Condiments for Life


Common Strangers
Strange people
With strange looks
Giving strange advice
Reading strange books
Strange people
Seems they’re always in pairs
Dressing in strange clothes
Sporting strange hair
Strange people
Eating strange food
Giving off strange vibes
Being in strange moods
Strange people
Seems they’re everywhere you are
Strange at church, on strange jobs,
Driving strange cars
Strange people
Have strange ideas about the way things should be
With their strange spouses and strange friends
Like strange you and strange me

Introduced to God
I AM the Father of it all
I AM the Father of all the worlds, planets, stars, and galaxies
I AM the Father of all kindred and people, even you and me and children to be…born
I AM the Father of all heavens, oceans, and seas
I AM the Father of it all
I AM the Father of the past, present, and future, you see
I AM the Father of the unknown, for I know it well.

Po-etiquette
Indigestion is not a secret you keep well
You’re always reaching across another’s plate
Eating with the fork you picked up that just fell
Stuffing your mouth like it’s a shipping crate
There you are with both elbows on the table
No napkin in your lap
Your chair is wobbly and unstable
Washed your hands but didn’t remove your cap
Sound and rhythm of you sucking and picking your teeth
Unbuckling your belt is your sign that you’ve quit
Relief crosses our faces as you stand to your feet

No longer to be victims of your Po-etiquette
