Yes, I am the same God
that dwells among you
Grace incarnate
again and again
in times and among peoples
various as the stars
if that mighty being
beyond all description
but experience
ever begat anything
it is but me,
me, love and grace
wherever the heart shrinks
and tyranny reigns
and lust and greed
masquerade as law
into that parched desert
do I descend, when
Jordan baptizes the soul
Ichthys of God, I make twelve
the anglers of fisherfolk
who cast their nets wide
and catch me in their soul
so they can behold
Him, that I am,
no greater miracle than this
was ever made

Ichthys, as you know, is the mystical 'Jesus Fish'. Some Lent meditations
