"To:Jeanne Guyon"

15, 2007
" To:Jeanne Guyon"

"Hope scans the galaxy;
mirrored blinded Light.
Lying to a throat that's parched,
dreams, familiar curse.
Novel, writer's travesty;
heroine loses fight.
Sword piercing weakened heart;
summons vulture thirst.
Insane from the blessing;
choking on Your silence;
still, I am kneeling.
in Your favorite pose.
Memories transgressing,
upon Your theme of violence,
Breaking in and stealing,
the thorn becomes the Rose.
Driven mad by guessing,
what's behind the mask,
Questions are disruptive,
to godly imagery.
But,as we move, undressing;
I have learned, at last,
The thorns are more seductive,
than a rose could hope to be

What a great line - often it is in the face of suffering that we feel most alive.
Dunno how i feel about Madame Guyon and her belief that in suffering people are blessed.. that is whole other discussion though. I enjoy the challenge of your themes. Thanks for sharing
