Squirrel!

Is meditation to close my mind
Shut it down, let it open wide
Focus it or broaden it
Clean or cluttered inside
Oh wait.
Stop this train of thought
I was supposed to meditate
My derailing has been caught

Unreflection

Unwhole and unwell is the man who
Sticks his finger in a socket to
Get shocked and then again
Does it until the end

Unsound and unwise is the mind which
Explains this as a natural twitch
Thereby good, trusted, and must
Be encouraged until we are dust

And these un-voices in my
Heads invariably lie
Their dark barks
From the original black marks
In front of Him, fade and die

Who is God?

Who is God? Who is like Him?
Boundless and undivided
Who is Truth? Who is Beauty?
Over what has He not presided?
And what am I? Just a mangy dog
Not fit to eat the food of a hog

Who is God? This King of Heaven?
With majesty beyond my gaze
Who is Love? Who is Peace?
Who pulled me from my sinful daze?
And what am I? Just a lowly slave
Whose dust will sprinkle another's grave

And yet, amazing all who hear, He dies
To grant a choice for me to rise
A thread in His tapestry
A glimmer in His majesty


God bless,

Time

That relentless beat, indomitable act
Crushing force, and imperative pact
The fearless foe that holds us fast
That blessed gift that has us vexed
The movement of one moment to the next
Joy lasts but a moment, but it does last



God bless,
