PAST WORDS………………SOMETIME AGO….
EIGHTEEN WHEELER PASSING THROUGH WASHINGTON DC.
Over and over
Di wheels Dey turnin’
Over and over
Mile afta mile
De same sound just
Going on and on
Over and over again
Is di same way mi mind jus’ going
On and on
Over and over
Pondering di same ting
When you gwine notice me again God?

LAMENTATIONS
God,
God of heaven
Listen to me yuh hear, are you deaf to me?
Blind to my tears?
I am the loud and miserable one!
Oh my God! – must I be Jewish for you to take time out from creation?
I lament day and night
Weeks and months, why don’t you answer?
Please God hear me my bones are stiff from bending
My spirit wracked with fears and loneliness.
Are you out of manna?
You can’t be- you are God
I am bleached now God
Deliver me.
