~ Beloved Woman of God I am your journalist Scribe;
A professional copyist I shall;
My duties theologian, a jurist,
May I verse hardcopy speaks life?
What you say, you speak life too;
A scribe in term, inspired words;
Gleaning those of Father’s lessons;
You have learned, inspirational;
I be your journalist scribe transpose record ;
That of what’s in the inside out;
~ In the name of Jesus Christ;
Be your personal, clerk, transcriber;
Your amanuensis, recorder;
You’re in season record-keeper;
May I be your personal professional theologian?
Penman jurist documenting mallam, Hallelujah and Amen!
Scribe recording dictated you and Our Father’s verse;
History present tense impressions, for now and always;
I am your journalist Scribe;
-------I shall be your Scribe;

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2023©
I set out lookin' fer some way to scribe,
that wer' a different, en catch yarn ear
Well first I'd try, 'ee hollerin' a rhyme,
with all CAPS, this only brought er tear,
This started me a thinkin' too look
elce-where, excep', per'aps this prose
isn't fer me, many have written 'ay book'
I'll need my style, somethin' too share
Sure fer this, they will laugh till they pee,
wouldn't it be a blessin', in this puddle
of tryin', findin' a style suited, right fer me
per'aps I'll be better off, an only doodle
keepin' this in mind, I started, I writ'
writ', en rewrit', like ne're before,
poundin' on my KeyPad, till all fingers,
akein' back, big butt twer'z bone sore,
So, If only I could catch er great line
if it wer' different, silly, too catch one's eye
I'd show 'em, too smile, durin' my life time
attain fame, per'aps, er piece of 'ee pie
Just a scribe for the voices in my head
Writing down the words I have been fed
Everything I see
In this land of the free
Rolling and tumbling till I can't think
Brings me to the brink
Sorting them out
Trying not to shout
I feel like my head is about to explode
Must lighten this load
Words bring me down
In them I drown
Must be my madness
Brings me sadness
I cannot give in
It is how it's always been
No pill for what ails me
None that I see
So I'm just a scribe for the madness in my head
Be this way till I'm dead
Never to be free
That's how it be
The loud threats on the doors inscribed
Were from a Union just proscribed
For struggles it bloodshed prescribed,
And for them four Networks subscribed.
A group the men on top proscribed
But still with men she neatly bribed
And to them The Cheating described...
A clique the falsest strength ascribed,
Though parading some fierce scribes,
A lot profiting from mere vibes...
Her threats on doors in each walking street
Merely breathing the Vainly Sweet
A smelling tribe
With a Culture of Bribe,
For Bribe is often A Lever:
The Answer to A Short Fever,
Doctors to face “The Other Fever!”
To Bribe she never says “Never”,
Its purported sweetness “Forever” …
A Blind-to-Truth Tribe
You daren’t describe
Her passion for Bribe;
With the foulest fancy for it,
Often bringing it about with wit;
Where spared enough time to Bribe
Is her Most Erudite Scribe!
Tricksters-for-life’s Tribe,
Always for the All-Time vibe,
Where suffers not a jibe
The Damned Crooked Giver
Nor his Brother Stylish Receiver.
