You May Call Me Jacob

You may call me Jacob
wrestling

wrestling to know
what His finger traces out
how this flesh was meant 
to house this spirit
what purpose 
thick quiet serves
to find a trail broken 
by God Himself 
for my feet to follow

the curious thing 
about this kind of wrestling 
is that I find myself
in the arms of God

clasped 
encircled
held
known
beloved

and I have no fight left.
