“What I say to you in the darkness, speak in the light;
what you hear whispered, proclaim on the housetops.”
(Matthew 10:27)
Not much between
despair and ecstasy.*
This floating
nothingness
sometimes empty
dark and cold –
metallic;
sometimes full
bright and warm –
cashmere.
No matter.
You, Lord, know
all and your Word
whispers, kisses
in darkness –
freeing for self-giving.
Your intimates
proclaim:
God is Love!
