Spell Checker

by Will Schmit

New rule.

You are what you hear;
bottle nosed whale slide blues,
mint and fern whipping the air,

to turn your head
the voice of the Shepherd
whistling through His teeth.

Facts and faith, a jumble
of Scrabble letters face down,
we need to spell ourselves.

It’s possible to have the Christ
in ways unbelievable to believers,
but to believe He has us,
that’s worth baking bread.
