By God
By God, we were sealed, when we were spiritually healed,
Sealed by The Savior Himself, His seal appears in stealth,
To all outside of Jesus Christ, but we’re sealed in this life,
In a New Life, God will reveal, in all, marked with His Seal.
By God, we were saved, when sinfully lost and depraved,
Saved by His Spirit above, through God’s wonderful love,
It was God, who loved us first, when we were at our worst,
In spite of how we behaved, by His Grace we were saved.
By God, we were sought, as new creations being wrought,
While we were not seeking Him, truly lost in a world of sin,
He not only found all of us, but, led us to The Lord Jesus,
By Whom, we were bought, saving all who He had sought.
By God, we were redeemed, unbelievable it really seemed,
Yet He bought us on earth, imputing to us His Son’s worth,
It is The Lord’s Righteousness, that God has granted to us,
His Righteousness is what beams, from those He redeems.
The Spirit’s seal is our guarantee, that we shall live eternally,
Saved out of this world of sin, God’s Spirit now lives within,
It was God Who sought His own, from His Heavenly Throne,
Redeeming men, in this life, to live forever with Jesus Christ.

I cannot forget
I cannot forget
how unnoticed
for a week we follow tracks
where women terrorists
go to a native village
to trade their bodies
and they bring back food
and leave weapons, ammunition, landmines
and hand-grenades at that place
how that women
break away unnoticed from that village
and plant landmines in a road
and a farmer and his wife and child
with their pickup truck lie blown to bits
and I wonder if those people
did not also want a life?

In the dark night I load rockets
In the dark night I load rockets
and stand away
while they are fired against the enemy
and I see them drawing red lines
with long flames
burning beyond them
and its like as a child
when I went to the drive-in
and saw how they shoot men off
into space,
on the way to the moon
but these rockets are aimed
at T55 tanks and BTR armoured cars
and soldiers of the Cuban and FAPLA enemy
that burn in unquenched flames
when at a distance the deadly arrows rain down
and I can smell the fragrance of death,
gunpowder and prosperous
on the evening breeze
while I watch the fireworks.

THIS DAY
It was inheritance of pain. I should
have known. Incontinent, she was scared
to hug me: the child, after the rape. Shepherding
the lacerations: petrified, a body of lad
floating in a sewage tank; a short circuit in
an incubator, row of infants, life snuffed out in flames;
of being. I want to know ontology, need a
spinal surgery; somebody wants to abort a fetus,
because of mistaken identity, an alien egg
was implanted; racing time, bitter and corrosive,
it happned for the first time; karma, you say.
I don’t agree, you need camel’s milk to clear
your thoughts, like clenched fist against the
darkness; the little child, lad, infants, mortality after
a wrong calculation; the test tubes and petri-dishes,
need despoiling while the soul screams in a
cage; I am ready to jump out of the window,
stories down on the legends, unburdened!

Only once in a lifetime
There is a kind of flower
that only once a year
opens her buds
and when the moon rises full and bright
shows her colours
while people await
the appears of her flowers
in silence in a temple
as if she is holy.
Only once in a lifetime
there is a girl that is like an angel
without any match
and that woman
I have found in you.

Night
The joy that you bring
when we are alone with one white candle
glowing in our room
while you draw me into a hot embrace
covers all other things,
even sand, grass, flowers and trees
that is outside,
causes me to want the sun
to leave the blue sky
to have you near to me
and to dream while you are here.

DYING SCREAMS
Shall we go like innocents with heavy
breathing in the pool of blood to find
the innerconnectivity of a boldly beautiful
death? In the open pit of an ancient gold mine?
There was a loss of hidden dance, in the
cancer striken human chain, chiseled on the
grey walls of history. The artifacts stolen, even
the ankle-bells of a toddler had gone up for a sale.
A visual oval gives a liable comment. A
flame nauseates a baby doll. The yellow hornbill
puts up a fight for the sake of memories.
There is a huge silence of the rocks, moaning inwardly
None of me was a god. A simple slum’s promised
dream.Hungry roads will lead to a ruined temple.

Yesterday, Today And Tomorrow
Tomorrow may be a day away, but will be just like today,
Another day to live for Christ, in this moment we call life,
Another day to follow God, led by Christ’s staff and rod,
A day similar in every way, to that one we call yesterday.
For time, they’re all cast, as present, future and the past,
The present is the day we live, often spoken of as a gift,
With the future yet to be, which, shall extend into eternity,
And behind us is the past, that time where memories last.
Though the past is behind, memories bring it to our mind,
Of that time we first believed, and the Savior we received,
Much of God we didn’t know, so the Lord helped us grow,
While learning to live this life, for The Savior, Jesus Christ.
In the present God uses us, all who belong to Christ Jesus,
As our life for God is unfurled, as His witness in this world,
Being a voice for God’s Word, to a world that hasn’t heard,
The Truth in God’s Revelation, leading to His only salvation.
Once in Christ they do believe, Eternal Life they will receive,
Life beyond this present time, all ordered by God’s Design,
As He leads us in tomorrow, in all that joy, pain and sorrow,
To a future with Jesus Christ, beyond today into eternal life.

Faithfully Sharing Truth
For our witness, a sure proof, is that we are walking in Truth,
Living out The Truths of God, wherever in this world we trod,
Abiding in The Lord Christ Jesus, in His Light as we witness,
As in our lives Truth is unfurled, amidst an unbelieving world.
It is God’s Truth we boast in, being believers saved from sin,
Our pride God will condemn, but, we boast Christ, to all men,
As God’s Truths drive our life, to draw others to Jesus Christ,
Displaying God’s faithfulness, to all men through our witness.
The mission we are to fulfill, is the sharing of Christ’s Gospel,
God’s Gospel of saving Grace, through The Lord, all by faith,
In a time with many deceived, we preach what we’ve believed,
Staying faithful to The Lord, in a world where Truth is ignored.
Beyond standing on The Word, our ways are not just inferred,
As Godly character is a must, when in God we place our trust,
With a walk in accord with the life, of our Savior, Jesus Christ,
Living out our life with integrity, as witnesses that all shall see.
Today, many profess to believe, on a path to simply deceive,
God’s Truth is all we must preach, to all God desires to reach,
Standing on the Only Foundation, Jesus Christ, our Salvation,
The Truth all men must believe, so eternal life they will receive.
