    But a topical one, perhaps.

  • Attitude

    I hate that it breaks my mom that I’m hurting. I know that it’s somehow my fault. But I’m not giving myself a guilt trip over it. I start to sometimes, then halt. Reframe those negative thoughts there, my Son. Turn them, instead into gratitude. It’s not at all what happens to you! It’s only…

    I Start Poems on Twitter out of Habit

    I never intend to post there. I just cut/paste here for you guys to enjoy. This is too long anyway. I ain’t paying to tweet poetry no one will read. How many millions of years have I done this, Lord?Just give me some kind of clue.I know that I’ve done it—I’ve been here before.I feel…

  • THE BARBERRY BUSH

    THE BARBERRY BUSH

    by Jones Verse. I’ve been studying this guy’s poetry lately and this sonnet here put anything I’ve ever written to shame. I’m not coming down too hard on myself. I am a dang good poet. I am better than 99% of the world population. I have a lot to be proud of, but it’s also…

    The Road to Enlightenment

    You think you love the worldBut really you love God.You think that it’s a lonely road,But alone, you never trod.For God is always with you,Issuing directions from the heart.I know that’s not enlightenment.But I think it’s a start.

  • Give Jesus the Controller

    I’m really good at giving other people the controller growing up the eldest of 4 kids. I was very selfless with my video game usage but remember at one time we had Ninendo 64 and 4 controllers. Mario Kart and Golden Eye tournaments were epic entertainment. I was very good at video games you had…

  • 1999

    They use Masonic Names!Stop falling for their games!They dress in Masonic clothes.What the heck are those?I’m talking about officials.Come on, wake up. It’s time.It’s been this obvious since at least1999.

  • Sick

    Sick

    I might be grateful later,Right now I’m angry I exist.I don’t get why I have to suffer.What the heck is this? It’s been over 6 months nowAnd no end to the pain.And I am sick and tired ofComplaining yet again!

  • God is in Control

    I’ve got to learn to be okay.No matter how I feel.I have to remind myself this isA dream and nothing’s real.I’ve got to remind myself that I’mAn immortal soul.Death is an illusion.God is in control.

  • Praying to You

    Praying to You

    I’m trying to be sincere, I just wantGod to hold me near.Save me from this Hell I’m inI’m drowning here again.Please, Lord, give me your strength.I’m cracking up at length.I don’t know how to go on living.I dedicate my life to giving.Please just whisper in my heart.I know you’re there, God,That’s a start.And tell me…

  • Devoted

    God’s going to take care of me somehow.It’s so hard to let go and trust.It’s been 48-years and They’ve got me this far.Devotion is a must.And I am devoted.I sing praise to GodAnd write poetry to Them all day.I’ve just got to stop worrying.There’s no use in hurrying.I’m not dying yet,At least I don’t think…

  • Don’t Know What to Call This

    I’ve hated this world for so long,I’ve tried not to be in it.I stopped trying to live.I gave up trying.That’s no way to win the pennant.I feel so bad now and i just want to feel good.I don’t care what it takes, I will do it.Just show me the path, Lord! Why am I blind?I…

  • Do Me a Favor

    Read this aloud, or in your head if you must, but with lots of emotion behind it, because that’s how it sounds to me in my head when I read it. Just in the voice of this absolutely insane person I happen to still think I am for some bizarre reason. God just put on…

  • No Longer

    No Longer

    I no longer wish for an end to the pain.Simply for the means to endure it.Maybe being okay with the pain (and the rain…)Will eventually ensure it.It’s got to be worth trying.I’ve tried freaking out.That only made the pain worse.And perhaps accepting the state that I’m inSomehow will lead to anEnd to this curse.
