Energy Exposure
If we follow some of our base instincts
We may also be opening the door to
a whole realm of unwelcome spirits
And to energies we are unprepared to
deal with in our lives.
To pursue life
without his blessing it
Is folly and dangerous
It is going towards an energy field
of spiritual forces that are larger
than any of us could imagine.
Who can reason better with us
than we can reason with ourselves.
In a verse last night it read
Those who exalteth themselves shall
be abased, those who humbleth
themselves shall be exalted.
But what a contrary world we
live in Jesus.
A world that cannot help being swept
into the convulsing body politic

Poetry is important to my life because it gives me a way of saying things I never imagined were in me. My poems deal with all kinds of subjects, my attitude on today's culture, art, corporations, nature, etc. But these aren't the only things that I write about in my poetry. I don't have a favorite poet, but probably Michael McClure is the poet I have learned the most from, from his readings on YouTube.
