"a dust storm' or 'crossroads'        timothy r gates, 2/1/2014


coming to the
crossroads,
falling to my knees -
tears went dry:
Jesus and his nemesis
at the auction block,
claiming bragging rights to my soul,
it dawned on me,
"This is mine to keep,
to ask to be kept,
or to give it up."
Some,
"Want to go to heaven,
but nobody wants to die."
Some,
desire neither a heaven or hell,
only want to die.
turning around,
at the crossroads
a dust storm baptized my seeing --
wiping my eyes clean:
Gethsemane said hello to
Emmaus,
they seem to desire a triad,
waiting for my note.
i hear the silence of this chord.
