What fools those ghouls Those self-acclaimed progressives! “Regressives,” indeed Who take no heed Of the Word from above. They talk big about love But know nothing of it. O puuulllleaaaase! Shove it!

(Deuteronomy 7:22 Poetized) Think of all the times when Answered prayer was delayed. Oh the whining and the moaning The groaning for our wishes To be fulfilled on our table Of time.

Saving Babies “violently” Was not in vogue when we firstArrived in the great town of Wilmington. Only the Church of Christ was kindEnough to let us in. But time has passed And now we have a Presbyterian Church willing to lurch Out and give us a try! But we will say “Goodbye.” A kind try […]

Like the pro-aborts going under The name of “Planned Parenthood,” Phony communism advocates Fraud and deceit like a snake Slithering into a room Of frolicking fools and ghouls. So the Godless pretend to be full Of truth and justice for all. But, no. Got no balls To seek and stand for the Right. They opt […]

Reading along in my lexicon I came across a word Most absurd it would seem. “Ekthesis” it is. Oh, how coarse And yet, back then, so normal So regular, however morose. “A putting out, exposing” It reads – but of what? A child indeed – “a child”! Barbaric seems not Sufficient a word to tell […]

We worship moments in time Memories, places, pictures sublime. Yet it is we, who were created. The Maker is our worship owed Throughout our days in this abode. The lust for things of earth Spinning before us since birth Has no place of import, Driving us to abort, Weed to smoke and coke to snort. […]

Huh! “Woke”? The “Hip!” of the 60s Up to date, morally tuned, “Enlightened” “Progressive” “On top of it” “Cool” A fresh expression To refer to the alleged prophetic, Wise, insightful person (Well, those who follow His Word Are “Woke”! No joke.) We are “woke” to His Word And by His Word we – The people […]

The “Woke” folk Like the hippies before them The Godless left Are all quite bereft Of that Standard. That Law from God Takes us from the sod From which all came To death’s great maw And raises us again Even saves us From sin and death. Oh the corruption And His interruption Of the course […]

Long ago, traveling about quasi hippy I happened upon Chios An isle of the Greeks. It was breezy and warm, The ocean was calm, Lots of fun on the run Just traveling around and listening To the wind and waves, Lots of water and caves Where the fish would wander. And how I loved the […]

Like the curves of a naked body From Renoir to Playboy The lines of life intrigue us And catch us off our guard. The beauty and the power Of strokes from brush and ink Drive us to lift our minds above And give the Lord a think, Who made those pretty creatures From whom the […]
