sacred is the given

6/5/2019

 

​sacred are the clean teeth
sacred the cleaning and the cleaner

sacred are the wiped lips
sacred the wiping and the wiped

for sacred is the given
the toothpaste and the toothbrushes
the tissues and the trifles

sacred, here and now
is the given
sacred the giver

for humble lips
and humble teeth
shall utter sacred words
of goodness 
and of wisdom
