wise men, seek Him

 

 

 

+

 

we move

amidst heaven and earth

hinds feet and high places

ethereal, untethered to terra

the Lovers...

we who know Him

are not always found where you'd expect

just as He was not found where expected

not under some steeple, but in a stable,

in loathsome obscurity

among forbidden things...

we speak, as He did,

not always from pulpits (vulgar barrier between Beloveds)

but at lakesides, firesides, tablesides.....

if you would find the extraordinary

peer into the ordinary...

You who seek Him

seek Him also where you would not;

seek Him in the places that scandalize your faith

and free you from dead dogma

look up from your pew

and see Him also

en plein air...

let not your walk with Him

be trudging and begrudging

but Dancing, Flying

Know the One who would be known

not as a prop in your precarious presbytery,

 

but as the One who's power is purveyed

in nothing your house of cards can hold.
