Let's get some sunlight Let's start a bar fight We'll take our problems and forget we have to solve them Let's take two tabs Let's start a **** lab We'll cover up insecurity with promiscuity Let's sleep 'til Sunday It's only Monday I have to work at 2 but I think I have the bird flu Let's call the drug store Ask for a couple more Insignificant reality crashes into banality   Let's make a hash pipe Out of Brite Lites We'll quote Pulp Fiction with Ezekiel's conviction Let's start a fight club Where we can make love Punch me in the ear and then I'll disappear Let's start a new life But after midnight There's a whole universe waiting to be uncovered first Let's make a difference Let's make new friends Let's go where the wind blows but first I have to put on clothes

We are, THE Ohio State Buckeyes *Those Oregon ducks look flashy With pretty feathers made for flight But The Ohio State Buckeyes We will clip their wings tonight Our Buckeye team beat Bama They were ranked at number one Now we get to go Duck hunting With Cardale and his shotgun The Ducks they did look good Lets give credit where credit's due They beat undefeated Florida State So they deserve to be there too With Ezekiel Elliott making runs And Urban Meyer making calls A quarterback known as twelve guage The Buckeyes will win it all So now we get to go duck hunting And as a team we hunt as one We are the Buckeye Nation And Duck Season has begun* **We Are THE Ohio State Buckeyes** Game score FINAL OHIO STATE 42 Oregon 20 The Ohio State Buckeyes are College Footballs First Playoff National Champions Poem by: Carl Joseph Roberts

We Are, THE Ohio State Buckeyes
The flames branching upwards in a spire It's cruel twists never seem to tire A dark soul comes from the fire It's Sam, a kid they all admire Fables try to claim thee Through stories of a tree Branching upwards in a plea A widow stares at a stain, left by the rain Constructs a local fane, all in her saviours name Caught between the fear and guilt Of living off someone's fame Knowing the day it all stops, she'll be engulfed by a flame Abaddon is calling, Ezekiel is balling Babylon returns Mathias saw the world, while Belial just watched it burn With immense follow through The path becomes true As he watches triple 7's disciple scamming for a buck or two Out on a past due lease The Man Of Peace

Duality
I remember the night my mother was stung by a scorpion. Ten hours of steady rain had driven him to crawl beneath a sack of rice. Parting with his poison - flash of diabolic tail in the dark room - he risked the rain again. The peasants came like swarms of flies and buzzed the name of God a hundred times to paralyse the Evil One. With candles and with lanterns throwing giant scorpion shadows on the mud-baked walls they searched for him: he was not found. They clicked their tongues. With every movement that the scorpion made his poison moved in Mother's blood, they said. May he sit still, they said May the sins of your previous birth be burned away tonight, they said. May your suffering decrease the misfortunes of your next birth, they said. May the sum of all evil balanced in this unreal world against the sum of good become diminished by your pain. May the poison purify your flesh of desire, and your spirit of ambition, they said, and they sat around on the floor with my mother in the centre, the peace of understanding on each face. More candles, more lanterns, more neighbours, more insects, and the endless rain. My mother twisted through and through, groaning on a mat. My father, sceptic, rationalist, trying every curse and blessing, powder, mixture, herb and hybrid. He even poured a little paraffin upon the bitten toe and put a match to it. I watched the flame feeding on my mother. I watched the holy man perform his rites to tame the poison with an incantation. After twenty hours it lost its sting. My mother only said Thank God the scorpion picked on me And spared my children.

Night of the Scorpion by Nissim Ezekiel
I remember the night my mother was stung by a scorpion. Ten hours of steady rain had driven him to crawl beneath a sack of rice.

The peasants came like swarms of flies and buzzed the name of God a hundred times to paralyse the Evil One.

