O Grace Thou Art

O Grace thou Art !!!!

like the smallest bells suddenly ringing  
in my ashen-ed grey hallways
 
a swirl of brilliant breeze 
light splashes in ...crests over the sills
blinding glory

startled awake
my eyes open

overwhelmed once again...weak with us...ours alone
                                                      an ethereal longing that the angels watch
eternity...light sounds explosions of mercury and sulfur and satin lace and mir
so much mir...the golden blur of it

mountains rising and water falls
thunderous 
monumental climb SKYWARD

our hands and minds are dripping
blending
a cataclysmic swirl 
we are black whole that holds all things...is all things and is nothing at all
absolute nothing.....fiercely pulsing 

the quasar ...............has awakened 

The shift is palpable
as if I can reach out .....holding hands right through the ether of now

my heart ...my heart....explodes with the purest metal
desert 
becomes oceanic tidal pools
swelling over the dams 
mere paper mache'
constructed in the silence of before and after

I can....I can...hear you

your forehead is leaned 
fierce and gentle...against my own
your breath is labored
but we are silent in our most sacred communion
our
eternal reverie...we worship 
in the house of the lord once more

One true thing

so for you
the slimming ........lightening  
I will
till death 
which can never part
one from the other can not be
