3-24-2017

In like a lamb
That German monk that lived so long ago: Eckhart
He said, more or less: if the only prayer you say in  
Answer is "Thank You," it would be enough. Apart
Now from those who would hear me, still when 
Kindness comes out of nowhere, i know
Years of misunderstanding are not enough to 
Overturn what the act of that dying blow 
Unleashed to sin, once and for all. We grew 
So much in that moment of his election 
One life for God alone to show us how to live. 
Many are confused by our daily, slo-mo crucifixion
Uniting us with him. Each thank you, we give--
Chosen not forced-- each step pounds like hammers:
Hear the roar subside as the journey begins: soft as lamb's ears.
