Cold War

The war it's cold with no signs of any ending, it's like adding another twenty years to a life sentence, even in the heat of the moment lies a cold kitchen, with lukewarm souls, in a dark prism, what's a prison to a free spirit, probably on the scale that some of us think we're worthy of Gods merits, here in the west we know nothing of true devastation, Christians over here see persecution as being verbally abused, the war is cold and that's what they claim their hearts are, but I know real saints who died for the cause real martyr's, and that's a real thug not the lames that holla thug life cuz they gotta brick and a sawed off, I wonder would you still die for ya block if they made you watch ya kids get their ligaments sawed off, the war is cold and everybody claim they gotta heart to match it, but wouldn't dare die for their comrades no full metal jacket, this cold war is heating up is enough ever enough, spiritual warfare is live and well enough bodies to fill up countless dump trucks, only the strong survive and by survive I mean live on in eternity, going threw hell on earth stepping outta that firery furnace with no wounds where the Messiah rains so fervently

Key Verse – Job 23:16 For God maketh my heart soft...

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY HEART CHECKER

Lord God, You are my heart Checker 
against bitter murmuring and groaning
Thank You for instructing me while leading me from declining
Surely answering my arguments with Your divine reasoning…
Please deal with me and my disputations that need truth-leaning.

Lord God, You are my heart Checker 
against vain longing and desiring
Thank You for covering me darkness of terrified fearing
Surely disciplining my carnality of worldly preferring…
Please soften me from hardship, persecution, suffering.

Lord God, You are my heart Checker 
against discontentment’s raging and surging
Thank You for letting me abide in Your will of revival charging
Surely enlightening my motives around Your freedom’s caging…
Please protect me against unbelief by deceit-discharging.

Surely feeding my soul with Your bounty’s pressing…
Please provide me as I share without hypocrisy’s cursing.

Surely purifying my thoughts from vain boasting…
Please remind me of Your love with Your redemption-granting.

Lord God, You are my heart Checker 
against helpless fretting and worrying
Thank You for helping me overcome struggles of futile wearying
Surely counselling my mind from faith-swaying…
Please develop me toward Christlikeness while in You I’m staying.

Lord God, You are my heart Checker 
against wrong choice of treading
Thank You for instilling in me Your precepts for gracious guiding
Surely enclosing my health with Your welfare-guarding…
Please settle me in partnership of stewardship’s upholding.

Remain Faithful To the End

Remain faithful to the end, 
Obeying the Father's will; 
Overcome the temptation
And the tricks of the devil.

Stay steadfast and firmly strong
Until the very last breath; 
Never be afraid to face
The persecution and death.

Always be dedicated
In serving the Almighty; 
When the clime is inclement, 
Weather the storm in the sea.

Don't stop glorifying God, 
Though life is so difficult; 
Never cease to praise His name, 
And ask to forgive your fault.

Quench not the Holy Spirit, 
Just wait, for Christ shall descend; 
Soon judgment day shall arrive, 
Remain faithful to the end.

Strikingly Crafty Logomaniac Presents

Strikingly crafty logomaniac presents...
what else... his trademark blatherskite!

While sprawled comfortably
numb upon davenport
Iowa daily dose of poetic mishmash,
thus yours truly couches, kneads, sports...
his imponderable matted
swiftly styled balderdash
noah intent to kindle
potential ark enemy, nor abash

please pardon your
garden variety philologos,
preparing himself for backlash
he spouts nonsense words
with chutzpah and brash
his logorrhea affliction begets
meaningless rot i.e. namely ishkabibble,
where scapegoated test dummies crash

inscrutably, dumbly, busily blankly
boxing, blinking, batting... eyelash
hijacking, flouting, disregarding... covenant,
not causing corpus callosum damage
basically self made edict equals hogwash,
within one North American banana republic
predicated upon fiat gnash
trumpets blatantly non subliminal,

subordinate, subtle... ho hum
messages cuz bosh to liberty we smash
with most popular refrain
"send her/him back" cash
hearing purported dispensable
deportee with swash-
buck killing bravado
marquee, where klieg lights
blindingly broadcast in a flash.

