What About You?

What About You?


You may have free will, 

that is true.

Picking your path 

without a clue. 


You look to your own device knowing 

you will only gain the world. 

I can't emphasize enough that 

in the end it will fade like a mural. 


Your eyes are closed as 

the world draws you in. 

I can pray for you, but without God 

my words just melt in the wind. 


You sow what you reap. 

We all do, be it for good or evil. 

The difference you may ask 

is not what equals. 


The difference is God, 

the rapture is true, 

we shall ascend, but 

what about you? 


There is a slim chance 

on a tribulation date, 

you will have to sacrifice your body 

on God's holy slate. 


You can ask him to save your soul 

in a world filled with fool's gold.

Your reward will be to enter the gates 

made of pearls but void of hate! 


Eternity is my goal. 

I want to take you as I go. 

Don't hesitate to preach the love 

as the Holy Spirit makes you bold. 


Go in true love.

Go in peace. 

Listen to the WORD 

and eternal life you will keep! 


So, what about you?

A Whim to Write
On the art of starting again

I have a whim to write so write I will.
Can’t believe I am being this still.

I type and I type to no avail.
I can’t believe it, so I guess I will.

What says the key — can it really be
an a or a y? I really can’t say why.

I have a whim to write, so write I will.
When night time comes, I pick up my quill.

Some say I’m lazy and others say naught.
When I sit here and write, I’m not such a snot.

I love the sound of the keys that clank,
or the pen that strikes as I sit down to write.

Well here we go again, picking up where we left off —
not quite sure what to write, but at least it’s a start.

Good night my protagonist.
It was good to see you again.
I’ll finish your scene without you letting out a scream.

The days are long and the nights too short.
I’ll finish your story sometime in the morning.

With coffee brewed and in the mood,
I’ll pick up where we left off,
and again we will start.
