the
heavens ripped wide open
eternity
and the present
in
the same space;
the
Spirit descending
like
a bird, like a dove.
the
heavens rent, cutting the sky,
piercing
this moment;
God’s
Spirit falling
landing
on Christ bodily
informing
His life.
the
Father speaking
from
heaven, from His throne
a
voice booming across the sky;
our
God claiming Christ Jesus
as
His only begotten Son.
