To know and preach nothing but Christ….
Could we put oceans in a cup,
a desert in an hour-glass,
the skies in a falling rain-drop,
the planets in a marble-bag,
it wouldn’t touch the Lord,
swaddled in a body,
who also humbly wore
the girdle of our laws,
was threaded through
the streets of Jews,
endured the spit
and then was split
like hairs
of truth.
Where brevity meets depth, and verse sparks change.

KEEPING CHRIST JESUS IN FULL VIEW
Trust me, I've been there, I've looked, I've searched and I know now, that there are no answers to be found in the bottom of a bottle or on the edge of a blade! Fighting Hard, Recovering, Rebuilding, REBORN. Moving on from addiction to a new life.

The Voice of One 
Powerful. You carried the unifying imagery to the threshold, then spilled over in the process of switching from the literal and the questioning to the abstract and the tautologies. Even the tautologies were captured in fine expression. Glorious, inspiring and thought-provoking. Just the way a great spiritual work should be made.
And I was so carried away by the mastery of language and imagery that I didn’t realize the ‘narrowing sonnet’ line pruning structure. Awesome!
Thanks for your kind words & feedback. Made my day!
Youre welcome! Keep writing!
Will do!
Beautiful beginning. Really hooked me in.
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Once again, Teague, a wonderfully succinct piece of truth.
I blush to ask: Is this original?
