i am God's poet

 
i am God's poet
it is time to be heard
among the many voices
that cry
for your immediate attention

i am God's poet
sparks fly as i speak
creative energies flow to you
to heal
to save, to cleanse

i am God's poet
and will not harm you
though the salt of my words
stings sharply
in the bloody sores of humanity's isms

i am God's poet
when i shout JESUS!
you can taste him
be filled
be satisfied you that hunger

i am God's poet
and do not fear what you can do to me
for i have many helpers
mostly unseen
yet very much noticed

i am God's poet
and all too much human
as were david, samson and noah
like jericho
my walls crumble when circumferenced 
    by His love cries

i am God's poet
breathe in his love
love that never falters
nor flatters
remaining steady whole and sure
