I can feel it in my fingers,

in the toes of my feet

like a tingle - electric -

pins and needles without 

the numb feeling...

Some strange and excitable

beautiful thing rising up 

in me to meet with its own

- God reaching for God -

throughout me is a shaking

as my soul shifts restlessly

and I become clumsy,

ill prepared for

the wave that overcomes 

my body and being,

a power so much greater 

than my understanding thereof

and I fall to my knees,

whisper feverish prayers

to my God. My God!
