blessing
Harvey S. Mozolak

the blessing
wrestling
Jacobean-style
face to face
precipice to precipice
nailing down God
with hammer holds
struggling
to end the eternal
why
have you forsaken?
there held
in the stopped hands
of time
pinned by God
the blessing
limping away from the wood socket
wearing the life preserver


Lectionary 29
Genesis 32. 22-31
