Attraction/reaction
Watching the stage; so many voices..
I open a page...
As I live, I hear him say -
Watchman shout! I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked.
What's that all about?
Not a prophet; not a slave; not one that's risen from the grave: haven't been to heaven, not much on which to swoon:
Maybe we have a covenant?
That thing with the cresent moon
Don't have a bob each way;
Believe in you; and all you say.
Is there another way?
I don't know; I must confess: I love then all, but it's a mess..
As the priest, so the people.
What did he say?
Flee to the mountains (could be interpreted as getting away?):
Conflicted/ constricted
Still, do as I say: I will come.
Even though I tarry it's for mercy, and for grace...
But where are my feet; my hands; my face?
My Spirit of splendour, now disgraced.
I looked, and found not one:
Happened once/happened twice:
I had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill: I send my son, to collect some fruit, and him they try to kill.
Still: Rise again, from your shame: the remnant; unknown...
Dry bones are calling
Come now
Lead us home.

Valiantstar, this really moved me. There is a deep sense of spiritual wrestling throughout the poem...questions, doubts, hopes, and convictions all sharing the same space. It feels honest precisely because it does not pretend the journey is simple. Powerful work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
