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]

Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall

I am.
Quietly alone.
What few stories I’ve written
I leave closeted in another nook,
so on my return journey
there’d be room and quiet spaces
to be filled with you.

We are.
Quietly alone.
It could have been June and raining
when I first heard your name.
I etched in on my wall
for safekeeping.

Because I trust in love
I’d find it there, like the old
photographs I knew so well.
