Real Faith

      is

knowing

in our deep
bones

through
   empty
       space

we are forever

       free
falling....

our hearts quiver 

like drops of precious mercury

as we,

     no longer hidden,

     descend

time and again,

into intimacy’s shifting

sands and the realm

of creation’s 10,000 things,

where still, supple

arms of uncertainty,

those seeds of mystery

that confound and delight,
befuddle and inspire,

river forth from

each spacious

and strange,

befriending moment.
