Kill one man
and you go
to the gallows
Kill one hundred
and you’re lauded
a hero
Intention like rain
falls on
mountain and plain
The one
flowing downward
—the other to drain
(Dreamsleep: November, 2023)
The Key
Putting God
into human terms
that we can understand
Obverts the beauty
concepts like the Trinity
command
Within our souls
within our hearts
the key to something more
Crossing over
on Heaven’s light bridge
—Beatific pure
