What could have caused your grip to weaken
that allowed creation to be?
How could a lover fall to his death
from the arms of infinite
...
Mother-God,
Set me within the safe defences of Thy pity:
In ignorance and folly I have wasted all my days,
My soul is base:
...
We’re sorry!
We have no manners!
But ...
We’re your children and you’re our Mom!
...
If Only you would
Give me refuge O Lord
To stay at your feet
In a line of saints.
...
Take, Lord, unto Thyself
My sense of self; and let it vanish utterly.
Take, Lord, my life,
Live Thou my life through me.
...
I speak,
Yet am I silent:
I am dead,
Yet do I live:
...
When thus I lose myself in Thee, my God,
Then do I see, and know,
That all Thy universe
...
Where does one begin with you?
O Lord, you have no opening line
It's so hard to get you started.
...
Consider me yours;
for I worship You, Lord.
In the company of saints,
my spirit soared.
...
To arrange words
In some order
Is not the same thing
As the inner poise
That's poetry.
