Glacier

God is glacier against our feet planted in defiance
Slowly but persistently He moves
Incessant
Relentless
Omnipotent
Gravity scraping tendrils of obstinacy
Eroding the barnacles of indifference
Dissolving the lumps of pride
A snap or quake
Until we reach the waters
Cleansed of till
Worthy and whole
