Lest Ye Be Judged
God knew my love for rhyming verse, and it was through this medium that he chose to teach me. If I had questions, I'd sit down to write, and the answers came. Many of my poems deal with the clash between the world ... and God.

Good Enough
God teaches us differently. I was a proud agnostic before my NDE in 1992. I was a proud Christian after, elevating myself because of that NDE. But through my poetry, God called me out, and taught me through my own work. Once learned, I shared the lesson.

I Am God
A rebuke of the pretentious members of humanity, among whom I still number; who see themselves as more than average, more than sinners. The artist or poet who creates for acclaim, glorifying flowers, rather than the flower's Maker.
