Concluding 2/11 IAM: A Walking Paradox

I am… standing on a rooftop
Still as a small child

I take the purple sash from my hips
And tie it around my neck
Like a superhero cape

The crown of thorns
Stays on my waist
Like Batman’s utility belt

I look for Jesus.

He is standing next to me
Robed in glorious light
Transfigured

My Father
Is down below
Ready to catch me

But the Spirit lifts me

And we fly

Finit
