The sea rounded stones of Tiberia
refused to release me.
I fell to my knees in pain.
I could have drowned there.
Why could I not stand
where He stood?
Why could I not believe
the way he believed?
God is a secret.
I know the smell of plastic and flesh
burning.
I know the taste of blood and spent shells
on pavement.
I could have drowned there.
