Cuban Tree Frog
It's a beans and rice kind of week, and maybe if were good we'll get Ramen
And as I pull up to the 7-11, there's a lady with an outstretched hand
She's holding on to a bucket as the...

The Path I Thought
Moss and Oak leaves
Where you fell or were planted, but here it is you have thrived
In a place where others could just barely stay alive
But most of them have died
Your beauty runs too deep, past...

Giants, So Small You Can't See Them
I don't see how being small is anything less than feeding everything that would starve without you
And so as small as I am and as many of me as there are, what is it that you do
But as I laugh at your...

This Problem of Evil
So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up to them, and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first." John 8:7 NKJV

Being Popular
It wasn't for the lack of scales, or eating things that make my stomach turn
Those barbs that pierce through careless skin, and later start to burn
Its not for these we can't be friends, for...

Persistent in what she wants, and if her heart is so inclined
Home work and chores, they don't seem to catch her eye
But has...

Mothers
Honor thy father and thy mother
Who is my mother? She is the woman that gave birth to me, but that in itself would not be so noble an act, since it is common to all women who reproduce. My mother was a sinner, frail and hurt by her own mom. She was born to a mother that had a very limited...

Lost... Again
It's beautiful, but we're lost, and soon the falling sun will hide the trail
There's no opening here and no safe place to rest
The brush is thick and though I'm looking for things with scales

Lofty Places
None are more unjust in their judgments of others than those who have a high opinion of themselves. - Charles Spurgeon

Resurrection Song
So wide awake, no meta me
But why was that so easy
To in disdain of root
And firmly planted seed
Despise the truth of Word
The very thing I need
To be lost in a detail
A theology so frail
It sounded...

I see You now, but I will see You then
Focus on the fade, on the clouded eye of my borrowed frame
And the words that I proclaim, as one that is not ashamed
And though I see you for now this way, through atmospheres of gray
One day just...
