Father

the hunger is unbearable
makes me uneasy, queasy
but this hunger is grace
for it is nothing i could ever stir in myself
you put it in me
and you must satisfy
fill me up
so i may
overflow
onto you

nothing
is all i have
everything
i want to give you
you must provide

faith
hope
love

you provide both
the fire
and
the sacrifice

fill me up, God.
with faith
freedom
fire.
