quiet days are hardest.
the world isn't changing
on quiet days.
the prophet walks slowly.
and he wonders
why he's a prophet.
days of calamity,
he gets to see Almighty Power.
days of exhilaration,
he feels the Spirit moving inside.
but quiet days,
nothing.
no stirring wind,
no rising challenge.
why is he a prophet
on quiet days?
the world does not need quiet days.
but prophets do.
we need today
to make us need Him.
