Fry-day

Last night, i got laid
Doubt came to me in my dreams
And had an intercourse with my mind
I am five months gone
Carrying these thoughts around
Hoping to abort this abomination
So, let me break open my insecurities
Hoping to make an omelet
Because today is fry-day

Shots fired
Fear has breathed its last
I am shut fire
Ready to explode at last
This is suicide
I die to rise, call it Easter
Fear skews sight
Jesus fixed it, Bethsaida

I love a meal of eggs,
Egg-xactly omelets.
The way we can whisk two together or maybe more,
Like the intercourse of minds, like the grind of spirits.
And isn’t beautiful, the wet and slip of waters, the freshness like a new day, the way it all becomes familiar and new?
As we sit at tables set before enemies ,
Fellowshipping with sips of living tea and chewing bread alive, making alive,
That the omelet served is faith, the abortion to every doubt.
Isn’t it beautiful, the sparks that fly as iron sharpens iron, and ideas are born for the time they arrive?
Don’t you just love a meal of omelets?

WITH GOD IN IT…

Shhhh!!!
And the Lord God breathed into his nostrils
And he became a living soul
And that rhythm would continue till the day he lay motionless and cold
Everyday we wake to the morning sun
Breathing the breathe He brought us
Leading the life He lent us
Yet with our mouths we confess
That we the manifestation of His masterpiece
Is normal, ordinary, common?
Well yes!
That’s what we are
Normal, natural, ordinary
But when God steps in to the picture to make our heart His habitation
Then the para super extra part of us gains life
Yes life
And what great potential we would realize even in this life
Yeah I see the disbelief behind the sneer
And who am I to judge if I too was once there
Well here’s sufficient proof as to the truth
The bible might just be a book
But with God in it
It stands the greatest most complete book on history’s hook
The boy David was just a shepherd boy
But with God in him
He became the greatest king Israel will ever know
Gideon should have been the lowliest of men
But when God stepped into the picture
He won ridiculous battles and ruled even the highest of men
Mary could have been just another Israelite virgin
But with God in her womb to mature
The world will forever remember her name at Christmas
Samuel should have been some ordinary altar boy
But from the day God called his name
He became a worthy priest, he anointed kings and a great prophet he was
Rahab could settle for being a prostitute
But when God chanced upon her home
She saved her whole family inserting her name in the family line of Jesus Christ
Esther could as well remain the favored queen
But with God in her words and heart
She saved her nation from extinction
Joseph could have ended up as Potiphar’s chief servant
But with God in his decisions
He somehow made it to the throne as prime minister
The Samaritan woman had some pretty wrong logic
But an encounter with God
Made her one great evangelist storied of in the bible
Of course you may worth nothing
But if you let God in
You could be greater than the man in your dreams
Tomorrow may be the dawn of another year
But with God in it
Its sure to be the greatest you’re yet to experience
Little is much when God is involved
The truth remains simplistic
I hope you do get it

Here’s what I really wanna say
With God in it
Even impossible reads I’m possible
This might be just another poem, well great!
But with God in it
It could bring about the change your heart desires, better!
So don’t you be quick to confess as to your inabilities and inadequacies
Just let God in
and experience what it feels to be a KING!
