Skies fall, expect the weather change.
Look-see the atmosphere when strange.
Heads-up for fate’s rearrange.
Don’t blink, hearken an abrupt change;
For water’s deep…home on the range.
Earth’s writhing in interchange.

There is a moon stuck inside the stoplight
A still unblinking gaze controlling blood tides
Circulatory system like New York City in the seventies
The thrashing of my tire fire heart led
To the tribute of an overzealous blood tithe
With the buzzing of the latch relay circuit
Night and day, the cosmic light switch clicks
Itself into place, there is no dusk or dawn
We are burdened to tread in the interchange
We are a gathering of werewolves, in need
Of a blood moon, craving catharsis and hope
There is no time to pencil in a reverie
A daily scene, like a living nightmare
Turning us into cybernetic lycanthropes

between waking and sleeping
or dreaming and deep sleep state
where are we when the tumbler falls

embrace the darkness
for it knows the light
squeeze and hug the clasp
untangle threads of false caress
hold on to the journey
take a seat on the ride
then pull the clutch
release and cuddle up
kiss away lost connection
align shadows and lustre

Light and darkness swing
Turn by turn they hide
Yet at dawn and dusk
Hues intermingling
They collaborate
Sleep to waking
Gap within change
Void of stillness
No thought at play
In silence
In the void
No mirror
Then thus
We do
Be

Jesus Christ incarnate became a man
lived on this earth thirty and three years
showed to all who and what is God
faced man's opposition and all his smears
This Jesus the God-man took on our flesh
faced temptations just like us but overcame
showed life in all it's fullness by far
in that as well taking all our blame
Going to the cross as our substitute
paid for all our sins on His body on the tree
this was salvations price He paid to His father
so that His ransomed could go free
The great interchange Jesus came to do
taking our righteousness this for His very own
placing His pure garments upon us HIs elect
such merciful grace for our sins He did atone
Having Christ's spirit now within us
we can show Him to all who are lost
being of His character in words and deeds
showing to all redemptions great cost
Quote: “It is only because he became like us that we can become like him.” ? Dietrich Bonhoeffer. (1906- 1945) Christian Pastor.

I can't tell you what to think,
for your thoughts are
exclusively yours,
and they are elusive.
They come and go as they please.
With it's complexities,
It comes whenever it likes,
overloading your head
with it's multiple waves to create
and recreate your being.
It's rhythmic interchange
balances everything concerning you.
I cannot tell you how or what to feel,
your feelings are exclusively yours.
Both your thoughts and your feelings
are quite interwoven.
Manifesting as emotionally motivated thoughts,
or thoughtfully motivated emotions,
all working in synergy to bring a
perfect union.
The paths you walk,
the things you do generates them.
Only you can draw
the map of your inner life.
Though the understanding
of it eludes you.
But the path you choose to walk
is eternally exclusively yours.
It leads you to that place of your rebirth.
It may be peaceful.
Your printout may be chaos.
This design is your very own,
created by you.
But in all,
only you have the power to change it,
and make it right.
