There has to be that immaculate flash of understanding and if it's when we're dying, perhaps that's how it has to be, I have an idea that it'll be interesting, but that's only an idea and I have no desire to find out yet.

On my second cup of 'joe' and I'll soon be good to go.

However
going and getting nowhere is no good to anyone,
a little voice in my head says,
stay in bed, John,
and I am tempted
although I think Eve did a better job with Adam.

The nativity is all set to be played out
and yet
most people I know are prayed out,

so many things to pray about
and the clock is ticking.
