without his comfort
void of true morning air
lacking brilliance, I believe
especially, when he’s not there
wait upon contentment
thrive within the verse
know he’s in the shadows
and life could be so much worse

Absence is a theme in a Hellenistic Jewish Philosopher from Asia Minor who I follow closely. He wrote two letters to a church in Corinth in the early first century. In the second of the two, absence (and what it means) is a big theme. I like wrestling with absence.

Love it. And I think you’re talking about the sun…in a way. See, he’s not there, and now the storms are moving in, which is so vexing, it’s an interest.
