He did not get to do things the easy way
He got to learn hard lessons by burning his tongue
on molten lamb
volcanic peas
He got to jump off a too tall turnpike exit
to learn that gravity
can be a bitch
He discovered
step by step
that love doesn't happen by force
when he cupped his hands
and met Christ in the Eucharist
He got to learn hard lessons by burning his tongue
on molten lamb
volcanic peas
He got to jump off a too tall turnpike exit
to learn that gravity
can be a bitch
He discovered
step by step
that love doesn't happen by force
when he cupped his hands
and met Christ in the Eucharist
