the burden of catechetical instruction

 

My eyes release teary promises I wanted to keep,

A sister wanted to win…

…now we shush the senses to a permanent pause,

..a premature halt…a random fullstop. 

… the ego,

defers this hot defiance to godly oblivion…

 

up there! Upward! . Into white paradise…

 

 

Down here though

…The world…a lonely den,

A finite box of hectic busyness…into nought.

A perishable indulgence…into nought.

A false forever…into nought

Platitudes from a loving friend – eternally irrelevant,

Nothing here, nothing there,

just an insidious zero that’s all!

 

 

One thing now, is clear…

I may find release in silly words…

but my linguistic range cannot explain

The burden of catechetical instruction on my soul,

I move tentatively into theology

with timid wisdom as guide..

 

*A perceiving of glorious love.

*  Godward into beautiful theology

 

…A sinner is warmly received…

 

*A perceiving of glorious love.

*Godward into beautiful theology

 

…“even angels yearn to look into these things”
