REALITY

A November Prayer

If only my spirit could pray tonight;
I wonder what I would say;
perhaps I’d ask that you make it right;
and take all my sins away.

My thoughts swell with those that I love;
and even a few I’d forgotten;
please bend your ear;

Works In Progress

My failures have left my ego smarting;
meanwhile; I feel lost and alone;
as I draw near my preplanned parting;
I sense plans to call me home.

Although I’d experienced some success;
my temper often gets in my way;
I’m only one of God’s

Just Kidding!

Interesting; the games people like to play;
often because they think they’re so smart;
playing their mind games; day after day;
revealing a lack of love in their heart.

Words In The Wind

How can emotions overcome strength;
where does such power begin;

Warpaint Of The Soul

Life is comprised of human civilizations;
separated from a universal One;

cast out to become aimless wanderers;
seeking power over everything.
