If you will not love your enemy
This line will never move
Interrupt the pattern
Break the circle of pain
If you will not love your enemy
The horizon just looks the same
Interrupt the pattern
Be unexpected…transfigure and change
If you will not love your enemy
The words on the Mount crumble away
Interrupt your fear
Overthrow the tyrant in the mirror
Hear the voice in the desert,
“Come and join me,
I can help you love your enemy”
This is the final revolution that turns
The world and the universe upside down:
“I made an enemy of enmity
And buried it in the ground”
Eric H Janzen
