DOWNPOUR

Joshua meador rainy windy day
Shivering branches scares fleeing birds
Waving clothes seeks
The cozy corner of a wardrobe
Palm trees block against the wind
The sky pulls a curtain of blackness
Fleeing kids,
jumping Josh jams James
Litters of rubbish terrified by drops
Groaning doors and clapping windows
Closing doors closes stalls
Noisy roofs and flowing streams
Across the street
we see a wetting floor
Speaking sky yells out thunder
Fright and comfort
Cool and noise
Just another wet day
on a suppose Sunday

" The phrase “Sisters Keeper” certainly doesn’t appear on the pages of the Bible. But I guess you’ve got a knack of all it’s about. It suggests being sincerely concerned for the state of being of female folks. In this context, I write strictly to the church of the Living God. On second thoughts this should have been titled, “Letter to insensitive brothers.” Let me indulge you for few seconds. Why do Christian sisters fall victim to deceivers? Why would they prefer to marry outside God’s fold? Why does it seem their heart is with God’s family but their eyes are ever wondering into the world (as it seems)? Why is there such an exploitation of your sister and my sister...
