Not Near Zion
We were blind to the writing on the wall, Some said it was solely about the man, Not considering what had brought the fall, Which had started before the man began. We are in a state of perplexity, We are walking deeper into the night, It’s a state of shards and complexity, They tell us not to lose sight of the light. Where...

Your God Reigns
How lovely on the mountains are The feet of him who brings good news Who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!” Great joy and peace shall He diffuse O You who bring good tidings, rise! To Zion say, “Your King is near!” Arise, proclaim to Judah’s towns “Behold your God!” and have no fear Prepare the way of Yehovah Make straight a highway for...

Premium Member Slot Canyon
The ooze of earth and water, rivulets of mud, Moves slowly, then faster, as rain pushes its mass. Both water and earth mix in this massive great flood, As it's trapped and rises in a slot canyon's pass. As it inches up the wall's of Zion's great rocks, It swirls and heaves like the rage of an ogre. The tightening...

No Joy In Zion
No joy in Zion Cast the first stone If you are sure of your soul Cos you Don't point fingers When your eyes are dirty Our streets are hot Too many events are unfolding At same times Some are good So many are ugly The elite keep taking blames While The youth keep protesting Life is what it...

Zion Calls
A sanctuary waits for me Beside a woodland stream; Creatures chatter, beast and bird, Dithering among the trees, Engaged in nature’s repartee. Fungi, moss, and flower Gather in this shady, holy space, Habitat of happy innocence, Idyllic, secret forest glade. Just let me linger in the quiet, Kneel beneath the trees, Listen to the lessons Majestic nature speaks to me. Noble trunks stretch upward, Outward toward the sky, Praising arms,...

Who Killed My Good Dog
The Dog – My Lion! The strong like Iron Meriting Zion From-The-Brave Scion Now crushed by Tires From who engines fires … Just killed My Lion! And melted Iron And just wronged Zion From-The-Strong Scion That Brave Rogues panicked And with Saints picnicked: Tires that my heart bled And with sorrow fed … I shall Revenge feed And attackers breed And Death hatch with speed; To the same cruel dust I shall...

Zion Mother
I have been loved so very much. My Mother has a special touch. I have cherished feelings growing up. My Mother loves me, I am her son. Her family knows her, As a nurturer of the divine art, Whose gentle hands and words, Come from her living heart. She has a heart of trust, Which she uses to serve us. She is my worthy Mother...
