This Good Friday I want to share my favourite poem by Jay Hulme, a queer, trans and Christian poet God as a carpenter. Jesus as a familiar to wood and nail. The beauty of all Creation evident and true even in pain.

Clouds Cannot Cover Us by Jay Hulme

goodreads

A collection of YA poetry.

Mod opinion: I hadn't heard of this one and I rarely read poetry so I probably won't read this one, but I really like the cover.

This Body - by Jay Hulme, The Backwater Sermons

This body is a cathedral holier than those made by human hands. This body is a cathedral holier than those made by human hands. This boy is undergoing a personal reformation. This body is enduring a modern iconoclasm. This body is being remade in a new shade of beauty. This body is altering its archways. This body is reverting old changes. This body is fixing the damage. This body is filled with prayer. This body holds relics of saints. This body turns sunlight to statuary. This body is built out of bondage. This body is still a cathedral. This body is still holy. This body is filled with worship. We cense these shattered bones.
