Repair: A word for today

O Holy One, we have spilled oil
drilled
made Your pristine presence quake

We have fouled Your waters
rotted your air
still our thirst is not slake

What will it take, O Holy One
for us to wake, repair
soiled sea? sooty sky?

Replace ravenous greed
with hunger
for Your Holiness

……..A New Psalm 60
