Sabbath Morning Harvest
Who am I today?
as I rise out to play
at being again
this ego I entertained yesterday
with passion plays
creation stories
epic one-day opera
folding into Northern Autumn yet again unfolding.
Who would I choose to harvest
yet again this day?
one...

Awesome Grace
I wonder what it means
we are a multicultural species
still capable of waging war,
employing ballistic terrorists,
investing in capitalism's ruthless game
of surgical monopoly
to become patriarchs of bloodied mountains,
This feels related,
perhaps co-arising,
with inability to distinguish
an ecology of natural...

Light and Dark Markets
The primary political and economic metaphor for human life on Earth,
at least here in these disuniting States,
is "market,"
with a consumer and a producer face;
robust, healthy, cooperatively self-regenerative markets
and depressed, pathologically self-degenerative disaster markets,
ripe for fear...

Of Wars and Peace Everywhere
OF WARS AND PEACE EVERYWHERE
Around the world—evil raging wars continue to be steadfastly fought
In the name of lasting peace;
The military industrial complexes have found the puppets they’ve sought,
Both in the ruling West and East;
Mislead cannon...

Speed of Enlightenment
Routine rituals of everyday sacred Sabbaths,
beginning in hibernating Advent
of dawn's diurnal enlightenment Season,
becoming diastatic climax rhythms of interdependence
through Summer's noonday fertile heat,
drawing to autumnal dusk decomposing
preparation for further harvest extending families
of co-empathic nutritional digestion,
composting as...

Of Wars and Peace Everywhere
Around the world—evil, raging wars continue to be steadfastly
Fought in the name
Of lasting peace;
The military industrial complexes have found the puppets
They’ve sought
In the ruling
West and East;
Mislead cannon fodders on each side are...

Sundays Without Should
Remember the Sabbath
to keep it holy
free of Shoulds.
A should-free cathedral
of intimate athleticism
romantic
exotic
ecstatic
euphoric
erotic
Exhausts this sabbath light
at long last
widely dawning deeply stronger
and resiliently handsome
dark as night
In virtuously enlightening response
to Saturnight's weekly exorcism
annihilating
exhausting
expiring
Yet another weekday week
weak slow-groan...

Candle Box
Candle Box
Home sweet home

I'll arm the poor with words
You've left me nothing...

Oceanic Sabbath
We have no sabbath sense
deep enough
wet enough
searching baptismally enough
for Earth's oceanic atmosphere.
Sabbath is for monotheistic cities
and castled lands
we anthro-supremacist share
to weekday busyness hold them
six weakly orthodox dry days per week
On lands we sell...

The Tomb Was Empty
When Joseph had taken Jesus' body,
To his own new tomb where it was laid.
He sealed the door of the sepulchre,
By a great chiseled stone it was stayed.
Then there was Mary and the other,
Sitting over against...

The Importance of God's Day - Ezekiel 20: 12
God has since creation declared
that a sabbath day is for our good
for as He rested a day after creation
so by His example, we also should
As God did His work in six days
then showed to take...

A Taste of Heaven
Dust, sweep and mop
Run to three or four shops
Polish silver 'til it shines
Did we forget to buy wine
Countdown to Sabbath's begun
So many chores to be done
Ready or not, it's...

Remember, Sister
Remember
The voice that woke you up in the morning
Disremember
The arguments that altered into mourning
Consider
The affectionate memories that we cherish the most
Don’t consider
The horrifying hours that we have not spent with...
