Hail Mary

I don't often get to Adoration 

Don't often do a rosary 

Don't often do the holy hours

Not very disciplined yet you see

But oh the power I have found 

In just one Hail Mary 

It's more glorious than any prayer

And It always sets me free 

Hail Mary full of grace 

I daily kiss your face 

As I put on my brown scapular 

I know I'm off your race 

The Lord is with thee my holy Queen

Blessed always art thou

Among women oh our Mother

I daily to you bow

Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus 

Oh holy Mary mother of God

Pray for us sinners now

And at our death this is not odd

For Mary is alive and well

Reigning with her Son 

With all the saints no sinners there

All are truly One

I love you Mary

I love you Mary 

Very much 

I love you mum 

You always touch

Me your child

Broken and wild

Often sinful

Much defiled

But mum you hold me

In your arms I am

I love to be there

As you held the Lamb 

Of God my Mother 

You held him dear

You healed his pain

Wiped each tear

Honour Mary

Isn't it wonderful 

A catholic to be 

To call out to Mary

Who does see

All her children 

Their trials and woes

She bore the most

Oh all our foes

Fall down before 

Our Holy Queen

The seraphim and cherubim

Don't get mean 

When she is exalted

More than they 

More honourable and glorious

Is she in every way 

To honour Mary  

Is to honour humanity 

To love her 

Is the key 

To loving oneself 

And your neighbour 

Oh come to Mary 

And do not labour 

Peace joy and love

Peace be with you
In trials and in good times
Peace be with you
When sorrow's bell chimes
Peace be with you
In all life's blessings
Peace be with you
When all hell at you is pressing

Joy be yours
At lent and at Christmas
Joy be yours
At every Mass
Joy be yours
At every happy song
Joy be yours
When sad songs last too long

Love be manifest
To every sister and brother
Love be manifest
To every Father and Mother
Love be manifest
To the rich and the poor
Love be manifest
She ever shall endure

Meds

Medication
Goodbye
Mother Mary
Heard my cry
Me her
Little one
Me her
Broken Son

Better to live
A week or two
Than a year
Doped through and through
So I've thrown away
Medication
This time for good
Oh meditation

Come to me
Heal my soul
I've had a full year
Feeling whole
Without
The doctors meds
I was a fool again
To them wed

4 weeks
I gave you
4 weeks
I was true
To your
Psychotic ways
Now Christ
Will heal my days 

Weeping flames

Set me on fire 

With evangelistic zeal 

Enough of this 

Ecumenical meal 

Take my body 

Set me on fire 

Tea and buns

Is so dire 

Hell is crackling

Demons rejoice 

The church has lost 

Her zealous voice 

Nicety nicety 

Let's all be 

Dam that meeting 

Dam that meal 

Come home come home 

Ruuuuuuuunnnnnnn

Flee from the wrath 

Soon to come 

Oh Nations 

Hear me 

Today is the day 

To finally flee

Abilify

Can't concentrate

Can't sit a peace 

Abilify abilify 

You do increase 

My sleeplessness 

My restlessness

Walking with you 

Is like playing chess

5 milligram 

It all started 

Sleepless till 10

Has me karted 

Off to sleep

A little too much 

Oh my rock 

Me do touch 

I hate hate 

Medication 

I prefer prefer

Meditation 

But how can I 

Mediate 

When they have me 

To medicate 

Help me my rock 

Hide me my King 

I can barely to you 

Now even sing
This is my 7th attempt
At taking drugs
Kiss me instead
Give me hugs

A love poem

You are a night person
Me a morning
Yet we kiss at even
No need for mourning
We meet in the middle
As the sun kisses the sea
I am for you
And you are for me

Deeper the sun immerses
Itself in the sea
Deeper in you
I can only be
One with you
And you with me
Let our love
Children see

Your hair is long
Mines short
Your body curves
Mine does distort
A mans true appearance
Flabby untoned
But till death
You promised it's owned

