When I create
I’m drunk dialing God.
It isn’t like dialing a phone.
It’s all loosey-goosey.
I might end up anywhere
or nowhere.
Maybe that’s the point.
It is
just like dialing a phone
but without a phone book.
And with my eyes closed.
It’s like leaping from a burning building
and knowing from long experience
that I’ll be caught.
It’s calling
out
and up
and knowing that
whatever I connect with
is what I’m supposed to
connect with.
It’s calling God in the middle
of the night
of my life
and saying I’m lost
and I don’t know how to get back
to myself.
The more I do this
the more I reach out
into that shapeless void
and pull out something that
surprises me.
And in finding it
I find myself.
Everytime.
