Midnight

May my words
who I am in love
give you pleasure
so pure
so alive
so jubilant

This ravishing of love
may it be without fault
may it become sanctified
my energy is my love

You're so right

It's whatever you want
you can't mess up

What's this at my heels
keeping me from standing up straight
what's this
constantly subjecting me to futility
poisoning me
with the sin and death
of an un-continuing inherited city

What's this
striking me at the back and bottom of my feet
inflicting me
and making suffering out to be my every change

God drew the bottom line with Eve
concerning her and the serpent's enmity

Out of me
the strength of survival
and a life of blessing bleeds

Was it not the woman
who was cursed first
and what does this mean?

Have I now,
in this,
come to the final battle for victory?
having prevailed over Adam's curse
as with the sacrifice on the tree

Or is it the Spirit
I am wrongfully breaking
by attempting to leave this place of my calling
even if to lovingly receive being made more complete
as I wish
to the utmost
to have my promises
and be made so free

I have nothing
of stone or earth
but to sink down
and die
and yet
though it is lawful for me
to concern myself
in this calling
with corrupted things
it would not edify
as with enlightenment now
the corruption of doing so
is Babylonian
of which I am supposed to leave
and have my filthiness of the flesh and spirit
be made clean

Is my strength no more?
has it been spent fully
and that in vain?

What have I
in my present distress and calling?

For I am surrounded by the enemy
in this field of promises
my beloved city

I will fly away from this adversity
and if you desire
we may stand strong
and wait
even for our love
each other
and promises
for the time of the appointed days

I already knew
just as with the little
that I already love you

You have gone behind and before me
and I will be to and fro beside you

Your faith in the little
has given you two wings
for before the hawk has it's mate
the eagle has the double portion
giving you the witness of two
to fly beyond the beasts
as they come up
until it is safe
for us to walk on our feet as hawks on the land
just as livelihood, responsibility, and mutual support,
died with Adam and Eve

And yet
now
in our resurrection
I am preparing to take the first step
to be with you
just as I also hope you will lead

You are a pillar
supporting your own temple
giving example
and I am following;
your fire as well

Yet I also
am as the firmament(s)
just as they expand
as a dome
between the waters
encompassing creation
also being as a support giving gravity

How can I say I love you?
when I haven't even kissed your neck or hand

O "God has told"
you are without comparison
without any familiar spirit
You are a prophet and apostle
a singular and plural witness
gentle and bold
if it is your delight and desire to so agree
together and distinct
we are two witnesses
of the God of eternal love
unto the whole world

You are so delicate
and energetic
beauty is yours
along with the rose's strength and splendor
the majesty of the little and so much more
with eyelashes that are so beautifully intricate
as the lily
and God has told me
you and I together have no thorns

I am as the cloud leading
follow me
and I will you every good and perfect door

If the LORD wills
we shall have His power
and so not live by our own strength-
Him to remove the blackened hour

I'm breaking out of this busted track
this skipping attack
on the implanted word I will roll
to and fro
between the altar of earth and stone
as I work
then rest
working with
then laying down my tools
as the Spirit of the Word
guides me to craft what's good
and then itself within me
without me
has self-control

At first
self-control is how the love manifests
while I keep the Sabbath
then it is what I do

It's all God for me
then me through Him
living
100 percent-

Bust like beats
brilliantly shining out of my skull
break-down like I breathe
as the bass takes hold
Funky not a junkie
as God works all things for my best
Pure like a rhythm
blazen' like sun rays out of my head
slow energy-
grab the melody
skipping now like a mountain
when down comes the rain

Thunder clapping
feelin' the move like lightnin'
there's love in euphoria
the Spirit dancing like flames of fire
set upon the flow of every finger

Never held down by darkness
as we see the light
the sun reflected at Midnight
all around
peace and patience are kind
