A sign of faith (ip inspired)

In a smoky, ceiling,
lit thorugh stainedglass,
although mostly dark,
just candlelit, echoes a
slow pipe-organs song.

Now see a line fall down
almost skeletol skinny, tall
a figure brighter than the
flame light, yet shadowed
socket eyes & shaded ribs.

A deep thunderi voice names
a second human voice agrees
sounding sure, yet also afraid
speak to the human form with
shoulderblades arching over.

Very atmospheric and spooky, I think you could lose a comma or two in the first verse, they stop the flow. having said that, the first verse is my favourite for the beautiful words you use.

Is the deep thundering voice from within, I like the imagry on the last line, reminds me of someone hunched over with roserrybeads listening to God,