By you by you
Yours is mine
We are one
With new wine
Daily are vows
To fulfil
Come and let us
Kiss Gods will

Renew your vows
With me again
I'm going through with it
Deadly pain
Reverse what was
A grave sin
Come with me
Loves pain will win

No escape

You can't escape him 

He is the beginning 

He is the end 

Surrender your sinning 

Your denial 

Of who he is 

Life is no game 

It is no quiz 

You are a morally 

Responsible creature 

God has sent us 

Many a preacher 

To tell us we will 

Come to judgement 

And death is too late 

To then repent 

Jesus Christ 

Is almighty God 

Deny this 

And you defraud 

Your very self 

Poor poor soul 

To feel the wrath 

Of his unending bowl 

Oh you won't escape him 

Come now 

For all will come in the end 

And all will bow 

Those redeemed 

And those dammed 

Will not escape 

The holy Lamb 

Gently pick

Mass is a Holy sacrifice

It's not for strumming 

It's not for drumming 

Tis a place for silence 

Silent violence 

Holy awe 

Broken law

Holy kept 

Jesus wept 

This representation

In every nation 

Chant the glory 

Tell the story 

Gently pick 

Not too quick 

Let the people sing 

Christ's anthem ring 

Don't go solo

Play your bow 

Touch each string 

To the King 

Better still 

The Churches will 

Train up an organist 

Don't resist 

The churches authority 

Don't you see 

There's Vatican 2

Against what you would do 

Prefer prefer 

Peters chair 

No poems left

No poems left 

All gone out 

Perhaps a rest 

And then again shout 

Out the wonders 

I have seen 

What a year 

It has been 

This time last year 

I would soon be

In Edinburgh City 

A stone to see

But it was just a stone 

That's all it was 

It gave no life 

Nothing ever does

But Christ but Christ 

My living rock 

Time is ticking 

On the clock 

Submit your knee

To chosen kephas 

And get yourself

Off to Mass

The meds are 

Kicking in 

While Christ delivers 

Me from sin 

My stupid delusions 

If you only knew 

I'm going in last

Predestined too

A saint I do 

Long to be

For you beloved 

Not for me

To show you the wounds

Of your king

Here take my blood

And let it sing

The Catholic Pipe

Reach out
Senses delighted
Aroma delicious
Time it lighted
But first pack it
One two three
Damp it down
Now be free
To strike a match
Up it lights
Puff puff puff
How it delights
Relax sit back
Think of Christ
And oh how highly
You are priced
Liberty
Creation so good
Dualism
No longer my food
For we are all
Born to die
So temperately
Enjoy all things now
See the smoke
Arise arise
25 minutes
Of perfect sighs
Thinking about
Many a thing
As my heart to Jesus
Does fully sing
Oh the transformation
In my life
Is unspeakably glorious
Amid earth's strife
Final breath
Lay it down
In Christ's arms
To be forever found
Fear no longer
Does hold me
I'm a Catholic
I am free

Heal the wheat

Be anxious for nothing
Words so pure
Yet this can be an illness
Christ the cure
Don't be anxious
About anxiety
Be still
Come in piety

To blessed Mary
She loves you
See her wounds
For you
Kiss her crown
Her royal power
Satan be gone
Now this hour

Christ reign
In the weak
Despairing of life
Lift up the meek
Trample satan
Under their feet
Burn up the chaff
Heal the wheat

Free

Freedom
Yes I'm free
Fullness
Yes in me
Joy
Overflowing
Peace
Ever growing

Catholic Catholic
Catholic truth
It liberates
See my proof

Not perfect
No way
Just dancing
With Yahweh
Full of hope
Full of faith
In his Church
I'm kept safe

Catholic Catholic
Holy Bride
In you ever
May I abide

How does one write a poem

How does one write a poem
I'm afraid I know not
I just put down my feelings
With words that rhyme a lot
I try to find a word
For example take man
An ban can dan...
Till I finally reach plan

