Samson

 Samson.


Was I like Samson in my defiance,

in rebellious self reliance?

Overlooking you in a field of grain,

Forgetting you are the source of strength

Blinded by love and beauty

not clearly seeing my duty

or my calling and direction

as to be of God’s reflection.


To love and to lose,

To see an anger consume.

To see a God forgotten,

By the scent of perfume


It was my dichotomous loyalty

and heart’s duality

that has rendered me to calamity


He was blind when Samson saw,

what I now believe I see

That along these pillared stone lined walls,

My enemy is me.

A little Sleep and Slumber

  We’re setting our clocks for doomsday and sleeping away our lives. Walking in fear through the worlds shadows, small from mockery by evil...
