As if they needed proof, confirmation
that the words of the apostle were true
God placed an exclamation point
of the promise, the words of saving, equality
Like the first, they received the same tongues of fire
the flames of Pentecost, descending on Cornelius
on his family, his whole house, assurance
all would be saved, all given the spirit’s song
all, no matter race, or gender, no barriers
a personal Pentecost available to all
