Dahveed the mighty.
Dahveed the strong.
Dahveed of Israel, a shepherd's son.
Dahveed is a born leader.
I was born a believer,
And not a hater.
Dahveed is there to save Israel and Judah
All the while getting more moolah.

Reading Journal Week 35 - Heart of a Poet
To tell someone
That you are less
Takes a lot of courage.
Now you know what Dahveed felt
When he made amends with Shaul.
Shaul must have been mortified and grateful,
That Dahveed was so close
Close enough to cut off the edge of the garment
Yet Dahveed didn't kill him.
That took courage from Dahveed,
And (I imagine) a lot of self control.

Why do you want to attack Dahveed, Shaul?
Dahveed did nothing to you.
He treated you like a father.
Then why do you still go after him?
Your reasons are unclear.
Was it that servant that turned you to the dark side.
If not, then why?
Dahveed did nothing to you.
You think he's trying to steal your crown,
But he doesn't want it.
He'll be given the crown whether he likes it or not.
Even Jonathan agrees with Dahveed.
Why attack Dahveed?
Reading Journal Week 33 - Heart of a Poet
Dahveed. Oh, Dahveed.
How many woman have you married?
How many are coming,
Coming for you?
First was Sahara Michal,
Then Ahinoam,
And finally Gebirah Abigail of Carmel.
More are sure to come.
I am positive.
If only you knew,
How many your son would have.
Even you would feel appalled.

Father Christmas
It must have been a while,
For father Christmas was in denial.
Being put away for so long.
He had to have been strong,
To come back again,
And give gifts to men.

Aslan and Jesus
Who is this mysterious Aslan?
This great Lion of old.
Why does he sound like our Jesus,
Who will give riches untold.
Aslan must be the Narnia equivalent
Of God's son, Jesus.

Not Weird
The Wardrobe is open.
I'm gonna walk in.
It goes on an on.
Suddenly I'm in a forest.
This isn't weird at all.
Nope, always happens.
Not weird...
At all.
