Culture

His chest is against my back,
a contemporary Christ.
A supernatural man laughing at dirty jokes, making old maids blush.
A king whose kingdom is in the clouds,
but also with improper thought.
A Jesus who understands culture and shock value.
He would vote for the legalization of marijuana and the illegality of abortion.
A lamb who has a slashed throat like all the crime shows.
A lion who is featured on all the National Geographic specials.
A God who wasted his religiosity and orthodoxy at our feet.
A God who took up skinny ties and skinny jeans
for another soul to be saved.

Unstable

 The clouds are unstable So too are the waves But my faith is stable, solid. Rally and debate is unstable. Fire and Water too. But, God hold us safe.

Reach

 Dear Reality, I must be honest. You’ve been hard on me. You’ve tossed me back and forth. Made me feel helpless. Everyone said I have to accept you, but you’re toxic sometimes. I know we’ve been friends for a long time. I’m willing to work with you, but you need to compromise as well. You need to stop taking up my entire day. You need to be understanding when I have to speak with Imagination and Dream. Don’t crowd around me. Don’t pull me away from them. They are my friends too. I’m sorry, Reality. I know how difficult this is for you. I know you want my attention 24/7. You just can’t have it. Your Friend, Tamara

Reach

 I both reach and retreat. I want you and want nothing to do with you. It is predictable that I both hate and love you. I want you near and must retreat. Like a civil war and trip to Disney Land. You are my contradiction Both push and pull. America, I pledge allegiance and protest you for being immoral.
