Allow yourself;
Freshen Your Breath With Righteousness---
colonoscopy (preformed on the wrong end)
mediastinoscopy (video views tracheal hues offend)
Mouth full of filthy voice;
Caught in bowls of bad choice;
Need to vacuum the end;
That's dirty, that offends;
Let the Savior in
Allow His to give you new beginnings;
Allow yourself;
To freshen your breath;
Cleanse your mouth;
Stop using the profanities;
That violates your pearly-white teeth;
While your soul whispers peace;
Rinse your mouth with righteousness;
Cleanse your mouth;
With Holy goodness;
Talk about those virtues of God;
Allow yourself;
To freshen your breath;
-----------with righteousness

Finally the moment came.
The last enormous effort to breathe out your life
The last heaves and sigh
Your mild eyes that were caressed by your eyelids
For the last time they were put to sleep
I was not there Ma, when all of these happened
Did you look for me? Were you restless
Not finding your ever reliable arms, your dearest of treasures?
I know not
At that very moment I was tossing feverishly upon my own bed
Far away from the hospital where you were laid
Three days ago you writhed and motioned us to release you
From the chains of all those tracheal tubes, monitors
And all other things
They didn’t allow you to talk
I understood what you were trying to say
But so helpless was I Ma, I was helpless
I stood watching you how they lulled you into submission
Ma, now you are free, now sleep so long as you wish

Deep erupt tracheal cry;
Gypsy shrill into the sky,
Passion soars, raking air,
Igniting like a solar flair.
Lunging tones as pleas profound,
Accelerate away from ground.
Deeper zeal that pulses forth,
With pain as waves of emotions court,
Beseeching shaft as fast as light,
Ripping shreds of cosmic night.
Humankind has made its mark,
And roared its presence in the dark!
