"seek and sue": Edmund Spenser, Amoretti, xx, line 1
"changes and chances": 1979 Book of Common Prayer, p. 133
"The Sailor," etc.: Emily Dickinson, in a letter to Thomas Wentworth Higginson.
Bidding
morning coffee
is a prayer
*
unsneer our speech
O blessed Grace
unrage our hearts
*
weal and woe
seek and sue
changes and chances
*
can we learn
kneeling before each other
vulnerability
respect for the tenderness
of our kindred
*
sassafras's colour
on the fringe of November
*
The Sailor cannot see the North ---
but knows the Needle can
*
God is a verb
can peace be a verb
peace us :: whole us :: heal us
break us to beauty
weep us to love
