‘Even less’

Even less


Christmas to be able
to celebrate,
and Easter too,
is

to learn
confess

Lamb
to be
of body and limb
to no expect even in the power.

No more is needed.

If it had to be
still less than this;
to only

to learn
to belong:

hopeless
to be loved.

Also on behalf of the board of the Jan XVII Foundation, I wish you a Merry Christmas, also in the new year.
