Poetry is what is lost in translation.
– Robert FrostPoetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.
– AristotleA poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.
-Robert Frost'Love your neighbour as yourself'
Most of the people cheat on their wives
Most of the people lie to each other
The minority kill each other
Most of the people steal from each other
Most of the people swear at each other
Most of the people dislike each other
And who will you blame?'Love your neighbour as yourself?'
Lineon
I believe that the most
valuable contribution
a Parent can make to
His Children is to instill
faith in God.

we are saved is prophetic names writ yet can vanish
without walking we atrophy unless we profit we diminish
faith not followed, useless, presumption takes to the grave
grace not sought is not owned, hope alone does not save
intellect ruling Spirit, sown vanity must reproduce itselfthey brought new books to the table to promote the latest idea
more modern, more relevant, not superstitious as they then were
would the master be amused with such diversions from his teaching
will he share the stage with such experts, join in admiring their work
call no man rabbi, anyone preferring another's is ashamed of my wordswhat is truth said the roman besotted with power
tell us more said the greeks, you entertain our minds,
truth is science said man, let's measure some for you,
I am truth said the greek, opinion is all, while the meek
carpenter shone the light in the dark, darkness still rules
through vanity, political domination in the kingdom of fools.nebuchadnezzer ate grass, poor fare for such a great man
to remind him another is King of kings and all eat from His hand
men are grass here today gone tomorrow and who remembers
their steps, better using time to fine witnesses where it mattersmy learned colleagues and i after extensive study of the documents
believe there is an underlying teaching that is stronger than the truth
that is plainly revealed and we have decided that all must now be read
through this new vision which will now form the foundation of the true faithtraditions give comfort, the master kicked out the chair
from under the complacent who found fault with his care
the dying who thought they were living in the light shining
though Abe and Moses were not hearing because they had
trusted in actions, not heard deeper words, stopped up their
ears unto murderous ways, deception, guarding, vicious dogs,
protecting nothing, had nothing, sacred scriptures read wrong
only brought out their rage, fruit always defines type of the treethey no longer walked with him as his teachings were too hard
but they walked with each other needing the comfort of friends
sharing hope that some way could be found among them
that would satisfy their need for a religion made for menmen boast that they cannot be taught, the underlying thought,
is that they now know it all, being oracles of truth, from their ramparts
tall they cannot be assailed, their windows all shut keeping out all the arrows
their moat and the drawbridge holds out foreigners but little light
penetrates through such thick walls and the wheat cannot
grow in the central courtyard, so starvation is all
can be gained by such defences
when the actual war is
deeper within
manthose that stayed with the master those chosen
and in whom God had planted the seeds of true faith
grace falling on them from the mouth of the king found
a home built of truth not understanding, they abided with
him for they grasped that God's choice was evidenced in his
works and not their view, faith is simple, act now, don't hope
to know all now or even in the future… it doesn't really matter.'Come join with Me' our Lord says
'Take My yoke it is the right thing to do'

You will lose arrogance and recieve humility
You will love yourselfLineon

I love you guys -charityTime is the coin of your life.
It is the only coin you have,
and only you can determine how it will be spent.
Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.
-Carl Sandburgdon't give the Last coin from a sheep skin purse-charity
two went to the temple, both needed forgiveness, were sinnermen
one came home exalted, he knew and admitted his problems
other lost though religious, confused though well read
ticking boxes, filling forms, doing what he could
to embroider his casket with more filthy rags
blindness first affects insight it seems
