be washed away (with spoken word inserts by soulsurvivor) When I die don't cry for me In my Father's arms I'll be The wounds this world left on my soul Will all be healed and I'll be whole Sun and moon will be replaced By the light of Jesus Face And I will not be ashamed For my Savior knows my name. - chorus - It don't matter where you bury me I'll be Home and I'll be FREE It don't matter where I lay All my tears be washed away SS insert - Persecution I'll expect. It's not surprising. Folks reject. Still I LOVE my Lord so dear I'll forgive and have no fear Faced with evil on all sides In the Lord I will abide No force of hell can remove Thee It don't matter where you bury me --- Gold and silver blind the eye Temporary riches lie Come and eat from heaven's store Come and drink and thirst no more So weep not for me my friend When my time below does end For my life belongs to Him Who will raise the dead again - chorus - SS insert - I will pass. That much is clear. I'll leave my tabernacle here Life is short, the time doth fly So I'll go to kiss the sky Then I'll know all mysteries It don't matter where you bury me A song written by Julie Miller Performed by Emmy Lou Harris and Selah (this version is below) With inserts by SoulSurvivor

all my tears
Passover Moon's ****** hue eclipses the ordinary in veils of miraculousness obscure rouge halos illume elliptical arcs guiding footsteps in a righteous exodus across troubling waters forsaking hovels with painted doorjambs dripping lambs blood Mezuzahs bleat memories holy murmurs bespeaking lamentations of ancient hosannas our desperate supplications flesh out a distressed humanity seeking deliverance from the vengeance is mine Elohim may it be nigh we wait watching for an always faithful Good Deliverer to honor the covenant to lift despair with a liberating yoke lugging leaden burdens Oh Holy of Holies banished in the wisp of a bitter herb our distended bellies fill with unleavened grace sweet droplets of manna consumed with extreme gratitude arriving at journeys end to promised lands fully satiated and free to rest in sanctuaries of radical hospitality luxuriating in an infinite abundance for all sojourners Selah Music Selection: Big Mama Thornton Go Down Moses Oakland 4/15/14 jbm

We give thanks for all who have enriched our lives with their presence; may we honor them by always being present for others. We give thanks for those who selflessly serve in our armed forces, for the quiet sacrifices of their family and friends and for those who witness for peace and work to end the conflicts of war. We are thankful for the tears of the poor and their example of fortitude in the daily struggle to live and for those that extend a hand and offer a vision of hope and a pathway to advancement. We are thankful for our rich abundance and the blessed spirit that leads us to generously share it with others. We are thankful for wise thoughtful teachers and students that are eager to use that wisdom to better the world. We are thankful for courageous truth tellers and the hard truths they speak and to people of good will that are open and willing to listen and act on those truths. We are thankful for the care givers and their veneration of life and to those who receive care and fill the heart of the giver with fathomless gratitude. We are thankful for people of humility and good will and their blessed example of quiet service and grace. We are thankful for children as an embodiment of our hopes and the future flowering of our greatest aspirations. We are thankful for our animal friends and their example of trusted companionship and unconditional love. We are thankful for sobriety and our ability to discern, see, discover and experience the daily grace life confers upon us. We are thankful for those who are no longer with us, may our time on earth be a blessing to others as they were to us. We are thankful to a higher power that keeps us right sized, humble and grateful for one more day on life's path.

May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer. Good Morning Beloved It is good to be among you this morning. Let us pray…. Gracious Lord As we sojourn the pathways of life You have brought us to the places Of ecstatic splendorous peaks You have blessed us with resounding joys You have filled us with good things The grace of your unconditional love Is made manifest in the abundant life you have promised to all your children We bless you Lord for your provision And your unfailing unrequited love You have also humbled us Lord With times of perplexing trial, deep sorrows and pointed loss Our earthly journey has led us to places of dread, devastation sickness and pending death Our plans and aspirations Have turned to dust Our eyes fill with tears Our crestfallen hearts have hardened We fail to receive the balm of love We have been routed We have lost the battle We have been conquered by separation, sin and despair The spirit of life Has evaporated From our bodies All that remains Are dry bones Scattered in the valley of death hidden by the shadows In the nadir of our lives Yet your abiding love remains the strong Present Helper calling us to your light May we rise from our Afflictions as Lazarus did when called by his beloved friend Jesus May your grace anoint Our ears with the sound of The Great Resurrectors voice May you stir our hearts With the wisdom of your will May you bless our lips With the grace of prophecy That we may Prophesy to the broken And brittle bones of our lives Prophecy to the bones so they may be joined With sinew and flesh again May your words Become flesh May we walk again In the land of the living And rejoin the beloved At the table of Your abundant grace In The Good Deliver's Name We pray...

