finding mine


spring, i know, certainly follows winter
and you, with your inscrutable will, demand
absolute submission from me, and to me
you promise mercy, grace, and prosperity

as you outpoured the same to Abraham
Job and Jesus, not merely mythical figurines
and pieces of playful poetic ploy, inspiring
a waiting for your offerings with patience

while on my part, as a traveler of a pathless
path i have knocked every alien door
with the hope of finding my chair to rest
my feet continuing to trek your subtle trail
