This is where you will find me exposed, angry, embarrassing, plaintive, childish, inane, blemished, bemused and broken. Why do I invite you in? To drink your wine. To share your bed. To paint your walls. To touch your skin. To crack your shell. To steal your eyes. And return them open. To invade your prayers. To increase your song. To expose you to my madness and promise. To pour oil and wine on your wounds. To fail in all the above endeavors. Now it’s your turn.

WILD MEN AND FIRE WOMEN
All the saints are gathered tonight
Wild men and fire women
More holy unknowns than known’s
Let’s go wild, catch fire, dance the fool’s day
Breathe in the sacred smells, both sweet and stale
Sing, shout, the songs of yearning and desire
Kiss faces illuminated by grace
Their thankful eyes turned toward heaven
Let’s move to God’s great symphonic rhythm
In love with all the wild men
And the fire women
Still burning, Francesco
