Sweet Escape to Kadesh-Barnea
breaking bread and drinking sangria
a festival undetestable
celebrating their awaiting
unquestionably suggestively
but Meribah was waiting
for those who felt forsaken
the olive tree was shaken
and strongholds started breaking
a transit much worth taking
led on a craggy mile
the knowing lend a smile
the prideful boast
the judgement post
the striking of the rock
it all came as a shock
what will not let us in
religion of our sin
what evil lays to waste
leaves such a bitter taste
The Brook Cherith
let me share with
all who lend an ear
come gather round draw near
the prophet's shell
did teach him well
he suffered hell
by Jezebel
but there he found such ease
steak sandwiches in trees
but then the brook went dry
deliveries couldn't fly
he had to make a move
though some might disapprove
The Promised Land
please understand
it didn't come with ease
though some of the difficulties
were frought with this disease
an unbelieving mind
the glory was left behind
"we're as grasshoppers!" some perceived
still a remnant did believe.
