The
Hallways of hell
Must be
Littered with Lego's...

I’m caught in a game
Of hide-and-seek…
Where the run-from One
Haunts my every thought,
And calls out to me
With seductive roars
[And I know her too well;
I know her too often]
While the chase-after Other
Graces my every dream,
And dances upon the earth
With footsteps as soft as a whisper
[And, oh, this Other I long to know;
Oh, this Other I long to hold]
I’m caught in a game
Of hide-and-seek…

Though no stick
In the forest
Is perfectly
Straight
But are
Broken
And bent
And deteriorate
A Man
Comes around
Who loves
To create
And He takes
The crooked
And draws
Something straight

I heard it early on,
Shortly after birth...
That time when I was thrown
Into this place upon the earth
The constant, constant ticking,
The ticking of a clock
The day’s and hours clicking;
Tomorrow’s mental block
---
Sein-zum-Tode, I know her –
Pulling me ever closer
And pushing me ever further
From yesterday, once-over
Today, I hear it loudly;
Sometimes I hear it not
And thinking things profoundly:
This ticking has to stop

O’ Flowing Stream, smooth and calm,
How gentle are your waves
Oh, how refreshing is your taste;
Like crystal glass, your gaze
I came a long and weary way –
Walked through the deserts dry
And in the moment that my eye
Beheld your view I cried
---
I cried because my eyes then traced
Your course up to the Spring –
The Source beyond the mountain top,
Where blessings flow and bring
I saw a bright and lovely sight:
A plan in the Grand Scheme
Providence…it brought me here,
To drink – to sing – to dream
---
O’ Stream, now that I’m here with you,
I’m here with you to stay
I’ll make my home and plant a tree
Beside your waters way
I’ll watch it close and give it all
I can to help it grow
And trust the Source to ever-pour
That you may overflow

I love her more than yesterday,
Or any day before
And when the morning ‘morrow comes
I’ll sing this song once more…

Sometimes, time stands still…
And I see,
Behind her smile,
The smile of Another

I have looked
Into the face
Of a real-life
Monster
He came into view
When I could
Stare
No longer
I tried to catch him
Flinch,
But when he cringed
I pondered…
I have looked
Into the face
Of a real-life
Monster

Sadistic, sinister:
The evil twin sister
I fight, I resist,
But sometimes I still miss her...
From birth was a friction –
Affliction – a blister
Now alive, I must die
Every day and dismiss her

I never cease to wonder
At the dawning
Of the
Sun
His
Glory, bright –
The Mercy-Light –
It leaves my heart undone
