it is not a downfall
that i hope for
how would that suffice?
instead,
let it be
the slate wiped clean
breaking news
of innocence
redemption
reverence
every face
seen
recognized
known
as though
seeing the face
of God*

*Genesis 33
the lion will lie down with the lamb
the lion
will lie down
with the lamb*
all that gnaws
stalks
preys
consumes
will give up
the surrender
will be silent
no fanfare:
it is the moment
when
~self-aware~
we come to ourselves
uncompromised
unravaged
pristine
an undisputable joy
about us
