#emptyhanded
I had stood on the edge of everything I had ever wanted Yet still felt the weight of emptiness in my hands

Everything I ever wanted
Is it emulation or imitation? Don’t both equal copy and paste? But a cookie-cutter dream gets hard to be, especially out at sea I gasp and splash, but my system crashed So I try to pass and grasp, but sink further from the grass I am an iron anchor upon the seafloor, shedding flakes of red rust, just left to be an empty husk The harsh salt water: my liquid brander Conformity leaves me an empty-hander

Empty-hander
Go empty handed and be fruitful Lay on hands and be liberal When you pour your oil Spit in the soil if you have to Whatever it takes to Bring healing and restoration To those who have a notion To listen to you who I have chosen To bring good news to the nations. And to each family which shows willing Give greetings With a voice ringing True and bringing Peace and blessings To all who reside in their dwelling For you are a herald of the most high King Sent to ensure His shalom and kingdom Hits home before you move on. Go empty handed and be fruitful Lay on hands and be liberal When you pour your oil Spit in the soil if you have to Whatever it takes....
