Poems form the book:
TROUBLE
We were made from his words,
Dust formed our flesh
Through His breath, we became a living being
Nurtured by Mother Nature
But troubles and danger seem to be the mother of life
Depriving us of our peace and happiness
Empty our pockets and fill our days with worries
We are left with no choice than to kill or be killed
We try to hide
Trouble still finds us
Struggling to survive
Surviving in struggles
Living just to die
Dying just to live
As our mental conflicts remain constant
Adonai, the path I wander
Curse me to find peace even in chaos
The hunger I endured,
Fill my stomach in starvation
Shade me with your wings against troubles
That I may overcome effortlessly
Curse me to smile in the face of danger
And let Mother Nature remain Mother Nature.
May the wind dry my tears
Let me find comfort in solitude
The world is noisy,
Leme find peace even in chaos
Leme find words in quiet places
The world is crooked,
Let my thoughts be straight forward
I have understood some little things in life
Still I'm clothed in foolishness
My lips move in contradiction
Sometimes wanders away from truth
My eyes see the good
Yet in pretence stare at the bad
My feet wander to evil
Leaving foot marks of good
My heart yearns for love
In reverse plotting evil
El Echad, in prostration I'm like a rag
Let your foolishness enlighten me
Let the seed of that revelation,
Become a fruit for my dying stomach
Let your wind, shape my path
Let the sun be my truth
Let the moon hide my weaknesses
Let the rivers, drown my sweat
