Sometimes in the midst
of an overly busy
day, peace thankfully descends.
~
And sometimes that peace
is suddenly shattered by
staccato shooting reports.

Rage against the Indifferent Omnipotent
When we’ve prepared for
hurricanes that don’t hit, why
is there some disappointment?
~
Do we, secretly,
long to shout defiant rage
into some almighty’s face?
Beholding the Shadows
What makes it so hard
to look beneath the hard ground
of anger and see the fear?
~
For many, anger
is a well worn shoe, but fear
too terrifying to behold.
Inhale, Exhale, Repeat
When under stress what
helps us remember to take
a breath, much less count to ten?
~
Breathing is easy!
One must inhale to bellow.
The counting is the hard part.

Transubstantiation
How do we begin
to transform the grapes of wrath
into communion wine?
~
Strip first, the bitter
skin of anger and vengeance,
then ferment the heart and soul.
