All I need is All of You.

 

"All & Every"

 

("The Lord God says, 'I am the Alpha and the Omega. I am the One who is and
was and is coming. I am the All-Powerful.'" Revelation 1:8)

 

Take this heart invisibly, the One created-not-born,
and unbreak the fissures, or fill them presently
with the passion unending.

 

At every point on every line, 
every line on every plane,
every plane on every facet interface with me.

 

Higher than my suspect prayers,
deeper than my conceived potions,
sweeter than my anger disguised as righteous,
kinder than the hidden thoughts behind flashing eyes;

 

Be to me everything I cannot be,
within each molecule, the air between elements,
the charged plasma between electrons darting around
the center of each atom,
be all in me, all for me, all me and only me.

 

And delete me as well as I delete my digital words
with calloused fingers on the keyboard. Delete the 
me that uses me as a portrait of best things when
the rest of things are undone.

 

All, my solid footing. Every, my absent nothing.
And as darkly as I see through the glass smudged with
strong-minded sludge, be my light behind the shadow
and the joy for the window of my soul.

 

 

Enjoy,

mark p.
