Duct tape and activity

Here I am with my broken heart

That I've tried to hold together

With duct tape and activity and busyness

With imaginations that couldn't come true

When they did come true, couldn't fulfill

So now I'm in this empty space.

So much potential

So little clutter

But I don't know how to be in this way

I don't know how to hold it open without shutting it down

Holy Spirit come be with me

Come walk me through this disorienting openness

Lest I lose it once again in busyness and duct tape.
