The Gospel

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

[Paul, writing to Christians @ Corinth, 1 Cor. 15:1-4]

Last Year


-->The wind will pick up in April.
From there I’ll spend May going around,
while November isn’t aware of Christmas yet.
Then I’ll call you every night,
especially when it’s raining,
and I’ll teach myself to love the rain.
Last year was more magical.
The rain didn’t fall when we had
to show ourselves to the neighbors,
and your teddy bear had never been happier
in my bookshelf, among the poetry books
and ghost stories.
April is not a lonely month, really.
