A melody not recognized ...


1 Corinthians 1:20 

20 Where is the wise man? Where is the expert in the Mosaic Law?

Where is the debater of this age? Has God not made the wisdom of the world foolish?

 

Debatable

 

Directed from afar ... monotonous the tone

Melody not recognized ... just sounds of the drum

Constantly now march ... as in a lost syndrome

We all move on in spite ... we’re all being numbed

 

Breath a fragrance of purpose ... heaving of the chest a sign

Hope is still available ... for the dreamers and faith

Lovely smiles will nurture ... for all turns out fine

Although debatable ... for the faceless every day
