today
i met again my dead father
the skin-walker
he who stole the shell of an other
he who in the only way he knows
calls out to me for
forgiveness
absolution
love
so that he might finally rest
in blessed peace
i have never wished for him to find peace
i have never wished to set him free
i have needed him to suffer
i have needed him to pay
i did not understand his pleas for resolution
for what they were
i did not want to know
today i do know
by god's grace
i hear the truth
resonating
from deep
within my being
the peace i seek
may only come about
through granting
this long-suffering soul
forgiveness
absolution
love
blessed peace
for each of us
must then surely follow
amen
more to come....
