the One and Only

see there's this story in the Good Book you know
maybe you've even heard how it goes when this
prophet well he'd just challenged these bad dudes
to a sacrifice duel the one where if your gods are real
then you don't need a match and the dudes cried
and cried but no fire came then the prophet poured
it on and on and on and the wet sacrifice went up
like a barbecue on the fourth so he should be feeling
pretty high and then the wicked queen not the faerie
tale one but even worse because she was real and
nasty she sends the prophet a text telling him it's
over and she's gunning for him and he flips and
runs to the desert yep same prophet that just saw a
bull en flambe he runs like a scared doggy and he
says to the Big Guy yep same Guy that roasted the
offering he says it's over i'm stuck and You might
as well take me Home because after all she's coming
for me and i guess he kinda forgot as we all do Who
he was talking to 'cause it's easy in our world to see
the bad guys and forget and so the prophet sleeps and
gets angel dinners twice and then super strength to
hike to a meeting at a desert mountain and first comes
hurricane then comes earthquake then comes fire but
the Big Guy is silent until a quiet breeze and the
prophet knows this is it and he hears the question by
the One and Only who already knows the answer
and so he's honest about how sucky life is and how
he's pretty sure no one can get him out and it's all
just not fair and then he hears what he needs to hear
about what to do and how he's not alone but really
what all that 40+ days and the breeze coming up
tenderly has been is a reminder that even when i'm
a forgetful wimp He cares and hears and the only safe
place is trusting in the One and Only no matter what
