Reverend Eugene Williams

When my uncle married your daughter in 1975, you became his father-in-law.
Your daughter gave birth in 1979 and that was when you became a grandpa.
You lived long enough to see your great-great-grandchild, that's a privilege that many don't receive.
You raised a family and you were a preacher, those were great things that you were able

The Revered Reverend Martin Luther King Junior Second Part

(at risk of life and limb) against scourge of
racial prejudice courtesy
of sharecropper grandparents
whose objection to racial segregation
based on an affront to the will of God,

showed his true colorful promise

Liberal Crozer Theological Seminary
in Chester, Pennsylvania
where the yet uncrowned

eminent king came under the

the 
Perrie planes
where the wild winds blow
back and forth

with
a white painted 
wooden church
planted firmly in the ground
and
with
her 
narrow steeple
pointed up
towards

Kingdom of God

The Revered Reverend Martin Luther King Junior Second Part

planting the seeds of ardent activism
that gave rise to
The Southern Christian
Leadership Conference (SCLC),
an initial platform
allowing, enabling and providing acclaim

hoisted up by petard
invariably only heightened
(his) posthumous status
as thee most articulate orator
spelling binding the listeners
with his metaphors about his emphatic march

to a promised land where all
men/women could be brothers/sisters
and no person will be judged
by the color of

Premium MemberThe Reverend Listens

I spoke with Reverend Laura today.

She listened curiously
more than merely patiently,
actively
more than barely politely,
as I noticed her questions
in this sacred space
of co-empathic listening,
dialogue,
discussion,
discernment

Of where we are heading
and behinding,
progressing
and healing,

God Did Not Send the Corona Virus As Punishment

Corona Pandemic is Not’s God’s Punishment

Premium MemberThe Reverend Billy Graham

Alas, we on earth are left to mourn,

The passing of The Reverend Billy Graham.

Yet, there is great rejoicing in Heaven this day,

As God with his angels embraced His beloved lamb!

He faithfully preached The Good News to all creation,

Following The Great Commission proclaimed by Him.

When he reached out to touch the face of Christ,

He said, "Welcome,

Reverend Moolah Green

When the moon and sun eclipse
That's when he wakes from the abyss
Then slips into black leather gloves
To hunt the neck of those he does not love
The ones who claim that it's all fake
Shall from this darkness never wake and
them that scream one final scream
Should never have doubted the existence of
The Reverend Moolah Green

I let everyone know in my immediate vicinity,
that if you have a pet, any
whereupon euthanasia has become a necessity,
because your pet is suffering needlessly
from a condition that is destined to end terminally,
but you cannot bring yourself to undergo this most difficult deed,
Please Feel Comfortable And Free To Call On Me,
and I will bring your beloved

The Right Reverend Dr King

 Five decades have made his preaching prophetic, didactic
Fresh from College, he was invited to go on teaching, O Professor King!
Chiseled his own Gettysburg address, to heal divided church and State:
We honor your family that overcame threats, bombs, the Bureau's wiretapping!

Yes, you were snatched away from us in your prime
Like a few other great Americans,
