1 John 3:7-10
Posted By Lancelot Schaubert on Jul 11, 2017 |
Little kids, be artless, be not naive
Listen not to the scoffer’s deceiving
tongue. Only right-doers are right,
For he who is righteous never does wrong
See only wrong-doers are wrong
For he known as devil can’t sing our new song
From the get-go he sinned, and ever will sin
For this God’s Son was unmasked in God’s Play
Destroying the works of the devilish one.
Those begotten of God never “will sin”
For a seed of the Son planted within
Roots out sin’s abilities, for he’s of God
And this is how children of God are unveiled
For this is how devilish children unclothe.

Lancelot Schaubert has sold his written work to markets like The New Haven Review, McSweeney’s, The Poet’s Market, Writer’s Digest (magazine and books), Poker Pro, Encounter, The Misty Review, Carnival, Brink, and many other similar markets. He reinvented the photonovel through Cold Brewed and was commissioned by the Missouri Tourism Board to create a second photonovel — The Joplin Undercurrent — that both fictionalizes and enchants the history and culture of Joplin, Missouri. His work terraforms new worlds, tears the veil between the natural and supernatural, and jests with the paradoxes of classical metaphysics. When he’s not writing (or tinkering with cinema-ish narrative), he’s dabbling in dozens of different books, listening to people tell their life stories, camping, fishing, exploring unfamiliar territory (there’s a lot in New York), tinkering with new languages (Spanish, currently), exploring random disciplines like chemical engineering, as well as messing around with improv comedy (at UCB) and leisure de main and music. PLEASE SEND SOUP — he loves soup. Yes, even if it’s summer. Find him in Brooklyn, New York with his wife, Tara, and their attack spaniel, Echo.
