Premium Member(That's Noah to You)

If my ancestor’s
A rock, am kin to a stock
Complexity? Not!

When and where did I 
Become aware of myself
(Subatomicals)?

When and where and why
Did ethics (we use) arise?
Be Trinity wise

A three-year-old calls out
Her Dad, he said something bad
Justified? Repent

The land uncovered 
A new land is discovered
Flood waters assuage

(Nu-u's (kin) and canoe
Fuhi, Cox Cox their cogs too
That's Noah to you)

Spread the Gospel to
A land that is out of hand
A land that's rebrand 

Usurper attacks
The women and children first
In a land, athirst

Opening Himself
The Door, Gospel Waters pour
From a new wineskin

Alpha and beta
From Alpha and Omega
(Words don’t return void)

fish floats below its surface ~
eyeing the same flies

single ripple wandering
toward pure silence

moving, washing clean
weeping course of broken dreams
river’s song quiets
