a long visit ends
the despondent man whispers
"it's good to be seen."
see goodness in the land of the living. ::: hear music in the key of the life. ::: know and be still.

on call.
there is a moment
that is unlike all moments
it preys upon a chaplain
like a lion in the grass
the moment does not meet you
or await your arrival to it
it swallows you in an unforeseen lapse of time
it may come in a hallway
or in a staircase
or in an empty office
but it is always the same.
when the moment
sinks in its teeth
you know:
you
are
everything.
the moment reveals what is true
about chaplaincy
about life
about being human.
you
are
everything.
