SUNDAY PRAYER, cxciv
time & time again,
a harmless weapon is a shoe that you
reload until its weathered soul's
eroded step by step.
what a mess you made.
what an egg you laid.
what if you had never moved
instead of weaving through the maze
i am i am
time & time again
i am resoled by the rising sun
forgiven when the morning comes
of every mess i've ever made
of debts i paid only in part
a harmless weapon is a heart
it is the ringing when there are no bells
the raining when there are no wells
i am i am
when you're a birthday,
deep with the dayshine
from dusk to moonbreak,
the dust of keepsakes
time & time again, i am i am
