~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your "if" is the only peacemaker; much virtue in "if."
Shakespeare
The Way is hard, they told me, strewn with
sin and sacrifice and salvation, if . . . . it was
that "if" that churned hard in my soul as the
preacher, in the name of the Father, the Son,
and the Holy Ghost, pushed my mush-filled
head under that icy water until I gasped for air.
I would become a disciple he assured me as
I was raised from water, from death . . . . if -
again that word of doubt and fear.
As warmth returned I hoped it was the warmth
and promise of new life filled with change
enough to make me a fit disciple - if.
