The Sea Inside
by Jonathan Goff
The Sea Inside
When the earth was formless and void,
what did You see?

Surrounded by a landscape of white silence.

Reaching up to a sky of muted gray,
Their limbs bare, stripped of life,
Yet beautiful in their stark simplicity.

craving the arrival of shade
to offer rest for their tired talons.

The Desk
by Jonathan Goff
The Desk
The Desk.
Seasoned, weathered, worn–
the smell of old wood and new finish.
Stains betray the depth of his grace,
how long he has lived, how wise is his brow!
The Desk is a solid rock with space inside–
for broken hearts and thriving minds,
