Poems

Look over shoulder

From the June 1981 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Where do you stand—
here, now?
What outworn footprints
trail you—
hate, indifference, waiting?

Awake!
Stand free!
You are not in a race
with time and space.
You live the infinite now.

Horizonless presence,
Cycles of now
possess your days
in countless ways—
a walk-with-you presence,

not here, not there,
but everywhere:
God All.
Know it. Live it.
Stand tall!
