Edith Tiempo Quotes
For when down on the knees
The man (or god) stretches the arms
In giving,
It is no accident the hands
Are curled like bowls or cups,
For he offers self, yet
Begs it back again.

Yet the calling of Christ's kingdom no only separates a man from the world, it also sends him to the world.

Begs it back again.
