snakeater

the only challenge that lies in front of me
appears every other day like pertinent pain
to match the nonchalance of the day before
but you odd 3 will soon be vanquished, gone

lost in trans


obviously you don't understand me
if you waste your time trying to apologize,
forgiveness has already been granted
for your faults, i take one deep breath
and let go.
























seventy times seven times over.

kai bai bo


just as rock beats scissors
or as bruce lee beats chuck norris
maybe even as dogs beat cats
and good triumphs over evil
You conquer my soul without a loophole

chocolate


the apple doesn't fall far from the tree
if it fell from a building, it would splat

as cliche as it may sound,
writing a sonnet about love

survival is revenge


i made it out of the morning
got passed the day
reached the point of nighttime
which lasted so long

i made it out of the morning
time and time again...

an all-nighter= death a day sooner
an all-nighter= a day less of sleep
an all-nighter= petty accomplishment

1 person, 1 bread

today at church, i helped serve bread
all while speaking mandarin to everyone
the funny thing was that the english ministry
laughed at my poor accent, called me cute
while the mandarin side looked at me
with pure astonishment, as if no one
has ever said to them "ni hao"

also, there was an old man who wore
a beanie and was rather noticeable,
because he took at least 10-15 pieces of bread
and i saw him a few times today
i called him "uncle guerrilla"
he attacked the bread, then retreated
slowly depleting the tables of food

a flame


kindled by worship songs and lit by His word
i pray that God may keep me in His presence

black sea


i feel engulfed by darkness,
but that will just make the morning
seem even brighter

Christ alone

some will say "this is the one"
"the one time when i will worship the Father, Holy Spirit, and Son"
away from the world, all their worries will fade
but they'll still feel trapped the next day
well, it's almost two-thousand eleven
and a lot of folks believe that they'll be going to Heaven
yet they turn a blind eye away from the Lord
and some don't even protect His kingdom with a sword
defenseless, they'll fall to the devil
and experience suffering on a whole other level
they must understand that it is not about a mountain high,
because if their faith is based on emotion, their faith will surely die
trust your life to Christ alone
for it was He who died to atone

head over heals?

wind




if you still find yourself on a winding road
then you are blind, because there is always
a straight way to the point that you see
