Look Down Here
See Christ Here Poem and Picture 017--December 18, 2018

Turns out
twenty feet up on a ladder
leaning on the brick wall
of a church
doesn't bring you any closer to God
than staying on the ground.
That's the miracle, really
and the scandal:
the divine will not be held
"up there"
in heaven or over steeples.

Look down here.
