an invitation to the stable


a time of expectation
of waiting, of following,
of journeying with Mary, with Joseph,
with the Magi who followed the star.

an invitation to the stable
to see the Messiah, the baby,
Mary’s first-born child
laid in a manger-bed.

whitewashed Christians
Matthew 23:27-28 (The Message)
““You’re hopeless, you religion scholars and Pharisees! Frauds!
You’re like manicured grave plots, grass clipped and the flowers bright,
but six feet down it’s all rotting bones and worm-eaten flesh.
People look at you and think you’re saints, but beneath the skin
you’re total frauds.”
