Because the skies decided to slip into something a little sexier -- Something black and strapless Sheer, it shimmered against the skin of the universe The stars It's touch feels cooler, For the time shared, It bared all … Continue reading High Tide

Gabriel
Wonder how long Mary carried Jesus. Virgin pure Unexplored, uncharted Unfit, unexposed Unwarranted, Unexplained Undeniable. "Virgin Mary", Said the Angel "You WILL conceive! Don't try to conceptualize, Rationalize, strategize, improvise, Institutionalize... I'm just here to prophesy." Now young Mary within herself Trying to explain her seed, Her very meaning To those who could never understand or … Continue reading Gabriel

Yea Though I Walk…
Head bowed and eyes to God Recital hour of my heart What's my life's mission?
