I can do all things
I can do all things through Christ
He will strengthen me

Haibun: Bodhisattva II
Tell me about your life,
the one hidden from view.
Odysseus has nothing on you,
your veiled celebrity
and inheritance of justice.
For all of our sakes
This is for humanity
Not every one

Haiku: The Actor In Our Midst
A difficult part
Your dispelling of darkness
Singular triumph

Haibun: Bodhisattva
I follow you,
my Buddha in the being,
born to fame and luxury,
subject to loss and tragedy.
You lead a life of example,
of peace and patience.
I judge you by what is done,
not by what you say,
though such few words
have meaning
Better a good man
Rather than one who is great
I can follow you
