Stimulus Plan
Sin ravaged world free falling into emptiness and doom
Tentacled false cliffs of wealth on time's bluff:
Images of illusion, shrivelled leaf after morning's bloom
Messiah annexed from dream and devotion,
Ultimate giver of life and love, urging us through the fall
Latent in our secular aspiration, to reach beyond
Upward falling on bended knees, the templed trumpet call
Sovereign Master, I walk on water, as you bid.
Pilate's response was to wash his bloody hands, poor he
Leached of love so freely given, cannot prevent
Atonement for my way to heaven ... I have tasted glory
Nature and Word transforming desires in me.
