I was handed A bitter cup (not intentionally innocently not consciously) I drink it now All of it Down to the dregs (may I not choke on the little gritty bits) A bitter cup To drink Oh merciful Father May I drink All of it Down to the dregs Not choking on the little bits May my thirst be quenched rather with your sweetness and life Life Life Life

I Can (thanks Dr. Seuss:)
I can worship in a house I can worship like a mouse I can worship with a friend I can worship without end I can worship with my voice I can worship without joists I can worship here and there I can worship anywhere I can worship because I am free I don’t have no chains on me
You Moved
You moved From grace to judgement From love to hate From peace to politics You moved (out from under my feet) And I don’t have your address Anymore
Your stillness
Your stillness stills me Your arm around me Tangible This morning In Grass Park You Lead me To quiet places And spaces in my heart Like Summer spent from crying I Rest In You
Conundrum
When My sanctuary wrecks Your sanctuary And Your sanctuary Wrecks my sanctuary What to do What to do What to do
