Party pooper
There goes humanity yet again,
Flaunting their existential stupidity,
Celebrating another crossover into imaginary happiness.
They think themselves mighty little gods.
as they stretch their mortality to eternity.
This is that proverbial bliss of idiots, on a global scale.
Thoughtless libations to a new set of 12 months.
Who amongst us, stops to think : where is it all leading to?
An annual commotion arriving, eventually, at a gravestone.
I was told to shut up,
And empty the head of all such thought,
And it’s true, I yearn to flee that book of Ecclesiastes!
I wish for sweet wine , delicious eats & perhaps even a little romance
But He assaults my sleep,
mangles my head to pieces with his celestial insights, again & again
Find rest my little neurons
sit in the joy of this silly moment,
...Cheers to you ...
Indulge a bit little one.
but I am prey,
target for his inconvenient wisdom
I wish for a little lull
I wish for a little merriness, a little imaginary peace Jehovah.
...oh Yahweh! have mercy on my busy heart?
*Let me return to God...
*and sit there with my unrequited supplications.
* not my will but yours...yours my king
Happy new year
Hosea 6
“Come, let us return to the Lord.
He has torn us to pieces
but he will heal us;
he has injured us
but he will bind up our wounds.
2 After two days he will revive us;
on the third day he will restore us,
that we may live in his presence.
3 Let us acknowledge the Lord;
let us press on to acknowledge him.
As surely as the sun rises,
he will appear;
he will come to us like the winter rains,
like the spring rains that water the earth.

Thoughts on Christmas
Christians celebrate the birth of a man who was spat on by church leaders and random idiots in the streets. A defenseless man who rode a donkey into Jerusalem to carry out a “revolution” nobody seems to understand. Contrary to secular Christmas, his story is not a “glamorous” red & white fairytale (at least for now).
His advent involves a i). stable, ii). a dirty manger iii). 3 wisemen (by today’s standards, perhaps the most ridiculous intellectuals in history) iv). a pregnant virgin, v). poor parents etc...each one of these (along with his hypothetical miracles , if you can call them that) is a ripe ingredient for the mockery he has been subjected to over the years, generation after generation, e.g. one can easily say “Jesus Christ” thoughtlessly without consequence. He seems like a lunatic or a disrespected outcast claiming to be a king and continues to brainwash humanity since 2000 years ago. He deserves the spiteful wrath of intellectuals & self-sufficient saints who can see through the propaganda.
His gospel has been degenerated to be a message of moral compliance/superiority/sufficiency. However at the center of this religion is an underwhelming “super hero” who befriended corrupt tax collectors, harlots, drunkards & other weirdos. Rarely do you hear that Jesus came to save hypocrites & the immoral, and yet those are the very people he came to earth for.
The fact that Christmas is a big holiday season across the world, makes Jesus Christ perhaps the most successful legend/ lunatic or outcast to ever “live”. His story deserves careful & critical thought by everyone & anyone. We must ask ourselves how a lunatic/legend with such poor credentials can be this successful? Not even impressive legends of Batman, super man , Hercules or the black panther have amassed as much attention, popularity & dominance like Jesus . Debates between believers & atheists alike can genuinely help, because this is not the kind of story that one can simply be indifferent to. On the one hand it seems like an inconvenient legend insulting our lack of moral strength, however if at all true, there are eternal consequences that one needs to reckon with.
Merry Christmas xo

Unamazing Grace?
The Bible
saturates the head with serious insights
Previously,
the lonely doubter was an idle spectator of her own faith,
Where,
much of God was understood as dull
God yanks her from delusions of moral compliance
Pushing her
to feel that helplessness common to man
Stop preaching
morals to a tired & trying heart…
Spiteful gossips
and their manic grins
Bothering the sinner with their rat-like (toxic) curiosity
As qualified moralists, devouring the poor child
Convicting
the heart,
breaking the
heart…
Entire spirit
in quiet chaos.
The sinner is Guilty but acquitted
Stained but flawless
Evil but good
These are boring contradictions beyond her understanding
Her lack & disinterest!
Oh God, Feed her empty head!
God will give wisdom to a starving mind.
Grace will land tenderly on a taut head,
God will unzip a new mindset
Hang on, joy is coming
The heart will giggle again
It will be Amazing! Amazing Grace.

Stop preaching moral compliance without preaching helplessness/weakness at the Throne of Christ
