No Exodus

I have a heart like Pharaoh's,
One requiring repeated
Hardening to carry out
God's redundant lesson plans.
Just when I'm ready to go,
Life reminds me how intense
Its passion to carry on,

And I pass over the chance.
Clouds obscure a desert moon
On winter nights warm as spring.
Time for more blood and locusts
To soften me up again.
Your body's failing. Let go.
Then starlight hardens my heart.
