Hunger
Somehow I have to make sure that each day
I am Hungry,
that there's room inside of me for another presence.
When I am filled with
my own opinions, ideas, righteousness, superiority, or sufficiency,
I am a world unto myself and there is no room for "another."
When I can empty myself,
create a vacuum within me,
God fills it,
for God, as nature, abhors a vacuum.
Despite Church attempts to define who is and who is not worthy
to receive communion,
the only ticket or true prerequisite for coming to Eucharist is
Hunger.
And most often, sinners like me
are hungrier than the "saints" who would exclude us.
