another day another dollar

isnt that what the world wants us to think

and isnt that what we do most of the time...

...sigh... indeed i have fallen, deep into that trap...
another day another dollar
yet still one day closer to death
and what have i accomplished today? sure maybe a web page or two...
...but that is not what i asked, and you know it all too well.

who have i loved today?
did i love my god today?
or did i love myself?
or did i love a boy?
or did i love the serpent when i pretended to love a boy
but really was not loving any of the above?

too often i stumble and fall into the deceit of every-day-ness, of the drudgery of paying my bills and doing my work,

too often do i step headlong into the pit of useless debate and semantic argumentation, when all i should do is praise god

i wish i were a seraphim, and my life consisted merely of standing in His Glory and worshipping His Face...

oh to be in Heaven today
today
today
and today
and to wait not a moment longer to bask in His glow
but merely to BE in His presence
simply to rest in His love
only to lie in His arms

yet cold earth surrounds me distracts me confounds me
no, still i lie to myself
none of that matters, none of this world truly misleads me,
no not even the devil himself misleads me
only do i mislead myself
only do i fail myself
only do i lower myself down

i love My God
and He loves me
yet now i am making Him cry
I am sure
I wish it were not so
and i know what it is i have to do
i know how must i change my life
yet i do not
*sigh*
another day another dollar
when can i escape this trap
that i have created, baited and stepped myself into
and suddenly i close the jaws upon my own leg
and cry to myself pitiful

yet still His love embraces me
when i choose to feel touch surround BE inside it
if only i could choose that more often
