Молитва

The best prayers,

I believe,

are ardent fragments.

Stepping Out In Faith? (aka “Do-It-Yourself” Supernatural)

Despite what the TV Preachers imply,

I don’t know if I can make my miracle fly.

…

Sow a seed, if you please:

such harvest you will reap.

Epiphany Rising

Submerged and submitted,

surrounded by ice,

I die to myself.

Agony, ecstasy, numbness,

cacophony and silence,

everything and nothing.

In those few seconds,

I cease to exist

and that

is bliss.

Human, We Can Hope…

Your skepticism has ugly, loud manifestations.

Our Faith is beautiful,

peaceful,

tranquil.

We are human,

we can hope.

Grace Be

She views you

much the same way you view him:

Frightful thought!

…

Let’s walk back, reflect,

forward.

Grace be.

Hatikvah & Nadezhda

Jews are repulsive, indeed!

Thing is, Christians, Muslims,

Buddhists, Hindus, Atheists,

people and chimpanzees,

are inherently repulsive too.

(Such are the bad things we do!)

… Brothers, sisters,

we’re all God’s beloved trash.

Immense work,

Jesus had to save.

А кроткие наследуют землю и насладятся множеством мира …

You call me a failure

as I wait passively,

knowingly,

waiting for the “go-getters”

to implode.

…

The preponderant

speculative,

acquisitionist

nature of society

is a crock

destined to fail.

… And Believe

Preacher’s preaching, TV.

You don’t understand the message

but you know it’s important,

the organ’s playing, emotive.

You put your hands on the TV screen

and believe.

Beautiful Child

I cast a glance,

askance,

and wonder what hope

the future?

(Given the assholes who surround me!)

…

So, I pray

and believe,

for sanity,

in better.

…

By faith and philosophy,

my reality exceeds

their vision.

Imagination

understanding,

conceives…

The “Make It Happen!” Kind of Faith…

The TV preacher sounds hollow

to my ears,

around the wall,

in the kitchen.

“Make it happen!”

effectively,

he’s saying,

squeezing out the mystery,

the Glory

of the Holy Trinity.
