Chaos
Swirling twisting writhing
bands of nothing
and everything
A seething sea of sand
threatening to suck to
oblivion any who dare
venture close
Caught in the maelstrom
light and dark
flashes of familiar overcome
by strange and frightening
dimensions expand and contract
up and down in and out
no longer helpful
directions
chaos has no markers
And there
in what might be
center
or not
a table
spread
a cup
full to
overflow
a host
who bids
“Come and dine.”
All around the
chaos swirls
But in the
with Him
calm
Suddenly it clears
for just a moment
and even the
chaos is found
to be part of
In Him
Life.
