Salt & a Blanket & Magic

11.22.14
Today, Jesus.
Today was a reminder of how much I love You. Say Geronimo! 
I've got to. You hunted me down,
You invited me to the picnic, You led me barefoot
into thistles and "cutgrass" but You made mud paste for my eyes,
and I don't want to miss this.

When I'm blind, You whistle like a bird for me to cross the street,
the river. You are rich espresso, strange marvelous spices
I know to be true at first sip.
Keep me never satisfied with ketchup.
I'm hungriest for You. You're salt & a blanket & magic.

Holy Son of God, Righteous King, Lord,
Geez, You're somethin' to see.
(Help me be reverent & confident?)