(Ezekiel, xlviii.35) As birds their infant brood protect, And spread their wings to shelter them, Thus saith the Lord to His elect, "So will I guard Jerusalem." And what then is Jerusalem, This darling object of His cares? Where is its worth in God's esteem? Who built it? who inhabits there? Jehovah founded it in blood, The blood of His incarnate Son; There dwell the saints, once foes to God The sinners whom He calls His own. There, though besieged on every side, Yet much beloved and guarded well, From age to age they have defied The utmost force of earth and hell. Let earth repent, and hell despair, This city has a sure defence; Her name is call'd, "The Lord is there," And who has power to drive him hence?

(Ezekiel, xxxvi. 25-28) The Lord proclaims His grace abroad! "Behold, I change your hearts of stone; Each shall renounce his idol-god, And serve, henceforth, the Lord alone. "My grace, a flowing stream, proceeds To wash your filthiness away; Ye shall abhor your former deeds, And learn my statutes to obey. "My truth the great design ensures, I give myself away to you; You shall be mine, I will be yours, Your God unalterably true. "Yet not unsought or unimplored, The plenteous grace I shall confer; No -- your whole hearts shall seek the Lord, I'll put a praying spirit there. "From the first breath of life divine Down to the last expiring hour, The gracious work shall all be mine, Begun and ended in my power."

"Ezekiel saw de wheel; way up in de air And de littl' wheel run by faith, oh yes, an' de big wheel run by de grace of God 'Tis a wheel in de wheel in de middle of de wheel way Lawd in de middle." Choir songs are fun and catchy and I have to sing them every God **** day. They are all written by some funny looking black guy named James in the earl 1900's. "John said the city was just four square, walk in Jerusalem just like John and he declared he'd meet me there, walk in Jerusalem just like John, Oh John oh John what do you say, walk in Jerusalem just like John." Most of them are about God and faith but sometimes you actually feel them. It's weird, they make you feel spiritual. A whole class full of students singing can do that to you. "All this night shrill Shaunteclear, days proclaiming trumpeter, claps his wings and loudly cries, "Mortals! Mortals! Wake and rise! See the wonder days are under, and through his will good be done!"" Sometimes you don't even know what they're about, no kidding, but they still feel nice to sing. The ringing of the Sopranos and the roar of the Baritones is awing, it really is. "And the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, how the twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, twinkle, in the crystal lime-de light." It's cool when you sing poetry, like Poe or something like that. It doesn't give you the same feeling but it's still cool, if you can get into that kind of stuff.

We don’t know whether every angel carries out the same tasks, or whether some of them specialize in certain areas. The Bible does speak about classes of angelic beings like cherubim (Ezekiel 1) and seraphim (Isaiah 6). We also know the names of two notable angels: Michael (Daniel 10:13; Jude 9) and Gabriel (Daniel 9:21; Luke 1:19,26). The unnamed angels who appear most often in Scripture carry out a variety of tasks - all designed to serve God…     Worship and praise - This is the main activity portrayed in heaven (Isaiah 6:1-3; Revelation 4-5).     Messengers - They serve as messengers to communicate God’s will to men. They helped reveal the law to Moses (Acts 7:52-53), and served as the carriers of much of the material in Daniel, and Revelation.     Guiding - Angels gave instructions to Joseph about the birth of Jesus (Matthew 1-2), to the women at the tomb, to Philip (Acts 8:26), and to Cornelius (Acts 10:1-8).     Providing - God has used angels to provide physical needs such as food for Hagar (Genesis 21:17-20), Elijah (1 Kings 19:6), and Christ after His temptation (Matthew 4:11).     Protecting - Keeping God’s people out of physical danger, as in the cases of Daniel and the lions, and his three friends in the fiery furnace (Daniel 3 and 6).     Delivering - Getting God’s people out of danger once they’re in it. Angels released the apostles from prison in Acts 5, and repeated the process for Peter in Acts 12.     Strengthening and encouraging - Angels strengthened Jesus after His temptation (Matt 4:11), encouraged the apostles to keep preaching after releasing them from prison (Acts 5:19-20), and told Paul that everyone on his ship would survive the impending shipwreck (Acts 27:23-25).     Answering prayer - God often uses angels as His means of answering the prayers of His people (Daniel 9:20-24; 10:10-12; Acts 12:1-17).     Caring for believers at the moment of death. In the story of Lazarus and the rich man, we read that angels carried the spirit of Lazarus to “Abraham’s ***** when he died (Luke 16:22).     Executioners - Angels are sometimes used by God to punish sin. An angel of the Lord went forth and smote an Assyrian camp (2 Kings 19:20-34) “behold, they were all dead corpses.” The Assyrian army was annihilated. A destroying angel was sent, but later withheld, to punish David for his vanity in taking a census of the great number of his people. At the time of Moses and the Exodus, the Egyptian firstborn where killed by an angel of death.

