I'm a Nazarene.
And in passing
Manly, strong-built, a woodworker
See how it lives.
I am Magdelene.
And here, knee-dropped
Eye-bent, a fallen woman's tears
Softer over
Flexing its true godly power
Witness; forgives.
I Am Like the Sun Unbound
the Great Governance of Ohm dwells in Thy Light House,
I Am like the Moon, Blissful in Lucidity
in Judicious Harmony, I wield Fire like Gervasi
High Vibes is the Jive, I Coruscate in Eternity
I Am like Bucephalus stampeding on the Front Feet,
I Am like the Wind, Ever Hasten in Pure Flow
I Am like Hayk, Blitzing through Urartu on Marengo
I Am like the Stars, Glistening like Chapels of Flame
I Fly High in History, like Comanche Untamed
I Am like the Ocean, Infinite in Oceanic Splendor, My Spirit Soars
Into the Depts of my Soul I Go,
I Am like Moses, Parting Seas of Disbelief
One Eye, Four Heavens, I Return to my Essence, Full Speed like the Nazarene
I Am like Aurelius, Commanding Forth New Frontiers
I Am like Jefferson pursuing Dreams, forging Trilogies of Liberty
I Am like the Elements, Master of the Great Mystery
Sword Upright, Shield Strong, I Attain the Helmet of Victory

Samo Kay Nazareno
Oh Poong Hesus Nazareno
Kahit ngayong Ikaw ay malayo
Kahit ako'y hindi mkapunta diyan sa Quiapo
Ako ay sa Iyo parin sumasamo
Ikaw na Siyang noon ay dinaingan ko
Ikaw na Siyang noon ay hinilingan ko
Na makatapos ako sa kolehiyo
Ikaw na Siyang mismong tinungo ko
Ikaw na Siyang mismong dinasalan ko
At duminig sa mga panalangin ko
Ako'y muling sumasamo sa Iyo
Tingnan Mo ngayon ang sitwasyon ko
Nasa alanganin na naman ang buhay ko
Walang kasiguruhan sa trabaho
Kinabukasang maganda ay malabo
Maawa Ka naman sa pamilya ko
Maawa Ka naman sa ibang tao
Sila ay matutulungan ko
Kapag dininig Mo ang samong ito
Kung ano ito ay alam Mo na po
Upang akin naring mabago
Ang nabubulok na buhay at pagkatao.

90.
Panata sa Nazareno
Sa loob ng halos daang taon
Mula nang naparito ang Poon
Ang mga Pilipinong deboto
Taunang dumaragsa sa Quiapo
Dala'y kanya-kanyang panalangin
Tiwala na hiling ay diringgin
Kaya nagmula man sa malayo
Sa Quiapo parin ay dumarayo
Lubos na pananampalataya
Puspos pananalig sa biyaya
Sa tuwing sasapit buwan ng Enero
Nandyan Panata sa Nazareno.

*Feast Day of the Black Nazarene in Quiapo
Deaf for many years,
when The Nazarene healed him...
they heard his soft tears!
Hearts of men and women around cities and villages bloomed.
Jesus lived among them and moved like a life-giving sun.
Was society as clean as it looked as a groom groomed?
This was the cause of the incarnation of God's own son.
Women disciples: Joanna, Susanna, and Magdalene
Served Jesus, for whom men and women were like his two eyes.
All (both rich and poor) loved the teachings of this Nazarene.
Through parables, he revealed their secrets above the skies.
God, the farmer, went to sow his words into this wide world.
Some humans heard, but Satan picked them up soon, like birds.
Some thought they loved hearing them, but every word soon got furled.
Some worries about the world, like thorns, grew and choked the words.
Hear, if you have ears, said Jesus, and went ahead with love.
Each of his deeds, like each creature, revealed his knit above.
(Based on Luke 8:1-15)
Mingled with the rural soil of Nazareth, he laboured
He played with the rustics, who were quarrelsome yet loving.
Farmers, carpenters, ironsmiths, weavers, and the shepherd
These were teachers from whom wisdom, like clear streams, flowed, gushing
He pondered along the coast of the Sea of Galilee.
Where the breeze amalgamated with saline sea scent blew
Where fishermen's strife had been a daily reality
In him, the friendliness of the sea folks, day by day, grew.
He found the philosophies and theologies of books
Put into practice by the Rustics in thoughts, words, and deeds
The affluent, on the other hand, seemed cunning and crooks.
Nature held them all in equipollence, mending their creeds.
Each herb, shrub, plant, tree, bloom, fruit, and weed imparted him wisdom.
He drew, by his love, each creature towards Abba's kingdom.

KING OF JEWS CRUCIFIED BY MARC ARCHIPPUS
Jerusalem Friday
Jesus(33) labelled by,Pilate,the Roman prefect as the 'King of the Jews'
was crucified here this afternoon.
Crowds watched the execution,including the mother of Jesus,some relatives and his Nazarene followers.As this is the week of Passover ,his body had to be taken from the cross before tomorrow's Shabat holy day.
After the body was taken for burial,I obtained an exclusive interview with Simon Peter(30),deputy leader of the Nazarene sect.This fisherman from Capernaum
said he had been with Jesus for these past three years.He disclosed the Nazarenes,from the northern province,who he describe as 'disciples',would be staying put in the city for a short time,to re-group and await further.revelations that would take their revolution to its next stage in Judea and elsewhere.
Other groups in Judea have made similar exaggerated claims to me in the past,all of which have come to nothing!
An illuminating moonscape came on Sunday
In Spring of thirty-three C.E.
[The third day]
Executed—Jesus the Nazarene
Falsely charged with sedition
God raised Jesus back to life
Forty days later, Jesus ascended to heaven
Unlike legends, the Gospel reflects
Painstaking accuracy and detail refined
If those events really did happen
Then there is a bright future for mankind!

Silent symphonies surrender the Nazarene night,
Where empty hearts splendor within the white…
A child is born amongst ambient Angels alight,
Where all adorn within a manger of starry bright…
The Nativity of the grotto graces gleaming gold,
Holy Spirit does bestow as we wonder & behold…
Where joy and peace spread throughout the land,
Rejoice and release upon the taking of His hand.
