The politics of rebirth
Are not for the faint-hearted.
They are for those who
Embrace the fragments
See the cracks as where
The light leaks in.
And that loving a neighbour
Is loving the Christ.
So vast and foolish is the Wisdom of God…..
Those sacred dreams of humanity,
Already known.
Scattered about such that we might
Upturn rocks
Tear out roots
Stumble across pearls
And, wild with wonder,
Sell everything to keep them.
