Question

Christian Century, August 24, 2004 by Jenn Blair

Question

   What if the kingdom
   is solider than this door,
   stauncher than walls of oak,
   what if hope
   resounds louder than the thick
   brass knocker on the bank door?

   What if flimsy
   translucent angel wings
   lauded in song, but delicate as moth,
   last night tore apart a mountain
   merely accidentally brushing by?

   What if grace is denser than iron--and
   light, even unbraided,
   breaks the fall of a stone.
