Hear the Sky

x

Today the sky is talking through

The rain,

Discussing how to wash the

Earth

Tonight the sky

Might be humming a humid tune

About solace, anyway, and rest

x

The sky can sing

Through brightened colors

The rainbow, yes,

But don’t forget the message

In the blue,

Beauty that is not owned

By anyone

That doesn’t care for borders

But flies over them

Unchallenged

x

The sky is its own master

We can hear that anytime

It will speak its blessings

Or admonishments

Maybe we should listen

And respect

And offer messages of harmony

Ourselves

x

Does the sky hear us?

It may have heard

It might hear again

It Doesn’t Toll for Thee

It Doesn’t Toll for Thee

 

Wrong people get the message

Wrong ones think they’ve

Wronged—

Things are so awful,

What did we do?

 

Those who ask typically deserve

Nothing of an answer, for

Nothing did they wrong

God does not wring the faithful,

Even if grayed

Might be the faith

 

Those who have worse-wronged

The people and the planet

Rarely ask after

What they’ve done

Or realize the reckoning is for them

While the faithful, like

Lazarus,

Own paradises, now
