Fill us, oh Lord

with the spirit of the whale
that moves in the deep
silence, whose weight is
buoyed somehow, for I, for we

we are too heavy now.
This is not poetry, it is
statement. It is confession.
It is prayer.

Lest your sea of Love
lift us, we are rooted,
we are mountains
stuck firm in despair.
