Peace and Perfume: O the Humanity

Blessed are the Peacemakers
Says Jesus
God
Teach Us
To Make
Create
Policy Even
Shalom

Peace that is
Wholeness
Health
the kind that
Forbids Dehumanizing one another

God
You know
Because
You embodied
This being Human
There really is no
Such thing as
Microagressions

That is just us
Doing violence
to one another

In another way
Is there such
a thing as
“I dehumanized you
But it didn’t count?”

“I did violence
to your reflection
of the imago dei
But it was TOTALLY
Rationale”

Jesus says
Let the one without
Sin cast the first stone

And reminds us
to judge is Human
to give Justice Divine

God See to your humans
We are down here with
Governments trying to
start WWIII
while us people
are busy trying to afford Bread

Teach us to have
Potluck together
To Liberate one another
To Celebrate one another
As humanity

Teach us to be like Mary
To extravagantly Love one another
To wash one another’s feet in
perfume, so strong
that the scent
of the act

Fills the whole house

Give us the humanity
to love and serve
one another we pray
Amen.
