the descending way is the path to life
following the time-worn footprints
of the one who stepped down from his throne
to make his home among the broken
and invites us to do the same
will i choose his downward way
will i lay aside privilege and preference
will i take the low road into obscurity
will i embrace humiliation and suffering
so i can become one with the forsaken
will i stop demanding to be
the absolute center of the universe
i the sun and they merely the planets
revolving around my own persona
can i shift from being the sun to becoming pluto
can i make the move from subject to object
will i become a small part of his glorious universe
revolving around the one who is the true center
he the son and i just a dwarf planet
on the outer fringes beyond neptune
held in a beautiful orbit by the
gravitational pull of divine love
he is offering me an invitation
to become less rather than more
but will i accept his call
or will i continue to fool myself
into believing that i am
the center of gravity
