Premium Member The Endgame

The endgame 

And the cemetery was
nowhere to be found
yet was so present
in the shallow depth
the graveyard of the mind

No tombstone unturned
fragmented torn and twisted 
sorrow flowing down 
encrypted alleyways 
and Thanatos’ call 

Searching to imprint
coffin’s nails on seams 
of muddy icy prison
hammered chiselled avenues
creeping through and in

Dead alive and collocated
hell firing place and time
scorching cementing
looming crossing overs
to where and when to how

No monument just
monumental nothing
void oppression
endless loop’s demise
thoughts emotions dragging

Torrential thunders
roping in electrocuted lightning
nooses from the tree of
living emptied darkness
flowing rapids standing still

The cemetery awaiting
ashes urns and vultures
presiding over Ganges Styx
Caron caring like a
lifeless Buddha saddened

Giving taking suffering
unthreading tapestry graffiti 
splashing on the canvass
sombre art in progress
oscillating back and forth

The reaper harvests harshly
the mindless soul and body
crumbling bones infested
carbons desiccation apathy
hedonistic pleasures dull extinct

Gravitation nudges wild
and gently roaring
culling sculls foreclosing scooping
offerings burthens memories
premature un-furbished epitaphs 

Silent roaring rampant syncopal 
admonished synergetic resolution
teasing fool and morbid jester
luring loosening resolve
apprehending lithographic scribes

And the cemetery blinding
obvious and for the taking 
present not yet for embrace
remains a silhouette on the horizon
and life for now is stronger

Suddenly, I heard some promoting
My passion is the downstream encouragement
And the incentives never stimulating
That moment my soul grew pushing things going my way confessing
Blessings
The exhortation seemed happy ambushing
And its eyes have all the apprehending
'It's that contentment,' I muttered bliss containment
I discovered the graces within the distance
Instead I uncovered the lure
What could there be more purely sure?
That moment my soul grew pushing things going my way confessing
Blessings
I heard a heavenly, driving stalling
The aura smiled
That moment my soul grew pushing
I discovered the graces
I discovered the graces
I am encouraged and confessing my , blessings

Premium Member Lord God, You Are My Sovereign Preacher

September 8 Relationship to God Bible Meditations Based on Matthew 11-13

Key Verse – Matthew 11:1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY SOVEREIGN PREACHER			

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher 
always asserting Your truth, perfectly right
Thank You for saving me by Your Gospel that expresses eternal life’s delight
Midst worldly forces I must overcome by Your Scriptures’ insight
While instilling in my heart Your Word of divine light.

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher 
always affirming Your prophecy
Thank You for Your upholding me toward faith’s fervency
Midst heavy burdens challenging my spiritual consistency
While rebuking my doubts and unbelief’s persistency.

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher 
always attesting Your law
Thank You for guarding me with Your mercy against guilt’s claw
Midst false doctrines espoused by those who are out-law
While protecting my soul, sanctifying my iniquity-flaw.

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher 
always ascertaining Your judgment
Thank You for teaching me to maximize Your offered ministry involvement
Midst lurking discontentment that hinders my commitment
While propelling my dedication for great commission engagement.

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher 
always assuring Your forgiveness
Thank You for pardoning me in confessing my sinfulness
Midst arrogant behavior disclosing my haughtiness
While cleansing my heart from wickedness and filthiness.

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher 
always advancing Your kingdom
Thank You for allowing me to learn from Your wisdom
Midst earthly vanity bringing futile boredom
While letting me participate in Your work with spiritual freedom.

Lord God, You are my Sovereign Preacher
always apprehending deceit by Your fire of revival 
Thank You for correcting me of my foolish survival
Midst skeptical mockery against Your imminent arrival
While checking my lifestyle according to Your approval.

Premium Member Aging In and Out

As I age 
I hope to become increasingly difficult 

to extract from flow of Presence
apprehending EarthMother focus 
through holistic reflections
within Now

Without targeting Others 
over There
lacking CoPresence.

