Stuffed

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

Blind and Lazy, Greedy and Foolish

Done a little

Done a lot

Never moving from this spot

Move a little

Or a lot

Never giving what I’ve got

And at the end of vanities

A hellish cold, my soul to freeze

God bless,

>P<

Tent

Circling Around

Coming to a fork

Turn left

Another turn

Again left

Around the bend

Turning left?

Stuck in a circle

Still left??!!

Help!!

Shepherd’s staff, Thunk!

No longer left bereft

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Focused Diligence

Take a step

Climb the slope

Never in hubris

Never mope

Just take a step

Then again

Now a man

Amongst all men

God bless,

Boinggy

Less Talky, More Walky

Lips move

Sounds sound

Nothing improves

Until feet hit the ground

Prayer

Words to the Word

Love to the Ghost

Self to the Father

Praises of the host

Glory of the people

Baptized in His death

Living in His mercy

Breathing in His breath

God bless,

Disc Golf

Lost Lamb’s Cry

In the center, out

Breathing once again

Tearing away doubt

Opening the pen

Freedom with a shout!

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

True Death

Caught and bent

Twisted within

Sparkled and spent

Suddenly dim

Light that went

Out on its own whim

Gods bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

My Heart to Bursting

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey

Face the Music

Words that deceive

Twist the eyes away

From seeing Truth

Obstructing time to pray

From seeing Love

Putting family on the shelf

From seeing God

Even in oneself

God bless,

>P<

Prayer While Cooking

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Self-absorbed

Circling in my own little universe

Round and round in a pitiful snow globe

Anxious about the perfection, immersed

In a nonexistent irrelevant lobe

Despair tears at my soul

And I call to the God who is whole

Rudely I demand a probe

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Protection

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

Before Meals

Simple day

Simple drive

Simply pray

Over simple fries

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Living on a Prayer

Wearing pain like a badge

Shielding me from care

But every wall built crumbles

In the onslaught of daily prayer

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Light

God bless,

Now Choose!

Closets full, diversely organized 

Blacks and reds and whites in any size

Shoes and jackets, hats and socks

Suits and dresses, shorts and frocks

But what to pack in single bag?

Space contorts and time will lag

Finding the rightness in infinite choice

Calls courage and wisdom to voice

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Robbed

Robbed myself blind

Beaten the fool

Soul scarred and lined

With a torturous tool

Yet my wounds close

My heart in an embrace

Because you choose

To have taken my place

(Sorry for forgetting to post)

God bless,

Summer Haiku

Heat drying out Earth

Flames devour the skies and seas

Extinction event

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

Distance

Moats define

Drawbridge up

Ramparts patrolled 

Soldiers sup

None know what’s within

A heart closed off because of sin

God bless,

>P<

Joshua Fahey 

Hydrant

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

Charting the Flow

Rivers run run run

Never always there

Courses change change change

Both frequently and rare

Yet in fun fun fun

River rafters dare

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

Peace

God bless,

Joshua Fahey 

Laborers

Sent to danger

Peril and suffering

Foolishness to Greeks

Happily go the saints
