I am Lot’s wife
having looked back
became a frozen stone,
a statue of salt,
having looked back
became a frozen stone,
a statue of salt,
but now
having stood all these years
with the rain and desert storms,
world dropping down
to the ground,
my rigid silence
dissolves into tears.

my rigid silence

This has demanded time
and the sure-rhythmed seasons of life
to cast my eyes forward again,
and the sure-rhythmed seasons of life
to cast my eyes forward again,
knowing that
release
is the eventual way of all things.
