Creature of the Moment---

creature of the moment…

creature
of the moment—war
devouring life
spitting out
collateral damage

creature
of the moment—peace
kneeling
in a dried blood
riverbed

creature
of the moment—love 
nauseated
by hate’s
nauseous breath

creature
of the moment—hope 
ripening 
in redemptive fields
of resurrection

creature
of the moment—faith 
arching
perpetually bending
towards justice
