Being A Willing And Disciplined Student
He Had Started At The Beginning Of The Psalms
AND
Had Quickly Found ... Wisdom:
BLESSED Is The Man That Delights
In The Law!
Whatsoever He Doeth Shall Prosper!
Thou Art My Son!
Be Wise Now!
Salvation Belongeth Unto The Lord!
Stand In Awe And Sin Not!
Transfixed By Truth
He Said In His Heart:
He Said In His Heart:
Lead Me, Lord, In Thy Righteousness!
Have Mercy On Me For I Am Weak!
But, Then, He Considered The Statement ...
God Is Angry With The Wicked Every Day!
... And Thought It Reasonable
To Pose A Direct Question To Almighty God:
What Is Man That Thou Art Mindful Of Him?!
With His Soul Satisfied With Truth's Plain Response
He Shouted:
I Will Praise Thee, O Lord, With My Whole Heart!
When He Went To Bed That Night
The Song In His Heart Was:

Things Got Acid Real Fast

Carnal Man Roared At Him
Saying:
Things Got Acid Real Fast
AND
Carnal Man Roared At Him
Saying:
Our Lips Are Our Own!
Who Is Lord Over Us?!
After Taking A Thorough Beating At School That Day
AND
AND
Becoming Very Discouraged
He Went To Bed Praying That Night:
He Went To Bed Praying That Night:
Consider And Hear Me, O LORD My God:
Lighten Mine Eyes
Lest I Sleep The Sleep Of Death!
Before He Closed His Eyes
To Rest In Sleep
He Wrote On His Notepad:
To Rest In Sleep
He Wrote On His Notepad:
The Fool Hath Said In His Heart
There Is No God!!!!!
He Awakened The Next Morning
Totally Refreshed
AND
Wrote A Whole Chapter About
Totally Refreshed
AND
Wrote A Whole Chapter About
He Wrote For Its Conclusion:
I Will Bless The Lord
Who Hath Given Me Counsel!
Hold Up My Goings In Thy Paths
That My Footsteps Slip Not!
Hide Me Under The Shadow Of Thy Wings!
The Semester Was All Of Three Weeks
Three Days
Three Hours And Fifty-Four Minutes Old

Confident

Vividly Swore!
