Despised
despised because of
Your Name
am i?
i prefer Your Sky
to them,
he or her,
remove the burr,
let me purr,
Master Lion, Sir

by some human eyes

Determined Father God
'i'm more determined than my son'
God told me recently
determined to help people
i understood him to be
they work together
to do good
rescue and save
and satisfy godly desire
we crave
our father is a relaxed sort
and pretty funny
amused by me
and my odd way
i think he'd like me
less serious
more play
lighten up
i heard from heaven
one say
his determination in us
and love from his son
more fun!

Dirtliness
cleanliness comes after dirtiness
but dirty hands get the work done
sometimes difficult, sometimes fun
godliness sound a bit too holy
and cleanliness just too - cleanly
i think i'll be down to earth - imperfect, dirtly
