Jesus
I usually do my praying work at night
under pallid moonlight
Assuming myself in that deep piety,
praying with my hands holding tight.
I wondered, yesterday, in vanity
If you could hear my praying so far
from my eastern mar.
Jesus
I wonder if I am a qualified believer so long,
Wearing my traditional China silk
I do not want to do anything wrong.
Bleeding, burn from my broken heart
I pray to you in my bloated bulk
and kneel
on my shallow spring bed just like an art.
I was in my bare foot, yesterday,
of that stigma inundated my light,
Praying in despair
to sew my separate soul right,
Crying in muteness,
Silent, weak as small toe
Wish you could perceive my woe.
Once
I wished to find my way in this indefatigable world
To fit in
my wild exotic eyes my foreign brown skin and my slim eastern hand
So I pray hard to hold
My mama’s heritage and my family’s grand.
Heard enough promises, empty and fake
Now, I wish to hold something else, in faith
The reason of my self existence, my strong belief
Or if foreign is my only sin.
Jesus, I wish you could hear,
Flatten my raven head at here.
Jesus, praying
thousand miles away from your divined land.
Disbelief or deterrent
Existence omnipresent even world’s gent.
You are not there.
Heaven
soprano saxophone shines in grand
plays songs of Allman Brothers Band
People move like swirled snakes
Flesh fall, eye blind,
Music flows on you like cherry cream cake
Light dizzy, dream drain.
My praying comes
From another land, yearning
From a boy’s bloody backbone.
Jesus , can you hear,
from a time gathered by believers.
I wonder
would I be a better follower
Were I born in a time for believers.
Or whether
In sedation shines still the cathedral’s glamour
When my world is weathered
By truth and lies, books boosting briar.
I try to find out the answer by praying,
At night, every night, I am floundering,
To beseech, for the retention not killing for keen.
Jesus, I am praying hard, not to be plunged by a peen.
Yesterday
My teacher told me, in rage,
We were living in substantive, secular, no sage,
Jesus, she told me not to suppose
The actual hue of your rose.
Clutched my religion tie, she
Inhibited my follow,
Of your footsteps, no
Disciple in color of yellow.
Jesus
People, told me about, inveterate Truth,
Humans, enter and out, by path,
From Bocca della Verita to San Francisco,
Chase after glimmers of truthfulness, and then go.
One who tried to grab and grasp thousands years ago
Now disgruntle and desolate forego
their beliefs.
They call it relief.
I wonder
Have we been able to survive in speciousness
When heavy hat shadows Luna brightness.
Or whether
People flag away in fiasco, fade faithlessly in reality
In a time of collapse and ephemerality.
I can not can not tell
Jesus, when perished flowers pulverized by sorrow
Scars burning in dirty yellow I see people
groaning like brown corpse of that bitten worm
Twisting out of a chrysail
Last night I hear
Lunatic screaming
Dieu Aue Le Munde Est Injuste
Monsters hunting, People dying
Jesus.
Jesus
I am still holding my hands tight and well
Tonight, still believe in love and real
In rosy dew, body rue
Pray to be protected under your glamour and you,
Clasp me like fragrant tide,
so that I will not be drifted away in wild wide
When believers desert, Big Ben ring.
Standing still on this foreign land,
I am praying to you, Jesus
Thousands miles away from your divinity,
just praying.
