Opposites ... a frame of heart

1 Thessalonians 5:23 

23 Now may the God of peace himself make you completely holy and may your spirit and soul and body be kept entirely blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Opposites … a frame of heart

 

Some mornings beauty appears ... and some only in satire

What happens during the night to give me this frame of heart?

Where does this substance originate that’s flowing through the door

in words on a legal pad ... that records the inner-part?

 

Diversity of subject ... bundled by design

It feels like specific compartments are released from the soul

All I do is observe ... accumulation of past thoughts

that did not go anywhere ... as it designs its own role

 

Today it is the negative ... tomorrow love of life

Yes now it is offensive ... in days ahead it flies serene.

A mixture of substance ... like the meager and obese

War and peace and opposites ... contradiction in my spleen

 

Getting in a hurry ... to get nothing done

Hand to the plow ... by a field ready for harvest

Beating the mules ... who take time for eating

of all that is in front of them ... they must be the smarter
