Up and down/ down and up
You remind me of your 5 degrees
Hoping to bring me to my knees
You rant and rave your monolog
And scream like a hungered farmer’s hog

Up and down/down and up
You continue your one-way debate
With venom and hate
You scream and you yell
No facts to tell

Up and down/down and up
You shriek and shout as
Vomit flows from your mouth
Poison spays your every word
So, no one else can be heard

Up and down/down and up
No peace with anger
No one right all the time
All emotions No reason
Looking at a mime

Up and down/down and up
Words you’ve sown
Sticks and stones…
Vanity,pride,flaw
Makes it time to get off the seesaw

Epistle of James 3
“But no one can tame the tongue it is a restless evil and
full of deadly poison”(8)

“If you have bitter jealous and selfish ambition
in your heart,do not be arrogant
and so, lie against the truth”(14)

“For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist
there is disorder and every evil thing”(16)

“The seed whose fruit is righteousness is
sown in peace by those who make peace”(18)

There once was a man who was dying
To be one with the universe he was relying
His body to decay
Was the only way
To unite with the elements, he was trying

There was a man who was dying
To be in heaven he was relying
His salvation assured
He thanked the Lord
An ascended without even trying

Which home are you going to choose?
At home with the universe
Or
At home with the Lord

“If you are living according to the flesh
You must die,
But if (you live) by the spirit you are putting to death
The deeds of the body
You will live.”
Romans 8:13

.

You made your choice
I had no voice
You were in control
Of my very soul
The decision was on you

Never given a chance to birth
Never knowing what life was worth
You took it away
Never a look never a glance
You took that chance
And walked away

Tell me about my childhood:
Did I ride a bike?
Did I watch cartoons?
Did I go to school?
Did I like baseball?
Did you attend to my care
when I would fall?

Tell me about my teens:
Did I have a girlfriend?
Did I do well in school?
Did I have plans for the future?
Did I have many friends?
Did I have a car?

Tell me about my adulthood:
Did I graduate college?
Did I have a successful job?
Did I meet the girl of my dreams
And get married?
Did you have any grandchildren
Of mine?

It’s ok mommy
You did what you thought
Was right at the time
I forgive you
May be again it may be
That you will hug me
And you will set yourself free

You are He who took me from my mother’s womb:
My praise is continually of You” Psalm 71:6

[thumbs-rating- buttons]

Forget to call
I can’t stay awake
Till the morning break
I’m not to blame
If I forget your name
I stop and stare
Going no where
I forget to trump
I cry for no reason
Any time in season
It’s not my creation
If I exhibit frustration
Walk very slow
With nowhere to go
Excuse my anger
I can’t control
No longer active
Always distracted
I have no more trials or temptations
The din of the world has lifted
No need for memories
Locked deep in my soul
Born to die
Born to rise
To meet my salvation in the sky

But He is the strength of my heart and

Travel the road
To the sign that says STOP
Consider your life
And all of the strife

Travel the road
To the sign that says U Turn
Make your choice
Listen to your inner voice

Travel the road
Follow the ONE-WAY sign
Continue on your way
Do not delay

Travel the road
To the sign that says YIELD
Your heart will mend
Your journey will end

Do not yield to temptation
No bend in the road
Follow his promises
Or you’ll reach a DEAD END

you can always turn around.”
