Not Your Light

Matthew 2:1-12

Monday, January 3, 2011

Watch out, Sir,
for you are inquiring after a star not your own.
It cannot show you a new commodity
to enhance your portfolio,
nor bless the call giving the order
that would create value from victims.

It was once thought stars were like coal-burning furnaces
until they figured there could not be enough mines
to stoke such radiance:
their reach is off the grid.

An Eye for an I

Epiphany 2 A

Isaiah 49:1-7

Monday, January 10, 2011

It sounds like
the English pronoun
first person nominative singular
and organ of vision
are the same -

in Isaiah
the prophet of God
and vision
and person
I am
are - yes - the same.

I am caught in earshot
to speak the salvation of the earth,
snared by words I did not write
to set my life
for the salvation of the earth
I do not make.

So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. 
                                 - I Corinthians 3:1-7 (NRSV)
