Lamentation Song

Look at the brokenness in us
How lonely is this city, now a widow become
She was a princess, but friends fell away
tears her bitter children, fire in her bone.
Look look look,
does anyone see?
Is any pain like my pain
a wound
as deep as deep
as deep as the sea
Sorrow on sorrow
Look at the brokenness in you
Your downfall applauded, your nakedness bare
Festivals and fortunes of dust and debris
Wanderer of roads trod deep with despair
Look at the brokenness in me
Walled in with a lion, a desolate mark
A temple invaded by armies my own
Rebellion the rampart, ruin the bars
Witness,
give me your cheek
Silence, when sentenced
alone
Listen,
mouth to the dust
Bear together, that we may hope.

Wisdom Feast

Well before the springs
Or the mountains climbed
And the fields were soil
And there was no sky
When the heavens were dreams
And the sea untamed
And the deep foundations
Yet to be laid
As a master she
With the circle drawn
To begin all things
Forges out our song:
"Delight each day
At the wisdom feast
And see her bliss
In our familiar scenes"
Though the world may miss
Her clarion call
In our simpleness
We elect Sheol
from the highest place
By the lowest kind
Let us turn in here
For a wiser mind
She has built her house
And hewn its beams
She has mixed her wine
Of her bread we eat
By her hand our days
Are multiplied
And the years will heap
And our hearts be joined