Will it fit in
It normally always does
Why is that so
I guess just because
That's how simple
Life should always be
And when a poem touches you
Do know it touches me

So write yourself a poem
If that's what this is
Tell us about your life
Tell us all the biz
What's going on
Are you weak or are you strong
Keep it short unlike me
Don't go on very long

Perhaps it's just creative writing
Poems I rarely read
Many I don't understand
I cannot them really heed
I think I'll do a course
And learn properly
And later write a proper poem
Well I guess we'll wait and see

Is there a place

Is there a place
In heaven for me
I love people
But I can't with them be
I'm too broken
Badly beaten
Maybe a doorkeeper
Always meeting

People for 

A minute or two
Give them more time
And they'll see through
Who I truly
Really am
An angry proud fool
Oh God don't dam

Me to the hell
Of my own making
My bipolar excuse
Could be me faking
All I am
Deep inside
Oh fling for me
Your gates open wide

To a protestant gathering

You gather
With no unity
You speak
With no authority
You talk down
In fear
You mock
Costing you dear
Your ignorance
Is manifold
Your hatred
So cold
Well
Disguised
I'm
Despised
Very cleverly
Yet Yahweh sees
Your dark heart
That hates St Peters keys
I finally can't be
In your meeting
In this group
I can't be seating
In your gathering
I'm too weak
To win the religious
And kiss their cheek
I'm gone for good
I pray you blessings
That one day you'll be
Soon Confessing
Just as did I
I want to cry
For your election
But I feel too much rejection
So all I can do
Is pray for you
Please pray for me
That together we'll see
How Christ treated
The outcast among him
I was just one person
Oh so dim
To go along
To a protestant gathering
I'd have been better off
In a bath lathering
Praying the Rosary
Oh Mother Mary
Forgive me for
Making your heart weary
Of all I am
Broken so sore
Come to me
Your Love pour

Give me the broken

Give me the broken
Give me the weak
Give me the weary
And all the meek
Give me the hated
The despised and rejected
Give me all the ones
Whom God has elected

Give me the poor
Give me the mourners
Give me the hopeless
Who've been wounded by the scorners
Give me the helpless
Give me my brothers
And all my sisters
Who love one another

Give me Jesus
Give me the Father
Give me the Spirit
Oh come and gather
In Holy
Unity
Church of Christ
Be one and free

Holy Persistence

With just one thought
I can turn it all around
To go back up
If I'm about to go down
That thought
Is of you
The eternal one
Who is ever true

Sovereign King
You are in control
Of it all
Your purpose your goal
Shall not be thwarted
By any man
Nor any demons
Futile plan

Be still
Gods child
Fear not
Don't go wild
God has a plan
Perfect and true
For me
And for you

Rest rest
Your weary head
Though you feel
Stone cold dead
Gods gotcha
Right where he wants
Think of the deer
Who achingly pants

For water

Hunted so long
Can hardly stand
His faint song
Yet It does pant
And God draws near
The deer sees not
But never fear

God is there
God is there
I once believed not
I was unaware
That at the darkest point
Of your existence
God is closest
Praise His holy persistence

The wedding video

I watch you walk down

The isle once again
I see your perfection
Did you know the pain
The illness the journey
That did await
Would you have closed the door
Locked the gate

In sickness and in health
Till death do us part
You have set me like a
Seal on your heart
Though at times you may
Have liked to set me
On a bed of hot nails
And ran off free

Oh beautiful one
You've changed not a bit
You've still good humour
Such good wit
Such a beautiful gracious
Lovely face
Eyes far apart
Destined for the Catholic race

I joke of course
My Irish Queen
I'm in love with you
Have always been
I want you now
To be ever you
And to yourself
Be always true

Perfect

Give me the perfect poem
Give me the perfect picture
Let me frame them on my wall
As a permanent fixture

God just spoke
We are his poem of perfection
Christ crucified the picture perfect
And his resurrection

