The way that I now see, this mess,
it's better to give up my best.
Because if I do, 
I'll be friends with you,
That way there are no hidden tests.

I'm sorry for treating my mates,
As if they were locked behind gates.
Y'know, I did relish,
a chance then to cherish,
The feeling that I'd always win.

If I could choose my friends with care,
Then my life won't be shaped like pears,
At least, so I thought,
And that's how I bought,
The lie that life's a great big stair.

A ladder to climb up, and win,
approval of country, or kin,
My girlfriend, or mate,
So, next time I'll wait
And make people feel like their in.

'Cos winning at life, can be seen,
In ways by us all, we've all been,
A tall poppy here,
And that's why I fear,
That that's just the way that we lean.

The head, the heart, and the eye.

On wings from fairies, float these wholesome thoughts, from blessed books, and bottles frozen from, the fridge that freezes quicker than it ought, I slowly wait, my mind must now be thawed. Ideas too often carried on in haste, though, "fast" ain't wrong, it's slowliness that has, a wholesomeness, it chews enough to taste. I hope that I can slow down to a pace, to hold with hands that carry kinder thoughts, which have been stilled, and can be trusted in. The head must be a precious place, for sure, I'll never treat it like a garbage bin.

The Wise-dom of God

Beginning with the end that's given me, I try to use the strength I have from God. He shows me how, a better man I'll be, if trusting him, doesn't at all seem odd. I give him thanks for bread and too, for wine. The Lord has given all the things I need. His spirit's fruit that comes from love, divine. It makes me want his warnings here to heed. A blessing from my burden, he will make, inside me, so I'll be a blessing too. He'll teach me with his children, bread to break, Untill we can together drink wine, new! Together with the one who'll take our woes. The Earth and all within it will be glad! From bottom to the top, from heads to toes, and wipe the tears from all those who are sad. He said that he would come on clouds to bring, a dif'rent kind of change than those who rule, at present now, so, helpless ones can sing. A change will come for wise man, and for fool! Yeshua said, that his way is the one, to bring to us a light to stop o...

Mark ("my words") - from chapter 13

I'd listened in, and heard what Jesus said.. ..was after he was walking with his blokes. They'd said, "..that's quite a building, check those stones, out! What a sturdy looking thing it is!" "No, don't expect this place you see to last. It's only temporary, has a date. The 'best before' will run out, in the end. I'll shake your hand and tell you, this is fate." He said, and when they asked him, 'cross from there, as they were sitting on an olive mount. "Please, tell us, so that us four now can hear, when will all of these things, then come about?" "Be careful!", so he said, "Now, listen in.. For, many will come who say they are me. These phoney ones who claim to know the way, I'm sure that if you look for them, you'll see. And, kingdoms, countries, nations, go to war, to fight in battles all around the place. And, famines carry on, over a score. It's only the beginning, just ...
