we live in a church (remix)

somewhere there is a place

made of glass

shards like puzzle pieces

fitted perfectly together

a place where the light

is golden and diffused

through so many panes

we thought were shattered dreams

broken lives

sorry stories

-of the people who blame God

for the darkness of man

yet this then would be the place

where it all comes together

and makes sense

doesn’t prick your finger

it exists somewhere after forever

and began before you were

cracked and come apart

i will walk there, then

(are you coming with me?)

with no clear direction, but instinct

intuition

may I not cut my feet

(our feet?)

on illusions and trappings

not cease to trust

lose faith that there is that place

where everything begins to slide together

and become a whole

diffused light, yes

and perfect clarity

(and it pains me to think

of that simple sheet of glass)
