Who seeks more than he needs hinders himself from enjoying what he has.
Have hues a role?
Grass lends beauty to ‘green’;
Tooth lends beauty to ‘white’;
Sky lends beauty to ‘blue’.
So do lips to ‘red’.
Red lips excel red blood;
Brown horse excel brown ass;
Yellow gold excels yellow brass.
So does black hair, black skin.
Black hair yields to white hair;
Green meadow yields to gray one.
Brown curls yield to fallen leaves
So does tender skin to one wrinkled.
The stuff rules; the merit rules;
The young rules. Have hues a role?

The wolf does that in the course of the week which hinders him from going to mass on Sunday.
Nothing hinders a thing from being natural so much as the straining ourselves to make it seem so.

The Kiss
Should i kiss you
as marble antiquity
Or sharply
- this less peck
tempting trochee aesthetic
That I
We
should might make
distinctions
between kinetic
Idiosyncratic
aberration's
tick-tock rude clock timing
Alienations'
indecision
incision
As yet our kiss
far more than lesser this
Our Kiss
Lends Lips
Our Kiss
Lends Lips for Lisp
Like poets' lunging
lavish ravish
unctuous rambunctious rhyming
Our Kiss
Quills' Quivering Quips

To receive applause for works which do not demand all our powers hinders our advance towards a perfecting of our spirit. It usually means that thereafter we stand still.

A Thread Of Silence
I have long wished to follow the
thread of silence
like a worm in your brain
wanting to discover
the secrets of your
wonder
i stop.
the gate of respect is closed
and hinders me from further
intruding
into your castle.

No More Burdens
To think that soon we’ll be free, of burdens shackling you and me,
Burdens that we face in our life, that burden us with pain and strife.
Burdens which shackle our heart, that at times, seem not to depart,
As it hinders Christ’s peace within, for, we turn our focus from Him.
Freedom was bought for you and me, by Jesus Christ upon a tree,
When blood flowed for everyone, from the side of God’s own Son.
And we begin to experience this, as we accept God’s precious Gift,
The Lord God’s gift of salvation, offered at Calvary to every nation.
Even though we are Born Again, we still live on earth, as sinful men,
Hindered by our own sin nature, that within all men, is far from pure,
It is this struggle we have within, that hinders us in this world of sin,
Being in a world that is so unkind, disrupts in us our peace of mind.
Although in Christ we do believe, the devil stills attempts to deceive,
This to destroy God’s peace in us, who in Christ have put their trust,
As he desires to sift us like wheat, to produce in us spiritual defeat,
But, this world will not discount, what Christ did on Calvary’s Mount.
For soon we’ll be in Heaven above, surrounded only by God’s love,
Satan’s darkness will be no more, as we are in the Light of our Lord.
And before we enter into Eternity, sin is banished from you and me,
To live new lives with no end, in the perfection of Heaven my friend.

If a man lends an ear, it's because he, too, wants to speak.
He who lends to the poor get his interest from God.
