The story of Francis and Clare of Assisi inspires me to come to my senses in ever truer and more meaningful ways. My identity as brother colors all I meet and experience. The mystery of being draws me and gives me hope.

Just Right
It is the last day of April when
across the street at the entrance to
the county jail shadowed by
the court house
pear trees in a chill wind
blossom and sway me
to reverence the way they
reveal what is
just
right

Knee
I
bend
I cannot
not bend
before what
or whom
I bend
though
is either
worship
or
suicide

Back
go
can I
home
I mean
wind
whispers
no
if flat
if round
yes
then whirls
to whistle
follow
me
Audio:
Round
without you
my world is flat
with you
I remember
the way
is not straight
with you
I real
I
round

Worth
not present
to my own
I long for one
who will be there
with rest
from my interrogator
who stares me down
to ask
So you are
worth…
