Kill off the Mile Long Tree
For anyone who cares only cares about everyone
Revelation in mind, we don't feel the same
You should sort through your thick skull, my friend.
Each twig, a secret forever held
Each leaf, a statement never expelled.
My dear dreamcatcher, though my dearest is radical,
You're being ripped out by your roots, big buddy.
You're calling for unhelpful help.
So "Relational Warming" makes headline news
It consecrates our separate views.
They must've gathered some leaves,
And ever too many twigs.
You'll just grow another tree or two
To make up for the 'loss'
You'll just grow some extra foliage,
Replace the grass with moss
You'll just keep on making excuses
And dwell on your own exhaust.
But you're playing vampire in this romance, my darling.
To blame, you have only yourself.
You're dancing a dangerous dance, my dear
You're calling for unhelpful help.
Orangutans are rather rare
See a flash of orange up in the air?
They feed on fruit, swinging tree to tree
Living in relational jungle harmony
God is a relational being.
He is more of a friend than a formula
Do not get trapped in the dynamics of
Trying to decipher the formula to get
The life you want from God
God is more of a friend than a formula
Having God as a friend is the
Most valuable aspect of your life
We speak and God speaks
We act and God the Father acts
We pray and God answers according to His Will
The God of Mercy is a Relational being
God is more of a friend than a formula
The Friendship of God is Grand, Majestic and full of Beauty

Like a brick-by-brick castle unfolding. with scaffolding
Petals after petals of distress go on unfolding.
Feelings of hurt, ache, uncertainty, and anxiety
Like rust in iron, it pokes and corrodes my gaiety.
Is it my physique, which is ill within, that causes pain?
Is my psyche, like a parched, cracked earth, screaming to be sane?
Like a termite-eating piece of art, I crush and crumble.
On the rocks of my sadness and loneliness, I stumble.
Is my blood boiling like water at 100 degrees Celsius?
My fear, anger, and pessimism make me nefarious.
My unmet needs, relational plights, and suppressed powers
Have grown in my orchard of hearts, like cannabis flowers.
I should come out of tension, like chicks out of shredded shells.
I should, like a lotus, raise my head from these marshy wells.
I should allow the graces of the sole spirit to flow.
Like the lilies of wild fields, by divine glows, I must grow.
Bequeathed of the faculty of
balanced return, of equilibrium,
turning the totem burn of caloric expectancy,
cause and effect
translating universal machine dialect
satellite positioning itself in the physics of
affection, affinity, sistered brotherhood in
reality check of relative fee.
Beneath the atmosphere, here,
clings one to another like faded dusk
to a pregnant dawn.
As he leaves, she returns, again
to meet him in circular run.
In Fibonacci launchpad portals of
action and reaction chained to loop again.
Chi and grace turns,- will and space.
Like a cog that swings the pendulum scale,
weighing relational phi in the window of pi?
Certainly in the window of possibility
where the harmonic scale is like two dragons
chasing each other's tales,
hooking claws into foothold of reality,
like a fitting piece of harmonic puzzle poetry.
There is no facade here, no illusion or trickery.
Science is poetry and poetry is the science
of the mind in artistry, intertwined.
Everything with potential, dependency.
Yin and Yang,
of the divine.

True Grace specifies no special face to extend God's Grace.
Religion at its finest could never define the True God of the Bible.
Understanding and loving God demand that we do likewise with others.
Ecclesiastical organizations are great assets for reliving human suffering.
Giving His only begotten son was God's greatest example of loving humanity.
Reliance and resting in the reality that enables us to give our lives in service
Activate True Grace, and we set an example of Relational Christianity.
Religion is both God-centered and taking care of orphans and widows.*
Exceptionalism should be a trait of Christians that is given as seasoning.

Where we embrace love,
Grief is as strong as death;
love lost.
Where we are afflicted with hate,
Gratitude is as strong as death;
loss wished for.
Grief rages against loss,
Yet gratitude lost
can become violently angered,
terrorist frightened
of present and future
as past's reincarnate vulnerable pain.
Grief begins
felt in solitary vulnerability.
Gratitude eventually heals
through transparently shared solidarity.
Love is as strong as
mortality's vulnerable weakness.
No more,
no less,
as these merge into one healing face
of gratitude for co-relational gain
more than mere mutual absence of pain.
