Reason

The Reason Faith – amid the silent rancor falls Determined ‘neath the Son. All’s unsheathed, revealed sterling Bright – a sacrifice of all remorse; All sanctity – all that is given – For fault lies elsewhere this day: that’s a small Succinct fact; pray more for your luck, For your seeming retribution’s offering: the One you give so willingly, so brightly, so Determined in the flow where there is nowhere Left to go; boxed in this July are you so close To God’s intervention – he shakes the earth and Skies to loose you from illusion from pain, From all that remains a muddle in sound and fury; A sudden season’s storm, in evening’s rest. Here is where it lies: for within this strain to reign Supreme, the arms of kings will summon still the Summer, the wind, the leaves upon the water… All dances now before you, before your will undone- A sum total of all that calls to order, All to kingdom come, All to cast asunder, All to be undone.
