& Then Portland Sent Truth & Peace

so weary!
and leery!
and dreary!
I feel.
stop this mind from racing all the time
restful peace
come hither,
be mine.
it was here earlier
but now it's long gone
and out of sight
on this restless,
sleepless,
clogged-up left nostril night
I remember sleepand what a comfort it once was
but now all it does is
leave me lacking because even there these thoughts
just won't stop yacking.
so I, I hit the floor and on bruised knees
start banging down your door.
can't take this anymore.
HOLY SPIRIT manifest your BEING
comfort this soul so that I can start singing
of that peaceful feeling
that any minute now you'll be bringing.
grace grows in winter I am told
(but that's not what I want to hear right now, truth be known)
it's you Father that I desire
so put out this unHOLY FIRE
and set ablaze me anew
with a peace that comes only from you.
where else can I turn and what else may I do?
here I am
yours.
here I am
yours.
here I amy ours.
