The World Spits Bile

The World Spits Bile

 

The world spits bile, breathes fear and doubt

While demons run amok

Countless suffer famine and drought

But who will seek The Rock?

 

The Rock so many will fall by

That rescues those who fail

That raises who to self will die

And saves from Satan’s jail

 

But few seek God while death draws near

Few know; nor fear His might

Only a few have ears to hear

Have eyes to see The Light

 

While Satan’s sons and his daughters

Have countless deeds to hide

Grace calls to drink living waters

And be Salvation’s bride

 

To take the hand and walk with Christ

To live regardless loss

Reveal why He was sacrificed

As a lamb on Calvary’s cross

 

Who will The Truth of God receive?

Accept God’s hand of love

Through faith, trust, Jesus and believe

Heaven beckons above

 

The earth’s corrupt and evil rules                 

Her bowels are in decay

Her brood’s most led by blind lost fools

Must face The Judgement Day

 

When God The Father, judges lives

Where sinners take the stand

Where saints rejoice like virgin wives

And dwell The Promised Land.....

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
