Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm young, cut, shattered, and reconstructed
Blood of the world flows at my fingertips
Nothing and all exist in perfection

Late night downtown provides
My heart and eyes with diversity
My guitar is not afraid of anything
Bold enough to embrace a woman in security

On the everlasting search for Jesus
I've felt the kiss of death
Authority even fools respect
Wither of bones and death flowers

Hope for a lifetime of charity
Secrets even to shadows
The deepest cracks glow in me
And they shed light on the path

Arrogance hands off lies to all
The praying men have ceased
Guns are loaded and windows broken
And here that butterfly has been trapped

Peacemaker is now engraved in stanza
Loser awaits release
While grandma's spiders want to lend a limb
All the voices are beginning to bow
My own voice has been established
Even spirits must stand silent
The vampire remembers how to love
All my shed blood has become beautiful
And light sheds truth firmly
My chains fall and the dungeon has a new stairwell
The masses shift to exit
This pressure shifts inside me

Drop
Stop
Clear
Sleep

Jesus is spirit
Spirit is untame
Spirit is free
I only feel spirits and do not see

    Your poetry has a sort-of rhythmic intensity to it; very enticing.

    I loved the parting lines:

"Jesus is spirit
Spirit is untame
Spirit is free
I only feel spirits and do not see"
