Suddenly
Suddenly simply moving
delightful presence belonging
only to him the vast vagueness
the subtle longing desired
between only two the shedding
of doubt removing a senseless
pout I catered to thee the
memorable lessons tinged
with warm blood bounded
by the nails pierced skin
bronzed feet dangling joined
in the garden wooden splinters
surrounded his head I ache filled
with wonder knowing you died
for me leaving the warmth
of your mother’s bussom to
enter into your fathers house
why have ye been forsaken
when Carabus snickers with
a forward glance shall we really
be forgiven if this cause pain
sigh for the giving pray for
the souls of the silent beings
bestowed so well beneath the
levites levy hindering peace
in Israel as the ground shake
the river swell’s rises greeting
the star of daveed baptizing
the needy heed the time is near
the time is now as mankind
bleed out on hot sand the baby
deer’s legs are broken walking
backwards in the forest the calling
the offering of nigh awakened so
soon after the tides roll in calm
waters warm tears began to pour
out flowing down stream he will
not leave me his chosen few
one baptism one forgiveness
one God the mountains shattered
tumbles filling the ocean
leading a pathway all over
the world back to Jerusalem
