troublers


“When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, ‘Is it you, you troubler of Israel?’”  1 Kings 18:17

in these days,
we need folks
who would overturn
the tables of fear,
who would let the air
out of pompous politicos,
who would pack injustice’s bags,
and put it on the next train
out of town . . .

could you spare us
just a few troublers, God,
please?
