Here is a poem that God gave me on 10-24-95.
                                                        I AM

                     "I am", God said.
                      As He moved with a measured trod.
                      through time; yet He gave a nod.
                      to "Us" created "He them",out of the sod.

                      "Now.I Am",said Jesus softly.
                       Shoving evil backwards,quickly.
                       On "Us" shedding His blood thickly.
                       Covering our inability to be God.

                        Hence,I am a son of God.
                        Moving through a portion of time,
                        Being a part of the whole.
                        The everlasting Soul of God!

Bro. Bunch, this is a *VERY* awsome and incredible poem.  It tells the
truth in a form almost as compact as haiku, with a visual appeal of
Carl Sandburg, and the rythmic savor of Gerard Manley Hopkins, who,
incidently, was a very dedicated Christian himself.  Thank you very
much for this jewel!  

You should really copyright it, as I would not be suprised to see it
published further than just Higher-Fire.  Of course, under the Berne
Convention it is implicitly copyrighted anyway, but for $20 you can
actually register it with the Library Of Congress, and if you do that
within 90 days of first publication (which I assume is today), then
you are even covered for recovery of legal fees.