FLASHLIGHT If you stumbled onto it It would underwhelm you In its common stature. Four and a half inches. No more than A fistful of Black aluminum. I found it on his shelf As I was cleaning out The apartment. I'm still taken by the things That were of value to him And the care he gave In the preservation. It was his grateful heart Taking nothing for granted Protecting tools with consideration Not unlike the way He would care for his friends. It immediately meant something to me. Like the orange pocket knife. (Orange His favorite color, Knives His collection.) This small utility Reminded me of him. Understated, yet powerful Easy to handle but efficient Erasing darkness Wherever he went. I rolled it in my fingers And the tiny beacon Called to me... I possessed it as he possessed me. The diminuitive tool Lays among the other Integral neccesities Of my blue collar Bread winning World. Intentional or not I find myself In more dark places than Before Just so I have excuses to use it And say his name Every occasion that I pick it up. Inside the dark recesses of a water heater - Devon. Underneath the leaking tub - Devon. In the closet of burned out motors Impossible to reach bolts And rusted designs - Devon. Then sometimes Standing at the door of my van A daydream breaks While a light blinks in my eyes, My fingers sending Morse code Involuntarily From my soul - Devon, Devon, Devon, Devon. Regardless the darkness It has no power Over the light So I reach for him And roll him around In my memories And the blackness Is beaten back By his goodness. Every closet of the spirit Brightened in that indelible smile Where sadness slumps away Ashamed that it even tried. Selah. (You are the brightest one, my son.)

we are one of a kind...(kin)
3-1-2015 I remember yesterday. The morning birds notes gleefully played. I remember yesterday. I remember yesterday. The brightest morning there was seen, And yet there was no sun to beam. The wispy air and tired eyes, The devotion we all strive and try. My God, Selah. I remember yesterday. I remember yesterday. The day less fatigued from creaking souls. A new perception, new sights, and new goals. Classes flying, life goodbye-ing. Joyous day filled without even trying. I remember yesterday. I remember yesterday. The jokes he told. Simply comedy gold. The smile he gave. Mentality leaping from a grave. I am renewed and alive. I can't wait to see him and thrive. I remember yesterday. I remember yesterday. Two laughs blended to a familiar tune. Those girls brought me hope, and good fortune. To see them laugh, and smile; So hard, so deep, it's been a while. My sun and moon and stars above The pattern of their love. I remember yesterday. I remember yesterday. Yet yesterday is yanked from possibilities. Only reminiscing in soliloquys. Pointless to wish for it reoccurring. Now for new memories with a base for ushering. But I will always remember yesterday.

I need your soft voice I need it still I need your soft voice Heavy and Steel To take and to tame I see the beach and the waves Healing my wounds Changing my name

Selah
the Webster's, the Merriam's, residents of the Oxford say not, an exclamation or a noun, but an action, a doing word, not so much... as a poet~sorcerer digressing rules, is my input appetizer, poems, my exported entrées all posted to be dessert for all the sweet tooth parts of you all to feast on this process, when I hallelujah you... "Praise the Lord" the translation literal but sojourn herewith me for a few extants, together, let's invigorate, expand the understanding of an ever expansive definition... if I ever fall out of love, with natural words, can no longer hallelujah/scribe to memorialize why we claim, we are alive.... hallelujah's praises for you all the master designers' praiseworthy creations, an extension of themselves, they said in each human godlike spark hallelujah installed there is nothing more godlike than being human, so when I hallelujah I praise each and everyone it is a mixologist's dream, some of it a thank you, some of it a your welcome, all of it a celebratory exercise, in appreciation, of the finery of what we can be come greater through the words of our blood transfused Oh! act out Hallelujah, write it as if you must urgent do Hallelujah, do it not just now but, Selah!

Can Hallelujah be Used as a Verb?
Uhrde' eahai’ el. EaShe'sheti... EaShe'sheti Eye... I're... Selah... Selase'eye'... Esh'real... Esh'uriel... Eshurd-ay-I... Jamowhe'... Ashanti E'yai... Ashanti Ashanti Ashanti I... This daylight does not live in a box of dreams. Selam Malen Kaye'm. For surely the angel of light worships the dream. Sela amo' I.... Ashanti I. The color of feather. Selah. In truth (light) of light… darkness falls. Crimena is not committed until pentance is revealed. The spirit of Peter (Pentecost) weighs the salvation of Selah. Selahse' 'I" Our King worships life work for substance at the tree of life. Shanti Lyre'… Ashanti Lyre’ A shanti... 'I' The Prayer of Shame... Our Change. Azhasurea 'I' Azhasuras. For the measure of man has not chalice; the chaste' is not measured in another eye. It is the spy Gabriel in the urn of the grail. Uriel… Gabriel… Michiael… Samiael… Matisyaweih… Ehyre’ Eshre’I el… Eshurdae'i… Danae'l… Eshurdae'i el Selah Sela' se' amare' ah. Amen. There are two at two chali'. There are two at two chalices. Chali. Cali'. Californiael. The me'rcha'nt of war is walking backward out of the grail for chalice. Shall I. Make Michiael a sword. Or shall I make Michiael. Ashanti I. Amen. California= Caliphas. Chi'el. Ashure'Ire'. My sword. The earth found underneath the Prophet Daniel.

