we are tossed like so much
shredded confetti
until our cries reach
the Master's sleeping ears.
Almost annoyed,
He shushes the wind and
whitecaps with a glance,
then turns disappointed eyes -
lighthouse slashes through
silent blackness -
on our stunned
and fearful selves.
Chaotic oceans -
vast forces that roil and swirl,
inchoate and insatiable -
who can tame them?
Only One stronger than
Nature itself -
One supernatural,
metaphysical,
bound not by Nature's laws.
Who is this man?
He is wrapped
in our humanity,
yet
stronger than any force.
No power,
no principality
in heaven or on earth
can overcome Him
without His willing
submission.
So, as chaos gathers
in hordes
and slaps greedily
against the sides
of our ship,
we will trust Him
who is Stronger,
though He may
seemingly sleep.
