonely one Ships of foolishness you were a pique of a dream Chevron skies gives way to understanding in the last light to devine a course of freedom ...

Into Piles
What in the world are we doing? Who are we trying to beat? It seems like we live our lives running, as if we are losing our seats. We never stop building up towers. We never stop spinning around. We never stop piling up into piles everything that we’ve torn down. Is it that we are pursuing happiness, like the old phrase? Or are we...

Premium Member Antimony Foolishness
Antimony Foolishness Age 51 is often when one’s unable, To buy the status quo, it’s old and needs mending. New sports car, how youthful! Refuting the label, Of premature old age, gray hair pending. Girl friends need to be added to the stable, Young women, their company lending, Immortal aura when sharing their bar table. What invokes “against aloneness”, or “befriending”? You’ll find...

Premium Member The Foolishness of Man
Many assert “there is no God,” to escape obeying His Word. Wanting to avoid God’s control, They place their ego in the role. Flaunting the authority of God, they become victims of Satan’s fraud, living their lives chasing rabbits, and get trapped by slavish habits. Instead of enjoying freedom, reality feels like a prison. Ridding themselves of the Divine Czar leaves men to wonder who they...

The Recantation of Foolishness
Before I became a worrier, a rebel, a Spartacus: I remember listening to an orator on a city bus: he criticized and enraged some arrogant characters; he shouted harsh words to the deceiving charlatans, exposing themselves as hallowed saints in a niche, when they should have been thrown into a ditch! Before I attempted to please others, I realized how naive...

Klaus is a ravening louse WHO is his edict-ing house Where he whips errant fantasy out There he acts world bell-weather Strutting and foaming of mouth His offering Though's really small A magnifier; here is the call.' The maiden did shout What's the slug all about? So he slid through a crack in the wall...

Premium Member Foolish Man's Plight
Spending money on a worthless doodad Caught his eye like a red-blinking light, Reminded him of something he never had Spending money on a worthless doodad. Later, buyer’s remorse made him feel bad Too late, he realized a foolish man’s plight, Spending money on a worthless doodad Caught his eye like a red-blinking light. Too late, he realized a foolish man’s plight It’s money...
