Must Love Cats
Fur of gold to pet and rub,
Perfect cat for me to love,
Razor claws and pointed teeth,
All the better made to keep,
A quick brush along silky fur,
Rewarded with a rumbling purr,
Given a glancing nuzzled kiss,
He is mine and I am his.

The Cross (A Psalm)
O unworthy am I, of the mercy Thou givest,
O unworthy art Thou, of the cross meant for me.
O worthy am I, of Thine unending wrath,
O worthy art Thou, of mine undying love.
Thou hast given to me what I do not deserve,
Thou hast taken from me what I can not bear.
Thou hast turned Thine eyes from Thine only Son,
Thou hast turned from me the death that was mine.
What mercy You showed, when You poured out Your wrath,
What life You established, when Your Son tasted death.
What joy was restored in Your greatest sorrow,
What love in my soul for that cross so despised.
"Therefore let all the house of Israel know assure

For which or against to decide.

Piercing, slashing though my head.
Starting somewhere in heaven,
Ending somewhere in hell.
Fighting, burning, crying, crashing.
Are the armies within.
In my head they are all thrashing.
On the heaven's and hell's whim.
To be light or to be darkness.
A perpetual array.
