"plower" poems
#*Lord Jesus, Plower of my heart,
though the darkness descends around me
and heavy moods fall over me,
though the warm feelings of intimacy begin to fade
and encroaching melancholy threatens to set in
like a cold reversal of the winds,
still I will rejoice in Your presence with me,
for You are causing me to press beyond—
beyond the delightful sense of You
and into the delightful assurance of You.
If I know nothing else, I know that You are here,
You are faithful and You love me.
So I will keep clinging to that
when everything else seems to slip
like dust through my fingers
and all hope of good things
in this life grows dim.
I will cling to the promise
that You are clinging to me,
that You’ve got me no matter what,
that You are never leaving or letting go.
For You are the unchanging I AM
in my ever-changing circumstances,
through my ever-shifting emotions,
over my ever-shaking life
and around my ever-feeble heart.
Here is my hand, Lord Jesus.
I put it safely in Yours and trust You
to lead me through this dark night.
Work Your holy, harrowing fingers
deep into the soil of my heart
until every idol is uprooted,
every stone removed
and every broken place restored.
Thank You, Jesus.
I love You.*#

Pass up until you have it
Wait up until you need it
Tell me the password
I’ll show you and light it up
Give me a valid reason
Inhale until you’re weezing
What are the magic words
Flunked conversations
You have the pedigree
I’ll stay up until your free
Blank revelations
Song inspiration
Pass up until you need it
Don’t rush you’ll have to save it
Tell me the password
I’ll show you and light it up.
They give you lame advices
Trippin’ the lane you’re passing
Timely decisions
They’re on a mission
Talkative boy’s on fire
He gets the double score
He does no picking
Swimming on double rivers
—
I’m just another option
The secondary mission
When he’s out partying
Practically speaking
Pass up until you need it
Wait up until you got it
Tell me the password
I’ll show you and fire it up
Give me a valid reason
Inhale until you’re weezing
What are those magic words
Anticipating
Stay put your inner spirits
Hit it until you miss it
What is the password
Tell me the magic words
My life is very tragic
One hundred percent logic
No fun and happy games
To feed your spirit
Show me your hidden feelings
Give me a point for living
Anticipations
And convolutions
—
Pass up until you say it
Wait up until you keep it
Tell me the password
I’ll show you and light it up
Give me a valid lesson
Inhale until you’re teasing
What are the magic words
Dumped conversations
Never to be belonging
Clingy from floor to ceiling
Am I assuming
This love is blooming?
I’ll take you up the mountains
Reserve a room what happens
I don’t initiate
The pathway to heavens
You may be here just wond’ring
Why are we doing nothing
I am a loser
But never a user
Now you’re showing your body
You are getting too naughty
Tell me the password
I’ll keep it then light it up
—
Igniting the inner senses
Decluttering all the messes
What is the password
Tell me, I’ll act it up
Pass up until you see it
Wait up until you touch it
Tell me the password
I’ll show you and fire it up
