“What do you think of
when you hear this song?”

acceptable answers:

dancing around
   in a bliss
      shaded by burden,

Christmas,

   the rapid way
      a child
         breathlessly
            tells a story,
etc.

Pleased as Punch

Just once,
before I die,
I’d like to hear a choir
sing “Hark, the herald
angels sing,” and change
the exclusionary language.

“Pleased as man with man to dwell”
(or “man with us,” as some sing it)
could reasonably be
“Pleased as punch with us to dwell.”

I think of benefit to many
is to read
in order to diminish
that suffocating panic to do
or not;

How much do I owe?
Am I saved, am I
chosen, am I saved?

By losing yourself in community,
you will find your
true self
not
paper-mached by bureaucracies
& advertisements that will always leave
the false I’s seeking desperate
hows & never fulfilling

the search[es] for why.
