Wake up with God’s
grace on face –
a taste or chance
to advance with an agenda
of providence
governed by the hands
that allowed

when I gave it
to corporate inclinations…
and in their innovations

From deepest hollows
of sorrow,
bereft of grace
walls cave in
and we fall
but, through it
all, I’ll opt
to stand tall.
