Saul


The Bible says nothing
About a horse

It might have been
A camel

Or even his own feet
That brought him

To the place
Of his falling down

Into the dazzling belly
Of heaven’s Sonlight

That cast him forth
Three days later

Like Jonah from the whale
A baby from the womb
Like Jesus from the tomb

Thrust into the opposite
Of all he had ever been

New identity
New life

No longer Saul
