MAUNDY

God, I believe in the big fish

that swallowed the man

and spit him back out.

I believe you were a man

with a hammer in your hands

every summer until you were thirty.

I know when you showed up late

to the party, water from the well

became the best wine of the night.

God, what do you think about

rent this month? Will you send

me fishing at Paremata for gold coins?

God, I believe in the woman

who hemorrhaged blood for twelve years

and was healed as soon as she touched you.

I believe you were the man

who slept through a great storm at sea

and cooked fish over fire for breakfast.

I know the rich man left sad when you told

him to sell everything, and when the desperate

came hungry, you fed them.

God, what do you think about me getting a coffee

from Vic Books with my last Edmund Hillary?

Who is it you hoped I would be?
