Erratically-Tossed Sequins

Erratically-tossed sequins
   Mark the places of night's stadium -
A netherworld of colored stones
   For the spry flights of cherubim -

And Jehovah - madman or genius -
   I cannot quite discern -
Overlays time upon us
   And I'm a lowly spectator.

One angel keeps an amethyst -
   Ignoring an agate - then ruby;
I do wonder if by chance
   There's a rock somewhere for me ...
