Snuggled tight in down and cotton
linen thoughts and morning vows.
I find a sovereign God is waiting,
waving off my fearful doubts closed thick around my whispering lips.
I'm losing the faith it takes to be intimate
to do more than submit to power.
Watching the light grow on the ceiling,
I beat my chest, "Have mercy on me, a sinner."
