I am a verb, not a noun. My former existence was a wave on the sea of time and space, till I broke on the sands of mass and matter. Soon I will return on the under-tow of the cosmic depths...I am surf....a verb...
A seagull saw me, way out a sea and flattered me with every curve and curl of his wing...Jonathan, yea, that was his name..

A wave like a verb? Who is subject then? Or the reason? The wing of a seagull?
Un-predicated spirit is the subject, form before and after function.
Shroeder had a cat, I have a bird that sees a reflection of himself in the sea, the wave, his wing...
"I am a life-long traveler to my interior.
But life deserves its obscurity and its sparrow.
I was not born to know that I will die, but to love the innermost of God's shadows.
Beauty leads me to the beautiful,
and I love your love unchained by its essence and attributes.
I am my own double."Mahmoud Darwish

Very good. "I" is a verb, not a noun. Profound idea.
//Who is subject then?//
That was my first reaction, exactly. The answer could be: There is no subject.
That's exactly what I was telling a friend, the other, after I was asked a question about the meaning of life.
There is no subject, I said. It's all object.
But now I'll be considering that it could all be "a verb," because "I is All."
And "I is," or (in Armenian) "E" which means: "He Is," which is one of their names for God or "All What Is."
You might remember what I once wrote: "What Is, Is."
In the end, the two words could be formally put together, and made into: "What-Is" meaning the Existence, where "Existence" translates into "The action of existing" instead of "The state of existence."
"Being" is what it's all about.
Am I so dumbed down by my work that I forgot to mention right away that Christ = The Verb ...?
I'm just recalling the basics of theology, and not trying to push any faith, but you know that :-).
Because this poem has some background from Darwish's "Noun Sentence" and you tell here that Christ is the verb, I should quote:"We were kindhearted and self-denying even without the teachings of Jesus."
Mahmoud Darwish from Mural
Existence is temporary
All things must pass
Pass away...
We are here today
Who was here yesterday?
What will be here tomorrow?
Only faces change
Doing the same thing
Until...
Age reveals brief time for each,
Traveling upon life's journey.
As one comes to and end,
Another begins...
Where I goes determines
Who I is
What I has done
Is destiny
Tongues speak
Minds search
Debates continue
History confirms
Basic outlines of life
Never really change...
Just the faces in the game.
Over and Over again
Looking for the answer to I
God said I Am
When asked his name.
Self denying with kind hearts,
Give...
Greed with hearts of stone,
Take...
Is the noun I in the middle?
