Warrior

Tall and unflinching,
you face the adversary.

Offering

A small basket of woven leaves
With flowers, incense and camphor
Frail and delicate, set afloat

SIP BY SIP, REALIZATION DAWNS

The man scoffed derisively.

The Truth Is: There Is Just One Truth

It’s easy:

IN THE COMPANY OF…

On the chosen path

I walk alone

Except for Him above

And angels for company

10,9,8,7… No Mas? No Way!

Get up, stand up, carry on the fight
Don’t you dare call it a night
Don’t you lose focus, don’t lose sight

You can’t quit, it ain’t over and out
There’s always but always another bout
So get up again and shed that doubt

There’s a crown to win, don’t lose hope
Put up your guard, rebound off the ropes

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION

Nothing overt seems to have happened
But a smile breaks out
On your face
As wide as an upturned rainbow

BLESSED ME

In Him I didn’t believe

Of Him I had my doubt

So I asked Him for a sign

Last night, He ran my life past me

Now, how can I not?

FEAR

Today, I take you on, my fears
You overwhelmed me all these years
Made me despair, had me in tears

Because of you I looked long but never leapt
Where many ran, I carefully stepped
You caused me to seem so out of depth

Many desires that I had sought
Those battles were lost before they were fought
You, fear, brought a lot to naught

From not wagering on a winning bet
To waking up in a clammy sweat
