Every word I write
must be right --
written to the best
of my ability; my
product of honest
thinking
Not a word penned
while blinking
To be perfect, is to be true
To be flawless is truly to
be you.
Every hope and aspiration
should be contemplated
with invested determination
Without driving will
there is no achievable way
(make every gambit
a fully invested play)
All winners are reformed
losers.

George was to us The Deformed
And his bones The Malformed …
Then, to our rules he conformed,
After he was duly informed
And by us pointedly reformed
And-Lo!-George stooped looking deformed
Nor were his bones still malformed
For overnight, new ones had formed!
Just through his Conformity for Acceptance,
In him stifling Tiger of Resistance.

He was a chicken thief now and then.
Until he met a beautiful twin.
Pretended he’d changed.
Marriage was arranged.
Taught his children how to swindle men.

These times way back in 16th century
when at the reformation’s heart
God’s hand was showing itself so real
the power of the Lord evident in no small part
There in Geneva capital of the Swiss
living there on French borders east side
the church of God had great influence
in politics, education, morally crossing the tide
Great opportunities in hearing true preaching
men of God like Calvin, Zwingli and Farel
such a blessing received from God above
this hit my heart like a pierced arrow
There it was marvellous to see such change
within the corridors of power so great
law’s brought in for good of the people
the divine will purposed fulfilled senate
Such a feast of real spirituality
to dwell there among it all
this indeed heaven upon earth
made one feel like apostle Paul!

If I beg for another chance,
If my efforts stay worthy of praise,
Will the Jesus in you advance,
and absolve my sins that blaze?
time has grown long, your heart reformed
you've turned your light towards other's shade
you grew tired while my heart warmed
and now I trust and you're afraid
The clouds crawl through the sky
their shape never stays the same
your love shifts as you go by
the weather breaks and times reframe

REFORMED but DEAD
So, so reserved and cold..
devoid of feeling, emotion
denied ,contained,held back
within..as if to express or
praise aloud were a greater sin.
Soso reserved and cold..so
transparently a veneer..so
thin...missing His point..
Love expressed..the flipside
of our sin.
So,so reserved..and false..
a facade..where thoughts
are held back,left unsaid
..so so sad..are those who,
without a doubt..are saved
reformed,even,..yet..remain
emotionally dead
You may hear me recite my PS poetry on YouTube under my pen name ichthychiro

Full moon listed, one Halloween night
A witch flared radioactive flight
Across the bow, around,
With such a swooshing sound,
Only a few saw this awesome sight.
She was adorned in black lacquered dress.
Her flight was erratic, under duress.
Plunging fast to the ground,
A whirlwind dive, no sound,
Upon impact, there was such a mess.
From the rubble there raised, a new form.
However, looked not much of the norm,
She stood, trying to sum.
Then spoke, watch out for rum.
Moreover, she needs to reform.

After his sentence of four to serve
Will we be better for having known you?
A trillion point four is a whole heap
More than this mind can compute
Prison or healthcare
Weighing in the balance
Do we really want to make laws that make criminals out of our citizens for money
issues?
