PSALM FOR KAREN
Hear me out Karen
wife of all my days
everything good that I carry
anything containing any worth. Karen,
continuous dwelling
place of God,
who knows my protest
who knows everything coming from me
making claims of achievement,
who knows how wrong
it all sings,
in spite of your love
and hymn of devotion.
You, who wait with great patience
for the work to fail
and I come to my senses.
Only in my exhaustion
may the song come from God.
