Shrink

What if my fears have been misplaced
and Them are a Big Brother
under a God we can trust?
Like king Saul (David's kin from another mother)

In what ways could this be a Jubilee Year?
These changes fast becoming formal
How can I stay grounded and centred,
as we adjust to the new normal?

I refuse to be paralyzed
I will stay hopeful and transform
Must create new possibilities
in communion with my God

So then how can I serve love
and yet maintain my fire?
To what goals in this new structure
might I aspire?

Or should I acquiesce
and let go of my dreams
Take the form of a slave
and survive behind the scenes

The ways I used to struggle for good
now longer apply
It's time for me to disappear
and become a regular guy
