I leave aside my shoes, my ambitions
undo my watch, my timetable
take off my glasses, my views
unclip my pen, my work
put down my keys, my security
to be alone with you, the only true God.
After being with you
I take up my shoes, to walk in your ways
strap on my watch, to live in your time
put on my glasses, to look at your world
clip on my pen, to write up your thoughts
pick up my keys, to open your doors.
Graham Kings (1953- ), The Prayer Stool.
