(Austin, Aug 22, 2022)
Sometimes in Texas
it forgets to rain for a while

Until enough prayers build up
behind the dam and all hell breaks loose

And with all the noise of lightning and
thunder and cows and cars floating by
it takes a quite a while for heaven to hear
preachers on the rooftop wailing woe and Whoa!

Chain breathing with the Sioux
at a South Dakota sun dance

Praying that I might become
more perfectly hollow

That thy music may play
more beautifully through me

Setting the Poles c. 1910

For the Bakers of Ukraine

Audio Recordings, News / tagged Bread, Food, Prayer, Ukraine, War / March 15, 2022 / by neil_2015_wordpress@neilmeili.com

Wheat as wheat
is not easy to eat

Flour to be flour
needs mills and power

Bread to be bread
needs a baker to bake it

Give us this day, and them too

Resisting the Russian onslaught … without picking up a gun