Both I've got
For I've got you
I've got a crucifix
More than one or two
What more
Do I need in life
Than 2 perfect witnesses
Amidst holy strife

Go away

Do you ever want to just run away
Far far from yourself
Oh how good if I could take
A holiday from myself
Take me away
Hide me my God
Under your shadow
I'm deeply flawed

Kiss me in the morning
At early adoration
Push me out of bed
To kiss each station
To kneel before blessed Mary
And my friend St Therese
And worship only the Trinity
Always all my days

Flee from me
My sinful self
Your not good
For my health
I want to be with
Jesus Christ
Go away
He alone is priced

Higher than I
Is he
Really
Come see
Do I break 

The first command
Oh flee myself
Let Christ alone stand

Forgive me for being a Catholic?

God will forgive me for being a catholic
The evangelist today said
I prophesied to Him
He would one day be led
Into the Catholic Church
He had a good bad heart
And I enjoyed the conversation
But we soon had to part

Was I born again
Yes I quickly said
When did it happen
At 3 weeks my blessed head
Saved me, saved me
Yes Jesus did
When I was just a baby
Not even yet a kid

God will forgive me for being a Catholic
I gently at him smiled
I could see his ache
I chose meek and I chose mild
Why beat up a protestant
With the lions truth
Be like a lamb
It is the best proof

He told me a trainee priest
Said purgatory was going
Either he picked him up wrong
Or more training needed sowing
I doubt that very much
Oh what could Peter change
In faith and morals
Nothing needs rearranged

So we parted ways
Not before saying
He learnt all he did
From former catholics laying
Their dodgy teaching
Into his heart
Oh Gods people know your faith
Or perish foolish hearts

The human heart

One night God showed me
The depths of the human heart
It was heartless, black
And badly torn apart
Eternal torment on that night
Seemed a perfect judgement
It was my heart revealed
Oh how I did lament

It was a terrible place to go
Every law broken
Out of my heart
In vileness it was soaking
God spoke clearly
His judgement was coming
Now to write a poem
So men would begin running

To Christ to Christ
Oh flee now to him
And speedily repent
Of all your wicked sin
Give it up surrender now
You know not what you are
One revelation from our God
Could show you just how far

You are from him
Oh deceitful heart
Desperately wicked
It must eternally depart
Into outer
Darkness and torment
The vain imaginations
That never shall repent  

Siamese cats

I never liked them very much 

Then you entered my home 

Unplanned spontaneous 

Here you did roam 

One sleepless night 

Was all I had 

You missed your family 

For you I felt sad 

Siamese cat 

You talk a lot 

Then so can I 

Each other we got 

You remind me of

The Angels in glory 

Your beautiful ways 

Tell me a story

Affectionate loving 

Cuddly and stunning 

Beautiful faces 

Quietly cunning 

How you stole my heart 

My little friends 

I was never keen on cats 

But your ways do mend 

How I even 

See God my king

Peaceful restful 

That makes my heart sing 

You're created 

In perfection 

I believe you'll be with me

In my resurrection 

How I know not 

But how could you not 

Perfect creatures 

Eternally rot 

I love you 

And you love me 

Your friendship 

Sets me free 

A storm is coming

Time is fleeing
The bride is ready
Beaten so perfect
Stable and steady
Get on this boat
She alone will float
A storm is coming
Everything else will drown

Goodnight

I've no money
But I'm rich
My wounds heal
Without a stitch
I need nothing
For I have all
Christ exalted
Though I fall

On earth I eat
Heavenly food
With revelation
Have we understood
With one bite
There dwells a feast
We have most
When we have least

It's complicated
This simple bread
To live in us
God became dead
With few words
Much can be said
So I'm just gonna
Go to bed

