    prologue for a new work

    A Scattered Feast

    He leads me each day,
    (Provider God)
    He created me needy,
    and messy.

    I see
    beauty and brokenness
    longing and acceptance,
    hope and dread,
    mourning and dancing
    weeping and laughter
    death and resurrection,
    blooming and wilting,
    wonder and monotony,
    smiling and wincing,
    emptiness and abundance,
    darkness and illumination,
    saying and silence,
    complexity and simplicity,
    embracing and boxing
    torment and ecstasy
    wandering and epiphany
    sudden moment and long advent
    hoping and groping
    and everything in between.
    day by day-

    This is the table He prepares before me, temporary, ephemeral and moveable though it may be.

    The meal is sure.
    The menu is unknown.

    I am a dependent of God
    and life is a scattered feast.
