when the fear

3 July 2009 at 3:41am

comes to my house through
the backdoor of my mind
or the front door of his
dereliction, what will
God's will be
then?

We do not know the hinder bits
of God's foreknowledge of locks,
but I trust the ones on the front door
and backdoor of the home holding mine
will not rattle at all, but keep out the deranged

neglect of soul and grooming and
fragrance and
spice.

spice that might grace more
than a grave awareness
fears breach, r each,
preach.
