"So," they say, "nobody's perfect!"
But the Vinedresser won't buy that.
Given the opportunity, He will trim the unproductive suckers and shape the branches so each one will bask in Sonlight.

IF ONLY
Let me fly O God
Bear my vision on Your Breath’s wings
Bear my muse to creation’s end
Let it soar through skies
floating clouds
as great ships
of endless armadas
Let it rise through cobalt gasses too thin to breathe
to jet streams traversing oceans
shores
mountains
desserts
plains
Let it climb to the edge of nothingness
to the end of all things
abridged by human ambitions
Let it race to spots of light in blackness
colored events shaping other worlds
to grasp the old with the new
Then let it halt
Turn about
Gaze on that corner of infinity
Open wide my soul to embrace all
Cleanse my eyes of mean things
my mind of small thoughts
my heart of irrelevant past
Not to understand what is
for that is Your privilege
But to create what realities could be
if only my vision will fly
