Battle of Nerves vs Mental
What to do next
I wander about
I am perplexed
I want to shout
Leave me alone
Let me be
I want to moan
But then there is she
She is Smart Girl
She will not let me quit
She is a rare precious pearl
She has much grit
You are fine
You are curable
Quit your whine
You are endurable
Your lungs sing a song
Your heart is exceptionally good
Your muscles are strong
You are a forest of maple wood
You fall and almost fall
You have bouts and seasons
Where you hit a wall
Without any reasons
No one has diagnosed you
Telling you anything
No reason to worry and stew
Anxiety and depression sting
Worse than your illness
Quit being an awful bore
Live each day in its brilliance
Open the morning door and roar
Life is noble and grand
Life is pleasing and sweet
Life is unexplored land
Life is a delicious treat
Smart Girl wants to pursue
Conversion disorder and
Functional neurological disorder
Which is fine with me
The brain and nervous mechanisms
Do not efficiently communicate
Resulting in many schisms
In my neurological state
Somewhere between nerves and mental
Everyone knows I am crazy
But let us not be judgmental
We all can be a little hazy
Good news I believe
Continue the medical journey
Looking for reprieve
After six years of a debilitating tourney
What is a year or two more
Smart Girl motivates me
To continue the unfair war
And I agree
Children of Man
Who is this man
Mortals of man
Mankind of man
People of man
Who is he
Who is she
Who is thee
Who is me
But children
Made in Gods image
And we are many million
In lifes scrimmage
People of color
People of race
People of religion
People of haste
Haste to blame one another
Haste to accuse one another
Haste to hate one another
Haste to destroy one another
Do we understand
Do we care
Do we walk hand in hand
Do we stand there
Stand there in dogma
Stand there in fairness
Stand there in belief
Stand there in bareness
Naked to face God
To seek His forgiveness
Knowing I am flawed
My sin of impulsiveness
Rushing about
Wanting it all
Waiting for a give out
Not waiting for the call
The call to accept
There is more to living
But I just slept
Instead of forgiving
Forgiving my self
Forgiving my family
Forgiving my friends
Forgiving my humanity
Is it too late
To be embraced
To enter the gate
And to taste
Taste the love
Taste the goodness
Taste the mercy
Taste the assurance
No it has not past
The final chance
So be quite fast
To enter the dance
Dance with Jesus
Dance with God
Dance with the Holy Spirit
Dance with Christs bride
The Bride of Christ
Gather in Christ
Body of Christ
The church is Christ
The church is your family
The church is your base
The church is no anomaly
The church is your place
Grow in the church
Disciple in the church
Serve in the church
Reconcile in the church
Not always pretty
Not always nice
What a pity
Take my advice
Better there
Then anywhere
A house of prayer
Jesus is near
Near to our hearts
Near to our thoughts
Near to our hurts
Near to our faults
Accept His presence
Accept His gift
Accept His peace
Accept His love

In Our Country
We have made this nation
All different children women and men
Troubles part of its flirtations
Again and again
Why is the Civil War forgotten
Every time there is a trouble
A time in our history most rotten
Part of the country left in rubble
Recall the horrors of slavery
Families held against their will
And remember the bravery
Of those who fought to kill
618 thousand soldiers died
Or 6 million today
Many families cried
As their loved ones decayed
The country fought
Freedom for all
As we were taught
Please please recall
Protest today
Destroy and loot
Riot away
Most will stand moot
They let you forget
Families who paid
The blood of each vet
Long ago mislaid
Families lost loved ones
To protect our United States
Using their guns
To protect our fates
We can improve
But not with looting and shooting
Using education to make a gigantic move
Quit substituting and diluting
Substituting responsibility
And diluting our educations
Rebuild our countrys civility
And our countrys foundations
Remember the sacrifices
Of our countrys residents
Their blood suffices
Those sacrifices were no accidents
George Harrison
Too many good men
In my life
I take to paper and pen
To declare with drum and fife
They lived next door
In my favorite town
Poquoson was no bore
My favorite place hands down
Mr Harrison taught me many things
And he spent time with me
He helped expand my wings
And all his instruction was free
The main thing I learned
Was how to sail
And right the boat when overturned
When there was a great gale
But not only on the ocean
In life too
Mr Harrison had a sense of promotion
He was very ever blue
He enjoyed himself
I watched him everyday
Take toys off the shelf
He liked to play
Sailing
Fishing
Traveling
Living
He was far different than most
Not a care in the world
Or he kept them close
And did not let them whirl
Probably another good example
If you want to know the truth
Another sample
From my youth
Not him alone
His wife included
Most caring woman I have known
I have concluded
Memories and recollections
Have vast they are
Great reflections
I will never forget by far
Do Black Lives Matter
Who really cares
About another black death
Why do we need to split hairs
Killing many baby’s breath
19 million blacks aborted since it began
Now a black population of 44 million
So many women and men
So many United States citizens
30 percent of the black population aborted
More deaths for blacks than any other cause
And these numbers are congressionally reported
All of you must take a pause
Do we realize the injustice
Do we realize the crime
Do we realize the horror
Do we realize the sin
These deaths do matter
The injustice needs not to be repeated
There needs to be chatter
Abortion needs to be defeated
Why do we let it stand
Just an unjust operation
All these murders planned
Poor leadership in the nation
Who kills its own babies
Who destroys these lives
Who ruins our families
Who decimates a race and lies
Misguided people like Sangers
Misguided women oppressed for generations
Misguided individuals with little hope
Misguided politicians pandering to whom
We do not need to blame
We need to save lives
We do not need to name
We must start drives
Drives to make human life valuable
Drives to change the laws
Drives to make damnable
Drives to fight for a cause
Almost 1000 black lives per day
Lost to abortion
We need to earnestly pray
And priorities need apportion
Stop abortions now
Riot to stop abortions now
Stop the abortion murders now
Honor human life without abortions now
I am sorry we lose black men to police
I am sorry for this unnecessary evil
I am a Christian who loves peace
I am for a revival or upheaval
Every human life is treasured
Lord God made each one of us
Our lives are truly measured
God wants us to make a fuss
Save his image bearers
Save his precious children
Save his majesty and glory
Save every black life
Black lives do matter
Blacks are made in Gods image
Blacks are precious in Gods eyes
Blacks deserve much much better
If you want to
Riot over the evil of abortion
Cherish each life
Fight for all human life and dignity
This is the main issue
What are humans worth
Every single man women and child
Priceless from conception to eternity
