just because you fell in love with the river doesn’t mean you must feed it your bones.

It hurts all over. In the soul. In the God-place. / Spleen and rib. Blood and hearth.

I say what we all must, eventually, admit

when we are in love. The river remains mute.

It takes nothing. Offers nothing.

We owe a debt to third world women theologians who have noticed the similarities between Mary’s life and the lives of so many poor women even today. Giving birth in a homeless situation; fleeing as a refugee with your baby to a strange land to escape being killed by military action; losing a child to unjust execution by the state; our newspapers yield up these icons of suffering even today. Mary is sister to the marginalized women who live unchronicled lives in oppressive situations. It does her no honor to rip her out of her conflictual, dangerous historical circumstances and transmute her into an icon of a peaceful, middle-class life robed in royal blue.

Sister Elizabeth Johnson, “Mary of Nazareth: Friend of God and Prophet”  (via lesgardenias)