"FAKE" mania loosed doth stall
refugees, where desperation witnesses
land of milk and honey,
perhaps some heading to Broomall,
who if necessary crawl
escaping forced sex trafficking poverty,
persecution, violence... downfall,
viz puppet government

tricked out noble (no bull) border wall
configured as demilitarized zone
hostilility spewing noxious,
poisonous, venomous gall
courtesy commander in chief
who essentially hoops to forestall
his impeachment proceedings
bristling, ranting, scathing... twitter feeds

spewing bosh raining hatred filled squall
spouting jingoistic rhetoric
atop anointed hall
of the mountain king
eerily similar to Taj Mahal
firing expletive epithets

assenting military mandating withdrawal
loosing vicious police and/or junkyard dogs
declaring no exemption against marshall
law innocence absolute zero guard
as sharp teeth nsync with flesh maul
cue hideous sinister laughter
welcome to danse macabre ball!

Premium Member God's Meek Ones

We are the innocent ones who were verbally and 
physically eviscerated by heathens who deemed us weak.  

The evil ones punished our hearts, souls and minds
leaving us in an internal pool of blood.  

We endured the ruthlessness and brutality from all whom
wrongly believed they were somehow above us.  

There were so many of us children living in fear and
desperation, while countless turned a blind eye to us.

My hope for God’s meek ones is that their memory of the 
inhumane persecution doesn’t cause them pain forever.  

I’m writing this for all of God’s meek ones, who are 
the chosen ones that our abusers failed in destroying. 

My promise to God’s meek ones is that a divine light will
shine down guiding, protecting and leading them to Heaven.

Surely, as God’s meek ones, we will be looked upon as
His most precious and pure!

My heartfelt sincerest gratitude is for my beloved Aunt Flo, her
kindness helped me to feel worthy giving me back faith in God.

To all the Meek Ones trust that God will create a way through all 
your pain and know that no one can stand against Him!

~Author's Notes:

The " Whitney " is a poetry form or style created by Betty Ann Whitney. 


-Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

Romans 8:35-39  (ESV)

Against Your Will

The shape of the world is not a man standing on a globe, or a man dressed in white robe, it is the shape of the heart that leaves you scrambling in the dark. It resonates through the machines  and disrupts your personal dreams.

 It climbs up the Chimney looking for something to prove, while scattering black sooth on top of roof. It leaves you stranded at the gate waiting on something that will never come and so destiny will have to get up and run.

The world stands aloof in front of me making silent music in the trees the wild duck is swimming in the pond with the little ducklings follow along. I watched the morning suns rises above the wall scatterings its heat all over the streets  melting the asphalts underneath's  my feet.

 The road in front leads to nowhere , don't listen to them because they have nothing to share, mythology and legendary baked in the sun, you have to complete the task before the day is done.

I can feel your presences in my space, I am trying to tell you something about  the human race,  the clock will not tick until you get me out of the ditch, hard hands will not do, tender and loving hands will move you along.

If the garden could speak, Adam would come out crawling on his knee begging  for mercy and the serpent would have licked the apple juice above his knees  and then he would have understood the meaning of glory.

 It  was not a hard fought battle, it was just the conscience of man devouring the pestilence hiding in the desert sand.

I could feel the thumping in his heart and the agony that he felt from the start. He didn't want a ceasefire  so he had to  fight against his innate desire.

He was given an ultimatum and if he did not accept it his days would be done. He knew what the fight was all about, it has nothing to do with the people's shout. It is tied to years of history, the rejection, persecution and hate and fulfilling the promise that is tied up in the gates , oh how his heart breaks.

He wants to fulfill the biblical prediction holding David and goliath in two different hands. The philistine were bruised  and left walking around without shoes, and on the final day he drove the philistine away and swallowed his breath and retreat to the war cabinet with a map, a pick axe and a hammer.

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY JUST ONE DEFENDER

As I hide in You to witness Your light’s eternal opulence.

Thank You for subduing me despite pride’s exaltation
Midst mockery in expressing earnest sin-confession
As I remain in You to do best with pure devotion.

Lord God, You are my Just One Defender against jeopardizing hopelessness
Thank You for comforting me despite offences causing restlessness
Midst weakness in persevering toward victorious steward-faithfulness
As I confide to You since You hear me in my prayerfulness.

123 Discreet Persecution

123.

Discreet Persecution



So you think I've been deaf & blind

Who can't hear & see from behind?



Doors & walls clearly speaking

Floors & roads plainly showing



Omens so artificial

Messages so diabolical



Tired of listening

To a cat meowing?



Want it o go hide & seek

Knowing that it's already weak?



Wanted/Missing without search

Whipped & slashed by thorny birch



What more discreet persecution

Pack & throw, chop & burn?



Can't imagine such bloody reckonings

Longing for more sufferings?



You think my mind shall be conditioned

With such dreadful gleamings aforementioned?



And after such bloody execution

Behold the Almighty's retribution!