Goodnight friends 

Gloria

Is there a perfect poem 

I could write

If I could compose your life 

It would be just right 

For you are the poem 

Of Yahwehs light 

I love you my friend 

Oh end dark night 

My God hear me pray 

For your poetic creation

Hearken unto my voice 

Listen to my supplication 

For my friend 

She is your delight 

Your perfect poem 

In her dark night 

Oh Gloria in excelsis 

Deo

Oh Gloria in excelsis 

Flee foe

Oh Gloria in excelsis 

Oh do know 

Gloria in excelsis 

Rivers now flow

May our God 

Lift you high 

Heal your wounds 

Your tears you cry 

Store them up 

In his bottle to collect 

The silent prayers 

Of all His elect 

Like

When you like my poem
I somehow feel
You like me
And I do heal
A little more
Through your encouragement
That you graciously to me
Have now sent

I grew up hated
Probably not
But my broken mind
Felt it a lot
Hyper sensitive
Very weak
But your little like
Does kiss my cheek

Oh holy beautiful
Facebook friend
God does love you
And daily does defend
Your honour
Your fame
He too taps like
When he sees your name  

Exhausted

Exhausted
Can hardly type
Phone me now
I'd rather Skype
And hear your voice
See your smile
Be nearer you
For a while

Exhausted
But that's okay
Young men can grow
Weary any day
Only to fall
Into arms of mercy
To arise on wings
Of eagles free

No longer bound
To the ground
Of sin and pleasure
Hope is found
Not in being
Really good
But as a beggar eating
Freedoms food

I love Mary

I love you Mary 

So so much 

Intercede for me 

Your Son do touch

I know he hears 

The righteous prayers 

Availing much 

He ever cares 

Oh my Mother 

I'm in love with thee 

You're my Queen 

Ever with me 

I know my devotion 

Like worship does appear

As I honour thee

And you draw near 

Lovers often 

Appear idolatrous 

But before you stop 

And me do cuss 

My love and devotion 

To blessed Mary 

Think of Christ 

And become teary 

Who loves her 

More than he 

Who exalted her 

More you see

He crowned her 

The heavenly Queen

I enthrone her 

Be no longer mean 

Where do you think 

Mary dwells

Buy the truth 

That never sells 

If she be risen 

With her King

You think she's knitting 

Or his prayers to bring 

Is she resting 

On a cloud 

Or trampling down satan 

And all the proud 

Hear me now 

To love Mary 

Is to love humanity

No longer query 

Surrender

I gave up Ireland to Christ
Nationalism can be a deadly schism
Come to Christ
For he has risen
32 counties
Belong to thee
Only you
Can set them free

I gave up Ireland for love
Love of my brother separated
From holy food
He should never be hated
The world needs
Our holy reunion
Come home beloved
To daily communion

I gave up Ireland for I seen
Foolish pride on both sides
Evil tongues
Mouths open too wide
Gehenna upon each
Swollen lip
Nasty words
Drip drip

Blood still flows
Policemen bleed
Orange and green
Unholy seed
I know your passion
I hate your creed
Loyalist or nationalist
Learn one good deed

To love love
Your fallen neighbour
Together closer
We can labour
To create
A holy nation
One day Ireland
Shall know jubilation

Night time prayers

Oh Lord hear my prayer
In this cold dark night
I'm too tired to kneel
Too tired to fight
But my heart is drawn
Out to thee
Oh hear my prayer
Come to me

Prayers ascend
For my friend
His heart broken
Come do mend
Prayers ascend
For the homeless
Physically and spiritually
And mentally Aloneness

Jesus Christ
Have mercy
Kyrie Eleison
Upon me
And all who are poor
Deep in spirit
Nothing in them
To ever merit

This is my prayer
Mother Mary
Pray for all
Who are weary
St Therese
Pray for all
St Benedict
Hear my call

Can't sleep

Can't sleep

Hypomanic
But don't weep
No need to panic
All is well
With my soul
Seeking Christ
My only goal

Waking up
A poem to write 

In the middle
Of the night
A lazy thought
Meditate
Prayer is painful
But it's a date

Pray more
Than anything
Pray without ceasing
Daily bring
Your heart
To the King
Pray twice
Yes do sing

