He leaves in a metal car
drives on a concrete path
only to park in a concrete garage
sets his foot in a marble lobby
and rides the metal hatch to the sky
where he sits by a glass window
looks out beyond and sighs
"there must be more
than what I've been living for"

She stands in a green field
orange sun rises in the east
walks along a gravel path
with a wicker basket on her head
takes a seat on a dirt floor
shells peas between worn fingernails
looks into the sky and sighs
"there must be more
than what I've been living for"

You spoke with a gentle voice
substance took form and life was born
water broke and flesh appeared
promised seed in word and deed
giver of life now in plain sight
bread is body and blood is wine
"Feast with me like never before
I am more
than what you’re living for"
