    you fell asleep up there

    I heard you from the hills
    the creator’s silent song of love
    you can speak it in the night
    when you would leave your body
    because on earth we know no empty

    everyone, express everything for me
    I don’t want to say it first
    I just want to agree, transmit emotive response
    feel like you know, without me saying
    feel like you felt it, when I felt it
    the world should sing; little sun burnt lovers on the lake
    take your bright red hands and feel what I have felt
    say it then, and I will affirm from here
    …
    let the waterfall
    fall from the highest rock
    onto another’s face
    I will hear it from here
    the bliss in the voice
    which bursts out the deepest expression
    to feel this way is to
    is to feel sooo this way!

    I will smile from here,
    I will love it from here. I will know where you are
    I will have been there.

    I want to agree with you. I don’t want to say anything first… let me live and walk along and repeat the Word and rephrase the way I meant to say He is love and He is good and He is… etc.
    speak. I just want to love it. speak. I just want to hear it. I just want to love you in it, from here, I want to feel all of it.

    ……

    I’m quiet and you thought you heard me but
    what I was saying
    was under no intentions. of which hell can stay full of
    I am still silent and you hear what your listening to over what I am not communicating over what you’re listening to
    here here here I am tell like I am someplace here enough to be a place you could be but, alas there is yet still lonely rivers running without a river to run along side, there is still water, there are snake lakes, but I cannot help but feel that they feel alike and unalone. each eventually ascending and descending with all each othere. aall each other…

    I heard it,
    You speaking,
    under violin strings
    the long sound residing
    every answer we needed
    under heaven’s open light
    we walked in with the morning
    Spoke onto my canvas mind
    the colors of love

    I heard it under heaven,
    as the long sound of light
    barely opened the canvas sky,
    we partook in the symphony of
    strings on our minds
    considering You speaking
    still unready, You spoke
    the answers of love
    the colors we needed

    maybe I’m just flippant. not wise or trusting God,
    just an idiot.
    it’s an easy out, to lift my hands and watch is all fall apart
    praise God for the tragedy and beat myself for the sin

    tired of making plans. tired of not making plans.
    have I done everything I could do? have I already tried too hard to pursue what He doesn’t want for me?

    money is not funny. money is unlike anything human. a curse we let infect our everything. it is absolutely reasonable, while still absolutely absurd. it implies wisdom, but wisdom sees it is vain, but somehow still money wisdom attains..
    faint heart never won fair lady
    well faint heart never did anything really
    I feel like I can handle God throwing up road blocks and yield signs, and I’m okay with bouncing off ’em and moving on trusting that He knows and is guiding me.
    Am I set on anything? have I ever felt strongly about anything unusually uncommon? I think I tend to feel strongly about most everything. does that make it less meaningful? to raise the base value?..

    we have seen you
    under ramparts and tramways

    brick by brick, the corners all faded hues,

    the workers hands in full design

    we have seen you in leafy things

    fallen seed without need of us; instead the sun,

    the sky, the rain all pour the earth

    under city streets and waterways

    the flower or weed who worked

    its way up our misconstruction

    breathed you in from greener things.

    the breath which is pure oxygen

    met you in a pasture

    breath in pure weather, breath under

    aged oak’s heavy arms

    felt you from a mountain range

    where every sense assumes

    the stimulus of sight

     

    but we saw you without skin
    (all ripped from the bone)
    and out the vineyard they came
    connoisseurs of the blood

    now under heaven there remains
    testimonies without love
    connoisseurs with exquisite tongues
    they teach to tell and unteach
    each man from his eyes, each heart from its soul
    make choices for coin
    ‘give to me as is mine, as it is written, give to me
    that she may all be mine’

    you have seen us under the sun…
    we can hear you still
    I cannot think now
    what you could be thinking…

    I want to show you my righteousness
    I want to boast in it, some sense of pride of what I would phrase as “God’s accomplishment in me”
    which would be the most true way to say it, but, my heart would not speak it as vividly.

    God has a better design than me.

    I just ordered a Captain Crunch from Starbucks. and I feel cool thereby.
    I can’t fathom why.
    makes me feel IN.
    on the IN crowd.

    it’s funny how universal that desire is.
    I can’t help but consider my Love, and how He has designed us as such.
    I can’t think of a better example of being IN than through Christ, and what He’s done to get us there.
    I had a friend that has labored at his job at Starbucks and that paid for me to have this information to feel IN.
    how much more then.. has Christ labored for us to walk right up, and feel IN His kingdom.
    my analogy is so extremely shy of expressing the entirety of the situation. but. it was the stimulus for the thought

    ☐

    feel good about myself- regard not that I am a financial idiot.

    Indian

    It is not his virginity
    Or your extra love sleeping
    Not his commitment
    Or your ‘caged bird song’
    And it truly is not
    The swift unconscious theft
    Which stole each of our breaths

    But that you were an Indian giver
    At the end of it
    And by contract you
    Made him one too

    I cannot gain repentance
    not the will or goal
    not the ability or grace

    ‘…effectith much’ well, shame to say I don’t see
    how one can be righteous to extents
    beyond Blood rights inherit

    perceived things considered
    there is not conscience without lunatic
    unprogressive patterns
    ten thousand times repeat the whole, in scale, of
    being left out and head under removeable emotions
    tárry a long while inside
    for the plate to heat and houseshells to dismiss your taste

    …hermit claim the lower self
    tárr’ the way you sit to change
    tárr’ the how you tip off your conscience
    move like a wildebeest
    move like the wind is feet always
    racing you across the world in separate a platform
    you in landmarks graded unequal(so really why bother)
    he in trees and leaves to toss, sand to splash up, ebbs to carry and ride along,
    heat to find with unconsideration, all this to say
    we both are here in love unequal but

    serving Unknowably intimate atmospherical love honey
