The lowdown
I’m being dragged off my high horse,
to get the lowdown – estrangement from God is not
just this tender ill-fitting within the human skin,
not just a death sentence, or the mind’s torment,
not just a shuttered, malformed heart
strapped to this one hapless soul
but a corruption and a contagion
sowing its seeds of anguish everywhere I go.
O child of God, you are in the Master’s hands.
Some disclosures hurt worse than others.