DEAR fellow-artist, why so free With every sort of company, With every Jack and Jill? Choose your companions from the best; Who draws a bucket with the rest Soon topples down the hill. You may, that mirror for a school, Be passionate, not bountiful As common beauties may, Who were not born to keep in trim With old Ezekiel's cherubim But those of Beauvarlet. I know what wages beauty gives, How hard a life her setvant lives, Yet praise the winters gone: There is not a fool can call me friend, And I may dine at journey's end With Landor and with Donne.

To A Young Beauty
Somewhither, we wilt meet, Whether afore mine Ending; maybe in the Hereafter's passage, gramercy to god, babes once again Reborn in the Perfection of Love- None struggling to Survive, nor push And shove; we'll Be happy to gaze At the exquisite shimmer's. Ourn Thought's wilt Burst of unearthly Features. With un- Earthly teacher's we'll Meet along the way, Abraham, Issac and Jacob; Paul, Daniel, Ezekiel to. Enoch to Sit the riverbanks of Life, whilst the seraph's Sway to ancient live tunes. None mockery of yeshua Christ, inside this holy Place- many mock him now, And the Prophet's yell loud, Though many shut their ear's, As their fear's they eat on Dog's puked up plates. I sayest lift up thy voices Oracle's, prophesy to the End's of the gates, the time Is now, the day of salvation Is today. Jane, ourn lord Wilt call, with Gabriel's horn to Be the precursor; of mankind's Fate. A heavenly date it shalt be. O' a heavenly date; 2016. ©Brandon nagley ©Lonesome poets poetry ©Prophetic poetry ©Earl Jane nagley dedicated( agapi-mou)

2016, homeward bound mine queen
i wish i could just forget it, but christ- there's a hook somewhere inside of me and it's wedged in real deep. the only way out is through and the only way through is you but there's only one you and the last time we included you was the time you got out of my car and left me with a mouthful of buddha says this and taoism says that and blah blah blah i know what i'm talking about but i don't know what i'm talking about and you know just as well as i do that i don't know what i'm talking about; oneness and demons, we're all god and ego and prayer, just stop it! you could have sat there and listened, though. but you still got out of the car in that construction zone with your friend and did you look back? i don't know you never said before you left for italy and left me antique shopping at just the gosh-darn-cutest shop this side of the PA/DE border don-cha-know. i wanted to buy everything there and say "let's have this one. let's have that one." let's register for this one. its just you always have a script in your head, but i always fumble my words when they mean something, and i can never talk about what i feel- never say what i really believe. maybe there's just no words for it, definitely there's just no melody for it. but if there was, it'd be all like... capo on 1: amin, g, f, c. say the word and we'll start heading home.

ezekiel 38:4 couldn't drag me away.
Ooo how to describe the feeling The feeling that I get The feeling that I get When I'm with you We've been to the Garden of Eden And seen God Seen the snake that played Eve And came back With roses and flowers Plants that smelled like blue berries, asparagus and mushrooms That was our Ezekiel, Better yet our Genesis . . . We’ve been to the coast were they still Harlem shake Except they shake their whole bodies like if they caught seizures We laughed at their moves But skilled one had to be to shake like that As if they had 100 grams of sugar in their system They went at it for two or three, on what felt like days We were almost left behind How can we forget we almost missed that plane Since we barely slept . . . Let's take a trip far from memory lane One that can only be remembered by the pictures we take I found this new place Is supposed to be great They say is the second best thing next to heaven and we both been near that Is like one step forward and two step back Let's take a trip I promise it'll be first class

