Grass and LIons

I shrink from ushers,
straw baskets on a pole
moving down the worship line;

a five dollar bill will not
absolve my sins;
my throbbing knees

can barely hold
me humble.

I'm not as sad
as you because
my heart is a hole

filled with grass
and trees and lions-

the things God
made guiltless.
