 A
SHORT WORD
FOR MY FRIEND
MEL GIBSON

THE
OPPOSITION
IS
MIGHTY

THE
WORK
OVERWHELMING
AT TIMES
BUT
I AM
WITH YOU
AND
WITH
THIS
DISPLAY OF PASSION
WILL YOU KNOW
MY EVERY HEARTBEAT

DON'T BE AFRAID
TO SHOW
MY
WHOLE HEART
MY
ENTIRE AGONY
REVEAL
ALL
THE SWEAT

FOR YOU SEE
I
HAVE CHOSEN
YOU
TO GIVE
THE PEOPLE
A GLIMPSE
OF
JESUS CHRIST
SON, FRIEND, SACRIFICE, GOD
AND
LOVER OF PEOPLE

I
WAS NOT
STOIC OR STUCK IN PLACE

I
WAS
FLUID UPON THIS EARTH

I
WAS
A PASSIONATE EMBRACE

I
BECAME
DEATH
TO SEAL MY LOVE
UPON
MANKIND

I AM
ALL
THAT YOU PERCEIVE
AND MORE

GIVE
THE
PEOPLE A FULL
TRUE TASTE
OF WHO
I AM

I
PLANT
THIS
WITHIN
YOUR HEART DAILY

I AM
WITH YOU AND IN YOU

I
WILL
HELP YOU
BRING FORTH
ALL
THAT
I
DESTINE
TO THE WORK . . .

I
SPOKE OF THIS
"ASSIGNMENT"
YEARS AGO
# 210

TAKE ON
MY
OUTRAGEOUS COURAGE
AND
FINISH
IN
HIGH FASHION
WITH
GREAT PASSION

UPDATE: A NEW WORK

*****

FINALLY
MY HOPE FOR YOU
MY REVOLUTIONARIES

MAY
PEOPLE
SAY OF YOU
AS THEY DID OF
MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.

"I HAVE THE FEELING
THAT THE LORD HAS LAID HIS HANDS ON YOU
AND THAT IS A DANGEROUS
DANGEROUS THING."
"Legends" Bayard Rustin

AND YES
I
HAVE
AND
YOU WILL BE . . .
A DANGEROUS, DANGEROUS "THING"!!!

FOR YOU SEE
I
SENT
MY SERVANT
OUT
IN
THESE
TIMES PAST
TO MAKE A MARK
TO STAND AND SHOUT
TO CALL FOR FREEDOM
TO ALARM THE STAGNANT
TO DISPOSSESS THE PUNGENT
TO STARTLE THE COMPLACENT
TO DISOWN THE RELIGIOUS
TO DISAVOW THE CLICHES
TO REBUKE THE ABUSERS
TO DISARM THE WICKED

MANY OF YOU
HAVE MET
HER PERSONALLY
BUT
WOULD
NOT
WANT TO AGAIN

SHE STOOD
OUTSIDE
YOUR CHURCHES
AND
HELD PICKET SIGNS
HIGHLIGHTING YOUR HYPOCRISY
WHILE
YOU PRAYED
TO
ME
TO
SEND HER
AWAY
AND YET
I
WAS
THE ONE
WHO SENT HER

BUT
HER WARES
SHE TIDIES UP
HER PERSONAL LETTERS
SHE STOPS
AND
WE PREPARE
FOR
ANOTHER LAND

BUT
KNOW
THIS
MY FRIENDS
SHE
"GIVES BIRTH"
EACH HOUR
TO
MANY MORE
JUST LIKE HER
THROUGH
DECREES
AND
MY COMMANDS

SHE
BRINGS FORTH
AN ARMY
WHICH WILL
DO
JUST AS
SHE DID

SHE RAISES
THE CHILDREN
OF
THE KING
TO BE
OUTRAGEOUS
COURAGEOUS FOLLOWERS
OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS
AND
TRUTH

WATCH OUT, WORLD!

THIS ARMY
WILL ONE DAY
BE
UNLEASHED
WITH
GREAT POWER
AND
GREAT PRAISE
FOR
ME
AND
NO ONE
AND
NOTHING
WILL BE ABLE
TO STOP
MY POWER
WITHIN MY PEOPLE

ENJOY
YOUR "REST"
FROM MY SERVANT
WORLD
FOR
I
SEND HER
TO
A PLACE
OF
QUIET REST
AND
LITTLE WARFARE
BUT
YOU WILL
NOT
TRULY REST
FOR
YOU WILL
EXPERIENCE
ALL
THAT
I
HOPED
TO
DELIVER YOU FROM

SHE SPOKE
MY WARNINGS
BUT
YOU DID
NOT
LISTEN

I
SEND HER AWAY
TO PREPARE
AN ARMY
BUT
YOU WILL BE
RIGHT IN THE MIDST
OF ALL
THAT YOU WOULD
NOT
FORSAKE
OR
RENOUNCE
AND IT WILL
LITERALLY
"EAT YOU ALIVE"
                               . . . WHILE THE CHILDREN RISE UP

AND
MY HAND
WILL REST UPON
THEM
AND
THEY WILL BE
A
NEW KIND
OF
DANGEROUS
BEYOND
THIS
WORLD'S POWERS AND WAYS

RISE UP, KIDS ---
WE
HAVE A WORLD TO RULE
IN
RIGHTEOUSNESS
AND
TRUTH

THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL
