One Day

Wrote while seeing Handel's Messiah, but it suits today, too.

One Day

Because there really was a time
when God was dead,
and heaven broke,
and evil had forever won,
the Earth committed to the devil’s rule,
and all that had been made, was made to decay.
But nothing carries on
for long that way:
I gather that it lasted
only one full day.

untitled, but addressed to God

You, you are like hurricane eye

(and everything outside it)

You, you are like stars in the day

see me even when you’re invisible



You, you are like radio signal

I tune in and you are there

You, you are like eternal tide

I sit long enough I find you
