Spiritual Gem Inside Me 7/3/25

Spiritual Gem Inside Me
A jewel breathes inside of me
In a chrysalis where a rose
Breaths the covenant
Promise born from the heart of perfection
Where intoxicating remnants of a garden
Linger
Whispering,
Beckoning me home
Through the sweet scent of grace
Humming lullabies
As my petals open
To leaves of reconciliation
My Hope waits in silence
With the promise to circumcise
My uncircumcised heart
With sacred oils
Running over my head,
Down my chin,
As I put on the mantle of mercy
Bathed in balm and incense
Enfolded in this troth
I, a child in waiting,
Readies to bloom
Like the lotus flower
Rising
From murky depths
Where I have planted my roots
Seeking
The alabaster bouquet of the Daystar
In floral facets of fragrance -
Goodwill and kindness
My gem,
My gift, this rose,
No hardened stone
A crystal still forming
Unlike wilted blooms
Refined
By the perfume of the Refiner
A prelude
To an unblemished jewel
Abiding
Among many
Worn in the victorious crown of glory.

So growing the flower in my heart;
Arms outwardly stretch up start;
Perceptions premised parts;
Up holding unrighteous darts;
Needless to prevail the dark;
~
Whose am I to embark;
Seeking these those dark;
Uncircumcised found lost;
Available accumulation at all cost;
Blessed Good with the love of God;
Seekers found impressonable not flawed;

Jesus
Shepherd of my fugitive spirit shower “grace,”
Emmanuel’s “joy” to hollow “life” in “holy” art,
As nail scarred hands I adore in tender embrace.
Selfless servant your signature of “faith” impart,
Word, as Judah’s Lion enfold this thirsting deer
To caress my uncircumcised and rowdy heart.
I sink into profound omnipotence -“love” so near,
Anointed “hope,” slow to anger, flows stellar
Pure compassion heals blind deafness -miracles clear
Crucified gentle dove reconcile my residue of scars -
In nascent dawns dedicated to the living Daystar.

I'm a woman
astrong pillar made with love care
They call me uncircumcised fool
For I don't believe in cut
I believe in today not past
That why I call the process archaic
circumcision don't make me less
Actually I weight better than the cuted
For I don't bare the pain and torture
And time comes I side side by men's
Yes we are not equal but am no different
For am not the manager but the CEO

Awake, Awake
Awake, Awake
Put on the strength of the Lord
Put on the beautiful garment of Love
For God is Love
For the circumcised and uncircumcised
Must come to God through Christ
He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life
For no one come to the Father but by Him.
Will you enter through Him
Or are you like a thief
Who comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy
You were redeemed from sin and death
God has given you His blessings
It is His best
Taking you from your mess
Now you may have success.
Awake, Awake
Take you His test
And come to Him and have your rest.

BLACKNESS
No racism, we are all made of black
Like a bacon-eating balaclava-wearing bachelor Jack,
And even if you're white or Caucasian,
Can't run from black hair like typical Asian
Cos of creation we all had our fair share
And even if you're blonde or red at all,
Can't run away from black eyeball,
For sure, our full cup of character will always pour,
Even if you're hazel or blue eyes,
Can't run from black eyebrows or lashes
Even if you're completely shaved or albino,
For a spot or birthmark you can't say no,
Even if you're clean, fresh and pure
There'll always be that identification you can't cure
And can't run from a dark soul or dark side,
Whether saved or unsaved, you confide...
In the phenomenon called life
As if both of you were husband and wife
"You're still made of black" is the said slogan,
Whether circumcised, uncircumcised, Jew or pagan.
But if you evade all these notions
You're certainly of or in a dark world of vexations;
Darkness is always here to stay.
BUT LET YOUR LIGHT DO NOTHING BUT SLAY.

The Israeli army was facing a giant
The whole philistine army on Goliath was reliant
Send one soldier to face me he was defiant
However no Israeli soldier was compliant
Then into the camp David came
He heard the giant's challenge and his fame
He saw the Israelites whimper away in shame
And the Spirit of God did David inflame
How dare this uncircumcised against God roar
David arose willing to wait no more
With a stone in a sling and his bag had four
He released the sling and let the stone soar
The stone struck the giant's forehead
Goliath fell down for he was dead
David drew the giant's sword and chopped off his head
In terror the philistines screamed and fled
The victory won because on God did David fully trust
And if God is your refuge and strength then victory is a must
All your enemy giants will crumble and fall to the dust
For God is almighty, all knowing, never leaves you and always just

When i come to you
You must be ready for me
In my bed
The uncircumcised
Must not bring their filth to you

SONNET FROM CHRIST
I never thought of coming to this evil land
My father sent me though it wasn't a command
I was invisible until I turned dust
It was my father's wish thus a must
You were all uncircumcised until I arrived finally
I came to set you free
I was not unaware of the pain I would go through
They debased me because of you
I was virtually nude when they hanged me on that transit tree
My father's wish came to pass untrammeled
You whom I freed went back and stumbled
After I sacrificed my blood, you subjected me to disdain
My father sometimes feels I came to toil in vain
You hide behind the facade of my commemoration and escalate my pain

We’ve seen flowers
Of all colours
Flowers that are bright
Flowers, blue and nice
Flowers that invite bees
Flowers that kiss breeze
Beautiful flowers
Flowers are different
Some hold strong firmament
This flower radiates fragrance of scent
Opens its petals for my sake
Kindles my heart
Knows not the word ‘hurt’
Passionate and loving flower
Beware of phony flowers!
Which pretend to fulfill heart desires
Flowers with uncircumcised petals
Blooming flowers
With smouldering pollen
Burning anther and stigma
Unforgiving flowers
In turmoil; fighting with hard lines
Opening mystery drawers
Where they hide concoction
Poisoning your soul without remorse
Macabre flowers
