Glorious Truths

Tossing and turning in Whitman’s grass, Breathing every fervent loving sensate, My deliberate doubts, you may bypass, To obey the certainty of Christian dictates. To some, my probes attack settled law, My queries are grounds for execution. I don’t mind those symbols wedged in your craw. I just seek truths instead of words well spun. Truth travels in a continuous passage, Skipping along in temporary stays. Its spice, I briefly taste like sausage, I recall the tactile surges from hand plays. Truth is the process of honesty, It lacks fixation with fixed positions. The honest house supplies the best prophecy, The honest road brings wondrous conditions. In my days remaining, I shall sing of myself, No better or worse than anyone dwelling here, Some believing in numbers have called me BELF. But life never neatly resolves with answers so sure. Resplendent quest, glorious uncertainty of rapture, You are my radiant God, my unknowable religion. Absent your pursuit, I live without color or texture. With your passionate affection, I’m fully alive, in motion.
