DARK NIGHT

Is this the dark

Night of faith?

Believing

Without seeing

The point

Persevering in practiced

Devotion when feeling

Has gone

I can say I know

I know I can say

God is there

Here I am

A dark open

Space of sky

Without filter or shield

Waiting for Love’s

Completion

And my appetite

Will not be satisfied

With false presentation

Or fake representation

The one who speaks

Of God

Must now be as Moses

Translucent Christ

That light may shine

Through

And through me

In all that I am

I who know no other

Reason for being
