a little imagination goes a long way

imagination
a dangerous tool
very easy to become captured time
in your mind
spent on some form of self-admiration
or assisting in weaving 
things experienced with the senses into a false reality
that world within worlds
a fantasy.

the rabbit trail

before it started
there was a trigger
i cannot remember
though the thought after i can
"media creates language"

a curiosity about the word media
eclipsed by an obsession
for the phrase come to mind
that sparked the whole thing off
it was some metaphor, idiom or cliche
that i realized started with someone
that i found fit in with media being plural for medium
o the parallels, and crossing synchronicity
prepackaged phrases that come at ease
having deeper meaning
because they express something we can relate to

and then there it was
a rabbit trail
come full circle

prayer (shalom AbbaYah)

AbbaYah
see right now
i'm not sure
if it's safe in my head
You say be still
when the chaos is overwhelming
instead
yet here You are
my Peace, shalom AbbaYah
Yah help me
show people how much i love them.
if You answer this prayer
by default i'll see
how much i love myself.
shut down the chatter of the mind
help me zero in
on the Love, the Light, the Truth
Shalom AbbaYah, Love Endless.
everlasting praise
for every minute

gray areas

nothing is totally black and white
look closer at zebra
she'll sing the same song
in the color of her
you'll be seeing

things, people, reality
all are complex
breathing spirit
morphing at will

unaware so often
of their freedom
their Gift
the ultimate offering from
A LORD unto a lamb.

this thing is living
LIFE
it's a ride and we're on it
with way more control than
they'd like us to know

we can change the channel
we can change the world
we don't have to buy their bullshit
anymore

don't and do's

dizzy only seems today

like shes lost her dollar at the dollar store

because she exists in another place

in a different Way

this physical existence

originally designed for pleasure

before corruption entered in

with an adversary, a serpent and sin

satan’s leading of the veering began

confusion, babylon

we’re here now

but the carnal plane is decaying rapidly

as we die we go forward

where we can’t see

some hanging on to hopelessness, arrogance, or worse;

but some go forth on promises,

an urgency

that just makes sense

what are we doing with our time

are we wasting it on the flesh?

carnal, cancers, winter is coming

and fear’s constant plea

please Yah help us do this right

help us unite

head, body, limb, hand

before we’re out of time

You’re plan

it is done

Halleluyah!

You give us peace

in the midst of even this

shalom.

even if it hurts shine the Light

It's me
who so often hinders
the flow of relationships in my life.
I know this.
I want to change this.
I usually feel helpless.
But I'm not.
Helpless ever.
I choose this.
Whatever it is
How I see it
Creates the perception
How I see it
And without wisdom,
Only darkness.
When I cannot
I bid you shine the Light.

climb out

like the chosen ones
born into exile
drinking this bottle of water i bought
because i can't draw my own
i haven't got a well,
or a stream, or a white picket fence

but i started at what i thought
was the bottom

until i learned the hard way
that there's a button there
and if you push it
the bottom always drops down
always it goes deeper still
no rocks to land on
just a gaping black hole

i stood
looking up from the depths
of a wayward descending spiral
reflecting on all the buttons i pushed
in awe to discover
next to each and every one
was a ladder i missed

and from every rung
just over my head
was a Hand reaching down
trying to help me climb out

in place of the madness

i looked into the soul of a most despicable king
he was a horror
i could find not one single redeeming quality
and for a moment
i wanted him dead
but death is not something to be wished for
in time death comes inevitably
the righteous prayer would be for life
to yearn for his redemption
that beautiful innocence
would be
in place of the madness

miss understanding

there is such an intense desire to be understood
for someone to get me.
for forever it seems i've sought relief
from a near constant sense of misunderstanding
or worse, rejection
the spirit of rejection, the thorn in my side
my relatively victorious enemy
then it hits me
Yah gets me.
He understands me clearly
and this reality is comforting
its knowledge helps many
a lonely moment pass
again
but still the desire lingers
to be understood by other people
or even just one
completely

serenity

credit: anaRasha

love asked one night
what do you want
i didn't need to think about it
"serenity"
the word just formed and came out
and instantly always was the truth
something hit its target
the moment froze there in silence
serenity
the opposite of everything i was
haunted, filled with angst
insecurities like spider's legs
countless hands
that reached around breaking everything
but even then i glimpsed the peace
i didn't know
but knew
was possible

hard words, life, death, birthdays and blessings

in the flesh
i am one year older
and yet unconvinced i should be here at all.
i am not suicidal, that isn't even the point.
i will never kill myself. 
i don't want to die in that sense,
despite wondering occasionally how it might be nice to.
we all are given a chance to fulfill a purpose
and maybe we do so anyway
unintentionally,
in even the ugliest pathetic kinds of ways,
like a dud firework first lit for it's potential.

then discarded.
somehow more than nothing we may wonder.
but i think about what solomon said
about the unborn
and how they might be the most blessed,
blessed more than the existing souls,
blessed more than the dead.
but people twist words,
and i may be twisting his.
through misunderstanding limited by language,
translations, wrong interpretations.
hard words.

