My walls
are a little bit sick.
Probably the lack of vitamin D
or exposure to the outside.
Mildew grew
sleeping deep down in places
I’d rather not know about.
Wooden beams bend
while structural bones
and stones
rot.
Cracks in the plaster give way to
holes.
Mold spews onto
my neighbors
grass
and newsfeed.
Am left to my own devices?
And vices?
And ways of ridding the sin?
a plea for help!
The process begins with:
Forgiveness
Mercy.
I must relinquish my whole house to the Builder.
Sit still. Be still.
Wait for Him to begin, within.
While He removes
rocks and rubbish.
Hate and apathy.
Mold and rust.
Fear and distrust.
Once the whole shell of the house is bare bones.
No bad stones.
Just a few dusty ragged rocks
left in the walls.
The Builder takes One more block and
To reset the Foundation
to rest upon the
Rock.
