+------The Light Of Second Chances; Paul's Thoughts In Damascus (Without Food or Water) 

What if…your heart was born
blind, Polyphemus afflicted
by Odysseus’s wooden stake
in his (only) eye. Your mind
conceived, nursed under breasts
of false maxims…everything
Gamaliel taught distorted by Pride’s
soul’s ears malformed? Because
the voice I just heard… “Saul, Saul,
why are you persecuting me”…
still haunts, reverberates damning.
What if Isaiah’s prophecies, Messianic,
have already come true? Dismissed
by me; Hidden in plain sight. My folded
arms laced with tears, wrapped around
knees bent. In regret's dark embrace.



------Acts 8:15-19
But the Lord said to Ananias, “Go! This man is my chosen instrument to proclaim my name to the Gentiles and their kings and to the people of Israel. I will show him how much he must suffer for my name.” Then Ananias went to the house and entered it. Placing his hands on Saul, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord—Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here—has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Immediately, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and he could see again. He got up and was baptized, and after taking some food, he regained his strength.