I hope ego-awareness shrinks 
within aging 
cranial carrying 
mindbodies

To swell without 
toward ecstatic soul
comprehensive understanding,
co-infested stand-and-grabbing

To more easily let go 
of my now eldering past events
yellowing oranged brown falling away leaves 
of absent grace

To grab ahold
of bold winter's regenerations
of green-full hope,.

Prehensive linking
syncing resonant peace 
engaging Earth JustUs
rooted ancient systems

Free-flowing through boundaried paradigms
dividing seasons 
into tipping pointed reasons 
for circling
deepening peak
yet widening spectral valleys
echoing Other's resounding exclamations

Fading
failing bipolarized dissonance
becoming dipolar co-arising
resonance

Confident this curious TaoWay 
through resiliently polycultured Midway
seasons and surfs
at last expounding
plantings and pullings
rebirthing our final say

Fusing octaves of sight and sound
fizzing fractal note conduction
musing slow-grown co-redeemers 

Risking final opportunity
to refill treasured seeds
sown and reaped 

Cherished bodymind's rich pot
ential,
outial
post-axial cross

Over space
and under time's harvest 
reimagining memory's branching place 
for rooted earnest fortune

Racing thoughts
increasingly aged difficult 

To extract from co-presents
of EarthJustUs time 
sufficient for grace 
repurposed peaceful space.

Premium Member Reverse Psychology


    The girl ‘ Miss No’ born stubborn ! Since childhood 
     always acted prompt on intransigence.
     Decisive, contradicted , but not rude.
     Obstinate and not to be influenced.

   Apprehending her opposite reactions,
    Parents, free to contradict their own advice
    suggested just opposite instruction. 
    She followed their real wishes, acted nice.
      
    So comfortable on confrontation ,
    Each time showed aggression, as observed, 
     never went on easy interaction .
     Getting maturity , she fell in love.

     About her love, fiance had no doubt,
     but he understood well her ideology.
     If he expressed his love, he would be out,
     so applied reverse psychology.

      Not right to go for direct proposal.
       Better to choose opposite direction.
       Otherwise he would get straight refusal.
       Girl went to meet him on invitation.

       Being bold the guy told’ I am leaving town.
       Further, our relation, not to carry . I’m sorry.'
       Instantly she gave stern look, making frown
       and said' I won't allow : This is the time ! We will marry. '

Premium Member Death's Enigmatic Reality

Cessation of life yon mortality~~~
death of reality's enigma reigns
haunting minds for answers against "why?" 
confronting hearts along queries of "where?"

Baby's only-one-second breath on earth~~~
bursts with survival agonizing cry
lingering midst glow for existence-hope
apprehending womb around love's fortress...

Child's departure toward what's eternal~~~
leaves gloom seeing gift that can never bloom
or guilt beholding loss despite nurture
and feeling of doom for hurt, tears can't heal...

Young lassie's sudden demise inflicts angst~~~
while lad's accident brings panic attack
with prevailing sighs for early exits
inviting skeptical thoughts to rise...

Dressing up my Mother in her casket~~~
I knew that I would miss her warm embrace
but such should be faced with glad acceptance
along memories, always to prevail...

Clasping Dad's hand while at his death bed
letting go was what I did, letting God
not being religious, but feeling blest
that I was there when he gave his last breath...   

Unfathomable, yet death* is so real~~~
poetry can explore with depth and sense
and here am I, grateful for wondrous chance
to write about it, while enjoying life.

*Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Premium Member Great Escape

Geared by God, greeting gracious glow 
Ready is my spirit for rejuvenation revival
Empowered to exalt Him with praise ecstasy 
Ascending against apprehending arrogance
Triumphant toward thanksgiving trust.

Extricated from exhausting selfish expedition
Settled is my soul, secured by the Saviour
Chained and clasped around His clemency 
Attaining faith-affirmed service approval  
Pursuing heavenly profits, perfectly precious
Exchanging the ephemeral for the eternal*.  

1Peter 5:10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
