I
wonder about this weather of ours
as I travel throughout this day
how we’re not receiving God’s rain
in the season when appropriate
everyday
Unusual
warm days bone chilling
nights spring and winter together
it’s very cold tonight this millennial
season is something to behold
however I wish it would rain so this
earth can quench it’s thirst that it may
bloom and bud again.
Welcome
to
you collect your sin in a motel or bar.
Welcome to
Chaldean where servitude rules and
unbalance isn’t considered cruel.
Welcome
to
where unnatural affection is embraced plus
a gamut of perversions Welcome to
where Capitalism is Holy Writ the princes of
land write the statues and their subjects are forced to submit. Raise your
glass and tip your cup
you’re corrupt
Say
a prayer for
of
raiment of mirth humble yourself with sackcloth and earth
Woe
is the mighty Lion with wings for you’ve been cut down in mid flight! The rock
of ages has struck you down
you’ve been blinded by a great light.
recesses of the pit you’ve made your bed in a fiery abyss.
laughed to scorn now repentance
is too late. Judgment awaits you

About the Book
This is a collection of writings that is generally autobiographical in scope.
If it’s true to life situations that the reader is looking for, then this book will be a welcomed addition to the reader’s library. This book addresses issues that the mature audience can relate to. Whether the emotions are romantic, poetic, lamentable, spiritual, contrite, joyful, painful, anger, forgiving, passion, it’s contained in these pages. It’s not a book about clear blue skies, flowers, tranquil waters only. For that would be only surface poetry in my opinion. This contains a plethora of moods, and a gamut of emotions for all to experience. I believe the verses will allow someone to cry out in such a way they have never been able to express until they read this work. I believe the arrangement of words will minister to the reader in a way they’ve never experienced before being that it’s coming from a view they’ve never read before. For the objective mind, one will admit the wisdom contained in these pages. Allow the words to nourish your soul as it did for me when I penned them.
About the Author
Delvin began writing in high school at age
17. Always aware of his surroundings and taking mental pictures, he began to
capture his thoughts on paper so as to freeze significant moments in time
forever.
“Writing about your life experiences is the ultimate way to
cause time to stop. It allows you to recall where you were in your life at a
certain time and where you are now”. Still today writing
verses, whether poetry, parables, proverbs, psalms is the ultimate escapism for
him. He loves to read them over and over again. “When the words leave
the page and take residence in your heart that’s when you own them”. Delvin serves as a volunteer counselor on a 24 hour crisis
hotline, and operates his own website: http//:www.cutitstraight.org/
