The Insistence of Beauty

      The Insistence of Beauty

                                                          Feel the feathers of fire light up your face;

                                                     While tracing tracks of smoke shadows,

                                                      Incense suffices, offered in daily sacrifice.

                                                      Water bubbles ripple effect, flowing from

                                                       inception crown infinite inspiration, having

                                                       Lighten the path with twin suns.

                                                       Solomon's wisdom.

                                                       Brighter than a halo, shorter than a sigh.

                                                       Tears of pillar, behind each footstep, come

                                                        understanding.  

                                                        A journey between self-awareness; and

                                                        the brightest sadness, toward an anonymous

                                                        fallen monument, compel greatness.

                                                        To the calling of the human spirit,

                                                        A mirror power divine. Well, running over.

                                                        Meditation reveals itself. Selah….

                                                        The beauty found knelt at the altar retreat,

                                                        serenading victorious                                               

                                                        Yahweh! Yahweh!....

                                                        Your Majesty rains down fire;

                                                        An all-consuming, purifying glister

                                                        firm foundation.

                                                        Even the half-moon by night obeys.

                                                        Watch the stars sneeze, 

                                                        As your kingdom comes.
