+--------A Refugee's Solace; The Thoughts Of Elijah Eating Bread And Meat Donated By Ravens

When everything else
betrays, (fleeing) I have found
consonance with Nature-
brother raven, sister brook,
Mother breeze to assuage,
transcend strife’s tyranny.
To pare down passions of
pagan social politics. Murmuring
in hushed tones beside waters
beneath Gilead’s moon’s glow,
majesty of her sunrises: that in
man’s love of God alone is
his soul’s meat, bread, safety

------1 King 17:1-6
And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except at my word.”
Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “Get away from here and turn eastward, and hide by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan. And it will be that you shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there.” So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and stayed by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan. The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening; and he drank from the brook.
