Teaching in 2020
              Second grade was hard enough
                The seconds turn into hours
                Screens turn to staff as
                Students turn their screens on and off
                Teaching students slipping out of their chairs at home
                Teaches us what we thought we already learned
                Too raw is the view into the houses of inner-city youth
                Exposed to their reality;                my past too.
                When the day is over, we rub our burning eyes
                We say it is easy when we are pioneers
                Fighting our exhaustion and creeping mental instability
                Has us fighting our love for our career.

SPOKEN WORD. TURN THAT SOUND ON. (FULL POEM BELOW.) God is Science is God // @stephanieawmartin Time days on end; moments, smearing across space in dimensional abstract mathematics. Some argue Religion is the Answer to mystery unknown, while others simply Science. I am touched, but never touching; a universe in a single person standing on the rock of this multiverse. God is in these sequences if you believe the doctrine written by three sisters. #stephanieawmartin #poetess #iowacity #emergingwriter #emergingpoet #writepublishing #untwineme #untwinemeusa #herheartsreach #herheartpoetry #artlixirspoken #dtosspoken #standbyyourword #writer #writersofig #poetsofig #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity #spokenword #spilledink I stand in #solidarity with my brothers and sisters with #mentalillness. #endthestigma #letstalkaboutmentalhealth (at Iowa City, Iowa)

The prosperity gospel has exploded in popularity among many Christians Perhaps more fittingly known as the gospel of success where God rewards faith with health and wealth. If you open the Bible and read in context you'll quickly realize that this is FAR from the gospel. Christians aren't to believe in God as a genie to carry out whatever he or she desires but we draw closer to God to understand what He desires for us. The Scripture clearly lays out: For the LOVE of money, (not money, but the love of money) is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. (1 Timonthy 6:10) It's evident to see how this gospel prosperity contradicts this passage here. And this is only one passage out of many. The Prosperity Gospel seems to be birthed from what is mentioned above when Paul declares: I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. This passage gets twisted in so many different ways but when placed in the correct context, it's difficult to make it fit the Prosperity Gospel at all. #poetry #poets #spokenword #Christian #Christianwoman #Christianpoet #ChristianInspiration #art #poetsofinstragram #emergingpoet #wordofgod #misconception #spilledpoetry #poetrycommunity #christianity

on instagram as: grumpygorman
you dropped chewed-gum brick from  helium hand,
easing throb of cold compression hold.
i glared,
toothpick-pried eyes scared,
while you washed over-
blurring with wistful streaks in
dusk’s violet cheeks.

sorrow

sorrow scaled these endless trees
to shed itself of me.
sorrow has now grown so small,
so close to flying free.
