(78) May 12, 2010: Something Slow

SOMETHING SLOW

Dear God, Your majesty, Your highness stands
   Much higher than

   The orders of our ego-smitten world
      In self so curled
   That not unless You cut us free, unwrap
      Our arms that strap
   Our selves within ourselves all tethered sick
      Of living quick...

We long for something slow and pure and true
   Like loving You.
