Mothers of victims
Sitting in courtrooms crying
Like Jesus’ mother.
Witnesses from jail
Spilling what they know or don’t
Hoping for freedom

Friedrich Nietzsche said, “The essential thing ‘in heaven and earth’ is… that there should be long obedience in the same direction; there thereby results, and has always resulted in the long run, something which has made life worth living.” Eugene Peterson wrote a book entitled A Long Obedience in the Same Direction, and as someone who has served in the same city since 1982, I claim that as my something that makes life worth living.
