Praise God For Giving Me Hands (Bussokusekika)



Praise God For Giving Me Hands   (Bussokusekika)

For what it is worth
I made three peace offerings
While watching TV
Who knows what may come of them
You have your plastic Jesus
Praise God for giving me hands

About this poem

I won’t get into the religious ramifications of certain teachings from whom I claim to be the false prophet who claimed to be me and his teachings of that which I call my peace offerings…Who knows what fruits may be brought forth from said offerings…My stepson aka the possible sacrificial lamb by all accounts should be considered brain dead and should have no chance of a normal life even IF he were to survive his current ordeal…Who knows what My Father’s plans are for him and Jezebel…IF he pulls through she will probably want to give credit to her faith and those whom she calls her family’s prayers to their Jehovah…Thus is life…I believe that IF you and I would have tried to get together in the past before we had/have learned the lessons he had wanted us to learn…We probably would have destroyed one another and I feel as IF that would have been a very bad thing for the both of us…I have learned quite a bit from narci…IF it were not for her being part of my life…That which I call my signet seal never would have been placed on my path to be discovered…I have read that Solomon had achieved 3 of the 7 eyes and he was believed to be a very wise king…Well I believe I have mentioned my journey began at the age of 16…And I don’t recall exactly when My Father promoted me after he felt or believed that I had actually learned and earned all of the 7 mentioned…Maybe I am tooting my own horn…But I told my therapist of some things I consider that mankind may attribute to their secret IQ test that they gave me at one time…I believe that I had scored a 160 on that test…I personally believe I have learned so much since then…But I could really care less…I don’t read much poetry from other poets anymore…I still think that the one about a certain cowboy and a dancehall girl was pretty darned hot…But I don’t feel that I would ever permit any woman to try to peg me…But that is just me…lol…Well…Maybe the time is still not right for us…How long has it been???27 years give or take???We’ve been through y2k…The 2 trains on one track solution to the missile defense going from 40 % ish effectiveness to over 90% effectiveness give or take…And then there is the green witch thingy with the Star Wars laser Earth curvature one…I wonder how the salad one is going???It was fun riding my bicycle around trying come up with simple solutions to complex problems…I could go on and on…But I won’t…As IF I solved the cloud problem for Bill Gates…lol…Who knows what little bumps one may encounter in our journey through life???Well…Juel…I kind a like it here in this metal box…Or in this office building tall…As long as you’re around…I don’t know IF/When I will be going to do some camping on my off grid property…IF you are not comfortable with mingle…We’ll…We could always talk about it…We could possibly come to a mutual agrrement…We must continue to do that which we feel and believe makes us happy…I’m tired of being miserable…I am even growing weary of writing poetry…As IF I was offered a million dollars to commit to a publisher…Then again it could be my overactive imagination grasping for straws…Well…It’s getting late…Sweet dreams woman…JK…Maybe one day the stars will align for us…Do you remember the one about…I live my life…lost at sea…A drift in its waters…I float endlessly…Do you remember the rest???So much for meat hooks…Good night my love…
