Build Me A Room


build me a room


restrain me from restraining
bind me to unbinding
let me run thru
the church
crying
stop
say nothing if
not in a rush of words
to call a still & holy silence
beams of light thru stained glass
windows high in the walls of hewn stone &
build me a room that refuses
the nails of any cross;

tigers in the pulpit
