SUNDAY PRAYER, cclxiii
time & time again
we get so close to giving up
under the dueling rain the empty cups
each will fill so slowly
and so deep into our doubt go we
cupping in our shaking hands
all the seeds we hope to plant
into the earth before we die
time & time again go i
you are a birthday
deep with the dayshine
from dusk to moonbreak
the dust of keepsakes
time & time again, i am i am
