Country Woman
Country women now, what you gonna do with your life
Country women now, why dont you get out of this life
Leave my life alone
The first time I met you I knew you were the devils daughter
You came on like a river , doin all the things you oughta
Youre a self made women ,baby, not a made-to-order
If you had your way , I know youd make me stay
And that would only bring me down
Country women now, what you gonna do with your life
Country women now, why dont you get out of this life
Leave my life alone

Leave my life alone

Globalized Chocolates!
Extracted from the seeds of tropical climate,
Unearthed the remnants of sweet beverage,
The drink of Natives for many thousand years,
Imported to the Europe as cocoa seeds and solids,
When the dark cocoa solid and cocoa butter,
Emulsified with white milk, the recipe found,
In the continent of Europe, but in South America,
Natives were slaughtered, their notes burned,
Their temples, culture and identity ruined,
Their women were separated and raped,
The chocolate was born in the continent of white,
where white, dark and mixed chocolates are sold,
recipe exported to every nook and corner of the world,
the globalization of a commodity before the chips.

Messianic Judaism morphs
into contemporary Christianity
movement syncretic religious
arose in ritual American 1960s
adds to evangelical Christian theology
some elements of Jewish terminology
at least 150 Messianic houses
of worship in the United States
by 2003 embrace life teachings
over 400 worldwide members
of larger Messianic organizations?
alliances by 2008 an estimated
6,000 to15,000 members
are living in Israel worshippers
estimated 13 million believers
world wide over ten years
ago; defined themselves
Messianic Jewish believers
this is what the original church
under Jesus Christ originated as
ministry of Jesus was the tribes
only the tribes of Judah and Israel
Paul opened ministry to the Gentiles
but forget numbers on pages places
true worship is sincerity of believers
Split imaging from the poem ‘Jesus In Messianic Judaism’ by Terence George Craddock.
