God Owns Tomorrow
Miracle Man
4/18/2024
God holds the deed to my tomorrow,
and I’m a lessee once it’s today.
Each day, this time, He lets me borrow,
but once its past its gone to stay.
You're bound, there isn't argument, says the landlord,
Who bound me? Why? Entwined with what logistic cord?
Your father borrowed; you must pay; this is the law,
Does law say, for father's debt, his son to whipsaw?
Thus went the argument; both did not relent; fought,
Each over the other, by tricks learned, wounds brought;
Though both died, explicitly, for mundane mammon,
Haven't both got, in them, common cause conception?
Who's got more reason? Who's less? You and me must say,
Giving and taking are parts of life; none can nay;
Ethics, in existence-jungles, has lost its way,
Humans need to decide with wisdom, that's on sway...

As the drop of saline slowly rolls
The ragged_ irregular exposed
As the mighty river flows from holes
My heart_ spring flood; since of me disposed
A flood so strong that the levee is broken
A bridge is carried away rushing to the sea
Left dry bed of pebbles_ token
Heart given with love not lessee
Lacrimal gland overworked dear
Red swollen eyes_no great surprise
Constantly shedding a warm pointed tear
Now my heart totally revise
The tear in my heart slowly heals
No more will I deal with such a heel
On that broken levee are seals
New love happens to be real deal
