As brave as a poet who knows
That this is too important for prose,
Willing to reveal his inner becoming
And patient enough to show
Not tell what He's telling,
Nor too intent on bringing
The thought down to land,
Happy to leave it hovering
Leaving us to understand
That the truth is more often
Found in the hearing
And not available on demand.
So whoever has ears to hear,
Let them hear this Son of Man.
Inspired by a talk in St Pauls Cathedral.  Jesus could have stuck to the rulebook format, but instead gave us something much richer.  Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.
Mark 4: 1-20
