i find Myself in Fragments

slowly picking up the scattered

pieces

pocketing those i like

but don’t quite fit yet

waiting for a way to work them in

shaping myself in the image

of the only God i know.

Love.

Finally | i am new now

no longer vessel

nor altar | nor temple

i am energy | and flow | and peace

i am holy by nature | not design

i was god | before man

i was light | before flesh

i am | and ever will be |

and always was

Genesis | i am not my body

i live without

lighting small fires

extinguishing hungry flames

I cannot look back

deny the salt of my tears

I am a pillar | of light

that no man can grasp
