James Lee Jobe writes
Stranger, come in and sit at the table.
Friend, are you hungry?
Break the bread with me,
And then rest for a while.
Blessed are the hungry
And blessed are the weary.
We are the same in the void,
You and I - beings of light,
Beings of empathy and love,
Human beings, souls
That exist inside of bodies.
Souls, in flesh and bone.
Touch your forehead to mine
And take my hands in yours.
Brother, sister, we are one.
We are all part of The One.

NOVEMBER QUESTIONS
how long do I have to wait
to learn which things are mine?
how long can I keep falling down
with no return, with no way out?
from where do so many frights and wastes
come to my soul?
which are the boundaries and what is the share
which is the strength and which is the weakness?
where do the tears of the whole world drop?
and where do the teardrops go?
why is night falling so soon now
why do all people hide?
