+--------Taylor Swift: Tony Conti's Waters Of Meribah
Taylor, my singleness is a
motley assemblage of Hebrew
transients, robes of soul chafed from
a frenzied flight for heart freedom, fleeing
(hopeful: Red Sea of the past riven)
whip-scars’ terror of girls’ dating
refusals, from overbearing loneliness
like scoffing taskmasters in Egypt
with bronzed skin, black eyes of
despairing, reptilian. Always thirsty,
famished – fools crying for a date as
for Egypt’s delusions: grain, figs,
grapevines, pomegranates as affections
from girls who are never coming back;
and Im agitated. Oh babes and you
know you are, always will be, my rock.
Your blonde hair, blue eyes, sweet voice
my solid lover’s foundation. Green tea
with you at Starbucks a miracle wood
staff of glee in hand, a kiss from your
soft lips a double strike of my joy on stone,
zeal thrusted. If you smiled at me, gushing
water satisfying my deepest longings... I'd
have strength for love's march to Canaan.
------Numbers 20:2-13
Now there was no water for the community, and the people gathered in opposition to Moses and Aaron. They quarreled with Moses and said, “If only we had died when our brothers fell dead before the Lord! Why did you bring the Lord’s community into this wilderness, that we and our livestock should die here? Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to this terrible place? It has no grain or figs, grapevines or pomegranates. And there is no water to drink!” Moses and Aaron went from the assembly to the entrance to the tent of meeting and fell facedown, and the glory of the Lord appeared to them. The Lord said to Moses, “Take the staff, and you and your brother Aaron gather the assembly together. Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water. You will bring water out of the rock for the community so they and their livestock can drink.” So Moses took the staff from the Lord’s presence, just as he commanded him. He and Aaron gathered the assembly together in front of the rock and Moses said to them, “Listen, you rebels, must we bring you water out of this rock?” Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff. Water gushed out, and the community and their livestock drank. But the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not trust in me enough to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this community into the land I give them.” These were the waters of Meribah, where the Israelites quarreled with the Lord and where he was proved holy among them.
