GLUE

 

We’re broken ….

We’re split ….

We’re cracked ….

We’ve been dropped a dozen times.

Yet we still might be able to be used

again and again and again,

that is, if we find the right glue

or cement or tape – anything

that would help to put ourselves

back in the game called “life” again.

As long as we don’t mind

that others spot our brokenness.

or crack lines or split stone....

Why not? The world has been split

over and over again …. Like bread -

like Christ – like the Grand Canyon

of his chest - on the cross that day.
