Outcasts

Outcasts

Come; hear ye outcasts, 
Ye lost in the shuffle,
You are chosen among those fighting,
for rank in the scuffle. 
Your undying pursuit, though seemingly at a distance.
The unrelenting passion, fueling without resistance.

Come; hear ye rejected, 
Cut from the mold of a different kind,
Says the Master of the banquet,
“Gather them all, they shall be mine.”

While never striving

Outcasts

Relegated to the shadows where we cannot grow
into who we would have been
the person we were meant to be
We see the hazy glow of daylight in the distance
yet the sun never dawns for us
despite the desperation of our prayers and pleas
to know what it is to belong
to be wanted
deemed worthy
The velvet black veil of night

Satan's Outcasts - Satire

Heaven offers tickets to any citizen
           Adhering to good behaviour, as Richard
            Sin washed virtuous shines richeous
           Permitted exclusive afterlife purchase


Richard prided himself on

For All the Outcasts and Loners In Life

“Where was God,” you ask, “when I needed Him?
     When I felt cast out and all alone? Spurn'd
     by my peers for being poor!? All I learn'd,”
you persist, “is that here people condemn
you for just being different, too. To them,”
     you add with

When the Outcasts Meet the Runaways

When the Outcasts Meet the Runaways 

When the outcasts meet the runaways,
and the rejects meet the lost.
All those who feel stepped on, 
all those society tossed.

When the odd ones lift the fallen, and the fallen rise up strong. 
All those who feel unwelcome,
 all those who dream to belong.

When the kind hearts meet the broken,

Love's Outcasts

He knew who he was,and what he was
He was aware of his sins more than most
But this man can heal, they said
So he humbled himself, and left his post
....for a moment with LOVE

She knew the laws concerning women
Her blood flowed daily for twelve years
If they saw her, she would die
But hope compelled her to silence

As They Discerned, I the Essence Strengthened the Outcasts

As the crows fly
They come to pick out my eyes
Discerned is thy nebulous sight

I must clash with night

The wounded warrior's cry
Essence made to rally this fight
Strengthened is my revived might

The elegy of white,
Outcasts the night

The Outcasts

Hear my people shout, the shouts of despair
See my people’s faces that no one can bear
Feel the songs they wail, the wails of the night
C’mon people, come along
On this trip to Calvary 

Here on the mountain our tribe dwells
With its rocky little lane, and the spring way swells
When the first light of hope dawns another

Outcasts

Do you know a people who was treated rotten?
Do you still see those who are now forgotten
With all the priests creeping, the agents acting all tweaky
The feds are wondering what rewards will be reaped
Words all deep; enter the white freak with all the abuse to teach
Like when it happened at Meech or when the white

Outcasts From Your Love

I stand here before a great host
and they truly know me
I stand against you 
and I know longer have your love and I stand here procliaming that I do not want it
and as the sun rises, I see my people
stirring and know they are me
outcasts from love
outcasts from your love
my blood boils, knowing you hold

Outcasts

They watch from 
Their place in school.
No one notices.
No one cares.
They are alone
In the big world.
Watching life unfold.
Not experiencing for themselves.
Sad
Lonely
Misunderstood
They try to break through the glass
Separating them from 
The rest of the world.
But it is unbreakable.
So they stand and watch.
Miserable
They are the outcasts.
