September 5, 2020February 14, 2021 ElRoyPoet

The Addiction Trap

April 13, 2020May 12, 2023 ElRoyPoet

This message is so powerful! We’re set free from addictions when we don’t put our trust in the flesh (our strength); only when we recognize that we’re weak (no willpower), will we be able to overcome. You might have read … Continue reading The Addiction Trap

Indebted

December 10, 2019August 25, 2023 ElRoyPoet

Garbage In, Garbage Out

July 8, 2019August 20, 2025 ElRoyPoet

I’ve trashed my home,I confess, I’m a hoarder,Full of dusty memories,I’m not a good boarder. I’ve trashed my body,By drinking, until drunk,By taking bad drugs,And eating food junk. I’ve trashed my life,And broken a nice family,And hurt the kind spouse—Who … Continue reading Garbage In, Garbage Out

Stay In Your Lane

February 20, 2019January 23, 2023 ElRoyPoet

I’m making a hypothesis, That shooting stars lack gravity, And as a consequence, Are pulled into the nearest black hole. And if by chance, Another heavenly body Comes into its line of sight, It crashes and burns on its surface. … Continue reading Stay In Your Lane
