Poem: Between Two Thieves

Under the duress of the sacrificial Cross

and positioned between two thieves,

the culmination of grace for the World

was granted - via Jehovah’s heavenly reprieve.



Surrounded by the stench of death,

Christ uttered famous words of forgiveness;

enduring human suffocation with each dying breath,

His Light steadfastly opposed foreboding darkness.



His heart was forcefully punctured,

by a soldier’s upward, piercing blow.

Ripping the spear from the…

Poem: Walls Tumbled Down

Man-made structures can’t last

against the blows of a spiritual blast.

As demonstrated at Jericho, walls tumbled down;

its destruction was truly inevitable!

For it was illegally stationed on holy ground.



Inside out, God moves on our heart from within;

subtly He motivates us to have Him purge our sin.

Against the barriers of our personal defense,

His Holy Spirit continually and lovingly flows,

easily overtaking our five,…

Poem: A Psalm for the Prisoner

O Lord, hear my simple cry;

set this weary captive free!

For I’m condemned by my past,

imprisoned by the dungeon of me.



Break the restraints of attachment

that are distressing my soul -

Destroy the chains of my ignorance,

which continue to undermine Your control.



Forcefully storm the stony gates

that shelter the stronghold of my heart.

Let the destructive plague be swept away!

I thirst for Your Presence, as the woodland…

Poem: Beware the Antichrist

Heed this warning: Beware the Antichrist!

We know from Christ’s revelation to Man,

that the ‘End Times’ officially began in 1948

with Israel reclaiming their ancestral land.



Be aware and be not deceived.

For this evil soul shall rise up - from obscurity.

Out from the descendants of Dan

the World will take notice of Satan’s emissary.



Although the Antichrist should be easy to spot,

this individual will be viewed as ‘Heaven sent’;

for his…

Poem: Remembering Pentecost

On that fateful day of Pentecost,

power came down from on high.

For it originated with God’s presence

and His Kingdom, that’s far beyond our sky.



The ascension of Christ had been witnessed,

with Him clearly rising above the clouds;

He was no longer bound by planetary constraint

and the opinionated amazement of the crowd.



Upon the Earth, a violent breeze blew;

it brought forth…

Hi Joseph,

 

I really liked your poem ''Comes the rain''. It displays a profound sensitivity and intensity, which is what i mainly expect to receive when reading a poem.

As for the rest of your poems, there were two things that bothered me. One, that your message is too clear. When reading a poem, i like to be challenged. I don't want things to be too simple for me.

Second, whether it happens on a concious or a subconcious level, i get the impression that you insist a little too much on your opinions about religion. As a result, i feel more like i am reading a lecture than a poem.

 

I hope i did not offend you. You asked for feedback, and i tried to be as honest as possible.