The Lion's Sin
Shoulda gone sooner, Mighta helped, he said, it's going to all come down, ground up. All the concrete and asphalt and plastic, maybe even leave a little of that won't hurt, could help build randomness back in the the path of least resistance But no bigger than the biggest pieces left at Jerusalem, fill all the holes. that was a stutter, that double the there, 3 lines up, I stutter when I write, not as bad as some But I pretty much tamed spelchek when I renamed her. She likes being thought of as Spelchek, my servant, as opposed to evil Spellchick who bewitched by keys, made my tittalk sound plumb dumb. So Spelchek respects some of my stutters as honest ensamples of thinking wait. What am I saying Selah Like the psalmist, right? The the thing is oddly broken lines are part of the meandering mode of meaning being found under rocks, aha Sisyphus, we're in your book!, Too cool! Happy whatever, Jah, you, too. Back to Cousin Kenny, who went to inspect the city, seeking some good he might do. He laughed when he got back, 'said maybe we can find them guys that let on they was able to levitate the Pentagon, back then, you know, they was steeped in lies, and they loved to tell 'em, loved to lie, prospero, ever **** one prosperous liars. But, now, their old age, they coulda stopped believin' some big lies by now. Who would know? Any way, the cities, as built, must be un built, NOT DESTROYED, those are the good hard labour of good people, doing the best with what they had, we take apart mistakes, we destroy lies. Angelic beings, aliens, without papers, if you would give us half a chance we could show you what a good idea possessed human can do… Trust me, don' laugh Close your eyes How would this world look if it were designed for life, and that, more abundantly. An idea, not a dogma. Life, have it… how? Lest, now, now is living, and we can do it better if we find a reason to hope, which was why cousin kenny went to the city, in the first place.

10/8/2013 Hey Ive been away for quite a while, seriously missing my new found family here at Hello Poetry...kind of going through some personal, professional and financial challenges as we all do...I've allowed those that dont mean me well the "temporary" victory...and even felt like giving up and throwing in the towel at one point (but not quite to the point of death)...but I feel that we all reach this point at least one time in a life time of many experiences whether good or bad. I haven't had the desire to write or express myself because I am stuck and wallowing in my own self pity and despair, depleted of strength. Some have caused me great malice, and up until this point I've resisted to the impulses and feelings to lash out...back, against them, but a person can only take so much and I know that violence only begats violence, and ignorance, ignorance, so please...can someone, anyone...revive me, resusitate me...and just breathe life into these dry bones that have become shallow and empty with thoughts of anger, frustration, doubt, procratination and guilt...just shoot me a few words of encouragement...lift me up...I will surely pay it forward when I regain my strength and confidence...for I AM NOT a quitter....selah ~Dwayne~

This life. Nothing more than dust and dirt. Nothing more than a pause for breath. Yet You chose to speak to these skin and bones. Selah Speak Lord. Let Your voice touch this weary heart. Let Your Spirit pour like eternal rain. Selah Speak Lord. When these lips don't know how to praise. Speak Lord. When these hands are too heavy to raise. Speak and set me ablaze. iamthe_avatar ©2017

Speak
The exact representation of deception is likened to a delusional cognition which tunnels its way through craggy mountain ecosystems of the prefrontal cortex. The impairment of your executive functioning is evident, oh grandiose master of self-aggrandisement. It is now 04.20hrs in the Britannic pastures where desert storms are a figment of extravagant wishes to be recognised. Although it is charmingly magical to harken to your lunacy, it is mercenary of the battalions to fathom the pathology of your blatant insignificance within the universe of vain imaginations. Hereford is the base of winning, if you are brazen enough to engage with the feat. Selah, my psychotic expression of wishful psychopathy. One more thing: please check your spelling.

A Response to the Presumed Perpetrator
I'd rather know than believe But I believe in you Knowing you'll never show Knowing I'll never know Yet still Believing you're all that matters I don't trust things I can't see through They're as trustworthy as I am Solid, taking up space Faith in God, faith in you I sometimes have trouble finding A difference in the two Faith's a gift Belief's a risk Selah I'd rather have faith than to know Walking the mundane streets of this life I've been given A little uncertainty is a good thing So long as you're the central theme Magnetic north A lighthouse guiding me home When I get there I'll know Arms entwined, dying to faith and belief Into eternal life of omniscience Knowing As we are known Selah
