Man who does not live in godliness 
is far away from God's blessings. 
If one renews not his life, 
it won't be good for him. 
He who stays away 
from wicked deed 
has steadfast 
and strong 
faith....

Hands are tools for sin
I navigate the lands of your skin
I peer in your heavenly eyes
And find godliness deep within
Life is meaningless if I can't
Breathe you in like oxygen......

Revelation shows the
Return of righteousness,
Resurrecting hope and
Restoring godliness;
Recovery from sin
Reunites humans who
Receive God's perfect peace.

integrated justice. Kinetic lovers misconstrue navigating oedipal pleasures,

eXtracting your zen....

Who said cleanliness is 
Next to godliness?

Who said were there's 
Muck there's brass?

Who said hard work
Never killed anyone?

I work in muck,

I've Got no brass,

I work hard, and it's killing me.

Better keep myself clean, 
for my sake....

Treachery ~ that mind-set's gift
is doing nothing, through the rift,
my grace be courage e'er be swift
to ford the clamor, not adrift!

In science wonder or faith's calm
surreal assunder, naught of psalm
though seeing rightly, not alarmed
and Godliness, through prayer, curbs harm!...

my first words inspired to be. . . . 
that Jesus loves me

her best-loved motto -
what’s next to godliness. . . .

feasting on Scriptures
strong in mind, body and soul. . . . 
Mom might outlive us

The uniformity of death

Blue and White

Fattened out with pin stripes

Until they did not resemble 

A single shred of humanity

A ghost in all but name

Shamed and maimed

Dead behind the eye's and soul

Destined for the showers

Where cleanliness,
Is next to godliness

Meant exactly that...

joyous, peaceful

sharing, giving, loving

gratefulness, humility; arrogance, bitterness

complaining, grumbling, hating

miserable, anxious

Dissatisfaction

*1Timothy 6:6 …Godliness with contentment is great gain.
