jesus

jesus the man was born in nazareth

at a certain age he became christed
his life was changed

god was ever present to him

not totally in the beginning
but gradually
things began to change

his perspective on things changed
he became aware he was a divine being

it took over him and he became
christed

GOD

i used to think that god was a person like me

that that was the connection

that person was the bridge

but now i don't think that any more
not so sure
might be-
but not so sure.

i thought we shared something in common
personhood
but god is a different species altogether
undefinable
unknowable
unseeable
unfathomable

what is god
god is his own being
his own species
unlike any other

he had nothing to do one day

so the father who is creator said
let's make love - let's make human -
let's make man

and so he did

and thus the dance began

the Father smiled and
was quite pleased with his creation

he nodded to the Word
and the Word smiled back



thus Spirit was born

and the children sang

so





DISCIPLE

I CAME
I FOLLOWED
I TOILED
I PRAYED
I SINNED

FORGIVENESS

WHY WASTE TIME ON GUILT
THE INNOCENT ONE
FORGAVE ALL.

GET UP
GET UP

TOIL ON
FORGE ON
ONE FOOT DOWN
ONE FOOT DOWN

DOWN DOWN DOWN
UP UP UP

GET UP
MARCH ON
THE BATTLE IS NOT OVER
UNTIL U HAVE WON THE PRIZE

PRESENCE.












PRESENCE

O' Presence

i feel u
smell u
taste u

yearn for u
hunger for u
long for u

there are twists and turns
curves and loops

i follow
sweating
sometimes out of breath
breathing breathing breathing

smelling u
almost tasting u
feeling u
loving u.

A M E N
a

the language of silence

to hear what can't be heard
to see what can't be seen
to know what can't be known

o' silence take me there
your breath is quick
like the breeze on a leaf
the quiver of a chill

o' silence take me there
let me know your beat
let me see your beauty
and let me share your love

A M E N

i am trying to figure out

i think the silence is going to take
me on another journey

one of which i don't know about
it's not planned
that's what so unusual about it

i do know it involves the silence

the quietness between the words
the stillness between the thoughts
it speaks to me i know not what
but the groundness seeps into my bones
and changes life around me
