Listening to the Diane Rhem Show on NPR <br />I was struck by the author's bloody feet by sneaker incident <br />My seeing the world to a great extent as a mangled place <br />Where things frequently take on an energy of their own - <br />often negative and unintended <br />It made me think of another with bloody feet <br />Another buttress to the reality that there is some serious merit <br />In looking at this Jesus fellow <br />Once you are in the safety of a harbor of love <br />Which allows you to raise your eyes and see beyond a flat earth <br />Observe the ship's sails before the whole is seen <br />Know the earth is round.<br /><br />Bill Grace<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pre-lent-meditation-on-townie/
