I see Him beside

What was once a grave of stone

Broken from His shroud


And He was walking

Above the waves around us

Reaching out a hand


The land we were in

And we have cried out to Him

There He stands again


A woman reaches

Briefly grazing His tunic

And she is healed


One day they will bow

It was a normal morning. I had drank my first coffee of the day. I turned on some cooking show as background noise. Beginning to make ...

The Contact

When I enter I’m immediately surrounded by so many sounds and sights. Flashing colors, drunken laughter, suits with ties long forgotten, glasses clinking, and rolling dice.


I head towards the back of the floor, determination fueling my steps. I’m meeting the contact Renny set up. I was only able to get this meeting after reminding him of the favors I’ve given him that have put myself on the line....
