Great Commission

Three years
then go

No decades
parked in pews

No lifetime
listening to middlemen

Just go and live a life
transformed by love

Leave words and creeds behind and be
that grace you claim you long to see

If mercy
has a face

it is your face
If justice sees hurt

it is your eyes that weep
If love has hands and feet

your hands are those pierced by care
your feet those lovely on the mountainside

In your life and breath alone
can dead gods live

or carcasses
unveil a honeyed sweet

truth oozing from the comb
in error's meat
