Engaged in Le Milieu Divin, Lent...(2002)

poem by Peter Menkin

---

In the habital zone
where I know God's presence
I recognize
the outer darkness--

transfigure is the season's
introduction
to Le Milieu Divin.

Precarious habitation,
there is the greater world
where Christ is loci
even in travails
ordinary,
extraordinary.

We are of substance
existance, created believing--
seeking. Fill my half
heartedness; unbend me.

Before my trials of devil
and insidious evil--the darkness.
You are centerpoint even of my despair
inside me, outside entering
transformation.

May I show penitance, everlasting
one adored. Lent begins.
