I AM THAT I AM




YESHUA


How did you know to come to me?
How did you come to know me?

I was lost in my losing streak
Breezing through the evening breeze
Throwing snake eyes to the curb
Hugging  shoulders on a curve
I thought I knew a thing or two
I thought I knew a thing or two
All I had were piles of leaves  
& pages filled with words 

No this, no that, no here, no there
It’s all from nothing & everywhere
So said the flame in the midnight dark
So said the rooster in the sunny park
Amazing grace to save the wretch
The sun shade driver of the stretch
Back seat in the electric easy chair
A shooting star with thunder in my heart

How did you know to come to me?
How did you come to know me?

Jesus in the Garden, the Beatles on the roof
Brothers in the brotherhood... Sisters too
Surfing, soaring, piercing; the flowers drink the sun
 & petals falling from the lotus, falling one by one 
Touchstones in a flower bed of jewels
& so it’s key holes in a darkened school
A City in the Mountains... Katmandu
& then the salmon starts its run

How did you know to come to me?
How did you come to know me?
