Truth Be Told

Whispered Words

The answer seems to travel; it meanders as it goes. Hard to grasp the sound of the message; the words are self-absorbed.

Just make it plain and dress it bare so that the etchings show; they post the travel of events past, and tell the story so.

Then draw the line and stand far back, no matter what says the lure. Carry the words as written pure, without the added cure.

It's a straddled line, says faces frowned.

Whispered words dispute your crown; and so, they write - your Judas sound.

Again

Sometimes we don't like the answer so we ask the question again; we return with incessant inquiry again, and again, and again.

On The Balance

Some folk speak lies, as if the truth; then call-out for evidence, looking for proof.

Alright

Love won't make all things right; it makes lots of stuff better, but not all things right.

Passion

The fire is lit and gains united; slow feed the burn of hearts excited.

In Your Ears

How does the truth sound in your ears?

Does it beckon a safe way; does it sooth your fears?

How does the truth sound in your ears?

Does it sting like a bee or scorpion's prick? Does it bring condemnation's message like clouds billowing thick; or settles-in a while, then over-extends its stay?

How does the truth sound, when it comes your way?

Weak Resignation

Humankind should not live too long, better to number their days. Deeds of weak resignation speak condemnation loudly when the books are open, on the coming judgement day.

Just Not

Not the example of faith or hope or charity or strength.

Just not.

Souls Arise

Those who practice cunning and deceit - how can it be that such souls arise? These first go up to state their case, then down to claim their prize.

Free Will

Free will permits heavy sifting; abomination travels frequently this way; by doing unto rebellion you strengthen and enable it to dominate -

overthrow you some day.

Sacrifice

My lord; the smell! You live here?

I mean, you actually live in here?

Jesus, you live here?

It Takes Two

The offer was insincere, even more so, the acceptance, foolhardy.

Mercy

May we elude what we so richly deserve.

Sinner's Prayer

Oh Lord, most God, heavenly father on high, please look the other way.

Come On

Promise-up.

Wash it off.

Come on, clean-up;

get the stink out.

Sojourners

This here is a sojourners’ place. Careful that you finish; that you finish the race.