Updated

Have we updated the faith
Like the latest iPhone
The best so far
While men do groan
And ache for
Holy sacred tradition
To dump technology
And go off fishing

Sure the latest songs
Must be the best
While ancient chant
Is not even a guest
One wonders
How the saints of old
Did so well
In the ancient cold

We've got it all
In need of nothing
Wealthy and blessed
Always laughing
Full of joy 

Tongues angelic
We worship self
Like we're some sort of relic

Lukewarm
Am I?
Kill me
To live not die
Hot or cold
You would rather
Have me shivering
Than to dither and dather

Going up
To receive
Some eat
And don't believe
This is His Body
This is His blood
Your in agony
Stuck in your mud

Love her

Love her as
Christ loved
The Church his bride
His beloved
Though she was empty
Nothing to give
He died for her
So she could live

She said no
Still he came
She rebelled
Herself defamed
Still he ruined
Himself for her
Tore apart
Will you now sir 

Love her as
A dying man
Give up all
If you can
And are no longer
In love with yourself
Come be ruined
For her health 

Cut it out

I pulled my eyes out today
Ripped them right out of my head
I got me some Holy wrath
To never again take another to bed
In my head, in my head
Carnal impure, dead as dead

I cut my hands off today
How they can so easily offend
I don't mind going to the Kingdom
Limbless with a Holy head
Holy head, holy head
Pure, beautiful holy Bed

Still I can type
So do not panic
I am not yet that
Holy manic
It's all symbolic
But it's a command
We must obey
To eternally stand

It's a narrow way
I know
It's bloody painful
But where else to go
Shall we
To be free
Here and now
Liberty

Bound in love

Bound together
Holy union
What man could separate
Our communion
What woman
Should catch my eye
Let it be
I'd rather die

Bound together
By Yahweh
His creation
Day by day
He changes us both
Into his Holy Agape
Day by beautiful
Day by day

Bound together
At the beginning
Though there is daily
Deadly sinning
God has commanded
Us to be One
Three in the marriage
Us and the Three in One

Bound together
To be bound in love
Serving each other
As purities dove
So deep
Goes are oneness
That a person comes forth
Us all to bless

Put away
Your contraception
It's a deadly
Evil deception
Put away your
Papers of Divorce
And let all marriages
Stay the course

Perhaps though God
Did not create it
Then no need
To debate it
Let the Church annul
What God did not dress
Then go get married 

And be blessed

Panting

In weakness I'll chant
In sin I'll pant
Holy liturgy
Holy liberty
Reverence
Common sense
Glorify
Christ lifted high

Running I'll flee
Towards thee
Your house
Holy Spouse
Falling Kneeling
Bowing Healing
Crucified Tongue
Holy Lung

In awe I'll stand
Not dare lift my hand
To touch a king
King of kings
Then all kneel
All to feel
Christ in us
Don't cause a fuss

The Latin Mass

I was there when they crucified our Lord

Holy awe, silent glory, represent

I was there at Calvary this even

Invited to come, into His open tent

This is true Worship and the children cried

Present they were there too, as Christ died

The Children did come though noisy they be

All were invited to gaze on that tree

I was there when they raised the Cup

The Cup Christ did drink to the full

He raised it up and I fell down

In silent awe at the servant Kings rule

Oh in tongues of Angels the choir sang

As the savior before my eyes did hang

Upon the cross in front of my eyes

The lover of lovers bows his head and dies

I was there when they held up the bread

Christ came in and presently changed

The Bread and me for this night I beheld

True Worship that can't be re-arranged

Oh Glorious Mass in Latin they read

They say this tongue is now ancient and dead

Yet it came alive in my spirit it fed

Though my mind understood not a word that was said

I was there with the Angels and Saints

The Living ones who are not asleep

Joining with this heavenly choir

Was I this tatty old broken hurt sheep

Come come restore restore

The ancient ways as they were before

Hear Christ knock on the door

Invite him in his glory to pour
