Report Article
Wake
Was it past alarms
that woke you to this fast-break morning report?
Will you find no faith in rising,
favor in doing?
Experience the sadness of strong fatigue
from modest works of penitent sharing?
Upon the nightfall,
upon a quest,
upon a guess,
retouch your dreams in the dwindling
match of this childhood immolation?
In Between
Far vineyard
whose blossoms fall
forever fruitless … faithless –
cast bearing
on future Christian harvest …
of failed Messianic wine.
Going Back (Prophecy Return)
Truly a God of the Northland,
having neither a dawn toward which we might describe a beginning
nor a twilight that we may foreclose an end.
A tundra abound with frozen bells,
in ringing crush of pleasant flower hearts.
Crazy compass!
Distances more vast.
These mountains are near, at guess.
Life seeking light; but pity the traveler lost …
and divided …
in a territory without assemblage or structured binding grace.
Next it soothes me to paint a cold God …
and Jesus the keeper of his icehouse
where frigid, albeit forgotten, souls lay entombed.
At last I am of his nature.
Games
And it is no more simple,
and it is no more sane,
myself recoiling toward the grave.
Like kids with blindfolds - - - playing
‘pin the heart upon the human’.
Children should be seen and not heard;
remember this as well.
Acceptance
Upon receiving this invitation,
it does not matter I must find time to go
and break appointments long awaited.
It does not matter I must seek willing transportation,
stations of support, and places along the way.
It does not matter I must purchase new clothes
appropriate for the greeting of royal visitors.
It does not matter I have special presents to carry
scarcely fitting the pleasures given;
it only matters I have prepared my heart a rest-stop
for this God visitation to me.
Dr. Walter Boswell
