Lord, hallowed be your name. Merciful / Lord
of reconciliation, hear my / poem as prayer; these broken
pleas in lines,
Lord; /
metronomic musings,
unmusical, / heavy with fear. Lord, hear not my
numb speech /
but the token−
the meaning. Take
away / the hindrance of self−
the sense of− and leave / with me a greater sense
of your presence; / Your spirit within revealing signs,
sight / restored
and light. Within this rare shining, /
shine through
the gift of losing self to You. / This vital understanding
awakened / only in sheets of grace poured out and down /
and seen in strips of visibility, / so release me of all pride,
generate / humility and create connection /
so I might dine with you in communion /
drink from goblet
of signification /
my sins forgiven
by sipping tipped back / offering and again in harmony / I pray Thy kingdom
come, Thy will be done…. /
Amen.
