You see the world through his eyes
sharing his views with the masses
He sits only on chairs for the wise
dictating all of your classes
Forget all of the tales that you've heard
attached to bodies of the laymen
Nothing supersedes the cost of his words
as he receives every payment
Invisible only to nonbelievers & friends
with attitudes of an atheist
Refusing thoughts that everything is him
proves who really is the craziest
Receive him with open arms & hearts
embracing his enduring love
He's the body & everything are his parts
made from his mind up above
Cosmic in all of his eternal ways being divine
tried & true
In his essence exists an infinite shine born
of suns on display for all of you to view
Bulky ute voyeur selects sleek sporty stalion
Driving by, supersedes her oversized sedan
Wide wheel arches have Porche comparison
Voracious engine's enthuse easily enchants
Large car cast dispelled by lacklustre Calais
Original conjur 370Z parked beside boring
Low leg swing exclusive slide in, magic valet
Over revved start stabs adrenalin assuring
Our dear Dara, choice contacted in December
Available last minute to test drive his beast
Black gloss road boss, enlarged 'lungs' terror
Capable crazy bitumen baby, tester pleased
Ultimate Man concurs, the amenable outcome
Keys in her hand a few days after, aura froze
Couldn't imagine huge generosity from anyone
Racing car reap, increase on what she sows
Merry go round roads, another showoff slotted
Silver pole stabilised glides in Surfers cycle
Crosslane carousel onlookers, briefly besotted
By hot hoof nimble Nissan race horse style

Too Great of a Man

Dawn pierces the dark at first light
as flocks of mourning doves take flight.
And though sullied skies seem so stark:
at first light, Dawn pierces the dark.
Sol liquefies like molten gold
that's incredible to behold.
For just as the sun starts to rise,
like molten gold, Sol liquefies.
Darkness flees into the shadows,
like a merging murder of crows.
And as birds abandon the trees;
into the shadows; darkness flees.
Colors intensify with light
as sunlight supersedes moonlight.
And inking a pink and blue sky
with light, colors intensify.
I walk in the light I barefooted eyes wide Open as he is in the light his righteousness only Jesus righteousness supersedes man's I walk in his light even though within man's plight I walk on in his light in the dark and chatted side of the hood among Us the proud the most impoverished people nervous they need a believer Glory sound rise I speak the lights in his light I speak the light as a co-creator I shine and as I shine I shall speak the light on my knees I fall pray after the words stand tall I walk on in his life asleep and then chambering no I'm not in any danger because Jesus and his angels cover me covering me with the lights the light of covering protection victory shine ever upon me oh I am so glad I am so glad God has granted me these the insight as I walk as I walk on in his life

Look at our Country,
Divided, male VS female.
They say it's God;
The devil is in the detail.
They have always instilled
We are the weaker sex.
We are treated like a trophy
Or, a household object.
Abortions are illegal,
And no birth control.
A mandated felony,
And our prisons are full.
For some, giving birth,
Means their death.
For a baby not wanted,
She breathes her last breath.
Abortions will happen
Either way.
We are tired of hearing
What you have to say.
I believe the woman takes
Care of your needs.
We have the ,
It SUPERSEDES.
The majority of women can
Get by without a man.
The other way around,
He still has his hand.
We already raise the kids,
You're not much help.
To be with you is like
Swimming through kelp.
All tangled up, you
Have the lead.
Now you force us,
To carry your seed.
You are a dumb ass, you can
See where this is going.
As usual,
Your bad side is showing.
Turbo1904 ?
to be immortal
strange wish for the human race
history repeats
lessons misplaced by culture
still---war supersedes logic

A singular thinker misses the blinker missing the link up trying to sync up
drinking the drink up now he’s a dreamer convinced what he dreams up seemingly sees stuff pulling his sleeves up walking with knees up because he can beat us believe we’re beneath his world supersedes us believing his greatness so high he is weightless in the stratosphere spacious among the creators aligned with the makers but he’s just a being above where he’s being imagining what he’s seeing imagination set free in manifested but breathing but it’s dead like a sinner a delusional winner brain cells getting thinner unaware that they simmer to a simple beginner just a singular thinker
As marriages are made in heaven
God is our Matchmaker
Yet, they are worked out on earth!
Our families get their names from Him
As He is the stronger party
In this love triangle!
His covenant with us becomes
The overarching Covenant
That supersedes every
Other covenant in our lives!
He has promised to be the
Miracle Worker, the Way Maker
Who turns water into wine!
Something beautiful out of the ordinary
Where we become a sign and marvel
As families give thanks to God
Because of our life together!
Where God is the Head of our home
Where we become one and
A threefold cord is not easily broken!
Although our follies and fallacies
Can interfere, strain and stain!
Yet, God in His mercy stands ready
To renew and revive our covenant
With Him, our spouses, kith and kin!
Covenants are sealed forever with His Blood
And with His eternal plans and purposes
To bring happiness and gladness
On earth and in heaven!
Relentless is my urge to paint with words-
enduring feelings eager to express;
the constant pulling on my heart to speak
of the emotions that become deep thoughts-
the need to shape and share as poetry.
Long-lived is this ongoing, stable urge
ingrained since childhood, changeless and secure.
Relentless is my urge to paint with words-
where they became my lifelong stable game;
creating with a flowing verbal brush.
Deep-rooted, never changing, firm, and fixed
the making of a poem- seeking words;
a need that supersedes, above all else
until they're shaped into poetic art.
Relentless is my urge to paint with words.
Forgiveness
F Forgiveness can be so hard to give
O Our deepest emotions we all relive
R Returning to circumstances in your pain
G Growing your inner strength to maintain
I Innocence of events we misunderstood
V Volatile of deepest emotions a likelihood
E Each of us, our lessons we must learn
N Noting the feelings that cause us concern
E Evolving, learning the steps that intercede
S Standards are now highest for your needs
S Standing tall your truest feelings supersedes
Consider the potential of the weakest link,
For appearances can be utterly deceiving
Physical prowess can skew how we think.
The well-toned body can fail on the brink
While a good mind for strategy is achieving,
Consider the potential of the weakest link.
When the chips are hidden in the klink,
The impending score beyond our believing
Physical prowess can skew how we think.
Change can happen faster than a blink
With strategic decisions worth receiving,
Consider the potential of the weakest link.
Good form supersedes fashion, I think,
Though often considered interweaving
Physical prowess can skew how we think.
Causing us from winning to utterly shrink
From ultimate victory we were conceiving,
Consider the potential of the weakest link
Physical prowess can skew how we think.

I am a lion in the water
A bird struggling in the mud
I'm a horse trapped in the stall
A spider's prelude before the web
A wolf pacing before the hunt
A snail climbing Everest
I am the energy that supersedes the deed
I am the champion of its release
I am the fastest
The strongest
The most industrious
Of all around me
For I know the secret of hesitation
The powerful build-up of intention
I am the moment of singular focus
The third eye that can see beyond the now
I am the goal
I am the athlete
To make it happen
In the moment

It was a long time ago
as this story lends
In my late 20's when i dated Nicky
if you could call it that
And I drove a claped out VW Beatle
can't even remember if i had a job
But i looked great in a white tailored shirt i was buff and in my prime at this time
But she had a child and though the passion was wild and we were a good looking couple
She needed and wanted more than that
and honestly in my heart of heart's i think i always new and understanded that
But it still took a long time getting over
when she left me and moved on
But for me what was heartbreaking was for and the baby the best
Because a mother has to do what's best and sometimes that supersedes love
Maybe that's why i still miss her and love her
But i am sure she is better off without me
