Transformation
happen
The caterpillar
doesn’t decide
to stop inching
its way
among the green
twigs and stems
to
hang itself, interred within a chrysalis.
Does
not decide to become a winged creature,
abandoning
all previous incarnations.
No
decisions are made. No power wielded.
It
cannot stand apart from itself
to
judge or direct the process.
Transformation
happens to the caterpillar
(a
butterfly all along), its ultimate
self
revealed through spiritual maturation.
O
child of God, at some point what must I do?
becomes
what will God next ordain?
