• End Times

    The church bells
    In Jerusalem ring
    Beckoning forth
    Christ the King

    Prepare for the
    Rapture of the Church
    Don’t be left behind
    In the lurch

    Make way for
    The Son of Man
    He will execute
    The Father’s plan

    Christ will return
    At the Eastern Gate
    God’s children rejoice
    No one knows the date

    Out of Christ’s mouth
    Shall come a sword
    With it He shall slay
    The Satanic horde

  • Mental Illness Life

    I am very depressed
    I won’t get dressed

    I will sleep all day
    I must slumber without delay

    I have psychosis
    I also have neurosis

    I long to be free
    I am sick of this mental misery

    I hope one day to be sane
    I will endure all the pain

  • Winter’s Deep

    My Siberian Husky team
    Pulls me on a sled
    We are deep into
    A pristine pine forest

    The sacred silence
    Makes me feel at peace
    The glory of creation
    God’s handiwork on display

    We make camp
    Under a huge pine tree
    Its mighty branches
    Provide a canopy

    The snow is dense
    At least a meter of depth
    I build a snow igloo
    And light a fire within

    The sky is magnificent
    Millions of shining stars
    I am in awe of God’s creation
    I fall into a deep sleep

    Dawn is here
    We pack up and head for home
    It’s a glorious bright morning
    The sun shines down on us

    In 12 hours we’ll be home
    I thank God
    For this time in nature
    I feel energized and calm

  • The Torment of Insomnia

    Oh elusive sleep
    I want to lay down
    Without making a peep

    I long for rest
    To slumber all night
    Would sure be best

    In bed I find no peace
    Tossing and turning
    Surely I need release

    To sleep away the day
    Would be so sweet
    But for now I just lay

    Oh wicked vexation
    Let me snore so soundly
    My mind has excitation

    I will bide my time
    Hoping sleep comes soon
    So ends my rhyme

  • My Day

    I left today
    On a crazy journey

    I walked very slow
    Didn’t know where to go

    I ran in the rain
    It made me insane

    I walked down the street
    I couldn’t be beat

    I growled like a dog
    My belly is huge like a hog

    I barked at the cars
    And even the bars

    I bellowed at the cat
    I forgot my hat

    I’m totally insane
    I have a malfunctioning brain

    I am psychotic today
    I do not want to play

    I will ride a moose
    As we trail the caboose

  • Shadows of the Past

    A moment
    In the past
    Frozen in time
    Captured on film
    Something that
    Will last
    Native Americans
    Believed
    A photograph
    Of them
    Would capture
    Their soul
    How many people
    Today
    Believe that
    If I took
    A poll
    All those
    Smiling faces
    Are now
    Long gone
    Their lives
    Snuffed out
    They had
    Their moments
    To shone

  • Me

    Feeling high
    Wondering why

    Take many a psychoactive drug
    Now I feel like a slug

    My brain’s faulty operation
    Causes me great consternation

    My thought are chaotic
    Sometimes I’m psychotic

    Yearn to be free
    From this mental misery

    Want a whole mind
    Hoping someday it I’ll find

    Until then I’ll sleep
    Relying on Christ’s grace so deep

  • My Journey Through Space

    I left
    Earth today
    In a most
    Unusual way

    Using my
    Mind’s power
    I traveled
    With grandeur

    A phased
    Mind warp
    My consciousness
    In an energy orb

    I soon
    Sped along
    Singing
    A happy song

    I was now at
    Superluminal speed
    This journey
    I really did need

    I flew past
    Galaxies
    Nebula
    And planets’ apogees

    A black hole
    Nearly sucked me in
    But due to my speed
    That did not happen

    Racing through
    The cosmos was great
    But it was getting
    Rather late

    I raced
    Back home
    Another day and
    The universe I’d roam

  • Flux

    When I rise
    In the morn
    I praise the Lord
    Even if feeling forlorn

    I put on
    My spiritual armor
    Equipped fully
    And thank the Father

    Demons
    I shall slay
    It happens
    Every day

    My mind
    Is complex
    A witch tried
    To give me a hex

    I fight
    The dark
    I dream of daylight
    I hit the mark

  • Afternoon Thoughts

    Sigh no more
    We depart
    For the
    Celestial shore
    It is sin
    I abhor
    I desire to
    Sin no more

    My sister Vi
    Is out of sight
    She helps me
    Often
    She’s a pure
    Delight
    She made
    My bed tonight

    We trust
    In Christ alone
    His radiance
    Has shone
    In Him
    We are free
    No more
    Misery

    We pray
    For America
    She has
    Lost her way
    Once close
    To God
    She is now
    Far away

    Repentance
    Is needed
    For us
    To once more
    Be
    That shining
    City
    Upon a hill
