Letting My Hair Down [27 Christ-Centered Couplets]
I hate poetry. It’s blue-collar work. Like a bricklayer, poets grind out an existence one word at a time.
Words become sentences, sentences become stanzas, stanzas become poems…over a period of days. Weeks. Even months.
One fourteen-line sonnet can demand fourteen hours to craft. And then you are not even sure it’s any good.
The process is long, brutal and nasty.
That’s why I like the couplet. You’re only dealing with two lines of five to six words each. Unless you’re writing thirty-nine couplets…like I did with the Old Testament last week.
Or twenty-seven couplets…like I did this week.
I paint a painful picture. Tongue-in-cheek, of course, because I enjoy the final product with a smug self-satisfaction.
So, I hope you experience the same kind of satisfaction after reading these couplets…without the work, of course. Let me know what you think. And have a great Friday.
Matthew
The meek revolutionist surpassed Moses—
Unheard, he redeemed the broken masses.
Mark
Soon I must be isolated, sifted—
Follow me, to death, that none would be wasted.
Luke
God mingled with women, children, heathen
Through Christ-man, who sought the lost with passion.