Circling Earth circling Sun Circling Moon circling Earth Days cycling within Months Months cycling within Years Wheel within wheel within wheel Sphere within sphere within sphere And a day is a day in every sphere Their shadows of which on Earth As Days, Months, and, Years Life's inescapable rhythm ingrained In Man, Beasts, Bugs, and Herbs But only in Man do we count In joy and sorrow we feel it passed Fearful and hopeful all in ignorance For Time's beyond Man's wisdom Though they speak, a threefold echo Each revealing, each foreshadowing For on Earth as it is in Heaven Yet Wonderful as it is, it shall pass We know, for all Earth's given a Sign A count, an unnatural cycle of Sevens Of Seven Days, Months, and Years The Seventh of Each, is a Rest An Eternal Rest, An Everlasting Peace Pondering What is Time, the Master of Time Pointed to the Sabbath, and Ezekiel's Wheels

Days, Months, and Years
Not stealing and did not ask permission but don't believe she would mind if I give credit due. Read this and think it's worth reposting because it's great and it one of those judgmental folks should quit misquoting the bible poems. Original author is: Betty Ponder · Nov 28, 2013 Truth Regarding: ***** and Gomorrah Your willing flock of sheep believe your spin on books of Ezekiel and Genesis. Said you, and I quote, "God destroyed those cities because of same *** dating!". How can you twist words of literature you "claim" you know so well?, says me. The tale of the two cities was very different in my view and hope you re-read. Here's my take on occurrences on that fateful day when sky rained burning sulfur. God wanted to remove from the planet ones with fantasies of ****** his angels, those prideful and walking with exaggerated swagger in their steps, the arrogant suffering from superiority complex, all the uncaring hypocrites who failed to help those with basic needs and others; but, there is "no" mention of homosexuality. The time has come for your flock of willing to believe you sheep, to "read" the bible.

On the aisle of Clarin, misamis occidental
Ten remain hidden, two thousand years lost. Two struck down by bullet, gas, and flame; the ghetto stage one. Six million perished before the world ended this crooked crime Remanent of those lost rose like the cedar in Lebanon, Ezekiel knew best Twas God who gave men courage; they fought such tyranny, such hate Twelve mourned for a season while two given back old land North and south, east, west flock to come home, a great exodus at hand Two now settled, secure where they stay; diligently searching for those... Ten remain hidden, two thousand years lost.

I have tried here to create an Essay on Mother ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~with love, Sylvia FC a Mother, a GodMother, a GrandMother, the central figure in every family's life, who has the quality of a professor, the patience of an angel, the power of Tarzan the unique habit of keeping her family together as a united one, with that special kind of love which we cannot see, we as her kids can only feel it, smell the atmosphere of the cosy surrounds at home as we never could ever feel elsewhere... East-West at home with Mom is always the best!! her cookies are the most delicious ones we love to talk about her in superlatives Mother a place to hide when we have fear or anxiety, under Mother's wings is always a peaceful home-coming... daughters love to write a great tribute to Her as well as to Mothership Some quotations from different sources I put down here: First from the Bible: "Honour thy mother and thy father" Bible: Exodus "As is the mother, so is her daughter" Bible: Ezekiel And now from other sources: "So for the mother's sake the child was dear" "And dearer was the mother for the child" (Samuel Taylor Coleridge 'Sonnet to a Friend Who Asked How I Felt When the Nurse First Presented My Infant Child to Me') "All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That is his" (Oscar Wilde The Importance of Being Earnest) And the last quotation is mine: "A Mother is the most complete human-being on earth,   the caring and loving person, the only one to whom daughters write a greatest tribute, the safest place to come home... a Mother is like Home...."

