I tried but can’t find refuge in the angle
I walk the mystery of the curve
– Sam Phillips, "Five Colors"

Tell all the Truth but tell it slant –
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm delight
The Truth’s superb surprise
– Emily Dickinson

Language – given to us to glorify God, to receive the revelation of God, to witness to the truth of God, to offer praise to God – is constantly at risk. Too often the living Word is desiccated into propositional cadavers, then sorted into exegetical specimens in bottles of formaldehyde. We end up with godtalk.
–Eugene Peterson

I know right!
