"I Baptize Thee..."
Am I so entitled,
is it there in my name
Is the water redemptive,
my salvation proclaimed
Does the Rock Of All Ages
line my river with stone
Are the words mine by birthright,
not borrowed or loaned
Is all time but a servant,
flowing inward to send
A beginning eternal,
whilst slaying the end
Is my legacy written
in the current redeemed
As the present rechristens
-my baptismal name freed
(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2019)

Are the words mine by birthright,

Is all time but a servant,
flowing inward to send
A beginning eternal,
whilst slaying the end
Is my legacy written
in the current redeemed
As the present rechristens
-my baptismal name freed
