He

                       He

The way he makes us feel is like the vaults

In high cathedrals.  High and higher still

They rise within our hearts with all their faults

Though far above us like a sacred grille

He sets out forms for irises and souls.

The complications of the stonework cry

Out.  Holier than hidden Dead Sea Scrolls,

Designs spread out as if against a sky

In heaven tell us more than we can know

From words and hymns.  Complexity of stone

And shape is lit up by an eldritch glow

As if from relics of a saint’s bleached bone.

..If we could love his preternatural eyes

….Eternity would makes us all unwise.
