NOW

about time

Day 5

Almost Alive Now

stretched out limbs

tender

with rigor

and contempt

down from crosses

flayed limb

to bloody limb

done our best

heard us say

defeated

slain

gone

and yet

here we stand

sustained

supple

inside out

lived

undeniable

unforgettable

seeking

our haunt

our misery

our sin

give

instead

our gratitude

our strength

our wisdom

our pearls

maybe before swine

lest we judge

trample them

all of them

our

partly gift

partly torment

partly sustenance

partly indigestible

or

pick it’s fruit

make a pie

or a sauce

or eat them raw

or

let them fall

let them rot

beneath our feet

we are not our savior

we are not our demon

we are not our way home

we are not ours

everything

we have to offer

is right here

pick it

or

pluck it

or

pass it by

we trust

the seeds

will find

their

way

from

here.
