Eschaton

As Jordan descends
To the sea where it ends
As it falls from the spring
To death,

The Word of God speaks
From the heavens above
To pass through all people
In breath.

At the slap of his butt
The baby doth cry
To exchange for the water
His wind,

For the Spirit of God
Still descends unto man
Flowing endlessly onward
Toward sin.

From the springs of the earth
Does the Jordan descend
To the shores of the living
Dead Sea.

Where the body floats upward,
As on that Holy Day
When the Spirit arises
In me.
