Some maintain that it's toxic to hate
And that loathing just makes you irate.
While that might well be true,
Someone vile (you know who)
Deserves both and much more. No debate!

Justice's song
that summons our liberation
is grounded in the harmony
that we call Love
When each creature is beloved valued
we shall all be free

Justice is a central vocation and aspiration of our life’s journey. It is also a word that can be corrupted and watered down. It can even be weaponised against the very thing for which it aspires to establish: peace.
From my faith vantage, as a Christian, to hold on to this central component of my belief I need to remember that justice models acts that embody Love. This connexion, between justice and love, then allows for a constant frame of reference. If love does not inform just acts, then justice simply becomes another manner in which to oppress ourselves and one another.

across the pavement
liquid with new rain, the snails
make a run for it

Brand new words are like catnip to me;
I explore roots and meaning with glee.
Once enlightened, I swoon,
Though, alas, this great boon...
Shall soon from my memory flee.

The performer said they were warmer
the batter said they were better
so i wrote a formal letter
to the former and the latter
i asked them both to stop their silly chatter.
Not in complexity
of word salad
nor glitter consumed
Mystery as Simplicity
most often found
in the sun's rise
with foregrounded clouds
on day mild

#MicroReflection
What if we learned to attend to presence without chasing excess?
We frequently move quickly, training our eyes toward noise, brightness, and scale. Yet life keeps offering meaning through small moments we might overlook. We notice quiet patterns, gentle rhythms, and steady returns that shape trust. These moments ask for patience rather than mastery. They invite reverence through attention, not achievement. As a community, we practise slowing down, receiving what is already given. In shared breathing, familiar paths, and repeated gestures, depth appears. We are changed when we choose awareness over spectacle and care over distraction. Together, we learn to look.
