Resurrection
Amos 5:8 and Psalm 137:11-12
A darkness came upon him, darker than
His curls. Towards the earth like them it fell
But with a weight to test his heart, this man,
His heart and core and guts*. A note from Hell
Was written secretly upon his son’s
Sweet brain and when the universe revealed
That message, Matthew died. The devil’s guns
Shot glory out of skies, with moons repealed,
Suns blasted black, and constellations closed.
Charles turned to Him Who made Orion’s stars,
The Seven Stars, the God Who is supposed
To raise up souls and wipe away their scars.
This same Jehovah took him into light
That turns deep nights to dayspring, black to bright.
