A few days ago I shared about my journey through depression and anxiety. As I continue to engage with Jesus about that, the scripture that has been very prevalent in my life is Mark 4:35-41. Join me in the processings as I take the passage and compose a what's called a "found poem" where you use lines from the scripture or passage to create the whole poem.
Asleep
a found poem
Go across to the other side.
Let us go across to the other side.
Evening had come.
Great wind arose.
Wind, storm, arose.
Waves, sea, arose.
Waves beat into the boat.
Great storm!
Boat swamped!
Wind, storm, arose.
Waves, sea, arose.
Jesus!
Do you not care!
We are perishing?!
Do you not care!?
Asleep on the cushion.
Do you not care.
Wind, storm, asleep.
Waves, sea, asleep.
Jesus.
He woke.
Woke up and rebuked.
Rebuked the wind.
Spoke to the said.
Peace. Be still.
Obeyed.
Wind, storm, obey.
Waves, sea, obey.
Rebuked. Peace, be still.
Wind, storm, calm.
Waves, sea, calm.
Dead calm.
Afraid.
Let us go across to the other side.
Evening had come.
The other side.
Storm.
Jesus. Was asleep.
He woke up.
Peace be still.
Who is this?
