For Ernyn

All these feelings

I can’t name

All this discontent

Too many folks

I could blame

But my back’s still bent

Far too much force

In this wrecking ball

How I long to stand

But I just fall

Oh, how I’m glad

To proclaim

Grace is not nameless

How love is not

Contingent

Upon performance

How God’s embrace

Has a face

Forever pointing

Toward

Us.

Eternity Now

_______________

Heaven,

Your body

Holds no tears.

Earth,

This is

Our reality,

Now.

Eternity

Reaches

Down

With hot coals,

Touches

The tip

Of the tongue

Then

Angels carry

Away

The ashes.

Life

Never

Ends.

As it is

In

Heaven

So shall it be

On earth.
