Send me someone with a glowing face.
I think I'd probably listen.
They would tell me what to look for,
and where,
and I would go.
Not someone with a scheme.
Their face would not shine,
though they may oil it up
to get after the effect.
One anointing is different from another,
however,
and I think it would be possible to tell.

Blinding light that gives sight,
descend upon my nighttime,
and filter my days.

(Exodus 34:29-35, Psalm 99, Matthew 12:33-46)
