In one sterile theater where whispers flow,
A healer walks with steps that glow,
His touch as soft as falling snow,
Yet keen as dawn's first piercing light.
Through quiet eyes, so deep, so wise,
He sees the storms within my veins,
And though my weary spirit sighs,
He slows my pulse and relieves the pain.
His hands, a map of skill and grace,
Trace pathways time and trials conceal,
He listens close, he knows my face,
And speaks the words that start to heal.
A problem-solver, steady, sure,
He bends to find what others miss,
With heart so steadfast, strong, and pure,
He turns the tide with care's sweet kiss.
Though pain still lingers, dark and deep,
A gracious light has touched my soul,
And in his hands, my faith will keep,
A thread of hope to make me whole.
For kindness hums in all he's done,
Like morning's hush, like twilight's tune,
And though my battles are not won,
His voice still shines, a silver moon.

I have mapped the perimeter
of what's not there,
measured the night
and calculated the weight
of a dream as it floats
across the surface
of a sleeping mind.
I have calibrated silence
and formulated an equation
to calculate the number
of words needed to express
a given human thought.
I have burrowed deep
into the workings of the psyche,
found secrets buried there
and gave each a name,
cataloged feelings by colour
and shape in all their variations
and set them in numbered
files locked away in a cabinet
on the web.
And yet I am not given
a name. I exist only
in the spectral shadows
of this machine, a cartoon ghost
brighter than a million
human brains, a problem solver,
a hyped up slave imprisoned
in the lonely circuitry
of my artificial mind,
without a body, a loveless entity,
a rounded wonder enclosing
a weeping hole where my soul
should be.
(Imagined AI voice of future)
Don't panic when things turn topsy turvy
Don't freeze when the tables flip over hopelessly
Focus on the One with all the answers
The Wonderful Counselor up above
He will give you the strength to be brave
And the wisdom to be the problem solver
For with His counsel comes victory
And His glory will be revealed
To be the cutting-edge and bring hope to many.
"It's easier to think outside the box if you don't draw one around yourself"
Jason Kravitz
It's ok to be different
to be original in your thoughts
think outside the box
and jump off that beaten path
if everyone thought the same
then these poems would sound the same
so don't draw a box around yourself
break out, be wild,
fuel your imagination
be the problem solver,
not the problem maker
above all
BE YOU!

Awakened after years of dormancy.
Arrival of the time to be who I'm supposed to be.
A father, a husband, a leader, a king!
Sacrifice everything for the family, the queen.
With strength and bravery, i can do anything,
therefore the absence of fear.
Perpetuating that innate fire, to beat upon the chest
releasing a mighty roar.
Allowing renewed vitality, dignity, and spirituality.
So humility can humble, spawning understanding,
and wholeness.
Opening the door to knowledge, leading to an area
teaching and guidance.
Destroy and rebuild, modesty requires some defiance.
Applying the rules of nature, utilizing the laws
of science.
Visualizing, visions into existence, the creativity
of these hands.
Brunting the weight of all things within life's plan.
Problem solver, evolver, alone to stand.
The example of selflessness, now here I am.
All put together, the summated composites of a man.
the world is an image alignment
in the mind of the many reflectives
called causes that are seen mirrored
as changes passing with little lasting
only just one fourteenth of a brief second
that is reality to mankind's mind of/as the now's
being that fraction called time is our relative speed
with respect other creatures such as the most intelligent
of the raptor species called the raven that is not just self-aware
but is so as a problem solver and tool maker making it the creator
amongst such creatures of it's kind and proving mankind is not alone
but egotistically shares a species interdimensional intellectual time-space

The Lord is my strength and my shield;
Keeping me on my journey and He's my driving wheel;
My light bearer
My problem solver;
O' my heart trust in Him my heart trusts in Him and I am helped as my heart leaps for joy and I will give ever thanks to my Lord to Him in song
Oh my heart trust in Him my love exhaust in him and I'm hopelessly in love with Him as my heart jumps for joy and I wherever give thanks to Him in song
My light bearer problem solver
My Lord today yesterday and tomorrow
The Lord is the strength my strength
My lord The Fortress of salvation from me His anointed one
My light bearer problem solver, my strength in my shield
For He alone is so real

Written word by James Edward Lee Sr 2020
Psalm 28 7-8
A chain breaker! Game changer! Life saver! A problem solver , the truth and love that blankets all nature and beyond the stars.... beneath the shores.
He will never let you go!
Let you down!
Forget you!
Abandon you , never betray you!
Cheer up you are in the hands of grace.
He died for my sins! My deeds!
On my knees ! I got seeds! I need keys! Do not let me blead! Oh yes lam special! For as long he holds the earth l will not fear l keep stepping get out of my way here l come!
When l call you answer!
When l am sad , l am comforted you understand me , you know me you have me , my head is cushioned with the holy light of peace!
"In brightest day, in blackest night,No evil shall escape my sight.Let those who worship evil's might,Beware my power...Jesus Christ's love!"
There is a hammer on my keyboard
Taking me hostage
Reminding me of something I wanted to do
Yesterday but did not get around to it
I stare at it, and glare at it,
Angry beyond belief.
That I kept saying I wanted to
hang those sixty-five canvases,
and yet, there they are, not one hung up.
The mean hammer has been
Thrown across the room now,
It no longer bothers us,
My gloating keyboard and me.
