Signs of his touch
marks of the Potter’s hand
his efforts recorded
written on the flesh, the tissue
on this flawed vessel
Places where imperfections
worked out by the molding
sculpting of his knowing, working
the clay, slowly, giving to His will
Reformed by the touch, loving touch
the healing of brokenness
made useful, ever needing more
of the Potter’s hands, his marks on me
