Looking about ourselves
right now
we dare not believe
what God himself
wants us
dares us
begs us
to believe
which is that he is there.
And there.
And there.
And there.
And here.
Right now
always.
“It cannot be!” we say to ourselves
It cannot be.
We, after all, know better.
We, after all, know the ways
of this unforgiving world.
