SACRIFICE
they say Christ squandered himself
completely, a living miracle
of creative surrender,
heart cracked so wide open in love
like a rabbit thunked and crushed
by a marauding unfeeling 10
wheeler
outside a juke box rest stop
somewhere in Nevada
chaotic airborne sagebrush
and thick toxic dust storms
clogging our lungs
our vision
can’t block our amazed
uplooking wounded faces
from gaping beseechingly
everywhere for him
and how he makes
EVERYTHING
sacred.
