Repossessing the Kingdom of Edom
We invited the prophet for supper
because we were not afraid
The Father told us about Obadiah
about his warnings of destruction
as a consequence of action
Having become students of the living
and of the dead (and especially of those
capable or rising again) naturally we
were anxious in making a connection
Although we possessed many questions
the most obvious rallied around
his postmodern interpretation
to the Day of the Lord
