Close all open things, Lord.

Open all closed things.

All those who have long received, let them give.

All those who have long given, let them receive.

All those too long apart, let them come together.

All those too long together, sunder them.

Let the wise be fools for once, Lord,

And let the fools speak their minds.

Affirm the long-denied, Lord.

Fulfill the unfulfilled.

I wait for you

ready to leap at you

from every corner

at every turn

gathered to spring at you

from the shadow

of every tree

this is an ambush

but I am not the assassin

I wait, not with a knife,

but love, heavy, dripping in my hands.
