Crowning Act

The bride in abeyance Since the crowning act was done But in eternal ignorance Reflected sight with beasts and sun And so the atom split The rib brought recognition; failed Though to spark and lit The silhouette behind the flimsy veil. Image to image faced The jubilant cry of dim-lighted man And passion never traced Beyond the deisre, will no understand Love makes all things one Christ the man, God in man as unity Bride where the church began Mankind as church, the bridal mystery Until the consummation Second coming and the rapture of wisdom Desire in sublimation The temple untented in the new kingdom O this ejaculated news The ****** of Eden explored and requited Love waits for love to choose Surrender like a gospel compelled and excited.
