Circular relationships


After Ephesians 6:1-9
 

Read the words. Watch

the rounded movements, See

what he’s doing, pairing

theoretical opposites, 

turning our understanding

on its head.

 

Children and parents,

parents and children,

slaves and masters,

masters and slaves.

 

We think we know

what these are and

how they function,

but he says no,

responsibilities are

mutual, responsibilities

exist on both sides,

and they are transformed

by faith, shared.