It was cold and starry night At Christian’s house we stayed over that night All of us are in a rush For tomorrow’s the deadline for that F***ing school task Before 12 midnight they’re starting to count A countdown for another day of rush 03/23/2012 it was my 18th birthday *** I almost forgot! Here comes MJ & Ezekiel with a chocolate cake With 3 candles seem perfectly bake They sung me a song full of happiness I blew the candles as they directed. My 18th year of existence I felt so blessed Coz out of millions I do have friends Joanne, Dada, Bals, Jolina, tonete and Momay As well as Vincent, Allen, Agte are there to sway. They say a girl’s 18th birthday must be memorable Gifts and flowers I dunno how many Though my debut was not that fabulous At least I have something to reminisce when I get old.

I'm sorry I have not been on site. I very much want to read, but I have a friend who is in Desperate trouble. She's involved in a lot of occult practices, and her Immortal soul is in grave Danger! I'm researching the various practices she is engaging in. And actually promoting! Divination. Spirit Guides. Acceptance of Satan in the form of an angel of Light. And necromancy. This only names a few of the very dangerous practices she's involved in! If anyone here on this site is involved in any of these practices, please contact me. My research has sort of made me more expert at answering questions regarding them. I shall say this again... ***THEY ARE VERY DANGEROUS! YOUR IMMORTAL SOUL IS IN DANGER!*** I am a Watchman on the Wall. If you read Ezekiel 33 you will see the importance of being a Watchman. And the Fatal consequences for the Watchman who does not warn the people! The blood of the people is on their head! Any advice my fellow Christian believers can give me would be greatly appreciated! THANK YOU! ♡ Catherine

WATCHMAN ON THE WALL!
Just a word, Lord… is what I desire today. Often I devote quality time with Thee, hoping to learn more of your Holy ways. Just a word, Lord… keeps me moving forward with You; embrace me with Your Presence, in everything that I say and do. [CHORUS] Just a word, Lord… provides me with Everlasting Life. Being focused on You, reduces the noise of earthly strife. Just a word, Lord… completely captures my heart. My longing for You flows as water, that sates the thirsty hart. [CHORUS] Just a word, Lord… brings me out of the wilderness. Hear and answer my cries to be clothed with Your Righteousness. Just a word, Lord… lifts and inspires my weary spirit. Cover me with grace continually, in anticipation of Your heavenly junket. [CHORUS] _________________________________________ [CHORUS] Open the eyes of my understanding; remove the spiritual blinders on me! Always keep in my remembrance… Your sacrifice on that accursed tree. Author Notes: Loosely based on: Ezekiel 7:1-8, 1 Kings 6:11-13, Ezekiel 12:1-2, 26-28, John 6:47, Galatians 6:8 Learn more about me and my poetry at: http://www.squidoo.com/book-isbn-1419650513/ By Joseph J.

Poem/Song: Just a Word, Lord
During the long winter the town cemetery is chained off, Two thick cables across each entrance to insure That foolhardy drivers don’t attempt the hill that divides The new from the old sections. The upper half, the “New Cemetery” as it’s called, Offers more level ground with polished graves, As if “new” somehow made a difference to those resting there. Anyone who knows the difference prefers the old, lower section, With stones leaning this way and that And inscriptions that are barely visible on some. Old stones offer personality, truth be told-- Even the names seem more real: Caleb, Ezekiel, Matilda. I think of them there through those cold gray months, Blanketed in snow disturbed only by the occasional deer walking through. I know it shouldn’t matter but I feel sad for them all Forced to suffer through that blank desolation, Denied the warmth of sun or the curious gaze of some passerby. As if death weren’t bad enough, the white loneliness of snow Drifting over their one last piece of property Seems a cruel and unnecessary gesture on the part of the world they left. As if to say, “You’re still mine to treat as I will, alive or dead.” That’s why, when the weather turns and the cables come off I make it a point to pass through each day on my way to work. The snow, gone now, lets the earth breathe again, And I can’t help but think that, with the trees about to sprout And green grass just around the corner, That life has its place here too, even among the dead, And that I’m not the only one waiting for longer days and a warmer wind.

Spring in the Cemetery
