January 28th

"For your steadfast love is higher than the heavens, 
    and your faithfulness reaches to the clouds."  Psalm 108:4

as
we put our love
into that dryer called
our arid heart, spinning
it around and around until
it becomes as small as
piece of pocket lint
and as
our trust seems to be
for sale to the person
who offers the best bargain
or is easily thrown about
by the winds of fear,

how you must shake
your head in disappointment,
O God.
