Chelan Harkin: Just As Holy

Just As Holy

The stars are pieces
of God's broken heart.
 
Because she didn't scurry
to clean them up quickly
make the universe all tidy for its company
and just let herself be
a shimmering, perfect mess
 
the poetry of worlds
was allowed to bloom.
Do the same with your heart,
dear one.
 
Your process is just
as holy.
 
— Chelan Harkin
From Susceptible To Light