#dontbeoffended

zion arise

watchman look out
soon the King will come
Yahushua King of Zion
israel (here we are)
brothers sisters
we are almost home
come praise the Father
call out Thy Kingdom come
on earth as it is in Zion
Zion the Kingdom of YaHUaH
zion the body of the Messiah
zion we are the bride of Yahushua
we're in Him
in Yahushua the Messiah
He married us
we are zion
in love

freewill and the return to innocence

freewill, to use or abuse
everyone has freewill to do whatever
this is the truth
you could call this "will"  LIFE
life is a gift, you got it for free
you cannot deny you have it, reasonably
you may choose to use your freewill to do good
YaHUaH will allow those that do to keep doing so
He will allow (He lives with)
they that will act in love to ALL others
they are those who will live

its ok to question authority
those willing to receive the Truth will be happy with freewill

freewill can do anything it chooses
to be aware of the consequences is healthy..
when you've seen the worst freewill can do
just look around.. see the trash, perversion and violence?
all are the result of freewill

why we need YAH to guide us, is obvious now
YAH can do anything, but He only does what is GOOD for everyone
HALLELUYAH!!
be like Him and live

Yahushua the Messiah returns soon
peace and love in His service
please come with us
we are zion

good times, bad times, YAH is always there

zion our 2ndday BR #3/3  (babylon-saturnday-4-june-2011)

tonight we are inside
but usually we are sleeping under a large tree
with branches like arms that reach almost to the ground
its beautiful most nights
the cars drive by
leaves rustle with critters
the other night a coyote happened by too
but it still feels lonely even with others sometimes
the best part is YahYah is always there
HE is faithful though when i'm not
PRAISE YAH!
HALLELULYAH!

zion our newmoon-day ARw #1/3   (babylon-friday-3-june-2011)

a walk in the park
a rabbit
a snake escaping its hole
three ravens dancing in the wind
enjoying some shade at the base of a tree
we happened upon a year long treasure hunt
feeling blessed to be a part of it
if only for a minute
later while wondering on the birds happy chattering
YahYah impressed me with the thought of
how HE loves the sound of the voice of HIS children
and i was reminded to pay attention to my own voice
to speak in a tone of my own choosing

*        *          *       *         *         **


zion our 7thday ARw #29/2  (babylon-thursday-2-june-2011)

we are sitting in front of one
but we are not empty buildings
just a few yards away
on the same grass as we're sitting
munching her fill, a small size bunny
she in a shadow while we're in the sunshine
a sign says pico canyon road not too far in the distance
and as people drive by they don't see what i'm witnessing


after thought: don't be empty buildings.. let your FATHER YAH in!

zion our 4thday AR #26/2   (babylon-thursday-2-june-2011)

church at mcdonalds
parking lot on the old road
after sunrise in the morning
its been nearly everyday
you see they have a bathroom
and man do you need one
when your camping in the city

*       *       *        *         *       *


zion our 7thday AR #22/2  (babylon-thorsday-26-may-2011)

something is blooming on the hillside along i5
some sort of desert flower out of a spiny bush
it rained here sorta late in the year
its pretty
one massive stalk
at the top many gorgeous white heads
some in full bloom
some soon will be
you'd need an axe to pick this flower!
:)

zion our 4thday AR #19/2   (babylon-monday-23-may-2011)

before many days near
stevenson ranch
we all were about to take the mark before we were woken up
a red dragon fly came by for a visit on a nearby bush
across the street some men are up to something

*      *       *     *         *         *      *


zion our 2ndday AR #17/2   (babylon-saturnday-21-may-2011)

a lady at mcdonalds we've been at almost daily
asked today why we are still here
i told her my boss hadn't told me to go yet
now outside we're thinking about signals from YAH
and how we don't know what we're looking for
but we do know when we get it

later a bus backed into the parking spot near us
the side said new hope
one beautiful servant of YahYah prays with us
out of more than a dozen that got off the bus
we sat just a few yards from them
reading the Word

everyday a blank page

HALLELUYAH
we are going home


peace and love in HIS service
