“..I am the LORD who exercises lovingkindness, justice and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things…”

“…Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom…”

“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God..”

..to make his ways our ways..
to become godlike. Do Lord.
to become love. justice and mercy.
no bombs over bagmen
i believe
like a twig in wet waters
like a sim city seamstress
that somehow, with every unprovoked act of love,
every wet souls silent crossing-the-street prayer time,
we send satan down like a bolt of lightning from heaven
like a touch on the cheek
or even just remembering…
(you little saudi boy beat behind the bedroom door, what was i supposed to do?)
there aint no help like the hand of god
there aint no love like the home of holy
there aint no hope like the house of zion
aint no weep like the river of god
aint no joy like forever everlasting
aint no bleed without seeing
no bruise without healing
no laugh without loving
no falling without rising
no smother
no snicker
no fatter
no wiser
no whimper

only love, the face of god.

we will puke up our sin on the floor, all over the sidewalks, in the hallways,
on our new beds, on our laptops, and dinner tables…
it will take years, but we might stand a chance at looking at each other
