But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved-and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus
-Ephesians 2:4-6
Misery loves company
in that house where they live
creatures of all sizes and shapes
their keeper keeps them close
grooms them under careful lenses
they grow big
they grow tall
more, more! they demand
the keeper greedily gives
they snap and nip affectionately
the keeper lovingly reopens each gash
that summer, it came on a heat wave
like a growth spurt, the hot spell stirred them up
each one swelled to fill the roof
it gave their keeper such delight
his pets, his darlings—they grow so well
and his cuts deepened with pomp
when the sun shines through the windows
every etch glitters
and all is well where keeper and creatures live
mossyrocks asked: hello earns
hello. keep up the creepy cat pictures.
