I am an empty vessel, said Blue,
plenty of room for God.
Also room for students —
Space.
We recede so creativity happens
no place empty of God, Blue said,
the vessel cannot be too empty
but it can be too full.
No room for God in a vessel too full,
Blue said.
So forget the activities of expressed leadership.
Preside elsewhere —
none of our story could have happened
without you.
