Habakkuk 1:2He doesn't answer when I scream
Into the dark, into my pillow,
Into the hollow between breaths
Where prayers rot.
Everyone says He listens.
But maybe He doesn't listen to girls like me.
Maybe I'm the mistake in the plan.
The broken thread. The shadow on the altar.
They told me He loves the brokenhearted,
But He watched when it happened,
He watched, and...

It's Good To Be Bible Right.It's Good To Be Bible Right
It's good to be Bible right,
In these days and times,
With thought of doing God's will,
Afresh in our minds.
We will all need the Bible,
To examine our lives,
To see where we stand,
In doing this we are wise.
If it convicts us,
Then we need to get right,
If it helps and inspires us,...

If You Are LoveO God of blistered stars and silence,
I crawl to You with blood beneath my nails—
Not theirs, my own.
I tore at shame like bark from skin,
But it rooted deeper still.
Do You see me now?
A cathedral of cracked marrow,
Where hallelujahs rot before they bloom—
I cannot pray without trembling.
The night — I dare not name it —
Stitched its...

O' Crescent Glow
O' crescent glow
of perpetual allure,
candescent vigil, spirit light.
Vouchsafe a crystal dream
so I may brave
the solemn eerie night.
But if by chance,
at dawn, this ka,
in slumber's freeze awaits.
With plumage beings
I beseech ascend
to greet God's sentence fate.

When God SpeaksVerse 1:
A flood of golden promises
Flowing from Heaven's throne.
God's word made flesh -
So that many may atone.
Let this truth ring clear:
Unshaken from year to year...

What would Moses doAnd it will shower on the
Eastern Gate
A rain so hard
it wouldn't wait
The sound and actions
tornado's make
Moving earth with
instant haste
The flow of water
from up above
And wind so swift
to remove the cover of
That which men
would try to prevent
Would be a delay of time
actually sent
The Mount of Olives...

Pecco Ergo Sum I sin therefore I am
Pecco, Ergo Sum
(I sin, therefore I am)
Not an aimless ride on Sunday morning,
But for a faith oblige I am tied to attend
“Sinners!” the priest thunders from pulpit,
“Repent, for your flesh betrays the soul!”
Verses cascade from the book of the wise,
Urging forgiveness to claim a seat
In a kingdom beyond the grave’s cold embrace.
I turn to...

A Judgment Day Dialogue: Matthew 25 for 2025And the Lord will say to them on Judgment Day,
“I was hungry, and you defunded my food aid programs.
I was thirsty, and you rolled back drinking water protections.
I was a stranger, and you snatched me and deported me.
I was naked, and you gave tax breaks to billionaires.
I was sick, and you cut Medicaid and Medicare.
I...

Life is But a MistLife is But a Mist
(James 4:14)
Life is but mist that rises with the dawn,
A fleeting breath — it vanishes so fast.
We plan and dream, yet soon those dreams are gone,
Like shadows fading in the morning’s cast.
Tomorrow’s promise hides behind a veil,
Uncertain, veiled in whispers yet untold.
The past, a story drifting like a sail,
The present’s all...

corners
corners
i have walked around corners
when i should have stood still
driven fast in slow zones
and sat at the apex of silent
stone walls
i've said words i meant when i was high
and regretted when i was low
twisted sentences until they were wrung
too dry to matter
and left paragraphs drowning for want of a word
my soul aches at midnight
and...

The Scent of Musk(“The Mothership”, 2024, photo collage of original encaustics)
The Scent of Musk
What the world needs now
Is love sweet love,
No, not just for some….
And so it has always been.
This is our heart’s desire and birthright,
Yet the dream just slips away
Held for but an instant
Or reached for in vain.
Thus we learned to cooperate
Form bonds and institutions...

Origin of HopeHow many tears must hope shed?
Is there no bread left for the hungry,
or cures bred for the sick?
Can hard work feed itself no more,
neither trust share its roots with truth,
with no water left to nurture either one?
Does love have none left for itself,
nor mercy favor fruits of friendship
as it once did?
Do rainbows reign no more...

GraceA cold, snowy night in Advent.
I kneel at the altar, alone
in the church warm with the breath
of old wood and worn prayers.
The pages of the book
soften under my fingers.
Behind me, the silent nave.
Still, I speak the words aloud,
as though the empty pews listen,
as though grace leans in,
hungry for a voice.
And in the middle of...
