live every day as jubilee. unenroll identity. pave the way for moses. allow the cat to amble around my shins. commune. photograph the familiar. tell you my secret. have you tell me. break bread with pharisees. read to the incapable. patch my jeans. accept gratitude. ask without self-interest. lament those who lack regret. lament my own lack. pray for irrational grace. tend to unseen crops.
