Jesus Calls

Jesus calls, out of some dream,
walking proudly down an impossible road
'til he veers into wildness, the madness
of Bacchus and the children of nature...
what storm does this portend? What future
comes, wherein these images find their sense?
I cannot be afflicted, but neither
can I fully escape this entanglement,
feeling these prophecies swoon and wash over
my humbling heart. I will play my part.
I will find my way home.
