Every grave spans my reach,
My fingertips caress the inscriptions,
Riding the edges, curves, and corners of marble and limestone.
The fibers of dandelions and lome tingle on my bare feet
As I walk into the shadowed curving slopes in my viewpoint.

There are too many arms,
Too many teeth,
Too many bubbled brains trapped in this soiled earth.
Overcrowded housing is all I can see
When I watch each decrepit body lie stagnant under the deceiving fertilized grass,
Mixed into the here-and-there planted trees,
Too few for the ratio of bodies to land mass.

Please bury me inside a tree,
Let my life give back to things ahead of me.
Make me soil,
Wash your children in me,
Grow pumpkins through my eye sockets.
Burn my body and sprinkle me dustily through the universe.
Let my hair travel the worm holes forming the sun
And my fingernails circle the belt of Orion.

Save me from my final ultimatum
By granting me passage into the stars.
My rant about the wastefulness of graveyards. Just imagine if instead of a tombstone we planted a tree above every grave! What a beautiful place it would be to visit.

Your watermelon vine fingers
Caress my sunflower stalk spine.
We dig our trowel toes into the lome
Of my mattress,
Cover our shoulders in frost-evading fleece.
I hear your heart ripen under your skin.
I smell the heat inside your lungs
Growing and expanding in the August crisp.
You seed a whispered kiss on my lip.

You are planted inside me,
digging into me,
And I bind to your stem
With my peach flowered palm.
We bloom at the first ray of morning as
I weave deeper into your trellis arms.
Our breaths match the pull of the wind.
You touch your forehead to my breast,
Our stems heaving.

Here we grew our love.
Here we grew the foundation of our separation.
YOU CAN HELP ME
In a real world not a dream
Like Noah was sent, so I am
Take no shoe, clothes, no bread
Thus says the Lord

I am no disobedience to the heavenly vision
Beside the sea of Lome, we begin to fulfill the great commission
Men and women then, they listen to the gospel
And God make a change to come in so many lives

The “Hannahs” sang a new song to God Almighty for His Greatness
Captive were set at liberty
Oh! Thy kingdom stand firm on the Rock forever

It is time to go back home
Our Father, who seeth from heaven
You have made thy salvation free to all

This work is done, how do go back home
I was glad that I was sent
The lord has chosen me, and I came here to do His will
My heart is fill with prayers before the Lord for mercy

Thou God of Elijah, sent my divine helpers
This land is sucker of man’s goodness
This is the Jezebel of the end time who kills the prophets of God
They are drinkers of blood and eaters of flesh,
And make sacrifices to idols, they are sodomites

My wife is crying and waiting for me
She is lonely after a five days wedding
How do I get back home?
Somebody help me, if you real care

I knew that the Lord will speak to your heart
Don’t imagine it, it is real
A pastor needs your help, take me out of here

Let my angel appear in this wilderness
I am a married missionary
Can you hear any message from the Lord?
The Lord can use you, if you are willing
Blessed are they who give a cup of water to one of His prophets
Greater blessing for them that give rather than receiving

How can I go back to my wife from here?
She has a storey, if you can see her for me
The bridegroom needs money to go there and take her home
Let God use you! Let God use you!! Let God use you!!!

Waking up random hours of the night
Haven't been able to write
Always behind the scenes
Feeling trapped meant to escape
Around so much hate not feeding into it
They try to flip it lome Jedi mind tricks
Someone in their mood ruining the day
Overcome by focused on work
Trying to break this writers block
Asking what you want this project to be
How do you prepare for the outcome
