Temporarily Unplugged

Temporarily Unplugged

Oh! Woeful sadness

When love surrounds me

And I can’t feel it,

For the heaviness of heart.

I grieve the loss of innocence

That shoots through my country,

With this encounter,

With vincibility.

We are powerless over evil and

Our lives have become unmanageable,

But powerlessness is not helplessness.

Powerlessness is being

Temporarily unplugged from our Higher Power.

Prayer, each tiny spirit

Sparking another to pray

To move our hearts from

Desire to out-slime the essence.

Of evil in the slimiest,

To conversion,

To out-love the

Host of loveness

In the best of us.

Ah! That is salvation.

That is freedom.

That is heartease.

That is acceptance

Of the Godliness of all humanity.

That is retribution, not

Retaliation,

For which, oh Holy One

We pray.
