Pivotal

it's all been leading up to this
turning point
not just one
but one of many
in a path of indecision
leading up to this
rigid passive precipitous

Second

for some the pieces next
or get too hard
might go too far;
so plainly I present,
too clear,
a subtext marker:
the fear
is that my fall will be too hard
the thread below is wicked strong
but, visible at times,
can have a place in honest words
sometimes angry sometimes mad
the craze will fit right in
the driving force
calls into question
my status quo again
and again
discover layers
as they peel back
my pain a good thing
horrified but glad to see the work in progress
I hope
I trust
I do believe
that so far every step is buoyed by grace
the face of Christ still smiles
although the clouds lay thick
one piece a warning,
a finger pointing,
one a story,
a hymn, a song,
more that fit in other ways
all of them right from here
so listen to the whine
each time the struggle is for real
it's just what I would say
if I could talk to you for
just
one

Pariah

it seems to me the gossip is the root
words of wisdom have so much to say
incriminating every one of us
by our words we'll be condemned
careless words
provide
division
we are always on display
modeling character
both good and bad
heart's overflow reflected in the next generation
beyond outrage
i find the truth is sliding by you over and around to turn and wander back to me
wounding words emitted sweetly
who is really in control
i need words
self-examination now
if i cannot accept the picture that the problem lies with me then bitterness might be the only cup
two deadly cups of might-be bitterness
one for you and one for me
put it down
oh i'm broken
recast me
we are always on display

Wheel [SUV]

wheel
wheel feel
wheel deal
clutching me into the great machine
sucking me into the great machine
it will take me up
i will give my strength
it will use me up
i will have none left
crushing me into the great machine
steal
kneel
it will eat it up
i will give my choice
it will use it up
there will be none left
using me great machine
wheel
wheel peel
it will take me up
i will give my strength
it will use me up
i will get none back
i am revolving in the cultural revolution
i have resigned to decline
advertised to prostitution
free market line to my spine
giving in to the fusion
of my conscience with the television
take me
as a good citizen you must purchase everything
that we have prescribed with our economic plan this week
sit right here imagine all this could be yours right now
and you will be ours
put it out
it will use it up
i will
peel

Refractory
04:22
|

Yet again the "this is life," the ice
The house company man calling
Singing the song of rebuild in and out
The life wanted to be left behind
Rehash not in bash
Just the pain that wells
The memory of clenched and broken fist
Insults screamed and pushed across
A selfish bent
A flooded eye fixed on feelings piled high
No words at all without some help
Fearing of it really is the end this time
The jumping feeling
The healing cost may always ache
Sore reminders of the day
Fixed in mind — fixed — not forgotten
Such lives so cracked so long for hope
Is there
A newer shelter bears a refuge for the wounded heart
I can believe and hear
The house company man calling

Always fighting this voice that keeps playing in the back of my mind
Always I find want to suppress but I can not
Makes me afraid of a fundamental problem with me
Accused misdirected pride fall
What can I do with the feelings screaming to get out of me
Help me open up help me give it up
I think I can
Sufficiency of self is my front
But I know I am looking for a true deliverer
Scrape away the sin let it go release
Try to hear the tiny screaming righteous voice above my own plea for mercy
Always fighting

Keep Silence
05:46
|
|||
Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
And with fear and trembling stand;
Ponder nothing earthly minded,
For with blessing in His hand,
Christ our God to earth descendeth,
Our full homage to demand.
King of kings, yet born of Mary,
As of old on earth He stood,
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
In the body and the blood;
He will give to all the faithful
His own self for heavenly food.
Rank on rank the host of heaven
Spreads its vanguard on the way,
As the Light of light descendeth
From the realms of endless day,
That the powers of hell may vanish
As the darkness clears away.
At His feet the six wing'd seraph,
Cherubim with sleepless eye,
Veil their faces to the presence,
As with ceaseless voice they cry:
Alleluia, Alleluia
Alleluia, Lord Most High!
