A seed in Antioch


A seed is sown in Antioch
on the face of it, rather
an infertile, unproductive
ground growing only weeds,
no promised land
no milk or honey
barren of soul
devoid of spirit.

A seed was sown in Antioch
and took root, sprouted
growing in the most unlikely
of fields.

Two freedoms


What is it I asked
what is this news
he said it is two:
freedom from
freedom to
freedom from what
enslaves
freedom to be
a servant
A contradiction I said
a reality he said
smiling
one does not exist
without the other
