we long for Your appearing

self-existent One
rolls out the years
lifts the burden of time
casts down the high places
restores the years the locusts have eaten
covers the vulnerable
saves the lost
finds the ones who have wandered away ...

self-existent One
clothed in clouds
hiding Your glory
in a woman's womb
revealed in bloody flesh
walking dusty streets
suspended in time
a pendulum that just stopped ...

going down, down
swallowed by the earth's core
ingesting swathes of darkness as You went
Your singular way ...

eternity rolled out
from the rising of the self-existent One
who existed, exists
hidden in the womb of many hearts ...
