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.
