Now that Sige is gone

with loose lapwork

and cracked step,

come into me, Jesus.

Come into me and dull this pain

with Your sweet breath

that cools as it burns.

Darling Jesus hold me

while You drop to Earth.

Cover me with Your delicate

white thighs and shield me

from my Sige

     who is jealous

          of your embrace.

Don’t let Sige steal my spirit.

     Don’t let Sige take me

     away from You.

Come into me and dull this pain.

Make those small holes

into tearing voids

that blind me to the precious drops

     spilling out my nostrils,

     spilling down my throat.

O, Jesus, I love You.

Your flight has trembled the leaves,

     but don’t worry.

I can't die without You.

I can slumber outside Your arms,

now that Sige is gone

     with loose lapwork

          and cracked step.
