The Gospel According to Jacob Hiegentlich

In a bar forgotten by the calendar,
where clocks had no tails
and time knelt with its head bowed,
a man of royal blood ordered a gin,
and Jacob, bartender and poet,
offered him both the gin — and his heart.

There was no light in that place,
but they lit up the dark.
Like a birth beneath the earth,
like two candles flickering
in

Genesis 29

over 2 years have past now.
i serve my time everyday,
not knowing my offence. 

i work everyday to meet your needs.
how long lord, how long….
my beautiful Rachel.

i am not Jacob in this story,
i stand the place of Esau,
what was mine taken by Jacob.
still i will suffer for Rachel,
for the love that once burned hot in winter.

jacob and his guitar

Jacob and his guitar sat down on magestic mars
strummed their tune to the delight of the stars
the earth got silent, her orange showing through
he was adorable, sincere, melodic, and innocent true.

Jacob

A wrestling River
has run its cause
A quick recce
and all is sorted
Be not a Miner or mariner
for promises they cannot meet

The spite of the bitter leaves
up to the knee 
With a scheming
and storm in a teacup
I was thinking too fast
With a sinking of peculiarities underscored
Jacob has drawn my blood
but with a wink and a guile

Jacob

In quiet nights I feel the space
Where laughter danced now leaves a trace.

Your smile a light that used to shine
A bond so strong forever mine.


Though time has passed and you are gone
In every heart your spirit’s drawn.

I search for you in whispered sighs
In dreams that weave through starry skies.


You may not share my blood or

Jacob was Whisked Away by Aliens

Jacob was minding his orchard the other day
When snickeroo snackeroo he was snatched away
The apples said “Dang! Those aliens don’t play!”
Whisked into a spaceship, taken beyond the Milky Way

His faithful dog was the only one to tell the tale to his wife Kay
She did not fully understand his hound, Old Yeller Gray
But had the feeling

Ladder of Jacob

7/11/23


As a new day comes
Had to find out what I'm truly made of
In a world full of fake love
That's the  I hate cuz
One of the reasons I'd take drugs
And always stay drunk
Getting closer to climbing the ladder of Jacob
Already been up eight rungs
All of it paid none

Unsure of what I'm destined
All that's left is

Poker

All cards are on the table
Esau holds kings and queens
His secular greatness is swift
Many chiefs reign in Edom

Jacob draws but two's and three's
His family lags behind in Egypt
Becoming slaves to Pharaoh
Is God playing the losing hand?

Small beginnings deceive
Spirtual greatness comes later
Demanding patience and faith
Until His Royal Flush appears

Jesus holds the Key of David
He is worthy

Glue of Goshen

My dreams became galling
To my fratricidal brothers
My father's favor appalling
Birthed from different mothers

"The master of dreams is coming."
Down the cistern they tossed me
Their plan to kill me numbing
My dreams engulfed in irony

Reuben discouraged their plan
They sold me to a caravan
My father instead reaps deceit
"Wild beasts he could not defeat."  

From Dothan to Egypt I

A Jacob Wolf Lady I'D Like To Be

If I had a chance to be
Any book celebrity
It would be easy to choose
There is no way I could lose
Twilight would have to be the one
I would have a lot of fun
Being a big and sweet "puppy"
Would make me feel so lucky
Just don't mess with those I love
Or I will be very tough
Turning into a

Creator of the people of  colours. 
We pray to You on the mountains
We pray to You in the valleys 
We pray to You on the seas 
You are our Father.

Kiss of Wisdom Blocked By God

I could prove a point thought misbegotten,
For long years packaged as Flatly Rotten,
I myself judged a spiritual loser;
Indeed, an Abhorrent option chooser!

But why, God had said so: "Esau I hate."
So, all his damned mistakes had flowed from Fate
"What's my birthright to me now that I'm dead?"
One, who just in the morning, had not fed!

"Right, agreed,

Remember Jacob

REMEMBER JACOB

what is normal?
i’m back to it
with my back
to the negativity
a smile securely
in place, in place of
the fog that was raging,
raging strong…
fighting me (how
do you fight an entity -
you cannot see).
i pray, i pray
through day and night
night and day.
remember Jacob
wrestled
even with God -
he wanted a blessing.
a blessing i’ll take
but the enemy i leave
behind.
the enemy is
