A young lady went to the bishop of her church for spiritual counseling and guidance, she got counceled alright. The 62 year old bishop sexually assaulted her and forced her to perform a perverted act. This was just in the news, they locked the holy man up.
The devil is on everyones trail
eventually many will fail
moreso than excel
No one is really exempt
from a failing attempt
Not even the holy priest
the ones we expect the least
Eventually some will try to feast
Some type of good or evil
chases us all
Question is when will it
come to call
We resist the evil and try
to improve the good part
and can only make it with
prayer and a strong heart
Success or failure is programed
right from the start
The devil plays a game too smart
Some of us lose and some
of us win
blame the losing on being
born into sin
First man fail big time in the garden
On a losing note I guess we'll
have to beg God's pardon
or simply take the fall and
try to do better the next time
if one does sublime
and there's not too much of
a crime

It seems we suffer one calamity after another all over the world. Just think of all the fish, wildlife, and the people affected by oil in the ocean.
Intuitively, I know I've lived many lifetimes, and none more interesting than the one I'm living now. However, being born an old soul somehow did not excuse me from the same job I share with you and that is learning to craft a positive attitude about
Poetry. Various urgent, lively, and sometimes haunting poems appear here alongside stark black and white photos of Jones' homeless subjects. Jones takes on the plight of the homeless in different voices, echoing the thoughts of people on the streets,
