Noises, Disembodied Voices

It’s been over a year Since they Began berating me, Unending, merciless And hateful. They tear at me daily, Flaunting, coarse and crass. They make threats Upon which they sometimes Follow through, Fostering fear From nowhere, Instilling panic for No reason at all. But who they are Is still an exercise In the unknown, Formidable futility. Quit the drugs! They scream, Hellacious, Hollering against heartfelt Hope, they preach fear And hatred anonymous.

Save it for the Judge, They say. But if they mean God, Why should I save it for Him, who is everything, Everywhere, every time, Omnipresent, omniscient, All-loving, all-powerful, The embodiment of Love and mercy? God knows I strive To live with love In abundance, To share that love With everyone I meet.

We were created for a Positive purpose, In God’s image. Perhaps we would be Damned to live otherwise, For life is so fleeting. A human life is The equivalent of An orbital Earthen Day, Of which I have lived So many. Fulfillment is best spent Away from floundering Confusion. Giving is to living As loving is to knowing — And I try my best To love as I live.

There’s not a human Alive on Earth today Whose nature makes Them irredeemable Or perfect. We are creatures Living on a sphere where Fear is learned, and Love is instinctual. Let us live with love When push comes to shove, Abandoning all that makes Us feel afraid. We are eternal souls In temporary vessels, Here to learn we hold Infinity in our finite little Three-dimensional hands. We are the shifting sands, Making molehills out of Mountainous lands.

Would Gabriel deign To speak through me? If so, I know not why, But I am told I am Protected from on high. I find it harder everyday To speak words Tantamount to lies, And though I try To love and live I’m not supposed to scry.
