The View of the Church of Saint-Paul de Mausole, by Vincent van Gogh 1889
The sky
reflected in the harvested field
that laps up against the walls of
the Church of Saint-Paul de Mausole.
A surge of incriminating waves
upon which the Word is cast,
its roots in the church
that’s defined in outline
against the random aspect of the sky:
a nirvana,
or heaven –
not to be dictated to
by mere mortals.
A modest harvest
loosely stacked against the outer wall
representing the total sum of souls
still hoping for salvation,
but excluded
from the church’s close.
You shall reap what you sow.
