‘
Tablet of Their Heart’ (contest Tablet – Georgespeechley)
its constant lovely throbbing beat.
Desperate. Yes. Impeachable.
Seeking shadowy haunting treats–
deliciously swallowed poisons
dripping slowly, traversing veins
coiling as tainted ink through sons
taught treason until death attains.
“Look! There are those saying to me:
“Where is the word of Jehovah?
Let it come, please!” Jer. 17:1, 5, 7. Sincerely?
As stroke desired by those with ‘VAH’*.
“The sin of Judah” once stated:
is written down with an iron”
pen, “stylus”, anciently dated
“with a diamond point”–unhappy, Scion.
Sadly, of their sins gravely said:
“it is engraved on the tablet
of their heart.” Actions as ‘true’ led
‘false’. Drawn strong by ‘wrong’ cabinet.
For, “This is what Jehovah says:
“Cursed is the man who puts his trust
in mere humans,” chained to process
of dying disdained; caused by lust.
“Who relies on human power”.
Makes flesh his arm. “And whose heart turns
away from Jehovah.”… Cower,
they will. Since of badness they yearn.
However: “Blessed is the man who
puts his trust in Jehovah,” do.
“Whose confidence is in” Him, true.
“Jehovah.”… Love Him… He loves… You.
