I Want to Know: 19 August 2003
these things do not add up
esau plus jacob
israel plus egypt
jeremiah plus isaiah
job at all
you say that
you will have mercy
on whom you will have mercy
and they say that
you will have mercy
on everyone who will have you
and some say
that is mercy
and i say that
i want to know
because i want you to be
the great good, the uncaused cause, the loved beloved,
aragorn and gandalf and eru and galadriel and treebeard and tom bombadil in one
but you are not
you are wholly other
and i want to know
who you are
and are not
and why i should stick around
