In halls of legislature statesmen rule
by vested interest and inside rort,
and when last ballots are cast me and you’ll
be no wiser whose allegiance is bought.
In jurist action lawyers plead their case
as God your witness on the bible swore,
but alas I fear if not for God’s grace
you won’t find justice in a court of law.
On dark lit streets prostitutes bend their rack
risking life and liberty at each leer -
that screwing whore on her uncovered back
robs us only of a ride paying fare.
But what she does to us all hot and wet
the other two do every chance they get!

Welcomed by God’s wakening ways
Wondrously-wrought toward spiritual welfare-worth
Wavering not, I wait for my Saviour’s wellness’ wealth
Walking along His Word’s witness
Worshipping Him midst spiritual washing waters
Weeping against worries’ weakness
Wielding weapon over wearying wilderness-whoredoms
Winning while wrestling with wickedness…
Warned never to wander around whimsical wishing wells
Wisely watched over by the Lord, I am His wonderful workmanship*.
*Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
