The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus


your heart chose to flourish

in a way that caught my attention.


how could I not be drawn in

by the draping of thorns? the wide

throbbing center of something so real?


if I look into your eyes, I forget

your finger, pointing to the center

of the sun.


you told me I was a worried seed,

too fickle to blossom, too flighty

to be a root vegetable.


could we bury your heart?

start a new world full of

trembling red light?
