Poem for Bob Goff

Cars for Sale

Tuesdays I drive into town with Jesus.

We don’t talk much. He gives me

His’ what more needs to be said’ look

and fiddles with the radio to get pysched.

We pour love at the Walmart

walking down the aisles like they were water.

 

Sometimes folks raise their hand

halfway to their face as if they recognize Him

in each other.

There’s little else to go on,

gentle, humble in heart.

Mercy, how He teases me

to let Him drive.
