You are the saviour


You are the saviour.
You are the song.
You are the message and messenger all in one.

You are the virtuous person on earth
to which I may add is coming to full worth.
So long as you listen to your more salubrious part
then you will begin to understand –

Life is for those who want to know
how to be a better human being and expressive
in that way that is humble and not ‘grand slam’.

I saw you standing on the shore


I saw you standing on the shore
I know not what you want or I can further explore.
I saw and said to myself deep within
this can only mean some sort of heroic deed
I am definitely not equipped to begin.

So sorry I did not listen before.
So sorry I did not understand that call
from that vast shore line.

I said within that I had other things to do and try before …
before I made such a commitment to love and adore.
I said within I had time to live and live I did
with shame and guilt, love and joy
as too the family I did develop
and now older are on their own alive and well.

And here you come once again.
Years are gone long before
that time you came
on that vast shore.

I know I had a task to answer for.
I know I was being asked to comply
to look back over my futility of shame and blame
and heal once more
to future explore without the garbage, baggage and more.

But I had a sense this was more.

God’s Call to Alms


God’s call to alms
is no more than a shout.
A type of indication
our mind wants out.

No more violent behaviour,
ridiculous as it seems,
but there are indications
greater than our own
to uphold and fight to maintain.

We are idle profiteers in Westernised mental view.
Nothing more than for an outlook to usurp you.
Propaganda rages, raves and indicates
more profiteering for the mighty barons
on Wall’s mighty fortress.
The street with all the beating of drums
war like to kill and maim your future
and damn you to hell.
Nothing more profitable for you,
but for those few.

God Bless America the land of the free.
Well, that is what they preach, but of who are they?
God Bless America a world apart.
Some feel exceptional,
but of a God which is that other part?

God cries lament and seek out your soul.
God is in the Bible and bashing is all they ever do.
But what is required is a different stand.
To take up the arms within your own life span.

Think about the value your birth new did indicate.
No more painful journey into that life on earth to partake.
New as new can be, growing wiser by the day.
But now no more wisdom that all went far, far astray.

Think about tomorrow
for that may never come.
Wise words I am sure.
But what if you are awake …
and see what it is that they are doing
and drone like, drop you in the soup
where the world is poorly run?

There’s no more meaning …


There’s no more meaning God
I am trapped down here
in the flotsam and jetsam of reality.

God’s persistent call, my mind predicts.
Or else …
where does this mind come from in the West?
Creature comforts, devastation elsewhere
while we creatures gather and make a noise
as if hot blasted, but cold,
freezing nothingness into the air.

What type of syndrome?
What type of despair?
When we in the West cry poverty and declare
it’s coming in and we want no more of it –
refugees from who knows where?

The danger apparent


Spectre is rising
the earth under control.
By whom, is the question?
But do you care at all?

The valley once rich
plentiful in supply.
Now with this ghostly apparent danger
who but you will survive, in death?
Perhaps not at all.

The gods of good measure
hover about
but man in idle slumber
has no one to turn to
because the danger usurps one and all.

GBM

The danger apparent
Who cares, but you
The fervent need to preserve within
that is where you need to review.
