‘Humble of Mercy’

You Want It to Be! So Bad….

A sample from Book 12

(September 26, 2018)—

Praise for Joy and Security of the Righteous—Keep me safe, O God, for in You I take refuge. I said to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord; apart from You I have no good thing.’ As for the saints who are in the land, they are the glorious ones in whom in all my delight. The sorrows of those will increase who run after other gods. I will not pour out their libations of blood or take up their names on my lips. Lord, You have assigned me my portion and my cup; You have made my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.

I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. I have set the Lord always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because You will not abandon me to the grave, nor will You let Your Holy One see decay. You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.―Psalm 16

‘Unconditional Terms’

‘Unconditional’ Fades When Another Takes Your Place!

A sample from Book 12

(July 25, 2018 [Didn’t post on Facebook.])—When toxicity takes its toll, there’s nothing to say or do.

A weak heart turns to go, finds a new heart to rip apart. A strong heart cries alone, struggling to regain ground, move on. You don’t lose to cheating. You lose to betrayal. That’s why those who don’t marry, stay single. They can just hang it up, move on to another. The faithful one can’t do this.

‘Reality’s Unjust’

Dating Sites Lead You To Unjust Fantasy!

A sample from Book 7

 Reality's Unjust
 (Sweet Man)

 it wasn't long ago
in our heads
lost
 picture of perfect
 ideals...exactness
without flaws
 dreamers
pulled from reality
  
 something
before
private
  
 then that sudden chance
 that perfect
we meet– 
in imperfect form
  
 at first
we disengage
 –a mere friend
someone we know
  
 that imbalance
slowly transforms
 two people collide
imperfect provisions–
 dislikes...likes
there's just something
 –no finger to place
drawing you close
  
 the lease expected
becomes the one
  
 it takes time
'a constant union–
 the irritating
the friend-like balance
 the missing of presence
 –wanting to be
then I can't do without
  
 there's no formula
no bodily temptation
 it's in a smile
 –a certain look
 the way words
fall from the lips
  
 imbalanced
becomes balanced

 time spent
time wanted
time needed

 something
before
private

 something
now
reality's unjust
  
 forcing of chance
through pictures on a screen
 blankness
breeding false hopes
 texting...chatting
lost in our heads
 searching for perfect
imbalance– 
not giving time
  
 instant decision
instant irritation
 instant befriend
  
 ending
before
its beginning
  
 freezing hearts
too many encounters
 lost– 
getting to know
 without
bodies to show
  
 lost– 
the small imperfections
 leading to
innocent flirtations
 summing up life
 –complete satisfaction
  
 instead– 
wanting
 instant gratification
instant perfection
 in another
we don't truly know
 in a world
designed
  just for show
