News Is Good

Description

News Is Good

Out of one comes all species, the galaxies.

He puts them out in the billion varieties.

He sets within us a route to find Him out.

Let Him touch you. Don’t try to hold Him. Oh!

We tend to hang on tightly to the known to the tried,

Go by the rote—the rut we make runs wide,

Runs deep: the glimpse I’ve embraced is mine to keep.

The glimpse I’ve embraced is mine to keep.

is mine to keep

News is good –the page is old.

Talk is gold but your words are wood.

Sing your song – with words well worn.

Pump the plain facts up with syntax.

Dress up the naked truth in a 3-piece suit.

News is good –the page is old.

Talk is gold but your words are wood.

Sing your song – with words well worn.

Load the light facts down with syntax.

Dress up the naked truth in a 3-piece suit.

We’re all out taking pictures or making graphs,

If not actually, mentally we scratch our maps;

Recording each according to 1st person view.

Our world, thus captured, is trapped most premature.

We fuel what we know in our souls

With the coal of what we call “good” in the world.

We’re in a state like inner stasis as we run in our places.

News is good –the page is old.

Talk is gold but your words are wood.

Sing your song – with words well worn.

Load the light facts down with syntax.

Dress up the naked truth in a 3-piece suit.
