I, the one speaking to you

“I, the one speaking to you”,
not some vague reference
the Messiah with you present
so clear a statement
not an oblique message
a parable, a metaphor
an analogy only
his statements to her

this unexpected audience
this woman at the well
speaking to her, so directly,
a Samaritan at that.
Jesus, in no ambiguity,
speaking his authority,
“I am he, the Messiah,
the Christ. I, the one
speaking to you,”
the hope of all mankind.
