just for today
I’m wearing my specs
carrying a hat
polished shoes
cane
tail coat
ruffled collar
red vest
……
going formal frog
with wings transparent!

I’m scared
I’m scared
of letting go of my
grandiosity.
self-assurance
moves me
impetuously.
Imagination flies me off
the ground.
status puffs me up with fluff.
If I let the Creator take over
His mystery will bring ambivalence.
And so
I’m scared.
Did you say: “start to trust him?”
I am not a child.
Or maybe, to Him I am.
Christ and Sanctifier,
show me the Father.
And the Mother
and the adult child that is me.
Please.
Just for today.
This poem is about:
Me
