The Post God Era

The Post God Era

When I was young, it was very different;
most, believed in a supreme being;
as time passed; the world became dissident;
God’s influence, became more fleeting.

One then declared that God was dead;
a scientist; puffed up with pride;
his arrogance; stood in truth’s

Weakness Is Strength

Weakness Is Strength

When I am weak; then I am strong;
at least, that’s what I was told;
I didn’t understand; but went along;
and now I am growing old.

It sounded much like mere double talk;

When Time Draws Near

When Time Draws Near

The essence of Being; present and past;
for Being exists, detached from time;
Being has been; and, forever, will last;
