The Image of God


If we are created in the image of God,
creativity is the face of that image.

  1. Face-Off

    Melville peeled back
    God’s face and found
    White space in spume
    Rising like a whale.

    Kafka picked up
    The telephone and heard
    Instead of a dial tone
    Choirs of angels.

    Jonah sulked in
    The belly of a whale
    Because he wouldn’t
    Do God’s bidding.

    Job, God’s most faithful
    Lost everyone he loved
    Because of a bet the Lord
    Made with the Devil.

    Shape-shifter, madness
    Behind a clown’s mask,
    Why move this painted
    Rock away from its tomb?
