Opportunities in the wild,
Persistent choking weeds abound,
Where? In me.
/
Please don’t leave me exposed,
Heart unattended during critical surgery,
Damaging perspective infestation,
Unruly flesh desiring my head.
/
Please, Jesus,
Remove me,
Ego broadcasting misery.
False calls from its commentary booth,
Misdirection plus misinformation crews,
Hidden among what I really should choose,
Screaming pick me buddy and we’ll ride.
/
Too much of me in the way,
A two-dollar steak under grace,
Tenderize, humble my, puffed up walk.
