In the Near East, God came to you
like clouds, like toes on holy ground, like messengers that touch
your nephesh (נֶ֫פֶשׁ) (throat/soul) -- I lift to touch His hands, to let Him touch me;
He’s in the Babylonian wilderness you and I lie in.
He’s in the confessional. He’s in my brother’s cat,
going into the next life.

Do just once what others say you can't do, and you will never pay attention to their limitations again.
