Hands
May 17, 2013
Walk in, stand, wait, feel.
He's there, I know it, I know.
Oh no—hands, hands, hands.
Sit, stand, kneel, stand, wait.
Without even looking, the presence is so heavy.
My heart’s thumping, sweat dripping, hands cold.
Oh—hands, hands, hands.
Waiting is agony, exhilarating, excruciating.
Just a boy—not just a boy… Oh boy.
Share a sign of peace:
Hands, hands, hand.
Look up, split second, and then
More hands, hands, hands.
