On Confusion

Kyrie Yeshua

Mercy on this man
Mercy on his head and on his heart
Mercy on his hands and his feet
Mercy thrown down with full violent fervor

For my foot falls outside
This narrow circle of light
And I am a narrow and cautious man

For my path is thick with fog
And I am a narrow and cautious man

For my next
For my then
For my therefore
Are all shrouded in darkness

Mercy for this man
Mercy for his coming and going
Mercy for his today and tomorrow
Mercy for his imperfect rumination
Mercy thrown down with full violent fervor

    This is in response to some thoughts by J.R. Briggs at Pierced Chapel tonight. When I write out the history of my life, this man may well get credit for spitting dangerous words at auspicious times.

    Looking forward to hearing about it…I think. [Does his message really qualify for every category on this blog...technology, emerging church, faith & theology, philosophy, art & culture, etc.? If so...wow.]

    no, his message doesn’t, but my confusion does.
