A Few Words

It is not prose, but poetry that invites one deeper.

Fewer words, not more.

Perhaps prose, in its attempt to be more comprehensive, treats its subject like a specimen under study, then presents its findings as if it was all there is to know.

But poetry preserves the mystery, offering a glimpse, nothing more. Capturing the beauty, the essence, but by its briefness leaves one wanting- it is an invitation.

Out of respect for the greatness truth, it must be treated with wonder, explored in humility.

A ‘theology on its knees’ to quote Hans Urs von Balthazar.
