your snowflake shape

i'm sad because she is leaving
how many Wednesdays do we have left now
in this quiet flat?

and isn't that how it is these days, the coming the going the friendship
good thing i get to be with her for eternity
otherwise I could not let go so easily and wish her well
but, B, I wish you well... this is not goodbye
and you are always welcome
at my door

the healer showed up on my prayer blanket this morning and said
i am the healer

pulled long pieces of paradigm out of my ears [ and kept pulling ]
and then showed me a meek man with holes in his wrists 
cupping my ears

precious, sweet girl he says, stroking the right side of my face

in my anger, my lush, my fits, he said
there is no one like you
no love like your snowflake shape
and that I should really start wearing myself more often
because he created certain  people to be met by me to be brought to his face through me
[ that is how we all are 
we should stop doubting so much ]

he shared myself with me like he had knit me together himself
and then my headache went away

_____________________________

it was dark
the car smelled like it always did accept this time
he was crying

yes, it was through the marijuana but God can get through the marijuana

do you even know how small I am you are
it's laughable to think we have lost hope now
I will not cry about the marijuana anymore
I will use that space to ask God to speak and touch his heart through it
to show up in it

because HE IS GOD and I know I know I know
because I have been praying for tears
(his heart is not a stone like they may think)

and even a stone?
God makes living water burst from
so maybe it should become a stone
so God can prove to all of them that
HE IS GOD

(im laughing)
